In-Person Saturday Classes in Portland, Oregon
Unique Opportunity to Study with Vincent Martínez-Grieco IN-PERSON
Soul Motion® Next Steps Movement Inquiries
A note from Vincent:
“These classes will offer a new view of dancing. I have taken a refreshing look again at the dance from my early training in modern dance and yoga.
Next Steps Workshop: Hosted by Martin Steixner, SoulRhythms in Vienna
Join Vincent as he teaches this Origins Seminar towards a mindfulness, somatic, dancing practice
Here is what we will do:
We will cultivate mindfulness practices that use breath, imagination,
concentration, and a relaxed ground to gain access to a moving intrinsic
intelligence.
We will dance in ways that honor both the inside volume of a body and
the outside dynamics of a room, including its sounds, spaces, forms, and
elements.
Next Steps Urban Retreat: Led by Vincent Martínez-Grieco in Portland, Oregon
Join Vincent for this extended dancing experience in his jewel of a city!
The Dance Floor: This dancing practice is an iterative experience that concentrates on the freedom and variety inevitable in repetition. Not only does the body physically dance, but you will become attuned to the dances of the heart, of intuition, of service, of friendliness to self and others, and to freedom and fulfillment.
What do you know, just like that, it’s the last Monday Love newsletter of the year! (special holiday edition, a day late just like the post office or the garbage truck.)
I’m sure you are being inundated with year-end reviews and recaps right about now, so I will spare you another one of those.

When things are too much, we are designed to escape. In modern life, that tends to be distractions and thinking, numbing out with stimulants or depressants such as drugs, overwork, constant activity or consumption.
The time is Now: we’re in breakdown and breakthrough
Could we surrender to the reality that the world is far bigger than us?
That life is far stronger than us?
That we’re all in this together?
That in our desperate scramble for solutions and yet more control,
the truth is we don’t know how to get through this?
Relating to others — whether friends, lovers, enemies or colleagues — we get to find out how far we’ve come. It’s all very well to be enlightened sitting alone on a mountain top meditating, but . . .
When we are facing unknown futures on every level, when we’re scared, angry or hurting — that’s when we need steady ground within us.
That’s when we need an instinct for the truth, to find our way in the dark.
That’s when we need each other, to celebrate and count our blessings.
That’s when we need a strong practice, to turn obstacles into opportunities.
Loving is fierce! At least sometimes. To truly love, we have to be up for being passionate, disturbing the peace and giving our wild-hearted nature some breathing space.
We need harmonious connection with others, but we also have the need for authenticity, and because we are all different, we have to deal with conflict.
A year-long apprenticeship with Adam, as an in-depth exploration of the question “Who am I, deep down? What do I need? What can I give to the world?”
Using the full spectrum of the ZeroOne practice, you will get to clarify, deepen and strengthen your sense of purpose for your way in the world.

Cycles Exploration of the Rhythms of Life
The 5Rhythms offer us both a map to understanding and a way to deeply
embody the patterns, waves, and vibrations that organically move us from
birth to death.
You don’t need to know this story in order to dive in and use ZeroOne as a practice, and you certainly don’t need to understand the exquisite mathematical pattern that is its ‘operating system’, but in case you’re curious, here’s what I struggled with, and what came through despite my limitations.
My first step into movement as a practice was Osho’s ‘Dynamic Meditation’, but it was Gabrielle Roth’s work, the 5Rhythms, that grabbed me by both feet a few years later. Gabrielle was a major life-teacher for me. I was profoundly in love, and in awe, and utterly committed to her work. I never thought I’d leave.
Monday Love to your Solstice Serenity
“ This is the solstice, the still point of the sun, its cusp and midnight, the year’s threshold and unlocking, where the past lets go of and becomes the future; the place of caught breath.”

Join
Wren LaFeet, the dancer who brought Fusion to Port Townsend, for a day
of Fusion classes designed to inspire and uplevel dancers.
Wren is excited to be returning to his roots in Lindy Hop for
inspiration in these classes. Since 2012 he has been gathering many
different ideas into his brand of Fusion, called Cocréa. This day brings
together mindfulness, consent, energetic attunement and all the things
you likely love about Fusion dance already, including the juicy bass,
bumping music.
This week’s Dance First Insight is from Brietta Leader & WildCore!
My story highlights the memories, travels, communities and studies that led me to my path as a healing artist and conscious dance pioneer.
Some of my earliest memories were choreographing dances and bossing all my little cousins around to perform a Thanksgiving show for our family. Followed by being on High School Drill Team, Jazz Dancers L.T.D. in Spokane, WA and an Emphasis in Dance at The University of Idaho. Dance has been that consistent place to funnel emotions, unwanted thoughts and tons of creative energy. As a young girl I sensed the sisterhood, the discovery of my body, the art and intuition that naturally occurs when one dances.
How do you find the perfect gift? What’s the secret to truly delivering a knockout present? Why are some people more difficult to give to than others?
Well, this is the time of the year when we tend to think about such things, so it’s worth putting a little attention on the topic. As you well know, a well-timed and thoughtful gift far surpasses a big pile of useless junk or an impersonal gift card any day.
Start the New Year by dancing for 30 consecutive days to manifest the
new YOU! Ground yourself in PEACE and become PASSIONATELY ALIVE and
LOVING. Surrender to the unknown and dance to liberate your body and the
fiery passion in your heart.
In this course, we dance to integrate the 4 elements of earth, water,
air and fire, and drink from the wellspring of inspiring mystical
poetry.
