O R I G I N

Making contact, remembering, or renewing our relationship with something larger than ourselves – whether we call it Spirit, or Nature, or Lineage, or Life – can restore our sense of connection, place, and belonging within the larger cycles around us. Tending this connection can help us remember what’s important, and can sustain us in offering our piece to the whole.

GOOD MEDICINE- A 5Rhyhms workshop with Anne Marie Hogya

GOOD MEDICINE

A 5RHYTHMS® DANCE | MOVEMENT WORKSHOP WITH ANNE MARIE HOGYA

Like good medicine, what if we offer ourselves exquisite care?

What if we learn to make choices that sustain us, groove patterns that honour us, and live lives that become the very remedy we need?

We can.

Here, we’ll tend to our bodies with compassion, move together as a community, and mix up a cauldron of connection with ourselves and each other.

Let’s summon our deep, wise, life-affirming medicine.

This dance workshop is for anyone who wants to explore their own innate wisdom, no experience required. The movement tools, techniques and inspiration you learn here can be immediately applied to daily life. Designed for adults of every age and ability.

Anne Marie has a fierce commitment to truth seeking and a passion for creating workshops that mix the practical with the wildly creative. She is known for her no-nonsense speaking combined with a relentless sense of humour, compassion and courage. Anne Marie is a DJ, a registered therapist, and studied and trained with 5Rhythms® founder Gabrielle Roth.
