The Well is a 5Rhythms® Waves class with certified and accredited 5Rhythms teacher Layah Jane Singer-Wilson.

Amidst our culture of high speed “doing”, 5Rhythms movement meditation offers us space to let ourselves “be”. Time to touch in on what’s below the surface. To dowse for wellsprings of wonder. A place for a community of practice to emerge, with room for each of us to arrive as we are. A space to nourish, replenish, and ReSource.

Come, let’s gather by the waters of our shared love of movement. Let’s make space to honour the ebb and flow of griefs and joys that dance through us. Let’s rest into the pleasures of good grooves, and the good company of other dancing seekers of the sacred. Let’s empty out, and let’s fill ourselves back up, with some long deep drinks from the Well.

All are welcome here: all bodies, races, religions, genders, sexual orientations, abilities & disabilities, and movement experience.

5 class full series packages and single class advance tickets are available. Dancers are welcome to drop-in and pay cash at the door provided we haven’t yet reached capacity with advance ticket sales. NOTE: Very regularly we sell out in advance of class.

Important Ticket & Registration Info
To sign up for single classes, click a date, select your rate choice, and a ticket will be added to your cart.

To sign up for the full 5 class series for a 10% discount of the Sustainability, Supporting, or Supported tiers, scroll down to the "Packages".

The series packages will be available until 7pm on Wed Sept 10, or until we reach capacity.

Tiered pricing is available so that those of us with more can share, and those of us who could use some support can receive it. When you register at the Supporting or Generosity rate, a portion of your registration fee is applied toward another dancer's reduced-rate spot. If a lower price will make the classes accessible for you, please register at the Supported or Access rate. If you know you want to dance regularly, and these prices are a barrier for you, please email layahjane@hotmail.com for a possible work exchange or partial scholarship.
