Join us for the winter toolbox & deeply nourish yourself! You can choose the time of the day that suits your schedule best.
In this 6-week class series, we will discover the map of the 5Rhythms and work with a different theme each week. Together we’ll explore some of the unique gifts each of the rhythms has to offer to help us navigate through the season.
Not only will this add a layer of nourishment to your dance practice, but you’ll be able to enlarge and refine your personal set of tools which will support you as a resource in these uncertain and challenging times.
