Sexual rape is like a large tattoo on the soul. It takes all your freedom away in just a few minutes. Not only sexual rape but “any abuse” can affect our sexual holy place.

5RTA | June Teacher Spotlight

June 1, 2019

29 years ago I arrived on a 5Rhythms dance floor with a background in a handful of ballet, my arms & legs full of sports & my whole body full of African & Contemporary dance. I was familiar with improvising movement but not in connection with my emotions. It was the rhythm of Chaos that opened my heart & allowed me to release the shackles of the emotional straight jacket I was living in.

5RTA| May Teacher Spotlight

Looking back, I see that I was engaged in an important struggle. My autonomy was vital – the space to be as I am, self-directed and free to express and dance in my own way. Belonging was vital – needing the nourishment of a tribe – and wanting to explore what happens when we are who we are together. Surrendering to the dynamic flow between these needs was my struggle.

5Rhythms Tribe | April 2019

“To the beat of the drum we travel on

Courageous we sail into the storm

Singing our song and feeling strong

On a voyage to where we all belong”

~Morcheeba – Beat of the Drum

I have always felt hopelessly attracted by the rhythm. I bought myself a pair of drumsticks when I was 6 – it was my first owned part from an entire drum set.

Then I got distracted following 1000 other threads: studies, ballet classes and a huge list of projects and ’to do things‘.
