We are dancing waves-within-waves this Thursday in an extended 5Rhythms movement meditation ceremony designed to connect, awaken, release, inspire, and center.
This - the Big Dance - is our finale for Full Cycle, the 5Rhythms Fundamentals series we have been running since the end of November. It doesn't matter if you have joined us for the whole series or are coming for the first time. It will be a special evening and you are fully welcome, no matter your level of experience.
There will be time to immerse fully in each rhythm, moving through all of its facets, to emerge embodied, present, and enlivened. The 5Rhythms, with their oscillation through different energy patterns, orientation, relational awareness, and embodied attention, form an accessible and authentic movement practice that serves cognitive, emotional, and somatic flexibility and transformation. They are your route to the root.
There will be lightly held structure to hold and support, with space to be free to your true self and dance - optional exercises and guidance are offered to help you deepen according to your choice and practice.
6:30pm-9:30pm, SomArt at the Hive, 561 Windsor St., Somerville.
Event and ticketing links are in the comments. Looking forward to moving and being moved with you!
