In Each class we will explore through the form of the 5 rhythms the discipline of movement expression with awareness and focus.
This is a unique and dynamic way to free the body, clear the mind and express the heart.
No dance background is needed, there are no steps to learn, we find our own individual style of freestyle movement that comes from our body's instinct and our passion for the beat.

Important Announcement
Please note that the class will stop on July 10th for the summer and resume again on September 4th.

In this weekend Heartbeat Workshop we will explore emotion in motion through the art form, and map of Gabrielle Roth’s 5 rhythms movement practice. We will pay careful attention to physical movement, breath and relationship to each emotional energy of Fear, Anger, Sadness, Joy, and Compassion.

We will dance our "heart out", moving beyond the trappings of old wounds and shadows that keep us held back and suppresed to arrive in the true essence our heart’s expression.  Alchemy is a beautiful space with its own healing and nurturing environment that will hold and support us in this work. There is a healthy and delicious cafe too, for our well earned breaks!

Please bring a sense of humour and a willingness to look with fascination at our humanness!
