Rituals of Belonging 3 - Collective
A 5Rhythms & Open Floor Workshop w/ Layah (5R) & Majero Bouman (OF)
In these times of disconnect and division, there is a yearning to come together--
To meet the living mystery of our collective unfolding,
And to move in the poetry of belonging.
What groups do we long to belong to? When do we claim or shame our belonging?
How do we dance with the known, unknown, and secreted stories of our peoples?
What does being in a group call forward in us, whether welcome or not?
How can our movement practice help facilitate affiliation and expand the dances of our collective belonging?
Together we will weave a weekend of individual, dyad, and ensemble exploring and remembering, supported by the 5Rhythms and Open Floor movement practices.
Amidst our culture of high speed “doing”, 5Rhythms movement meditation offers us space to let ourselves “be”. Time to touch in on what’s below the surface. To dowse for wellsprings of wonder. A place for a community of practice to emerge, with room for each of us to arrive as we are. A space to nourish, replenish, and ReSource.
Come, let’s gather by the waters of our shared love of movement. Let’s make space to honour the ebb and flow of griefs and joys that dance through us. Let’s rest into the pleasures of good grooves, and the good company of other dancing seekers of the sacred. Let’s empty out, and let’s fill ourselves back up, with some long deep drinks from the Well.
