New York

For 20+ years, the streets of New York City have been Gabrielle & Jonathan's laboratory, daily community, and the inspiration that is the 5Rhythms body of work and vision.

Our NYC teachers service the dynamic, diverse and dedicated tribe you could expect to make their way onto our dancefloors here. It provides a refuge of rhythm for those who are hungry to maintain a real self within the creative pulse, urban edge, and tribal soul of Manhattan. There is no more exciting place on earth, as it perfectly mirrors the complexity and challenges we face when we look within. Our NYC offerings of daily classes, short and long form workshops are available to dance you through all levels of the 5Rhythms every year.

Fire in the Belly

New York - 3 Jan 2025 to 5 Jan 2025
Karen Ritscher

In this Heartbeat workshop, we will reignite our desires and dreams

While exploring and hopefully clearing all that may obscure or extinguish our passion.

As we get older and experience the wear and tear and disappointments that life so often feeds us, we may have lost some of our own commitment to the truth found in our heart-belly. Over the three days, we will lovingly work with what may hold us apart from our authentic source of power. We will source our courage to feel deeply, and act as if our life depended on it, because we know it does!

“My dance is my connection to the divine.”

“Movement is the universal language of the heart”

“I believe that everyone should have a grounding practice, whether it’s meditating or playing basketball or walking around the neighborhood.”

“Dive deep and take every opportunity to lighten up!”

“The dance offers the most alive and creative field in which to connect with self and Spirit: both wildly sacred and blessedly fun!”

“Listen to your life, see it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness. Touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis all moments a”
