Description: 

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” -Mary Oliver

Come explore this question through the Waves map of the 5Rhythms and Somatic Expressive Arts. By sinking into the Waves intensive work with the body, we shake up, tease out, and coax the soul into a greater awareness and inspiration of what needs to be. Dance can be a tool for divination, for delving in deeper, for self knowledge. Dance and art can open the Wild Heart. We are excited to have you all move and be creative together! No dance experience necessary just a curiosity in moving the body!

About Teachers:

Debby Norton has been nurtured and transformed by the 5Rhythms practice since she first encountered it over 15 years ago. She has been on the teaching path for the last ten years, beginning with Sweat Spaceholder training and culminating with her 5Rhythms teacher training. She has danced countless hours and loves to hold space for the practice. Leading collaborative workshops is a great source of joy. She holds a weekly 5R Waves class in Charlottesville, VA where she lives with her historian husband, Peter Norton. They have two grown sons, Will and Paul. She has been a Montessori teacher at the preschool and elementary levels for the last 35 years. Her dance practice has sustained and fed her life as a classroom teacher. She loves reconnecting people with their inner child. She has also trained in Orff-Schulwerk music education, Chi Gong, The Way of Council, and ICU Personal Coaching. She teaches ukulele and early childhood music classes, and loves to sing and play.

Karen Chapman, Accredited 5Rhythms Teacher in Asheville, NC 

 Karen Chapman has lived, worked and played in Asheville, NC since 1998. I come from a family of teachers. I have been teaching 5Rhythms since 2016 and have been dancing for over 15 years. 

During my teaching years, I have been able to hold dance space over the years for Sweat Your Prayers. I have held a Waves Class in Hendersonville, NC once a month for 3 years. 

I am currently serving on the Volunteer Circle, which is a group of 5Rhythms teachers that help to sustain in keeping the 5Rhythms organization operational. 

I am currently serving on the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging team, also known as DEIB . We are a team of 5Rhythms teachers that want the 5Rhythms organizations to be more inclusive and provide safe dance spaces for all people. I am passionate about the 5Rhythms movement practice and want to keep teaching as long as I am able!
