I can still feel the deep exhale in my body when I experienced 5rhythms for the first time 11 years ago.
It was like all my paths had led right to that moment, where a knowing in my bone marrow finally manifested into reality.
There was and always has been more to Dance than how it looks - as a young woman I knew this, but hadn’t tasted it yet.
That 5rhythms class in September opened the doors to an 11 year journey with dance where it has become a prayer, my medicine, and the healing modality that has set me free.
I have been facilitating somatic dance for 10 years now, teaching professionally for 14.
And time and time again I see women shape-shift from the dance.
They enter tense, closed off, strained eyes and pursed lips. They leave open, soft, relaxed shoulders and gentle eyes. Sitting closer to the women in the circle, connected and safe.
I have taught over 15,000 hours of dance and will never forget seeing women finally cry and let their emotions be felt through their bodies, thanking me after for what 10 years of talk therapy couldn’t do.
Our ancestors danced the dance of healing - in all cultures.
To meet yourself in your body, with pure devotion and curiosity is the greatest gift you can give to yourself.
And it will reward you again and again and again.
