about 5Rhythms and this class
Our bodies are full of the wisdom and creativity needed to move through these changing and often challenging times. This class is a space to discover, stretch, release, energise, shake off, lighten, and land inside your body. The 5rhythms is a simple yet profound practice that helps us move from one state of being to another with no dance experience needed - all that is required is a willingness and a curiosity to set your body in motion. The rest will be revealed.
5Rhythms can be experienced by anyone regardless of their physical limitations. There are no specific moves to learn and dancers can participate at their own pace, within their own capacity to move.
Newcomers are always welcome!
Class Protocols
This is a space to practice 5Rhythms only. While the essence and spirit of other practices are welcome their form is not. The invitation is to bring that form into movement.
This is a drug, plant medicine and alcohol free space
No phones, shazam, photography or video during the dance. Please turn off notifications and ringer for the duration of the class.
Let's keep conversation off the dancefloor – please communicate with movement
Take responsibility for your own body and move within your capacity to move
No spectators, only participators.
Please listen out for others' boundaries and respect everyone's choice for connection in the dance. We are free to choose with who, when and how we'd like to connect, changing our minds if necessary. No touch without consent.
Tops on please: Gabrielle Roth, who created this practice, invited us to sweat our prayers, she said sweat is holy & whilst we agree with that we also would prefer you kept your holy sweat to yourself! so please no bare chests on the dance floor, your invited to dance with any feelings & sensations you have around keeping your top on, thank you
This practice is about learning to connect with yourself, the other and the group. With that in mind particularly the last of these three please stay for the closing circle. If you have to leave before please check in with the facilitator before you go.
We look forward to welcoming you in the dance.
