Description

The 5Rhythms comprise a simple movement practice designed to release the dancer that lives in every body, no matter what its shape, size, age, limitations and experience. To find the dance is to find yourself, at your most fluid and creative level. While the practice itself is the essence of simplicity, it has the power to catalyze deep healing and creative expression. The primary teaching of this work is: If you put the psyche in motion, it will heal itself.

We offer teachers worldwide with schools in New York City, California and the United Kingdom.

Profile and Credentials

Gabrielle Roth is a noted artist, philosopher and healer. She has devoted her life to exploring and communicating the language of primal movement and experimental theater. Over the past 35 years, Gabrielle has taken thousands of people on a journey from physical and emotional inertia to the freedom of ecstasy, from the tyranny of the chattering ego-mind to the blessed emptiness of stillness. Her labs and retreats have an electric intensity that mates contemporary currents of rock music, modern theater and poetry to the ancient pulse of tribalism.

Philosophy and Comments

The five rhythms are: Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness. They come together to create the WAVE, a movement meditation practice. Rather than having steps to follow, each rhythm is a different energy field in which you find your own expression and choreography, thereby stretching your imagination as well as your body. Each rhythm is a teacher and you can expect to meet different and sometimes unknown aspects of yourself as your dance unfolds and your practice of the rhythms deepens over time.

The rhythms are the foundation of Gabrielle's body of work, a series of healing maps for the body, heart, mind, soul and spirit that provide a lifetime of self-discovery and a path to awakening. The 5Rhythms practice starts you on a journey and is the place to which your will always return.
