About Dean
Certified 5Rhythms Teacher

Here's something about me and what I offer.. I spent years searching and exploring different meditation and movement practices until in 1996 I stepped onto a 5rhythms dance floor for the first time, once I stepped on I never stepped off. For me life Is the dance and the dance is life. I love this practice, simple and profound. I am not interested in being a beautiful incredible dancer and yet the more I dance the more I feel that, simply because of my experience of just "being" in movement. This practice is deeply therapeutic,healing, fun and ecstatic On the dance floor I feel free to explore my rage, my passion, humility and whatever else emerges from the dance, Whatever your age, size or shape, join me on the dance floor, all you need is a beating heart and a breathing body. I currently live and teach in Oxford, I offer weekend workshops across the uk.

About 5Rhythms

5Rhythms dance is a dynamic and transformative movement practice that invites participants on a journey of self-discovery and creative expression through dance. This unique form of dance, developed by Gabrielle Roth, is accessible to people of all ages, backgrounds, and levels of experience. It offers a powerful and holistic approach to movement that goes beyond just physical exercise.

The 5Rhythms are Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness, and they represent different energetic qualities that exist within us all. In a 5Rhythms class or workshop, participants are guided through these rhythms, allowing them to explore a wide range of emotions, sensations, and movements. It's not about learning specific steps or choreography; instead, it's about tapping into your body's innate wisdom and letting it guide you.

Through 5Rhythms, individuals can release pent-up emotions, reduce stress, and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. It fosters a sense of community and connection as people dance together in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. This practice encourages mindfulness, embodiment, and personal growth, making it a powerful tool for self-care and self-expression.
