Dancing the Great Turning: Reclaiming aliveness through 5Rhythms® & The Work That Reconnects

In overwhelming times, many of us learn to disconnect from the body in order to keep going. This workshop is an invitation to reclaim aliveness through movement, collective ritual, and the wisdom of the body.
Co-facilitated by Caitlin Elsaesser and Jenny Fahy, this workshop brings together an international facilitation team grounded in dance, imagination, and collective healing.

Rooted in Joanna Macy’s Work That Reconnects and the moving meditation practice of 5Rhythms®, through dance, reflection, and shared practice, we will make space for sorrow as part of love for the world—and open pathways for vitality to return.

Guided by the 5Rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness, we’ll move through the spiral of the Work That Reconnects: grounding in gratitude, honoring our heartache for the world, opening to new ways of seeing, and listening for what is ours to do. Through movement, embodied listening, and collective inquiry, we’ll explore the body as a pathway back—a way to soften numbness, release frozen energy, and reconnect with life force.
