Does the beat of a rhythm inspire you to move?!

The 5Rhythms® Movement Practice is an embodiment meditation; a map of rhythms that guide us to consciously engage with the creative and healing energies that move through our body and through our daily life.

“I have found a language of patterns I can trust to deliver us into universal truths, truths older than time. In the rhythm of the body, we can trace our holiness, roots that go all the way back to zero. States of being where all identities dissolve into an eternal flow of energy. Energy moves in waves. Waves move in patterns. Patterns move in rhythms. A human being is just that, energy, waves, patterns, rhythms. Nothing more. Nothing less. A dance.”

Gabrielle Roth - Founder and creator of the 5Rhythms Practice

In the 5Rhythms practice, we explore these waves, patterns and rhythms that are inherent in all of nature, including every cell in our body, impacting our mental, emotional, and spiritual selves.

As we experience ourselves as energy in motion, we create space for what is true, and real, and possible. We experience our individuality and authenticity. We deepen our understanding of how to move through our life more grounded, more engaged, more willing to let go and trust what is coming next…

The Map

The 5Rhythms® Wave is a map through a continual cycle of the five rhythms

Flowing Staccato Chaos Lyrical Stillness®

Each rhythm is a teaching, a medicine and a metaphor.

The practice is a dynamic, informative, and transformative journey.

Learn and deepen your 5Rhythms® practice

In a guided class or workshop, we move in and out of our comfort zone, in and out of our resistance, always moving toward a shift - enjoying the familiar, while exploring the edges of what there is to discover about ourself. We can only dance our own unique dance, and our dance embodies our authenticity. We build confidence, trust, resilience, and connection. We experience the joy of living in a body. Consciously moving these rhythms through our own body enlivens our self-awareness, empowers our choice making, and opens our heart. We fall in love with life, with ourself, and with each other, over and over again……

In a 5Rhythms class or workshop, guided by a Certified 5Rhythms teacher, we use live or recorded music, and sometimes, no music at all. We use verbal guidance as an invitation into the shapes and patterns of each rhythm. We explore our own dance, our dance with another and with others in community.

The journey through the 5Rhythms map is your own to embody. There is no choreography. Your dance is your exploration of this map. This map reveals what is true and possible for you. You can be any size, shape, age, or level of experience. You can be a closet dancer, a wannabe dancer, have never danced, or have always danced.  The music, the invitations, and the rhythms are tools used to bring us deeper into our body, deeper into our self-awareness - liberating our capacity to express ourself and creating space to change and heal and experience who we truly are.
