FlowState 5Rhythms: weekly dance and movement meditation!
Our regular home is SomArt's beautiful dance venue in the Hive, Somerville. (Note schedule below for details of when and where we dance apart from our usual calendar.)
Each class is an invitation to encounter and transcend the self by dancing the rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness - essential patterns and energy forms that provide their own medicine and teachings, all accessible through your spontaneous expression in motion. Your dance practice is guided by both a lovingly curated wave of music and orienting teaching from Joel.
Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 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. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community.
All are welcome. Bring water and wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move. Please no fragrances, scented detergents, or dryer wipes, due to sensitivities and allergies.
Tickets: $20 ($15 concessions - students and unemployed)
