5Rhythms Dance for Everyone.
Beginners and Experienced dancers Welcome
5Rhythms is a free form dance of deep surrender, a moving prayer, a medicinal prescription of furious dancing for these graphic times.
Founded by Gabrielle Roth, 5Rhythms® is a kickass dynamic moving meditation that journeys through a mandala map called the Wave-Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, Stillness
About 5Rhythms®
Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced for decades by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego's hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community.
