Tending Your Dancing Body

 We dance for so many incredible reasons and, if you’re a normal human being, you might be moving with some physical challenges. Those problems can intensify with dance or new ones can develop: hips, knees, feet, back, neck, shoulders. What to do? Join Bella & Majica for a dose of playful informative movement that can radically shift your practice. Instead of pushing through pain (which never works!) tend your ever-aging body with effective, nurturing self-care. Balls & rollers, power & stretch expertly woven with 5Rhythms® dance creates healing in nervous system, joints, fascia and muscle. This is life-changing feel-good movement providing long-term health benefits on and off the dance floor.

God, Sex & The Body

"God Sex and the Body is and always will be a profound and integral part of the 5Rhythms® curriculum. It has personally informed my way of being, my teaching style, and, most deeply, my acceptance of who I am and who I am not.” -- Gabrielle

In the series of maps that comprise the dancing path of the 5Rhythms®, God, Sex and the Body is an initiation into being an embodied soul. It is a deeply personal journey, a celebration like no other, a ritual for the hot and holy you.

This journey is a call to stretch our imaginations with a long forgotten innocence and move through a spectrum of feminine and masculine archetypes, to dress up these characters in ritual theater, get inside them and give them expression. No one else can be a man or woman exactly like you. No one else can embody your soul, or project your magic or have your specific curiosity. Part lover, part artist, part god, we were born to rock the world and feel our way into each others hearts.

Grounded in the 5Rhythms Movement practice, this experience can liberate and inspire us to emerge a bit more fascinated with each other and the mystery of it all.
