BESCHRIJVING

The healing power of sweating was already known to indigenous peoples who held sweat lodge ceremonies. The founder of the 5Rhythms dance meditation also experienced this deeply herself.

“To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self.

Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past.

Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self-healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge.

I do it on the dance floor. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray.

The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy.”

- Gabrielle Roth

5Rhythms

The 5Rhythms are both a workout and a meditation for anyone who loves to dance. It is a simple yet profound movement practice that brings healing to body, mind, heart, and soul.

The five rhythms — Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness — together form a wave of movement. They invite you to move in your own unique way, to listen to your body, and to (re)discover your natural flow and expression.

Sweat Lodge

The sweat lodge ceremony is an ancient purification ritual found among many indigenous cultures, most famously among the Native Americans. The sweat lodge as practiced at Kura Waka is based on the Chippewa Cree tradition and is experienced as a warm, embracing blanket.

Feel yourself held within the lodge —

a sacred space,

a time for healing, prayer, blessing, song, and beautiful mythologies,

where the stones are our Grandfathers

and the water our Grandmother,

coming together to surround us in healing steam.

The scent of the forever green.

Welcome to the circle…
