The 5Rhythms®comprise five different movement qualities or "rhythms"that guide and support us as we explore moving and dancing. Theyprovide the framework for improvised, un-choreographed dance thatarises from the moment, from the body, intuition, senses. The weeklyclass is an opportunity to return home into yourself, empty out andfill up. Classes are open to all adults. No previous experiencenecessary.

"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."
