On Sunday November 2, Joanne will lead two events: a morning class (10:30 to 12:30, in Studio A) and, in the evening, a movement and writing workshop (6:30 to 9:30pm, in Studio C).

Class Description:

In this potent time – known by names such as All Souls Day, Samhain, and the Day of the Dead – we’ll engage our 5Rhythms practice to create our own movement ritual in honour of our lineages, our ancestors, our allies, our beloved dead, and our webs of support. Giving thanks for the gift of our lives, we will honour those who have brought us to life, and who have made our living possible.

Evening Description:

Grounded in our movement practice, leading with our breath and bones, we will move, and write, and move again. In this session we will give movement, language, voice, and shape – with thanks, and in a ritually grounded way – to the relations, connections, and allies who support us.

For both events, you are invited to bring an object or a photo to place on a collective altar, to represent any of these aspects you might like to include in your practice, or dedicate your dance to.

Both events will be facilitated in English | les deux evenements seront animes en Anglais.

Location: Circuit Est Inc1881 Rue St-André, Montréal, QC H2L 3T9, Canada

$75 for the evening event ($65 student price)

$100 for both events ~ class + evening session ($90 student price)

$30 (visit Humanitix for pricing options) for the morning class

You are warmly invited to come for both sessions, or attend just one, depending on what fits your timing and how you are called to take part.

About Joanne:

Hailing from Victoria, British Columbia, Joanne is trained in the Waves, Heartbeat, and Mirrors maps (each ‘map’ being an interrelated level of the 5Rhythms cosmology). Her facilitation is rooted in a lifelong engagement with her own study, practice, and personal work.

This is an excellent opportunity for Montreal dancers to taste Joanne’s profound and gentle medicine in advance of her Mirrors 2026 workshop in Toronto (September 28 to October 03, 2026) and her 2027 weekend workshop in Montreal (October 29 to 31, 2027). We warmly invite you to join us.
