ELEMENTS
A 5 Rhythms® Retreat with Andrew Holmes
Earth, fire, water, air ~ the essential elements of all creation. And an enduring map of the way things are. Moving with these energies we remind ourselves that we too are part of the natural order. By aligning with their qualities, we recover a sense of ourselves as a natural process ~ powerful, beautiful, and simple: our feet on the ground, fire in our bellies, fluid in our sensibility, our dreams touching the sky.
The Lake District is a special place, where the elements are intimately present ~ the rock and water, the wind and sun. In the natural power and beauty of these surroundings, we’ll create a supportive community for deep, healing work. Inspired by the landscape that surrounds us, we’ll relax, breathe deep, and dance together, exploring how each of the elements lives in us, and how they can move through us.
We’ll look for a graceful balance of their energies, and the wisdom we receive from resting in their holding. And we’ll move in search of the rich, deep aliveness that comes from embodying each of these elements, as we drop ever deeper into the dance.

Venue Information - Borrowdale Institute
Set in the village of Rosthwaite in the heart of the Borrowdale Valley, our village hall makes the most of its beautiful surroundings.
Our Main Hall looks out on to traditional stone buildings and beautiful fells; it is a airy open space decorated in a neutral colour palette, with high ceilings and lots of natural light flooding through the large windows.
and our Community Room has large windows looking out on to open fields and fells. We have a large kitchen situated in the Community Room on the ground floor (next door to the Main Hall). Our ground floor is all on one level, including both external points of access from the car park and the main road.
