EARTH TO ETHER: a Path to Joy

A 5Rhythms® Residential Workshop in Finland

19-21 September, 2025 | Autumn Equinox Weekend | New Moon Sunday

"Between the head and feet of any given person is a billion miles of unexplored wilderness."
— Gabrielle Roth

As the earth tilts toward the dark season and the northern forests begin their golden shedding, we invite you to gather for a weekend of deep movement, elemental ritual, and soulful renewal.

Earth to Ether: A Path to Joy is a 5Rhythms® workshop that traverses the landscapes of body, heart, and spirit—through the raw power of nature’s five elements and the depth of five core emotions. In this sacred turning of the season and under the mystery of the new moon, we dance not to perform—but to remember who we are.

Through the map of the 5Rhythms and the wisdom of the elements:

🌍 Earth | Flowing | Fear
We begin in grounding presence, feeling our feet on Finnish soil, connecting to the ancient strength of the Earth beneath us.

🔥 Fire | Staccato | Anger
We awaken the fire within—our courage, clarity, and passion—daring to express what lives in our hearts.

🌊 Water | Chaos | Sadness
We surrender to the tides of emotion, letting go into the wild currents of the body, releasing what no longer serves.

🌬️ Air | Lyrical | Joy
We rise into breath and spaciousness, letting joy move us lightly and freely, dancing our aliveness and truth.

✨ Ether | Stillness | Compassion
We dissolve into the unseen, into silence and unity, where the dance becomes prayer and presence. Here, we make space for what wants to be born.

This weekend will be held in the quiet embrace of Finnish nature—a safe, nourishing, and transformational container for your dance, your breath, and your being. Together, we’ll move through the rhythms, the elements, and our emotional landscapes, in a circle of trust and transformation.

Whether you are new to 5Rhythms or have danced for years, this is a powerful opportunity to reset your compass, align with your inner rhythm, and prepare your heart for the darker season ahead—with clarity, lightness, and joy.
