Welcome to the 5Rhythms!

We meet to move and find ourselves at our most fluid and creative level. This is a simple and potentially profound practice and you can't get it wrong. It's a chance to explore for yourself, and everyone is welcome, regardless of age, fitness, ability or experience.

The 5Rhythms® of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness are different ways of moving that embody different ways of being in the world. Together, they form 'The Wave'; a simple movement practice that encourages us to find our own unique dance. Demos, exercises, & partner dances are woven into the Wave.

Take a look at the possibilities below: there are weekly and monthly classes in Philadelphia, and also workshops. Note that most dancers are not on the MeetUp.

If you are new to the 5Rhythms, we recommend the $5 COMMUNITY INTRODUCTION on Saturday Oct 17th at Studio 34 in West Philly. All Saturday classes -at Studio 34 and in Mt Airy- also welcome newcomers, as does the monthly 'First Friday' class.

All of these classes are open to old-timers too,of course, and if you have danced at least once before, you are welcome to our weekly practice class TUESDAY WAVES which continues (7pm - 9pm) at the beautiful Studio 1831, 1831 Brandywine Street 19130.

The Mt Airy monthly group (every 2nd Saturday except August) has been meeting for over two years and classes are usually 20-30 strong. Mt Airy Monthly is cheaper if you pre-register with Rebekah (RSVPing is NOT pre-registering). You can drop in to other classes, but the Nov-Dec series at Studio 34 will have a 4-for-3 class card.
