WORKSHOPS

The 5Rhythms is a dynamic movement practice, a dance beyond a dance. Workshops offer a container to dive into the 5Rhythms map and explore the tapestry of our lives.

release

17 may

  • The weight of what we carry longs to be released and given back to the earth.

    Join me on this day long workshop where our dance becomes the vehicle for the bodies innate capacity to release. Together and alone, we will indulge in the moments of letting go that are small, soft, slow and gentle; as well as the moments that shake us from within, hitting us hard, fast and wild.

(the) Resistance

19 April

  • Resistance is not straight forward.

    On this day workshop we’ll be exploring the tapestry of what we’re resisting.

    The things we have good reason to avoid; and the things we are fighting to have more of.

    Transforming the difficult into the defying and bolstering permission to anything we’re repressing.

  • £50 early bird

    £60 regular ticket

DANCER ON BODY|SANCTUARY WORKSHOP:

“Time stopped!

I was danced into new spaces not visited before.

Thank you for guiding my steps further along this exquisite and never ending pathway.”

DANCER ON BODY|SANCTUARY WORKSHOP:

“I felt held, seen, safe and welcomed… Tim's music and gentle guidance were a balm to my soul and body, enabling me to explore and challenge my own ideas of grounding and boundaries. Really looking forward to the next one.”

DANCER ON SHADOW DANCER WORKSHOP:

“it was my first dance workshop and a full 8 hours seemed like a big commitment…  Luckily for me the quest for self overrode the ego!

I'm so glad I came. 

I learned a lot, and I deeply appreciated the way that TIM guided the experience.  GIVING just enough cues to generate direction AND deep understanding, and just enough space to allow a personal unfurling.“

Learn more about the 5Rhythms

Are you from a typically less represented community within 5R classes and workshops? (The feeling of: “there aren’t many me’s on the dance floor.” Perhaps age, ability, race, size, gender, sexuality, income etc…) I’d love to make it more possible for you to attend the classes and workshops I hold. Sometimes it’s a money thing, sometimes it’s something else…

My first step is that all classes have a concession price; and I hold the “early bird price” on workshops for under 30s throughout.

If you need a second step, please send me an email about what you’d like to come to so we can work towards a solution together. Your communication is confidential and held with heart. We can do this!

(As I fumble through this, please also feel free to suggest a better wording that has the same good intentions I do)

-Past dances-

DANCER ON BODY|SANCTUARY WORKSHOP:

“The teaching felt  inviting, gentle and fun..loved it.

7 years of child carrying shifted from my shoulders and back a little.

It was so nourishing to do something for myself although I was fragile; I was in the right light space with beautiful people, music and co-creation of movement expression.”

DANCER ON SHADOW DANCER WORKSHOP:

I've been a passionate 5Rhythms dancer for over 25 years. I attended simply looking forward to another day of good music, folk and dance. So, I was rather wrong footed by TIM’S well crafted and held workshop, SHADOW DANCER. It was both enlightening and delicious, as we explored the shadow side of how we dance through our rhythms!”
