Victoria

The oldest 5Rhythms community in Australia, Melbourne is a must-dance destination for lovers of 5Rhythms.


Meredith Davies was the first teacher to start a weekly 5Rhythms class in Melbourne in 2003.  Five years later Madhuma Thompson began a second weekly class and initiated a monthly Sweat Your Prayers, and now more than a decade later, with Meredith’s husband David Juriansz joining the teaching field, they have grown a huge dancing tribe.  The weekly ‘Tuesday Tsunami Wave’ in North Fitzroy may be one of the biggest weekly 5R classes in the world ~ a pulsating, deep ride for over 150 dancers.  With sometimes 6 classes a week, workshops with international teachers, a growing roster of local teachers and more in training, Melbourne is a vibrant 5Rhythms dance community.

We'll be focusing on our soft centres - exploring our inner landscapes, the beating heart and the juicy emotional work. Somatic explorations, and integration through the 5Rhythms map. How do our stories shift and change when we can soften from our organs, and our heart centre?


Natalie Poole is a certified 5Rhythms teacher Waves and Heartbeat levels. Natalie draws on threads from her Dance-movement therapy and narrative therapy practices to weave a workshop that will awaken, and enable changes in your dance practice, your relationships, and enliven your experiences.


All hours and workshops with Natalie count towards the 5Rhythms teacher training path, and as personal hours towards dance-movement therapy personal hours.

Rest assured: full refund if cancellations due to COVID. Otherwise, partial refund or credit may be offered.


NB Sunday morning will be an open dance - others may join for this 'class'
