MIRRORS (residential) FULLY BOOKED

"What the ego wants is tiny compared to what the soul wants, and there comes a point when we recognize this, and we surrender to soul."  Marion Woodman

In the 5Rhythm® practice, we are constantly moving into the most spontaneous, energetic, expansive qualities of our being. In the Mirrors level of the practice, we are given the tools to identify the relentless loop of our own favorite head-trips and the inevitable situations they create. We tear off masks, sheds skins, reinventing ourselves effortlessly, learning to witness our own drama, its roots and rituals. We enter the crowd of characters that dominate our stage whether servant or star, doormat or dreamer, realist or rebel, mystic or manipulator—all divas, and begin to watch them sabotage our funky, fiery, free-spirit. Sometimes we have to stop the world and wonder: which part of me is using my hands, my feet, my eyes, my ears, and most importantly my mouth today?

We all know what it feels like to get stuck, to lose our groove, to get trapped in our heads and cut off from our hearts Seeking the answer within awakens the witness and learning to witness our own melodrama is our saving grace.

5 DIRECTIONS with David Juriansz

 Join visiting teacher David Juriansz (Australia) for a day long 5Rhythms workshop.

5 DIRECTIONS

“If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.” Lao Tzu

This way. That way. Another way.

Modern life. It’s humbling, when so often, so many of us, fortunate, privileged humans find we have so much choice and yet can become paralysed.

Life gets pretty mental at times. That’s one reason why I do the dance practice called 5Rhythms®. To get out of my head. 5Rhythms founder Gabrielle Roth called the overwhelmed mind ‘the chat room’ and I know I’m not the only one who can fall for the trap of hanging out in this uncomfortable, disconnected place.

In the dance, we trust our body to lead the way because it’s hard to make clear choices when we are heady, cluttered and ungrounded. Dancing Waves helps the nervous system to settle so we can tap into a whole body experience of listening for what we need. Clear direction can start to emerge.

This workshop will explore 5 directions within the 5Rhythms map. 5 simple, physical, invigorating approaches to expanding our movement repertoire and enhancing our experience on the dance floor, and hopefully, in life.

EveryBody is welcome. Let’s dance and take this in as many directions as possible.
