DESCRIPTION

ABOUT JUDIT

I started dancing seriously over a decade ago, which felt like coming home - recalling my teenage years, cranking up the volume and dancing my insides out - just like in my bedroom. In 2016 I became a 5Rhythms Spaceholder in Southampton, but London called me back, and I graduated as a 5Rhythms teacher in 2021. I am passionate to be in service to those looking for a space to explore their unique dance - the dance they only can embody - and share it with others in the community.”

ABOUT THE 5RHYTHMS:

Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free.

Creativity. Connection. Community.
