DESCRIPTION

Gabrielle Roth, 5Rhythms founder  

I always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific.

Lily Tomlin, Comedian

Overwork, overload, overwhelm. Trash, texting, tensing. Instagram, instant gratification, useless information. iCloud, IKEA, no idea. Compulsion, confusion, computer frozen. Modern life in a consumer society…

Do you find it hard to make decisions? Have trouble saying yes or no? Do you often feel misunderstood? Or make simple things complicated? 

This workshop will explore the physicality of the 5Rhythms inviting in the mountain of clarity that staccato teaches and the shimmering reflection of stillness. You will invigorate your dance practice, reclaiming a depth of clarity that is always there, concealed behind clouds of mental chatter. In movement we will make space, show up for ourselves and practice setting clear boundaries. Soften into confusion and create with a lightness of spirit. Find our alignment on the dance floor, in the body. 

There is no emoticon for presence. 

The 5Rhythms® map is an extraordinary landscape for movement possibility that awakes our soul and shines a brilliant light on the simplicity of being. Every body is a unique communication. So lets get clear. Together. 

David Juriansz brings a wealth of experience as a 5Rhythms dancer, facilitator, songwriter, musician and performer. His humour, storytelling and passion for the embodiment of the 5Rhythms, engages both newcomers and long-term dancers – his weekly class is one of the biggest in the 5Rhythms world. David has taught internationally and with his wife Meredith Davies is the co-founder of Moving Essence. 

Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythms has been a global movement practice for 40 years and Moving Essence started the first weekly classes in Melbourne 15 years. Workshops offer a deeper experience of this life-changing work.
