A Movement Meditation Practice of Moving True
Does the beat of a rhythm inspire you to move?!
The 5Rhythms® Movement Practice is a body movement meditation; a map of rhythms that guide us through movement, 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 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 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…
Journey through the Wave
The Rhythm Wave is a continual cycle of the 5Rhythms - Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, Stillness®. Each rhythm is a teaching. The map through the cycle, called a Rhythm Wave, is a teaching. The Rhythm Wave is a dynamic, informative, transformative journey.
The beauty of the Rhythm Wave is self-discovery and the embodiment of possibility.
The Wave supports and deepens the joy of moving our bodies, and draws us out of our comfort zone, to explore the unknown, build confidence, trust, resilience, and connection. Because the Rhythm Wave is always in motion, we move in and out of our resistance, always moving toward a shift.
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, with each other,
over and over again……
Learn and deepen your practice of Moving True
In a class or workshop setting, we use live or recorded music, as well as verbal guidance, as an invitation into the shapes and patterns of each rhythm. The journey through a Rhythm Wave is our own. There is no choreography. The Rhythm Wave is a map. Your dance is your exploration of this map. And 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 suggestions, and the rhythms are tools used to bring us deeper into our body, deeper into our self-awareness, liberating our capacity to express, creating space to change and heal and experience who we truly are.
