DESCRIPTION

“Your body is your best guide. It constantly tells you, in the form of pain or sensations, what’s working for you and What’s not.” - Hina Hashmi –

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

We often blame the outside environment -- what is outside our body -- for the chaos and tension that we may sense inside.

In fact, the opposite is true.

In this 3hr workshop, we will explore, with music and dance, our own unique inner rhythms focusing on feeling the deeper connection to the physical sensations of our body parts: feet, hips, head, hands, and breath. Our aim is to cultivate awareness of the deeper physical sensations, releasing both inhibitions and tensions….to relax and quiet down the inner commotion, from the ground up.

About the 5Rhythms:

The 5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice where we move and dance to rhythmic music sets or what we term as Waves. The five rhythms are Flowing Staccato Chaos Lyrical and Stillness® describing different landscapes of physical movements and in sequence together, they form a “5Rhythms Wave”. This embodiment practice is a way to let go of inhibitions and release tension and frustration. It is a way to shake off the day, the week, and the stress that get stored in our bodies as aches and pains. It’s a way out of inertia and the chattering thinking brain. As Gabrielle Roth (the founder) says, "The fastest way to still the mind is to move the body”.
