Abstract This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the eurythmic music learning model on the gross motor development of children with Down syndrome at SLB Negeri Ciamis. The approach used is Single Subject Research (SSR) with A-B-A' design. The subject under study is a child with Down syndrome who has weak motor control but has an interest in music. Data was collected by means of a test based on the stages of eurythmic learning, namely imitating and responding to rhythm through body movements based on slow, medium and fast tempo songs. The data obtained were analyzed through descriptive statistics displayed in line graphs. The components analyzed are the analysis under conditions and between conditions. Based on the results of the study, it was shown that there was an increase in the use of the eurythmic learning model on gross motor development in imitating and responding to tone. There is a score in the baseline-1 phase (A) there are 3 sessions with a frequency of 59,59,59. In the intervention phase (B) there were 5 sessions with a score of 61, 65. 68, 76,76. While in the Baseline-2 phase, there were 3 sessions with an achievement score of 77, 79, 80. According to the data, it is known that this learning model has a positive effect. It can be shown in the level change of 0% in the baseline-1 phase, 14% in the intervention phase and 3% in the baseline-2 phase. According to the data that has been obtained, the overall use of the eurythmic music learning model is effective for the gross motor development of children with Down syndrome.
