DESCRIPTION

Mount Davidson · San Francisco

This workshop is a 5Rhythms-inspired embodied installation practice—an extension of moving inquiry into the natural world.

We’ll gather in nature and begin with a somatic check-in, then walk in quiet, tracking sensation, breath, sound, and contact with the land. Drawing from 5Rhythms principles of presence, listening, and embodiment, we’ll allow what’s alive in the body to guide us.

Together, we’ll create a simple shared visual arrangement (installation/altar) from found natural objects—a way to let the body speak visually. The installation becomes a reflection of our physical and emotional presence in this moment, and an offering from our bodies back to the body of the earth.

This practice supports:

returning to the body

nervous system regulation through sensory contact

marking seasonal thresholds and turning points

expressing what’s present without words

No art experience is needed. This is not about performance or aesthetics, but about listening, relationship, and return.
