Chinese proverb

​

To define the concept of polarity, it is useful to consider two behaviors as separate, as split: incapable of coexisting.

The practice of the 5 Rhythms invites us to accept that they can "complement each other".

The 5 Rhythms practice treats opposites as part of a whole, like yin and yang, shadows and lights, our polarities can co-exist as parts of a whole.

The list of polarities is endless, but perhaps one of the most important and common polarities in movement practice is that of body and mind. This weekend workshop gives us the opportunity to tap into the Rhythms so that they can teach us about unity, our own unity: body, mind, but also heart, soul and spirit.

To welcome our fluidity versus our rigidity, our clarity versus our confusion, our capacity of letting go versus our control, our lightness versus our heaviness, our silence versus the noise within us.

Then we're ready for Integration and assimilation, then we're ready to feel complete again, to feel whole.
