Dear dancer,
For the past 26 years, I have continuously studied with Gabrielle Roth, Jonathan Horan, and a few key mentors. To deepen this rich experience, I have also trained as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.
Resilience is an Elective workshop within the 5Rhythms curriculum that brings these two modalities together in one intensive weekend. It thoughtfully integrates Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms and Peter A. Levine's Somatic Experiencing—both powerful methodologies respectfully woven together while honoring their authentic origins.
Resilience takes place in Rotterdam (NL) from September 19–20, 2026. An early bird discount is available until spots fill up. Visit the website for details and registration.
I look forward to dancing with you!

Anger, Intimacy & Love (HB)
24 - 25 Oct 2026, Sofia (BG) & 14 - 15 Nov 2026 Belgrade (RS) |
Emotions serve as vital sources of strength and guidance in our lives. Anger, in particular, helps us recognize and honor our boundaries, and empowers us to defend what we cherish. There is something profoundly personal about expressing anger in a healthy manner — it is not about blame or humiliation, but rather about heartfelt communication that safeguards our integrity. Saturday 24 - Sunday 25 October 2026, Sofia (BG) & Saturday 14 - Sunday 15 November 2026 Belgrade (RS). Read more or sign up.

5Rhythms as a Practice
Waves, Heartbeat, Cycles, Mirrors, Silver Desert
|
Gabrielle Roth developed the 5Rhythms and led workshops around the world for more than 40 years. Gabrielle created several layers within the 5Rhythms: Waves, Heartbeat, Cycles, Mirrors and Silver Desert. With these she guided dancers through Body, Heart, Mind, Soul and Spirit.
Waves: body and presence – being and body.
Heartbeat: emotions and love – feeling and heart.
Cycles: life phases and knowledge – knowing and intuition.
Mirrors: inspiration and perception – seeing and soul.
Silver Desert: healing power and spirituality – health and spirit.
I highly recommend exploring these maps to discover the depth of the 5Rhythms practice. Life is a dance—immerse yourself in it and turn the dance floor into your laboratory.
