Spring is here and as the light grows stronger the shadows can become more visible. In this workshop we will reveal and explore the shadow of the psyche by articulating it through movement. By embodying this territory we can begin to see where we remain stuck and learn to bring movement and life to stagnant energy. Having familiarised ourselves with the terrain, we will offer up the aspects of the self that no longer serve us, to the fire of purification and set intentions and directions for new growth.
We will dance in the beautiful Bassenthwaite Hall and end with a fire by the lake. It is recommended that this workshop is taken in conjunction with the previous evening's wave: however if this is not possible and you have already delved deeply into 5 Rhythms movement practice, you may be able to join us for the Saturday only. Please discuss this with us in advance.
Bring: food to share; comfortable clothes for dancing; warm, outer wear for the closing ceremony; your whole self; willingness to move and be moved.
If you are travelling from afar to attend both the Friday and Saturday sessions, you can stay in the hall on the Friday night.

We will dance a 5 Rhythms wave paying particular attention to our comfort zones and the places we find less easy and familiar. This evening will prepare us for the Saturday workshop on the shadow by heightening awareness of some habitual patterns, but can be a stand-alone class.
We'll have Live Music by Catherine Reding, so don't miss it!

We’re in the season that the poet e e cummings called
“In Just-spring……
when the world is puddle-wonderful.”
We’ll be dancing in the Stillness of a world still partly winter-quiet and interior, with the first stirrings of growth and beginnings that we call Flowing, the Staccato of the first shoots pushing through to the light, the Chaos of sleet…snow…sunshine…wild winds… smirring rain; and the Lyrical of snowdrops, primroses, even early daffodils. We’ll be dancing in the Stillness of Still-winter, in Just-spring.
Come dance a Spring Wave ...

Here's a chance to dance in a new venue for us - in a good location for travellers, and we welcome Mark, a new 5Rythms teacher-in-training who's been working with Andrew Holmes and the international 5Rhythms movement. Mark will be offering two classes in Penrith. his approach is to keep things simple and down-to-earth. The theme of the first class will be "Ground" and the theme of the second class on 23rd March will be "Sky". These will be independent drop in classes and you can join for either or both.
"I believe that moving and reconnecting with the body is the best medicine for the ills of modern life."

a high energy, cleansing evening wave with Jean Rankin.
find your natural rhythm move, sweat, pray ground, connect, release embody, breathe, shine share, heal, love . . .
Gabrielle Roth created the 5Rhythms moving maps to help us all find our full, natural expression, heal our wounds and become engaged, intuitive humans who are part of the solution here on planet earth.
Jean was trained by her in 2007/8 and has been teaching ever since, continuously learning and growing in her understanding of the maps, which she communicates clearly, with warmth and humour.
Hope you can come to the following day too! Ask us about staying in the hall overnight (free), or alternatively look here for suggestions for other accommodation.

I dance because I love the freedom, truth and wakefulness I find through movement, the sense of connection to all that I am, to others and to life itself.

Bring your day, bring your week, bring your life, and just let yourself dance! An evening of 5 Rhythms®, open to all.
I started dancing the Rhythms in 1999; love at first sight! The podgy child who had been put out of ballet class because she couldn't do the splits had at last found a place where she was allowed - encouraged, even - to dance! And her two left feet were given the freedom to do whatever they wanted to do - which was to dance her into a sense of freedom in her whole life.
NB: If you book for both Friday and Saturday, we'll send you a discount coupon for your next booking.
It’s possible for up to 12 dancers to stay overnight in the hall for free, so get in touch if you'd like to do that.
