Healing through Movement with 5Rhythms
Physical movement has long been recognized as a powerful tool for healing, both mentally and physically. One practice that has gained popularity in recent years is the 5Rhythms dance meditation. This dynamic movement practice combines freeform dance with mindfulness to promote healing and self-discovery.
What are the 5Rhythms?
The 5Rhythms are a series of movements or "states of being" that form the basis of this dance practice. They are Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness. Each rhythm represents a different energetic quality and invites participants to explore various emotions, sensations, and movements.
