This 5Rhythms Sweat Your Prayers class on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend calls us into a moving meditation of remembrance. 

As we step onto the dance floor, we create space for sorrow and celebration, silence and song. We dance not to forget, but to carry forward—to let memory breathe through our bodies and find new expression in motion. In honoring those we’ve lost, we deepen our connection to life itself. With each rhythm, we invite healing, presence, and a return to the heart of what truly matters.

Sweat Your Prayers™ is a movement practice and dance meditation created by 5Rhythms founder Gabrielle Roth. She developed the practice as part of the larger movement philosophy, the 5Rhythms. The 5Rhythms is a dynamic movement practice that explores five rhythms—Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness—to unlock creativity, release energy, and promote self-awareness.

In Sweat Your Prayers™, through the physicality of dancing and moving your body, you can engage in a form of embodied prayer or meditation. It's a way to connect with your deeper self, release pent-up energy or emotions, and experience freedom and authenticity through movement.

The practice is inclusive and accessible to people of all ages and physical abilities. It has been embraced by diverse individuals seeking a holistic approach to self-discovery and personal growth. Classes are conducted in a supportive and non-judgmental environment, encouraging participants to explore and express themselves by moving with music.

There are no prescribed steps; instead, tap into your body's wisdom, bringing awareness to patterns within yourself and discovering your unique expression. Sylvie Minot guides the class in silence, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the experience of dancing as a movement meditation.

Secure Your Spot

We highly recommend pre-registering to secure your place in this welcoming class, as space is limited, and classes often reach capacity quickly. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy a morning in the lovely seaside town of Point Richmond.

We hope you will join us for this special Sweat Your Prayers class!
