About us
I offer 5Rhythms classes in Lisbon — a welcoming space to move, breathe, and reconnect with yourself through music, facilitation and free movement.
Created by Gabrielle Roth, 5Rhythms invites you to let your body guide you — to express what’s present, release what you’re holding, and simply be with whatever arises, without needing to get it right.
- Flowing — the ground beneath everything. Softness, trust, receptivity. Coming home to the body.
- Staccato — clarity and truth in motion. Direction, expression, the courage to take shape and speak through movement.
- Chaos — release. Letting go of control, thought dissolving into raw, honest movement.
- Lyrical — lightness after the storm. Creativity, openness, play, space returning.
- Stillness — presence. Deep listening. The place where everything settles and nothing is needed.
At the center of 5Rhythms is the building of community — a space where we move together, witness one another, and remember that we don’t have to go through life alone.
You are so welcome in this space — exactly as you are, with everything you’re carrying and everything you’re ready to leave behind.

5Rhythms® Dance | Move, Release, Reconnect
Centro Upaya, Calçada dos Sete Moinhos 143, 1070-223 Lisboa, Lisbon, PTEmerging Waves is a 5Rhythms® class where you are invited to move through the map of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness with simple guidance and space for your own expression.
Music becomes a key teacher, alongside the facilitator, supporting your movement practice as you explore the Waves in your own way.Rooted in the teachings of Gabrielle Roth, 5Rhythms® is a movement meditation and creative practice now shared by tens of thousands of people around the world. It is based on the understanding that when we move, we can shift, release, and reconnect. Movement becomes both medicine and metaphor—supporting presence, awareness, and insight through the body.
Each 2-hour class includes time to arrive and warm up, a fully guided wave through the 5Rhythms, and space for integration and grounding at the end.
Each rhythm offers a simple map for embodied exploration:
Flowing — arriving in the body, guided by the feet, building trust in the ground beneath you.
Staccato — shaping energy into form, finding clarity, direction, and expression.
Chaos — letting go into movement, releasing tension and allowing the body to unwind.
Lyrical — lightening and expanding into creativity, ease, and play.
Stillness — settling into quiet presence, listening through breath, weight, and subtle sensation.All bodies are welcome. All movement is welcome.
No experience required.Come as you are.
