"TRIBAL DANCE"

 “In the beginning, we all danced. Our ancestors danced until they disappeared in the dance, until they felt the full force of spirit unleashing their souls. This was their religion, and it was ecstatic and personal and tribal.” 

GABRIELLE ROTH

Tribal dance is a gathering of dancers coming together from different places to reflect, heal and let go with gratitude the year that has passed, as well as welcome the new one with our intentions, visions and inspirations. It is an opportunity to celebrate unity through our uniqueness.

This year’s Tribal Dance is inspired by the wisdom, culture and art from Brazil. 

This workshop will be a balanced combination of basic 5Rhythms® teachings, 2 dancing ceremonies and some surprise additions to the program.

5Rhythms®: Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness – show us the way to be rooted, centered, powerful, visionary and in Love.

We offer 2 dancing ceremonies, Dance Pilgrimage and Tree Ceremony (supported with Sacred Cacao from Brazil), as powerful and efficient tools to state our intentions, and keep the mind focused; they are the vessels holding space for us to enter timelessness and expand our consciousness. The need for ceremonies at certain times of our life and at certain times throughout the year, like the time around the New Year, is deeply rooted in our human DNA.

EMBODIED TAROT

 EMBODIED TAROT

As we enter the new year, it's a powerful time to reflect on where we've been, how it's shaping us now, what we're ready to leave behind, and what we want to move toward.

Our bodies can serve as our own tarot, revealing powerful messages and insights as we move. By tuning in to our movements and sensations, we can listen to our own wisdom, inspire new ideas, and open fresh perspectives.

Embodied Tarot blends the collective wisdom of the 5Rhythms movement and The 360 Emergence practices, creating a dynamic space of possibility. It’s a celebration of life, a chance to reset, and an opportunity to honor our truth, offer kindness, and be with one another as we step into this new year.

All are welcome. No previous experience is required.

Anne Marie Hogya (Canada) + Beatrice Kraus (Austria) first met on a high desert dance floor in 2018, where they developed a profound mutual respect for each other’s shapeshifting embodiment. Beatrice, a certified teacher in Open Floor® and The 360 Emergence® practices, brings a diverse background in theater, Chinese medicine, and trauma work to her teaching. Anne Marie, a DJ and registered occupational therapist, has studied extensively with Gabrielle Roth and the 5Rhythms faculty and is accredited to teach both the physical (Waves) and emotional (Heartbeat) maps of the 5Rhythms practice. Both have been offering their work locally and internationally for many years and bring a wealth of knowledge to share. www.annemariehogya.com + www. beatricekraus.at
