5Rhythms® Fundamentals
The embodied teachings of Gabrielle Roth
“Dance is my gateway to a deeper sense of unity and…it’s my gateway to more deeply live and occupy my body, my heart and my mind.” Gabrielle Roth
Gabrielle Roth was an ecstatic dance pioneer and a visionary. Her creation of the 5Rhythms moving meditation practice was one of the first awakenings of conscious dance practice. Since then, many other ecstatic dance practices have been spun off of her web. In this workshop, we return to the pure essence of Gabrielle’s teachings and dive deeper into her transformative and dynamic dance practice.
Beginners and seasoned dancers will have the opportunity to learn and embody each of the 5Rhythms: Flowing Staccato Chaos Lyrical Stillness™. Using the body as our tool and gateway, we will discover our personal expression of each Rhythm and how the 5Rhythms Wave™ can support us to move through any aspect of our lives.
This workshop is an invitation to witness and support each other to explore the teachings of the 5Rhythms practice – a journey of curiosity, personal revelation and self-healing.

The practice of the 5Rhythms® is a free style dance where we follow our inner dancer’s guidance in a dynamic moving meditation. There are no steps to learn or choreographic sequences to follow. Through the Rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness, we invite our bodies into conscious movement, releasing our thinking mind and tuning into the sensations of our body and our feelings stored within the body parts.
