Inner Wave: Movement as Meditation.
Sundays 9-10 am This is a drop-in class
The Inner Wave is a time to come and be held in the intimacy of the personal dance. No interruptions, no partnerships, no distractions. Just the body in motion to the rhythm of the Wave. The motion is the meditation. With a gentle unfolding of uninterrupted music we move through the rhythms as individuals within the collective field.


Sweat Your Prayers
Sundays 10:30am-12 This is a drop-in class
This high-energy, uplifting dance celebration of life and community is the perfect antidote for the chaos of life. In Sweat Your Prayers you are free to follow your own dance as we move our bodies into unity with ourselves, each other, and the world around us.


Group Practice
Mondays 7-9pm This eight-week class meets Monday nights and opens on the first Monday of every other month. This class requires a Monthly or Session Pass.
This class offers a time to be in community, to see and be seen, to move and be moved, to witness, and to offer the gift of your dance. New students are welcome to join but must first have a converation with the teacher.


Riding the Wave
Tuesdays7-9pm This is a drop-in class
Much like the Waves class on Thursday night but with the playfully provacative flavor that Shawn brings to the dance. In this easy to digest and high energy evening, explore how to catch the Wave and ride it through to a joyful and expansive experience.

Waves
Thursdays 7-9pm This is a drop-in class
The 5Rhythms are a movement meditation that takes us through 5 different ways of moving our bodies that, put together, form a wave of energy. We dance through the waves of life, finding our flow, shaping our bodies, releasing into the gift of surrender, and finding ourselves lighter, fuller and richer through the experience.In this way we practice the dance of life.



About the 5Rhythms
Dance Classes:
This is a comprehensive program designed for all levels of student from beginner to advanced. Designed for all levels of participation from someone who just wants to feel freedom and joy in their body, to someone who takes this work on as their physical and spiritual practice.

The 5Rhythms Wave was developed over 30 years ago by dancer, theater artist, and musician Gabrielle Roth, and is currently taught in countries all over the world.

The 5Rhythms Wave is a movement practice designed to allow participants freedom and joy in their bodies and in their lives. Through the blend of free-form movement and the rhythms of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, and stillness, we dance the 5Rhythms Wave. In this practice participants experience themselves as fully alive and satisfied.

Our 5Rhythms Program allows participants to attend classes that suit their schedules and needs, ranging from the uplifting experience of Sundays Sweat Your Prayers to a monthly pass which allows full immersion into the transformative power of dance.

All bodies, all ages, always. No dance experience is needed; what is needed is a willingness to discover yourself in motion; fluid, focused, free, fascinated, and fulfilled.
