EMBODYSSEY 2023 BYRON: Year Long Program

Embark on a radical and revolutionary odyssey of evolution through the vehicle of movement and expression.

EMBODY | ENGAGE | EMPTY | EMERGE | EVOLVE

Using the 5Rhythms as our map, the body as our guide, movement as our fuel, and evolution as our destiny.

5Rhythms.
Five wisdoms.
Five weekend modules.
Five Sacred Tasks.
Online support.
One container.
One year.

This year-long odyssey is a powerful enquiry through dance into yourself as a Body of Work. We will be exploring the five wisdoms of the 5Rhythms dance/movement modality through five unique and aligned modules, as distilled by Honor Morningstar, in such a way that brings awareness, action, accountability, and alchemy.

This work is experiential and engaging.

Moving together with a dedicated circle of courageous kinsfolk, dancing for the duration of a year, as well as taking on a series of personal/practical quests, provides the framework for real ‘feet on the ground’ applications of this work. Your commitment and discipline are required.

Depth of Clarity

I always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific.

Lily Tomlin, Comedian

Overwork, overload, overwhelm. Trash, texting, tensing. Instagram, instant gratification, useless information.   icloud, ikea, no idea. Compulsion, confusion, computer frozen. Modern life in a consumer society…

This workshop will explore the physicality of the 5Rhythms inviting in the mountain of clarity that staccato teaches and the shimmering reflection of stillness. You will invigorate your dance practice, reclaiming a depth of clarity that is always there, concealed behind clouds of mental chatter.

There is no emoji for presence.

The 5Rhythms® map is an extraordinary landscape for movement possibility that awakens our soul and shines a brilliant light on the simplicity of being. Every body is a unique communication. So let’s get clear.  Together.

David Juriansz brings a wealth of experience as 5Rhythms dancer, facilitator, songwriter, musician and performer. His humour, storytelling, and passion for the embodiment of the 5Rhythms, engages both newcomers and long-term dancers, and his weekly 5Rhythms class regularly attracts over 100 people. David has taught internationally and with his wife Meredith Davies is the co-founder of Moving Essence.

Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythms are taught all over the world and Moving Essence started the first weekly classes in Melbourne 20 years ago. Workshops offer a deeper experience of this life changing practice.

For the second time this year, we are thrilled to bring our work to Newcastle in collaboration with friend and fellow teacher Michelle Lampis who is the producer of this workshop.
