Earth Dance

14th-21st August

With Dawn Morgan Shapeshift 5 Rhythms (R)
With Nicolas Twilley Liminal Music
Assisted, organised and translated by Kama K

The intention of this Earth Dance is to invite you closer to your embodied essence, honouring connections with self, each other and the earth in a way that will positively transform your day to day life.
The intention of this earth dance is also to offer inspiration for body, heart, mind and soul and to celebrate life on earth!

Primarily we work with the dancing map of the 5 Rhythms, and we bring our combined 50 years experience of working with many movement techniques, sound and personal development.

The 5 Rhythms is a beautiful transformational dancing meditation that calls you into a deeper sense of presence with yourself, each other and your surroundings. Moving through the 5 rhythms releases what is stuck and strengthens who you are in essence. Your creativity and love of life is catalysed and revitalised by this simple and accessible practice.

Each day will be themed around one of the 5 Rhythms, flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, stillness; as we journey through the map of the 5 Rhythms we will deepen our understanding of ourselves and our place in the web of life within this earth dance.
We will work with the natural magic of the beautiful landscape surrounding the centre, we will work with an abundance of amazing music, and we will work with the amazing music of Nick Twilley, and his son Ra.
In the mornings the sessions will focus on the movement practice of the 5 rhythms.
In the afternoon sessions we will work with Nick as we refine, embody and integrate that which has emerged.
Evening sessions may include massage, singing and art.

This movement work is accessible and transformational, offering nourishment, support and artistry to what it is to be a human being on planet earth at this time.

Dawn is an accredited teacher of Gabrielle Roth's 5 Rhythms work since 1994 and is also trained in the advanced 'Heartbeat' level of this work. She has a degree in Psychology and is studying for an MA in Dance and Somatic Movement.

Nick has been offering transformational sound work for 30 years with teachers such as Gabrielle Roth, Chloe Goodchild and Leo Rutherford. He also offers his own sound/movement based work.

Kama is a long time student of the 5 Rhythms and other movement meditation practices, she is Polish but has also lived in the Uk for many years.

We look forward to moving with you.
