Anja Mutic, Ever the Nomad: The Surprise of the 5RhythmsTravel Writer

“For two entire hours, I dance. And I travel, from country to continent, from city to hamlet. A journey with no map, no itinerary and no destination. Despite the random wanderings of my body, the rhythm roots it into this very moment. There is no other place I’d rather be. There is no place I want to go. My wanderlust, quenched.”

Chantey Dayal, 5Rhythms dance & Letting go to processArtist, chanteydayal.com

“I love to dance the 5Rhythms… it gets me out of my own way. It only asks me to show up and in return, holds me in letting go. Dancing allows me into an artistic process without attachment to outcome. This leads to strokes, tones, and feelings pouring out onto the canvas like the journey of a song. It opens my hands up to possibility and investigation. 5Rhythms is a gateway that allows me to paint boldly on the canvas and to discover all the living parts of my creative self.”

Nilaya Sabnis, Photographer+DancerProfessional Dancer

“It's exhilarating, like being on a rollercoaster with your eyes closed. At some point you get to just stand back and be fascinated by your own dance coming out of you.”

CynPractice Manager & MA

“I work for a doctor and she prescribes it to her patients...It has given me the strength to move forward in my life and a whole new community that is open, accepting and fun!”

Waves move in patterns. Patterns move in rhythms. A human being is just that
—energy, waves, patterns, rhythms. Nothing more. Nothing less. A dance.

5Rhythms transcends dance—movement is the medicine, the meditation
and the metaphor. Together we peel back layers, lay our masks down,
and dance till we disappear.

The 5Rhythms are a map to everywhere we want to go—inner, outer,
forward, back, physical, emotional, intellectual—they reconnect us to the
wisdom of our bodies and unleash movement’s dynamic healing power.

Do you have the discipline to be a free spirit?

The fastest way to still the mind is to move the body.
