DESCRIPTION

Louise La Terra will be leading South London Dance Community Class.

Soulful Solstice

During this class we’ll take some time together, through the 5Rhythms practice to resource, recharge, refresh and reconnect. I’ll be offering flavours of Solstice, simplicity and festive celebration.

About Louise

Louise lives on the edge of Dartmoor in Devon, with her three children. She has a background in Karate, Tai-Chi and Flow Arts, and discovered 5Rhythms in the midst of motherhood in 2013. Finding the 5Rhythms gave Louise a creative outlet to be authentic and find her freedom. After 12 years of dancing Louise is extremely passionate about living the 5Rhythms philosophy in her day to day life with the mindfulness and tools that the practice can offer. Having graduated in the 5Rhythms Teacher Training in 2024 Louise is now able to use her passion and experience to bring 5Rhythms to others.

"I’m touched by the beauty, the simplicity, yet profound depth of the 5Rhythms maps, the richness and far reaching expanse of creative possibilities. Being on this dancing path for the last 12 years has been a huge catalyst for change and healing, it’s completely changed my life. The practice continues to be a core thread, bringing belonging, community and mystery through the human heart into life’s dance itself. I’m ever more inspired, ever more in love.

I feel humbled to be following a deep calling to be of service, to hold space and be a gateway for the 5Rhythms. My hope is that through this practice everybody gets to live their truth to the fullest expression of who they are. Moving through the 5rhythms, receiving the medicine of the dance, opening up to these states of being to find your true nature and beauty of what it is to be human."
