Victoria

The oldest 5Rhythms community in Australia, Melbourne is a must-dance destination for lovers of 5Rhythms.


Meredith Davies was the first teacher to start a weekly 5Rhythms class in Melbourne in 2003.  Five years later Madhuma Thompson began a second weekly class and initiated a monthly Sweat Your Prayers, and now more than a decade later, with Meredith’s husband David Juriansz joining the teaching field, they have grown a huge dancing tribe.  The weekly ‘Tuesday Tsunami Wave’ in North Fitzroy may be one of the biggest weekly 5R classes in the world ~ a pulsating, deep ride for over 150 dancers.  With sometimes 6 classes a week, workshops with international teachers, 3 local teachers and more in training, Melbourne is a vibrant 5Rhythms dance community.

 This is the work where 5Rhythms® dance & Somatic Movement Education BMC® intersect.

This is a practice of moving from our insides.

Rivka Honeybee Worth | Naarm, Melbourne, AUS

Rivka has been a student of Body-Mind Centering® since 2000 and recently graduated the Somatic Movement Educator (SME) program in 2024. Rivka has been dancing 5Rhythms since 1991 and has been a certified teacher since 2014. With several decades of embodied experience in these modalities, plus more, she has designed a system that interweaves the somatic education with the dance wave. This workshop has been offered several times and continues to develop in it's form. Each time, Rivka has witnessed participants deepen their sense of self and their connection to their practice. Cells awaken to themselves, supporting balance, efficiency, clarity and ease. Movement possibilities have been enriched and expanded. Dancers have experienced a newborn embodied awareness.


At 19 I was thrown into facilitating community dance for young people with disabilities and thirty years later, in my 50's, I continue to enjoy supporting a broad diversity of people to move and express freely in their bodies. My teaching has moved thousands of different people in health, justice, education, arts, remote and environmental settings. Dance floors range from inner city halls, leafy forest beds, community gymnasiums to red desert earth. My qualifications include three decades of community dance leadership, including BA Dance Uni SA, Certified 5Rhythms® teacher & Certified The 360 Emergence facilitator, Somatic Movement Educator, (BMC), Certified The Work that Reconnects Facilitator & Futuring Trainer. I have worked extensively in Community Dance, Community Cultural Development, Improvisation Practice, Somatic Practice and as a professional Choreographer, Artistic Director and Production Manager. I specialise in Ecosomatics and in Ceremonial Dance, where sacred connection and transformation are individually and collectively embodied. I focus on cultivating a symbiotic relationship with Nature through Eco Soma™, Ecosomatic practice.

In this workshop we will dance ourselves back into our bodies, back into our agency and body wisdom. We'll explore and develop the cyclic menstrual wisdom - with a focus on the Autumn of our cycles and our lives. In the afternoon we'll take the opportunity to share and learn the possibilities and potential of the menopause, and how we might harvest the wisdom of all that may be evoked and stirred. 

Natalie has woven new maps for women to dance through their lunar/menstrual energies; their birthing/creative energies; and their empowerment/archetypal life energies and life cycles. Through her studies with Alexandra Pope (The Red School), Rhea Dempsey (Birthing Wisdom) and working with the archetypal stories of Dr Clarissa Pinkola Estes (Women Who Run with the Wolves), Natalie has absorbed the current principles of female wisdom, and interlaced these with the simple, and yet potent and catalysing map of Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms dance. Together, these new maps form a carefully curated, sensitively synthesised, and richly multi-layered tapestry that forms the basis for Natalie's women's moving medicine work. Dancing through and embodying these maps opens and nurtures our well-being, our creativity and expression, and re-connects us to our essence and life-force.
