Healing Waters: Return to One

Big Sur - 10 Nov 2025 to 14 Nov 2025
Douglas Drummond

We invite you to step into a powerful, immersive experience weaving the dynamic energy of 5Rhythms® movement with the deep wisdom of Indigenous traditions. Rooted in the teachings of the Esselen people, this workshop is an invitation to reconnect — with yourself, your community, and the natural world.

For millennia, rites of passage and sacred ceremonies have marked the transitions of life to foster deep connection and a sense of belonging. Today, many of these traditions have been lost or fragmented, leaving us yearning for meaning and community.. In this weeklong journey, we’ll honor the wisdom of the past while creating space for a new kind of homecoming — one that transcends gender, background, and experience.

Through guided movement, storytelling, and shared rituals, we’ll celebrate diversity and unity, embracing both what makes us unique and what brings us together. This is a space for authentic expression and deep listening, where every story and background is honored.

This workshop is a collaborative initiative as part of the healing and reconciliation process between Esalen Institute, participating faculty, and the Esselen Tribe.

Ignite: Power and Passion in EveryBody

Berkeley - 14 Nov 2025 to 16 Nov 2025
Douglas Drummond

In a world burning with division and disconnection, IGNITE is a call to remember: we are not just minds; we are breath, bone, spirit, and story.

This is not your typical movement workshop. This is a revolution of rhythm, a fierce celebration of difference, and a soul-stirring dive into what it means to truly inhabit your body, whatever body you’re in.

Led by Douglas Drummond, a dynamic 5Rhythms® teacher known for his deep, inclusive approach to embodiment, and Dr. Victor Pineda, a global force for disability justice and human rights, this experience welcomes every body and every story. Together, we’ll burn through the barriers that keep us separate and dance into a new kind of belonging.

We have two amazing guest musicians: Sanga of the Valley and Nick Ayers.

Maestros Locales

“Movement never lies. It is a barometer telling the state of the soul's weather to all who can read it.- Martha Graham ”

“My job is to hold a sacred space where people can see what is already there.”

“Keep dancing with that spark of truth that resides in all of us. Allow it to lead. Have the courage to leap, even when it is scary...”

““The body holds stories and old wounds, and medicine as well. It has the antidote to heal itself. Through moving, we release our stories and allow healing to come through.” - Sylvie Minot”

“" Your Body is the harp of your soul and it is yours to bring forth sweet music from it or confused sounds" Khalil Gibran ”

“This is the truly creative dancer, natural but not imitative, speaking in movement out of (themselves) and out of something greater than all selves. ~Joseph Campbell”

“Dance the World into being”

“"The most precious jewels may never see the light—but once they do, they shine." "It is a gift to have the courage to move through your wounds and find your freedom." "Deep wounds once held me hostage—believing I wasn’t good enough, that ”

“In movements, everything is possible. ”

“Dance when your broken open. Dance when you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free. Rumi”

“If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough”

“Rain, oceans are my Flowing. Street traffic, crowds chatting are my Staccato. Waterfalls, pounding jack hammers are my Chaos. Winds, hummingbirds are my Lyrical. Echoes of drops in a cave, my breaths are my Stillness.”

“I dance to rediscover, remember, recreate, and to return to love. It takes courage to live one's truth. Your courage breeds courage in me. Will you join me and dance our truth?”

“this dance is my practice; my presence, playfulness and passion meet and the truest sense of my self emerges here i connect to source & know my depth ”

“Discover your ground, define your passion and voice, dissolve what holds you back, delight in your originality, dance with whatever is in the moment.”

“We reside in our body to express the unique and amazing being living inside. Telling the truth through the body liberates us from the confines of social structure and hardened beliefs of self. In other words, dancing ROCKS!”

“After all this time I have no doubt: embodied physical practice in the context of a shamanic 5Rhythms wave delivers. Must be present to win. ”

“We are Gods and Goddesses with a global case of human amnesia. We dance to remember, we dance to forget, we dance to let go, to heal the cells of our body-mind and reignite the crystal imprints of our souls.”

“What a surprise it was to find all the answers in the body, not the mind.”
