5Rhythms in Iceland

The 5Rhythms®  are a movement practice, developed by Gabrielle Roth. 

Dancing through a Wave, the 5Rhythms of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness, relases old patterns in body and mind.  A healing practice and a way to find and express the authentic being that you are.  The dance is a way to release your creativity and connect with the mystery of life. 

Sigurborg Kr. Hannesdottir is an accredited 5Rhythms teacher, trained by Gabrielle Roth.

We also organize workshops with Alain Allard.

Open classes and workshops are mainly in Reykjavik and Snaefellsnes, West Iceland, plus a few other places.

MAPS TO ECSTASY - WEEKEND WORKSHOP WITH ALAIN ALLARD OCT. 1st - 2nd

This weekend intensive in the 5Rhythms is an opportunity both for experienced dancers and non dancers alike to release and refresh the abundant creativity, intelligence and passion that lives in our bodies.
We dance ourselves back into balance and so reconnect to the essential self buried in the seemingly drab demands of daily routine. This is active meditation practise. We focus deeply and we cleanse ourselves through the sweat of our presence.

The maps of the 5 rhythms when laid out by well trained and experienced teachers provide a clear and dynamic structure to guide each person, regardless of age or experience to remember themselves as sentient beings in a beautiful, vibrant and fascinating world. To dance is to find again the power of breath, community, clarity, health and freedom so reconnecting to the vibrancy of both the magic and the mundane of life itself.

Alain Allard is accredited by Gabrielle Roth to teach the 5Rhythms at Waves, Heartbeat and Mirrors Level.  He has worked with the 5Rhythms for 18 years and teaches worldwide.  He has had workshops in Iceland since 2000.  As a teacher Alain has a clear focus a sense of humour and a deep human empathy.

“ Anyone fortunate enough to find their way to one of Alain´s courses will find they are in good hands.”

"Movement is my medicine, my meditation, my practice.  It is what I do no matter how I feel.  We are all born to move, to surrender to the beat.  Your soul is a dancer.  No effort, no judgement.  Pure energy in the moment.  I call my form of ecstatic dance the 5Rhythms Wave.  It is a moving meditation and a great workout, using 5 basic rhythms that form a map to your innermost being.  Moving through the 5Rhythms is my spiritual practice."

Only you can dance your dance and live your life.
