How do we meet this moment of ecological collapse and collective uncertainty with open hearts and steady presence? How do we stay awake and engaged without becoming overwhelmed or numb?

Rooted in Joanna Macy’s Work That Reconnects and the 5Rhythms® movement practice, this workshop offers an embodied map for navigating the terrain of our times. Through dance, ritual, and shared inquiry, we will deepen our capacity to meet this moment with presence, courage, and purpose.

Guided by the 5Rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness, we’ll move through the Spiral of the Work That Reconnects—beginning by grounding in gratitude, and then honoring our heartache for the world. As we allow our hearts to open, we’ll invite new vision and possibility, and explore how each of us might move forward—resourced by our unique gifts and in connection with others.

Through movement, small-group connection, and embodied listening, we’ll attune to the Earth and to one another, and feel into the next right steps we’re called to take.

This is a space to cultivate the courage, imagination, and resilience this moment calls for—not in isolation, but in community. Together, we will explore moving from disconnection to belonging, from stuck to embodied presence, from overwhelm to purposeful action.

Come as you are. Leave with a thread to follow–rooted in your own rhythm, capacity and love for the world.
