This month we will be exploring our movements with threads that enliven our interconnectivity. What does this mean? Interconnectivity as a term is quite simple, it means the state or quality of being interconnected. My interest is in how we feel it within the organism of our body.
In my recent studies with Liz Koch, author & educator of the Psoas. I realized that I am ready to let go of any mechanized language in reference to the body, I am ready to shatter any compartmentalization I may have created when thinking about body, mind, spirit, emotions.

“Movement is change. In my experience, if you put your psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is the medicine. Each of us has the power and responsibility to heal ourselves, to be our own medicine man or woman. Awakening our innate powers of being, loving, knowing, seeing and healing involves ongoing work at all levels and in all dimensions of our self.”

5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice where we seek to liberate ourselves from the monkey mind of thought and encourage our sensational, intuitive and natural selves to lead the way. To embody the 5 basic rhythms of Flow, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness helps us to understand ourselves better and assists us to move with the ups and downs that life offers with grace and presence.'

This week’s Dance First Member Spotlight is from Jennifer Joy Jimenez creator of TranscenDance!
Dear Dancers
One of my favorite quotes is from Gabriel Roth’s book “Maps to Ecstasy”:
“So the body is where the dancing path to wholeness must begin. So many of us are not in our bodies, really at home and vibrantly present there. Nor are we in touch with the basic rhythms that constitute our bodily life. We live outside ourselves – in our heads, our memories, our belongings – absentee landlords of our own estate. A brochure I saw at a chiropractor’s office says: ‘If you wear out your body, where are you going to live?” – Gabrielle Roth.

In
this 5Rhythms® workshop, we will dance the first rhythm of flowing,
exploring what fear has to teach us and how we can be courageous.
About this Event
5Rhythms®: Flowing Courage

In this 5Rhythms® workshop, we will dance the second rhythm of staccato , exploring how anger gives us the opportunity to forgive.
About this Event
5Rhythms®: Staccato Forgiveness

most vulnerable.” Join us as we dance into the power of our individual
Staccato nature. It is this powerful space that allows us to touch into

In this 5Rhythms® workshop, we will dance the third rhythm of chaos, exploring what grief has to teach us about surrendering to our hearts.
About this Event
5Rhythms®: Chaos, Grief Dancer
Gabrielle Roth taught, “The only way out, is through”. The rhythm of Chaos invites us to surrender to something larger than our individual selves. Have you been telling yourself to “let go”? Have you been waiting to release the weight and sorrows of your past? The sacred nature of Chaos breaks down barriers and lets these flood gates loose.

The state of being in Lyrical is a result of the Chaos dance. Resting in the aftermath of the chaos, we are delivered into the openness of Lyrical. This goes beyond choreography. It is purely a feeling, a simple state of being. Here we align with the nature of change, practicing the art of becoming an agile athlete of life. Lyrical brings us into the spirit of shape shifting so that we can rewrite our stories and recreate our reality and relationship to what is.

5Rhythms®: Still Compassion
Stillness opens the door to the connection to self, partner, community and the divine unknown. The state of Stillness dissolves all rhythms into oneness. It is here that we touch into the great emptiness that unifies all aspects of life. We touch into the truth of impermanence, the sacred thread of birth, life and death.

5Rhythms®: Emptiness Dancer
Dance until the dancer disappears and only the dance remains ~ Osho
At the core of Gabrielle Roth’s teachings, she believed that when we get out of our own way, the true dance begins. Our bodies are a vehicle for powerful spirit to come through. The dancer is here to dance free of the ego and past, so that we can live fully in the present.
To dance is to address healing on all levels, body, mind, heart and spirit. In order for an integrated healing to take place, all quadrants needs to be addressed. As we heal what we have lived through, we can begin to see the present moment with clarity. In achieving this, we can live fully, in passion and without fear.

Set in an enigmatic space containing a bathtub, we initially see an interplay between the water and each dancer as they tentatively touch, experience, and immerse themselves in it. Filmed on location in a warehouse in St. Paul, the dancers eventually transcend the confines of the tub to the floor of the space. Moving deftly between the pillars they jump, run, and sway.

This week’s Dance First Member Spotlight is from Maneesha McClure, creator of Dance Alchemy!
Hi, Lovers of Dancing!
I am new here and am happy to be part of the Dance First community! As the proud creator of Dance Alchemy, I’ve seen firsthand how dance and movement can impact a person’s overall well-being. Dance Alchemy focuses on how dancing can transform – on how, through dance, we can fully live within each moment. It’s also about opening up and moving deeper into a space beyond the ups and downs of everyday life. My work has usually been organized by meditation centers in various places around the world.

How do you define freedom? Is it different than liberty? How do justice, equality, and agency fit into the picture?
Today here in the USA we honor the legacy of the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. with a bank holiday, meaning schools, government offices, and the post office are all closed. For an every-Monday writer like me, it’s a good time to publicly ponder what his work was all about, how it changed our world, and what it means moving forward. Let’s not forget how central the theme of love was to his work moving the cause of civil rights forward.

We would like to invite you to this series of monthly live online free classes of Dance Alchemy with Heart Meditation.
As we are bombarded from everywhere with information, opinions,
political upheaval, fighting, angst, drama and unconscious actions, it
feels like the only thing worth putting energy into in our lives is
love, transformation and consciousness. Perhaps instead of being knocked
down, we can ride on those waves towards that which is beyond all this.
It is more powerful when we do it together. Let’s transform and rise high as we dance and go deep into the heart!
Each month we will be working with a new topic – then listening and receiving the grace that descends.

“Energy flows where attention goes” — Hawaiian Kahuna wisdom
That’s a profound insight into the nature of things. There are times when it’s useful to focus on what doesn’t work or what’s painful, to bring it up and sort it out. But . . . our brains have a hard-wired negativity bias, drawing our attention to problems. As a survival strategy in the wild, where the ‘news’ comes from our immediate environment, that works really well. As modern humans, we get fed bad news by the media that’s way out of proportion because it’s so far from here-and-now, and that makes us sick.

5Rhythms®: Staccato Forgiveness
In Gabrielle Roth’s own words, “We are the strongest, when we are the most vulnerable.” Join us as we dance into the power of our individual Staccato nature. It is this powerful space that allows us to touch into the strength of our inner vulnerability.
This dance is an investigation into the sacred nature of our healing path. How have you been hurt in this lifetime? How have your boundaries been crossed? As we dance we focus the somatics of healing core wounds. In doing so to face what needs to be accepted and forgiven.

This week’s Dance First Member Spotlight is from Sofiah Thom, creator of the Temple Body Arts™ School for Embodied Feminine Leadership.
Dear Conscious Dancer tribe,
2020 left so many of us feeling powerless…
We watched as the old systems and structures began to crumble and fall. If there is anything that navigating the pandemic and 2020 has taught us, it is how to continually shift and pivot in a different direction. But we must create space to listen, before moving forward. As we enter 2021, we must ask ourselves, what are we leaving behind in 2020, and what are we calling in? Recently, through an injury, I was forced to pause and listen deeply, and I now recognize the importance of creating space to pause and reflect on how we are called to move forward, collectively.
