Heartbeat Summer Edition
22-28 August 2022
Sutivan, Island of Brač
Led by Silvija and Thierry
“Many of us have the idea that emotional energy is like fuel – if you spend it, use it, give it away, then you’ll have less. This energy, however, is not a commodity that becomes depleted with use. Like the blood in our circulatory system, it needs to flow, to be used up, and will replenish itself and keep us healthy.”
Gabrielle Roth
HEART WAVES is a beautiful opportunity to search inside of our hearts and find the answers that we are looking for on the outside. This is an invitation to dance the dance that only we can dance and to do that in company of others; all surrendering to the mystery of what it is to be alive right now.
We will go one day at a time, step by step following the 5Rhythms map. We will dance 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening which gives us plenty of time to enjoy this beautiful island and just chill out. Morning sessions will be Waves level classes with Thierry, and evening sessions will be Heartbeat level classes with Silvija.
In Waves we practice grounded fluidity, clear expression, freedom of release, lightness of connections and aliveness of breath. We give our attention to different body parts to show us the way and we follow the waves of our energy.
In Heartbeat we explore our emotions as energy, as power, as part of being human. We get comfortable with feelings, neither hanging onto them nor pushing them away. We dance towards our spontaneous heart, the heart that is ready for anything.
“The heart is restless, until it rests in the body.“
St Augustine
For the past 20 years Silvija has been teaching the 5Rhythms practice in a grounded and passionate way, with clarity and imagination, humour and wisdom in Croatia and abroad.
Thierry also travels whenever he can, teaching this practice that he fell in love with. He shares the knowledge and experience he acquired as an actor and a gestalt therapist with enthusiasm and full-on creativity. His strengths lie in his ease and openness to challenges and his absolute love of music.
Workshop will be led in English.
