FlowState 5Rhythms - weekly classes at SomArt at the Hive
Our class is a journey in movement through the rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness - essential patterns and energy forms, each with their own medicine and teachings accessible through your spontaneous expression in dance guided by a lovingly curated wave music with orienting facilitation.
Approximate timings:
- 15-30 minutes of warm up dance
- 15 minutes of gathering/teaching/introduction to the practice and theme
- 60-75 minutes main 5Rhythms wave
- 15 minutes closing circle (grounding ritual/sharing/brief announcements)
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 deodorants or detergents, or dryer wipes, due to sensitivities and allergies.
Tickets: $20 ($15 concessions - students and unemployed)
