DESCRIPTION

The Well ~ 5Rhythms Waves Class Series with Layah
Wed May 10 - Wed Jun 14, 2023
(no class Wed May 31)

Roncesvalles United Church, 240 Roncesvalles Ave, Toronto
7-9pm

Amidst our culture of high speed “doing”, 5Rhythms movement meditation offers us space to let ourselves “be”. Time to touch in on what’s below the surface. To dowse for wellsprings of wonder. A place for a community of practice to emerge, with room for each of us to arrive as we are. A space to nourish, replenish, and ReSource.

Come, let’s gather by the waters of our shared love of movement. Let’s make space to honour the ebb and flow of griefs and joys that dance through us. Let’s rest into the pleasures of good grooves, and the good company of other dancing seekers of the sacred. Let’s empty out, and let’s fill ourselves back up, with some long deep drinks from the Well.

Every body, and all movement experience is welcome.

When you register at the Supporter rate, a portion of your registration fee is applied toward another dancer's reduced-rate spot. If a lower price will make the classes accessible for you, please register at the 'Supported' rate. If you know you want to dance regularly, and these prices are a barrier for you, please email me at layahjane@hotmail.com for a possible partial scholarship or work trade possibilities.

*Available Discount Code: "Reparations" for a 50% discount (single class or full series) is available to anyone who chooses to identify as a person of colour, regardless of ability to pay.

REFUND POLICY: There are no refunds. If you must cancel your attendance due to testing positive for Covid, you will be offered a class credit which can be applied towards a future class with Layah. If you are unable to attend for other reasons, first please let us know so we may release your spot to another dancer. In the event that we are at capacity and we are able to fill your spot, you will be offered two options: you may donate your tuition to the scholarship fund, or you may receive a class credit which can be applied towards a future class with Layah. No credits will be issued for no-shows, or if we have not reached capacity. To request a class credit, please email layahjane@hotmail.com.

HEALTH PROTOCOL

We expect any dancers experiencing cold/flu symptoms to stay home to care for themselves, and the rest of the group.

Capacity limits (registration capped at 40 dancers)
Rapid antigen testing pre-class
Masks optional
Windows open
Contact tracing (name and phone number of every participant)

TEST AT HOME: We will not be testing at the front table for this class series, and instead are asking that participants test at home. It is done on the honour system. Upon arriving you will sign a sheet saying that you have tested at home. If you have not tested at home we will give you a test and you can find a spot to test yourself on site.

THROAT, CHEEK and NOSTRILS: We ask that all testers swab throat, checks, and nostrils as this has been proven as the best way to test for COVID.

While no layer of protection is perfect, the above measures work better together than they do alone. If you choose to attend this indoor class, you acknowledge that though we are taking precautions, there is still a risk of contracting Covid as a result of attending, and you are assuming full responsibility for your choice to attend, and any illnesses or injuries that may result.
