DESCRIPTION

I’ll introduce the practice of 5Rhythms and together we’ll explore movements that generate in us the sense of that rhythm, while also honouring the truth of our own bodies. We’ll explore different ways to support our body in the dance, using whatever is around us in the dance space, chairs, walls, steps, and you are welcome to bring aids that support your movement. I’ll introduce my model of the ‘democratic republic of the body’ as a way of honouring the whole body and the diversity of dances that reside within.

In the second workshop on Sunday July 21st we’ll be taking our exploration a little deeper, and I’m inviting other body practitioners (massage therapists, somatic practitioners, physiotherapists) who are also 5Rhythms dancers to share their perspectives on the body and the intersections between their particular body practice and the 5Rhythms, and together we’ll explore what we can learn from each other. Everybody is welcome to join this exploration as everyone, every body, has something to offer in this practice.

I strongly recommend that dancers and body practitioners book onto both workshops to get the greatest benefit, but if that is not possible please contact me and together we can make the best decision for you, me and the group.

Prices: I really want to make these workshops as accessible as possible. My standard rate is £30 for a workshop, but if that is more than you can afford please do contact me as exchanges of different kinds are possible. Body practitioners who join the July workshop will receive a considerable discount in exchange for their participation. Contact me for details.
