“Our common thing.”
Honest because it requires real presence, uplifting because we listen to each other, comforting because we support each other. 5Rhythms is an informal dance that invites you to bring it to life, with your life. We play, we experiment, we set our desires in motion, we give space to our hopes. Dancing is about becoming alive. And in dancing together we become a living community.
Each year, One Tribe retreats provide an opportunity to dance together, to be together in an uplifting way. There are always new people to the dance and many have been coming back for years. In addition to the intensity of the dance floor, there is always time to be together outside the sessions, whether in the forest, on the banks of the Danube or in a pastry shop.
Here you can learn about 5Rhythms, about yourself through it, open your heart and mind to change and leave a new person, empowered. And you can get to know others, meet others like you, enrich your connections during these few days.
Gabrielle Roth’s movement map will be our guide on the retreat. This decades-old method provides a solid foundation and much inspiration in dance for all of us. The rhythm of chaos invites us to surrender to the unpredictable swirl of life, to throw ourselves into all that is simply good. As Gabrielle Roth, creator of 5Rhythm, puts it:
“Chaos can be wild and expressive or it can be a physically less demanding dance, a more internal process with shaking, vibration and releasing. Either way, the mind empties out of the head and into the body, awakening our intuition.”
No prior knowledge or dance experience is required, all are welcome.
