"In the world, we often go through our days and our lives with our awareness focussed primarily on our own separateness. Our minds are occupied by our individual responsibilities and ambitions; and our connection to our bodies is tenuous or inconsistent. We rarely enjoy the feeling of being together with others; in a unified field within the flow of life. In this workshop, our focus will be on exploring and learning how to feel and recognize the unified field of our own bodies, as we move and play within the unified filed of a group. Through conscious movement, we'll discover new connections between the different parts of our bodies; and learn how to move as one dancing body. Next, we'll learn how to expand our awareness out to the group as a whole, without losing touch with ourselves. We'll bridge the two using our breath and expanded proprioception, allowing our attention to flow seamlessly from ourselves, to the group, and back, in a loop. When we loop in this way, while dancing together, we create a shared field of individual expression that naturally and easily becomes a playground for connection and creative collaboration. The feeling of the unified field is palpable, inspiring and deeply nourishing."

Statement of the participants of the past summer workshops Soul Flight:
“The dance of life goes on and it feels really joyful and exciting! What I find good and helpful for my daily life and practice: the movement in stillness, expressing a deep wish, a vision, an intention… clear and simple movement, carried by the breath! A great reminder to integrate the breathing even more! Thank you, Martina, for your openness, your honesty and spontanity, your big heart! And dear Anže, i have been touched by your loving care for our group, your clarity, your gentleness, also when you were teaching! Beautiful energy! All together has been so enjoyable, with swimming in the ocean and with the great boat trip! And the lovely camping place with this wonderful view! I wish you both much joy and love and hope to dance with you again.” Hanna
“Martina is a powerful teacher and catalyst, and the week in Izola was truly transformative. The synergy of dance and embodied practices with creative and expressive artwork was particularly valuable. I loved the diversity of the group just as much as the location. The way Martina and her partner and co-teacher Anže facilitated the retreat and held space for individual and collective processes was both highly professional and compassionately heartfelt. Although I've been practicing various conscious dance forms for many years, I am once again surprised by the transformative power of 5Rhythms and the guidance of dedicated and passionate teachers.” Laya Commenda
