An afternoon/evening workshop of creativity, connection, and community.
5Rhythms dance accompanied by live improvised music, circle singing, and sound healing will be our modalities in this workshop, encouraging free expression through movement and sound and a return to the source of wellbeing.
A 5Rhythms wave channelled by four musicians is a very different experience to a wave that uses recorded music: the sounds of kora, cello, clarinet, flute, voice and plenty of percussion will both lead and respond to your dance, co-creating the alchemic wonder that is movement medicine.
Incorporated into the workshop will be the opportunity for vocal sounding through Circle Singing - an ancient and contemporary approach to singing with others. When we sing together without a song or a composer, these roles become shared in the moment with spontaneously created music and emergent shared leadership, involving deep listening to self and others and the space in between. No experience necessary. Led by musician Patrick Carpenter.
Into the workshop, we will also incorporate a sound bath journey led by musician Storme Watson.

As the year draws to a close, let’s take stock
Let’s notice and remember the shape and texture of our experience:
The challenges and the struggles,
The blessings and the gifts
Let’s find a way together to hold all of it,
To move with it and beyond it,
With a sense of completion
Making our peace
How do we honour the journey
With thankfulness,
And then let it all go?
Moving with wisdom and kindness
Listening and acknowledging
Let’s end the year
Gracefully
With a sense of conscious completion
