Waves & Wakes: Dancing with Ancestors 

Led by Sylvie Minot

“Breathing in, I see all my ancestors in me: my mineral ancestors, plant ancestors, mammal ancestors, and human ancestors. My ancestors are always present, alive in every cell of my body, and I play a part in their immortality.”

― Thich Nhat Hanh, The Art of Living

In this weekend-long 5Rhythms exploration, led by Sylvie Minot, we will dance with our ancestry which lives in our heart, soul, collective memory, and DNA. We will call on the wisdom and medicine of our lineage, the power of ancestral lands, and the spirit of the animal clans to guide our dance on this journey.

We beckon our bloodlines, spirit animals, and sacred guides to help navigate a magical ancestral journey. 

We will also incorporate Medicine Circle work into this dance journey.

Together, we will honor, given thanks, embody forgiveness and healing for ourselves, our ancestors and the land. We’ll honor and celebrate by moving our bones, blood, and bodies - a gift from our ancestors.

About 5Rhythms: Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform the suffering into art, art into awareness, awareness into action.

Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free.

Creativity, Connection, Community
