In this  retreat we will explore our inner and outer nature through movement. Deepening the connection to the elements through embodiment and expression. The intention is to sense and experience the unique power and support each of them has in our bodies. As well as the magic mix of alchemy between the shifts and shades, gift and traits they provide when we allow them to interplay and co-exist in our dance.

The elements are known as resources in most cultures and traditions like at the indigenous people, in yoga and in shamanic practice, as well in the maps of the 5Rhythms, Flowing - earth, Staccato - fire, Chaos - water, Lyrical - air, Stillness - alchemy mix.

Moving with the language and landscape of the 5Rhythms element map is direct, profound, instinctive and real. It’s a way to align with aliveness and reconnect, heal and empower our body, mind and heart.

Moving with the elements

Welcome to this summerretreat at beautiful Möllan, surrounded by lovely nature in Småland, south of Sweden. Last two summers 5 day retreat has been just amazing, here is a new chance to join.

We will in a creative way explore how the 5Rhythms connects to the elements. In the 5Rhythms map, Flowing corresponds to earth, Staccato to fire, Chaos to water, Lyrical to air, and Stillness to ether. Each day will be a rich dive into each rhythms and the element! 

We will dance two sessions per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon or evening. There is some free time every day for you to spend as you wish. Möllan is just by a lovely lake, there are kayaks and SUP-boards to borrow, as well as a sauna. Or you just want to rest in a hamaca, go for a walk or read a book.

During these days we will nourish ourselves with our movement sessions, sharings, silence, rest and nature. We will invite contact with nature as we are moving with the theme of the elements. If the weather allows us, we will move some sessions in nature with silent disco headphones. That is a very special thing I love to share and for many it is very touching and a rich experience.

5Rhythms is a dynamic movement practice founded by Gabrielle Roth. It is a map of how energy moves in the body and through the rhythms of flow, stackato, chaos, lyrical and stillness. Come explore, there are no steps to learn or follow, anyone can join this practice. Welcome as you are!
