• FLOWING – an evolving continuum of movement, grounded in the fluidity of our weight.
• STACCATO – the teacher of loving boundaries, outward expression and edges.
• CHAOS – a surrender, letting go and releasing all that keeps us from knowing our true self.
• LYRICAL – the effortless rhythm of trance where we ride on the music of our soul.
• STILLNESS – a state of vibrant presence where we are completely full and empty.
A deepening of The Wave. Here we bring conscious movement to the patterns of inertia, tension, confusion, spaciness and catatonia. By moving with these states we gain awareness of them and how they show up in our lives. By being present with them and moving to a lighter place we are able to create new pathways of choice when they appear in our lives.
In this workshop we spend time exploring each of the 5Rhythms individually. With each rhythm a new teaching enters our being and a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us emerges. The knowledge that is gained through the dance gives us the ability to respond to others and the world around us from a greater place of authenticity.
Connect with your Essence by releasing your mind and responding to the inner calling of your body. Allow the vibrant energy that lays underneath the mind chatter of right and wrong to move with us. In this weekend is an exploration of The Wave with awareness of the energy that supports our movement through each of the 5Rhythms - Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness.
An intensive study into the Chakras, through the use of the 5Rhythms™ map. Here you have the potential to connect into each energy center, exploring its many aspects and discovering the quality and quantity of the energy that is present there. By giving movement, breath and attention to each chakra we will access the role each plays in our lives and our relationships.
We will get to know the vibrancy of our being from the inside out.
5Rhythms:
The 5Rhythms are a map for the journey to an ecstatic level of consciousness, the unification of body, heart, mind, soul and spirit. “Freeing the body to experience the power of being. Expressing the heart to experience the power of loving. Emptying the mind to experience the power of self-knowledge. Awakening the soul to experience the power of seeing, Embodying the spirit to experience the power of healing”.
