Resilience grows from exploring rather than pushing difficult emotions away. Layering experience, support, and mindfulness helps us recognize that joy can sit beside them.
During challenging times, we can overlook the ordinary life moments that come in smaller packages.
The things that make our whole bodies smile and our hearts lift a bit.
A colorful bird visiting your garden. The peace inside a deep breath. Pausing to listen. A child laughing. Witnessing your animals in play. Art, music, poetry that captures your soul. A yummy meal that makes you stop and go mmmm...
Joy can be a powerful form of resilience, even though it is often the first thing to go when we are stressed, overwhelmed, grieving, or facing a challenge.
What if we slowed down and really let these moments in? Felt them in our bodies. Breathed them in through all of our senses. Let them move us, expand us, and fill our soul bucket. Trusting that these moments are our soul right, instead of something we have to earn. This is part of being human.
Even in difficult times, moments of joy are still there, waiting for us to notice them.
In this weekend workshop, we will dance through the 5Rhythms Heartbeat map, exploring how joy can support us even through fear, anger, and sadness, and open the door to compassion.
Without bypassing what is hard. This is about strengthening our ability to turn toward what nourishes us when life gets challenging.
We welcome you to dance, move, connect, sweat, feel, and explore the resilience of joy.
Deepening a practice of self-nourishment and inner depth.
This workshop counts as 2.5 days of Heartbeat Level prerequisites for the 5Rhythms Teacher Training.
Prerequisites to Join
5 Waves classes and/or one Waves level workshop.
About Us
We have worked together offering workshops and support for one another for over a decade. We show up authentically in our relationship both on and off the dance floor, with some dancers asking, “When are we getting another Jo and Christina Show?”
Coming together to offer workshops for our communities is a gift we both look forward to each year. This year, we will be offering together in Los Angeles with Jo Cobbett’s community, and we are hoping to bring together Southern California movers around a theme that is dear to both of our hearts.
About Christina
Alongside my role as a 5Rhythms teacher and support staff for the teacher training, I offer neuro-affirming therapy for autistic and ADHD individuals, couples, and families. I am passionate about holding space that is inclusive, assists in settling our nervous systems, and supports building resilience, strengthening relationships, and navigating life’s transitions with greater self-awareness, choice, and connection.
About Jo
Jo Cobbett's background in visual arts, bodywork, and 30 years of supporting and guiding embodiment sessions continues to inspire her. Jo has been producing, teaching, exploring, and connecting beings into their hearts using music, words, creative play, and the dance of 5Rhythms, focusing on freeing layers of creative possibility.
