5 Rhythms® Workshop
from Old Year to New Year
Waves level
Led by Silvija Tomčik
29.12.2026 - 02.01.2027
Leibnitz, Austria
“Now more than ever we need to return to ourselves for guidance and to rely on long-buried instincts and intuitions. As parents, teachers, friends, lovers, and leaders we need to honor the artist and healer within, who hold the key to our spiritual growth as tribal individuals, independent from dated dogmas and full of deeper independence.”
GABRIELLE ROTH
Tribal Dance is a gathering of dancers coming together from all walks of life to reflect, heal, and release the past year with gratitude, while welcoming the new one with shared intentions, visions, and inspiration. It is a celebration of our unity through our unique individuality.
This year’s edition is inspired by the wisdom, culture, and rich artistic heritage of the Balkans.
The workshop offers a balanced blend of core 5Rhythms® teachings, a dance ceremony, and intentional ritual, along with a few special surprises added to the program.
The 5Rhythms®—Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness—guide us to feel rooted, centered, powerful, visionary, and grounded in love.
The need to gather for ceremony at key moments of the year, especially New Year's Eve, is deeply encoded in human nature.
Dec 31st Evening Program: A collective Dance Pilgrimage diving deep together and concluding before midnight.
The workshop is led in English.
Previous Waves experience led by 5Rhythms accredited teachers is needed. This workshop counts as a 4 days Waves towards the 5Rhythms Teacher Training.
