Form, Flow, Freedom
Dallas, TX

"Energy moves in waves. Waves move in rhythms. Rhythms move in patterns. Patterns move in cycles. A human being is just this. Nothing more. Nothing less. A dance.” -- {Gabrielle Roth}


ABOUT: Form, Flow, Freedom

In times of great change many of us search for a sense of freedom. It is important to have a practice to assist us in navigating the inner and outer terrain of life. The 5Rhythms offers us just this. It is a map to understanding the process of change. This is a journey in which we explore improvisational movement, accompanied by music and guided facilitation. 



In the heart of Flowing we connect to the feminine nature within. Here with bone, blood and breath, we look to the body to lead us to our intuitive selves. We bring life to the feet, unlocking the door to our uniqueness and individuality. 



How can we create fluidity in this body? How does fluidity awaken freedom? If we can find freedom in the body, then is it possible to find it in the heart and mind? 



The dance floor becomes the mirror, reflecting where we are and where we wish to be. Through using the medicine of ones own Flowing movements, you can foster connection to your own inner wisdom and authenticity. 



In this workshop we will integrate the stillness of Buddhist mindfulness meditation with the moving meditations of the 5Rhythms®. The Buddha encouraged us to bring wise attention to every aspect of our lives. 



In sitting meditation, we have the opportunity to observe the mind and body at rest through silent introspection. In the practice of the 5Rhythms, we engage in mindfulness while in motion. The 5Rhythms is a map that teaches how energy moves. The two polarities of moving and sitting meditation together mirror the dance of life and open the door to peace, well being and balance.
