A weekly drop-in 5Rhythms® dance class
Every Tuesday • 8-9.30pm
Yoga Desa, 120 N Topanga Canyon Blvd, Topanga, Ca, 90290
Come and move to wonderful music, to release all your stress, to get a workout, to give yourself the chance to re-discover who you are moment to moment. Come and sweat, come and let go, as you empty your mind and find your feet.
Each class is an opportunity to explore the amazing map of Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms and to allow your needs to be physicalized as they rise up through your marrow and muscles.
Real healing begins when we commit to ourselves and our dance. So however or whomever you are, gift yourself an opportunity to dance out the known and unknown.
All shape and sizes are welcome. Teenagers to elders. No movement experience required.
Please refrain from wearing perfumes. Free Parking available. Bring a bottle of water. Wear loose comfortable clothes and a soft dance shoe or barefoot.

You are invited to a morning of movement meditation. An opportunity to ride the Wave. The 5Rhythms are a moving medicine wheel that guide you deeply into the inner landscapes of your body, mind and heart and invite you to physicalize the stories held in these places. Allowing yourself the opportunity through movement to arrive at a place of equanimity.
Gabrielle Roth, the creator of the practice believes that 'If you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself 'and she saw that most western minds found it challenging to simply sit and find peace and just as yoga was created to loosen the body in preparation for sitting meditation, Gabrielle saw that we were governed by beat and bang and the 4 x 4 beat of rock and pop. And she believes that if we engage our minds and drop into the beat we will find the still point we are all longing for.
This practice is not just for 'Dancers', this work is for all bodies, shapes and sizes. All ages and physical abilities. Truly, it simply requires some curiosity and willingness to explore what is just beneath our skin. To allow many musical landscapes to guide you through the map of the Rhythms which are: Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness.
This is a laboratory of seeing oneself with fascination. To meet oneself and others in all our humanity. So come and unwrap the stories that are tattoed into your blood and allow your creativity to rise up into physical form.
Please wear loose comfortable clothes, a soft shoe or barefoot. Bring a bottle of water. Please refrain from wearing heavy perfumes or jewelry.
3-7 July
Nosara, Costa Rica
On July 3rd - 7th we will gather in the lush raw lands of Nosara, Costa Rica at the Costa Rica Yoga Spa to reclaim the lost parts of ourselves that knock at the spirit door of our bodies. We will come together to take Refuge from the world of doing in order to arrive into the nourishing space of being. We will set out on a holy pilgrimage to retrieve the long forgotten places of our souls and to allow our most intimate and essential selves to be expressed through ritual and creative action. With the5Rhythms® as our vessel we will reclaim the body as our temple, unveiling the layers of tales that need to be told, allowing the dancer, storyteller, artist and healer to weave itself into form.

30 November - 2 December
Sacramento, Ca
In UNVEILED we will practice the art of relationship with self, with other and with the collective. Using the 5 Rhythms we will allow ourselves to be moved by the timeless stories of the tender heart, the potent mind and the all knowing body.
Dropping into a pool of inter-connected being, we will seek to strip away our 'coping masks', finding the courage to embody what is really going on in the moment. To discern between what is choice and routine in our behaviour and to experiment with our edge in perception.
Housed in the map of the dance we will encounter ourselves and the world beyond our own envelope listening to the whispers of our body, the thrum of our minds and our yearning for simplicity.

"Kate’s practice of weaving shamanic healing with the 5Rhythms dance creates a space where nothing short of revelation and inspiration is possible. In any of Kate’s workshops, she facilitates the sacred and the profane. I clear my schedule any time Kate is in Olympia. I would do the same wherever I lived in the world precisely so I could live better in this world."
Sandra Yannone, Poet and Educator
