5rhythms Dancing into spring workshop .
5+6 April 2025
Venu : LOXODOX . Zαιμη 38 Εξάρχεια Athens.
Dancing is a form of expression, and we all have our relationship with it. Some of us can’t live without it, some of us like it occasionally and some will stay away from it no matter what.
Growing up we all danced. As kids most of us, had lots of freedom to be silly, preform or just play. But as we grow up, dance changes and becomes a social event. We dress up to go dance. Dance MUST be beautiful, charming, fashionable and of course sexy. For some it will be rebellious and wild, for some a way to avoid talking. For most of us, dance becomes a performance and fails to be an expression of freedom. Like with anything else in life. We hold on to what is comfortable and try to stay away of what feels unsafe.
So just when spring is knocking at the door, let’s try to imitate nature and let the “new” and “unsafe” find its way through the surface and sprout.
In those 2 days of 5rhythms, we will look for new shapes of moving. We will try to find within ourselves the seeds of what we never dared to express, water them softly, hold on to faith
and patience, waiting for the seeds to germinate.
------------------------------------------------------------------
5rhythms is a free dance practice. It’s done in a group to amplify and imitate life. We tend to dance the same way we live. Dancing the 5rhythms can shed light on areas in our life we
tend to keep in the dark, therefor guiding us to more awareness.
It’s an easy practice, in the sense that there is nothing to learn, no steps no choreography to follow. We all know how to dance, no matter what our physical ability is.
We will provide a safe space to express whatever is there for you waiting for a chance to emerge.
Its Drug and alcohol free, and mostly includes no talking.
The practice is called 5rhythms, simply because we dance through 5 different rhythms. Each of the rhythms has a different energy and will have a unique flavor for each individual.
The rhythms are, Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, Stillness. Dancing through the 5rhythms one after the other is called a wave.
We start in Flowing slowly connecting to our roots feeling deeply into who we are. Only then we can find clarity, intention and passion during the Staccato part.
In Chaos, there is an invitation to let go of all the unnecessary tension we carry, so we can lighten up in Lyrical to find expansion, joy and ecstasy. Then Stillness will bring about centering and healing through the vastness of the empty space.
