About 5 Rhythm™ DanceGabrielle Roth has developed this work of creative, expressive dance over the last 30 years. The 5 Rhythms™ are called Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness and are a map of Life’s energies. The way we move creates the way we feel, think and live and vice versa! Moving with this practice is a practice of liberation and a journey into more of who we are. The first step is to uncover the Dancer. When we discover the Dancer we simply dissolve in the Dance. This is a metaphor for the Dance of Life too. Continuous doubting has no place when we find trust in how we feel, think, are! The Feminine or Mother is the Archetypal Teacher of this phase. All other phases builds on the first one. Staccato dances teach us about how to relate to others, how to sing our hearts song, how to speak up. Chaos teaches us about the necessity to let go and shed the skins of the past, so we can find our selves again anew. In Lyrical we have found our destiny in this life and we mature in it and with it. There is Freedom that comes from knowing direction and playfulness as we also know we can always change. Stillness teaches about our connection to Spirit and Death. We become prayer in movement. If you walk You can dance If you can talk You can sing
Everybody has a Dancer inside, no matter how young or old or if even you think ‘I can’t dance’! This practice is open to everyone and you don’t have to have danced ever! It is simple and beautiful, beautiful because it is simple and because beauty arises as soon as we meet! |
