Movement and stillness, sound and silence; life is filled with opposites. We are constantly oscillating between these opposites throughout our day, our year, our life; sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously, sometimes gracefully and sometimes with resistance.
Start the new year off on the right foot with 90 minutes of intentionally holding these seemingly opposite states of being. We will intentionally explore the rhythms of life through both movement and stillness, through both sound and silence. Join Dana and Rachel on Wednesday, January 7th 6:30-8pm at the Frank G. Murray Community Center on Wilmington Island.
This class will begin with grounding and centering. Once you have settled into your body, Dana with Soul Waves Studio will expertly guide you through 5Rhythms®. A Dance. A Movement Meditation. 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Each participant will do their own dance to "a wave" of music through the 5 rhythms of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness.
Once you reach the final rhythm of stillness, Rachel with Resonant Rest will serenade you with a soothing symphony of sounds designed to promote tranquility and healing. Himalayan singing bowls will be placed directly on your body to deepen your sense of the healing vibrations. As you rest, you allow both your body and your mind to unwind, let go, and integrate. Thus restoring a sense of inner balance and peace.
All 16 years or older are welcome! No experience required. There is no right way to move and there are no steps to follow. You dance and rest however your body wants to. A handicap or injury/issue can only teach you new ways to move. You just have to show up and let the dance do you.
Class is held at the Frank G. Murray Community Center at 125 Wilmington Island Road. Please arrive at least 5-10 minutes early to allow yourself time to settle in.
