The Way of the Dancer

What is it to be a dancer?

To really dance, feel the music and open to the amazing and vast experience of body-spirit consciousness? How do we do that, on the dancefloor and in our everyday lives?

This immersion is an invitation to explore the fundamentals of conscious dance and deepen into movement as meditation. We will move and work with core practices from 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine, and then spend day 2 in a ceremony,
dancing for life, connection and creative celebration. All bodies welcome.

Facilitator: Christian has held space for thousands of people to go on transformative journeys through dance. With 20 years experience teaching 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine, he weaves movement, music and ritual into a potent space for aliveness.

The workshop will be led in English, with German translation.Hosted by Janos Grimm, Soul Motion teacher, and his team in Freiburg. If you would like to participate and money is an obstacle, please be in contact.

What is an Immersion?

Immersions are a way to dive deep into the dance. They give time for experiential study of movement as meditation practice. They give space to the natural, healing and creative process that unfolds on the dancefloor. And they ignite the possibility of surrendering to the ecstatic experience that is dancing for long periods of time!

We will work and play with the core movement maps of The Way of the Dancer, Christian’s fusionary approach to the dancefloor, which integrates 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine with Taoist practice, Animist perspectives and other embodied pathways.

We dance solo, we move with others and we explore as a group.
We gather with a basis of respect and celebration of all bodies, expressions and ways of moving.
We use these protocols as a foundation for a strong, safe container

The journey will include an invitation to prepare before the workshop, and resources to support you to integrate the experience into everyday life.

All bodies welcome.
