Join us on the autumn equinox to dance a sunset 5Rhythms dance session out under wide open skies, a step sun goes down over the ocean.
This session will be a gently facilitated mindful movement class. We will dance outdoors in a contained spot amongst the trees at the very back of Lighthouse Fields park area using silent disco headsets- getting embodied on earth, using movement and music to call us present to the pleasure of being alive:)
This will be an ongoing series of seasonal outdoor dance celebrations. The dates will be
Sunday 21st September 530-700pm
Sunday October 5th 500-630PM
Sunday Nov 2nd -330-500PM
Sunday 21st Dec -300-430PM
Sunday Feb 1st- 400-530PM
Sunday March 22nd -600-730PM
In 5Rhythms dance there are no steps to learn, nothing to get right, just doing the dance that only you can do.
It will be a designated non-verbal dance space to support us in dropping in deep ( ie. it is NOT a “hang-out and picnic and chat and have a few beers while I boogie” type of headset event!
You will be invited into presence, into practice, into the preciousness of dancing out under wide open skies :)
'And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair'- Khalil Gibran
530-7pm. $20 cash or venmo onto door.
We will use “in ear” silent disco headsets transmitters.
We will be located on the side of the main huge field -furthest from the ocean- hidden in the trees near where Liberty Street meets Peyton Ave.
We will be dancing throughout at the back of the the main field -( ie NOT on the very busy little lawn right by the lighthouse- it is way too busy down there to meet and dance deep down there..)
