What we’re about
# Creative, improvised movement for body, heart and soul.
Gabrielle Roth’s Five Rhythms Ecstatic dance is a relaxing releasing workout for mind, body and spirit. Let go of your mind and let your body take you into your wildness, your tenderness, your joy – with yourself, with others. Come home to the ground of your being. Somewhere in you the dancer is waiting, waiting to be recognised and given life in movement. All you need is to move and let the music touch you. Where earth and sky meet – that’s you – alive in your dance!
The class is warm and welcoming, and comprised of around 20-40 dancers people who dance regularly as well as a continuing flow of new people.
