OPIS

FlowState is our Wednesday night Sweat in Somerville, your chance to move with us and reset and connect heart, body, mind, and soul.

A 5Rhythms® Sweat is a 2 hrs session. We start with a warm-up, then a brief introduction of the 5Rhythms, followed by a lightly guided Wave.

Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community.

All are welcome. Bring water and wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move.

Tickets: $20 ($15 concessions - students and unemployed)
