Hi! I'm Rebecca Young, and I love to move and dance.  I love the sheer joy of spontaneous and honest expression that I experience through movement and dance. I love to share this with people. Upon discovering the 5Rhythms, I fell in love. I fell in love with my willingness to Show Up despite feelings of  vulnerability and awkwardness. I fell in love w/ others as I witnessed their willingness to Show Up and be real. I fell in love w/our collective willingness, our collective courage, integrity, beauty, and grace. Through the 5Rhythms Maps, the dance, the practice, and through my body, I experience grace, over and over again, within myself, within others, and in community. 5Rhythms is my working template, creating authenticity, art, and love over and over again. I've been practicing 5Rhythms for 30 years & teaching for 10 of them.  I live in Virginia, in the Shenandoah Valley, nestled up to the Blue Ridge Mountains. I thrive in nature, and rural living with my boyfriend, Willie, Gracie, the cat, Bear & Lily, the pups, and 4 chickens, still needing to be named. I hope to share a dance with you.
