A 5Rhythms Weekend Workshop in San Diego with Jonathan Horan & Christina Graham-Smith December 6-8, 2024.
Slowing down, connecting with spirit and breath, can lead to a sense of inner peace and contentment. It's a reminder that peace and stillness are always accessible within us, even amid the chaos of life. Stillness serves as a vital component for balancing our overall energy. Knowing when to slow down. If a race-car tries to go 100% around the curves, it’s going to crash. We too crash in different ways when we continue to push ourselves. Slowing down leads to a deeper understanding of oneself and a greater capacity for presence, self-acceptance, and inner peace while keeping our awareness of what's essential and needed.

Lyrical is a wellspring of creativity and inspiration. It allows space for ideas and insights to surface, and it can be particularly valuable for artists, musicians, writers, and anyone seeking creative breakthroughs. Lyrical can provide a much-needed break from the seriousness of everyday life, inviting dancers to experience childlike wonder and spontaneity. We listen to our body's intuitive impulses, sharpening our ability to trust our inner wisdom and cultivate spontaneity.

This workshop series is for both dancers new to the 5Rhythms practice and those who have danced hundreds of dances. All are welcome!
Chaos is a gateway where the focus on bodily sensations and rhythm allows the mind to quiet down. This can lead to increased mental clarity and a break from everyday mental chatter. When we move faster than our mind a shift occurs, the thoughts dissolve and we become the eye of the storm, grounded, centered and present regardless of what is occurring around us in the moment. We allow the Rhythm of Chaos to rejuvenate and revive us rather than depleting our energy forces. Shaking out stress, negative thoughts, old stories we no longer need, judgements that hinder our well being.

How’s your pie chart of life experiences? Your inner portfolio. Is it full of activities, people, experiences that energize and fulfill you? Is it heavy on responsibilities that leave you drained, with little energy to add fulfilling experiences? We dance into exploring boundaries, embodying our yes breath, activating our no with clarity so we can meet our everyday experiences with balance. Taking this into the larger field of our relationships with Self, Other, Family, Community.

The body is a fountain of wisdom and truth. When our bodies are in motion patterns begin to arise. These patterns gift us with information and messages that can radically shift our lives and relationships.
With compassion and grace, we can meet the patterns of our shadows. Understanding the patterns of our shadows, the place we go when we feel overwhelmed can help us navigate effectively back to the light and purity of connection. Our shadow can then be a mentor rather than a foe.
In this workshop, we take time to meet ourselves through movement, listening to the messages our shadow mentor is attempting to share that will guide us back to the light of connection and our passionate selves.
Together we will move and use the power of the 5Rhythms, Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness to provide tools to assist you in discovering your Home Rhythm, the place where we are restored, refreshed, and able to move with joy and ease. Welcome Home.
Embrace the potential for increased energy, reduced stress, and a renewed zest for life in this immersive Series of Day long Workshop moving through the 5Rhythms® waves map. In each day long workshop we will explore mindfulness, movement, connection and self-care, all tailored to enhance your overall vitality. Join us to cultivate a deeper sense of well-being that radiates through every facet of your life. You are welcome to join an individual workshop or dance into the whole series for additional benefits of $225 reduction in price, zoom meetings in between workshops, WhatsApp group and two 45 min waves will be delivered each month to your inbox to keep your wellness practice thriving. This workshop series is for both dancers new to the 5Rhythms practice and those who have danced hundreds of dances. All are welcome!
NURTURING SELF THROUGH FLOWING
The nurturing Rhythm of Flowing can assist us in boosting energy levels, allowing us to dance into life with an increased sense of vitality. Movements in Flowing are smooth and continuous; increasing flexibility, grounding and balance in our bodies, life and relationships. The gentle yet fluid movements in this Rhythm can help release tension and stress, leaving us in a more relaxed state of being. Focusing on the sensations of our bodies we increase awareness of our body's signals and needs so we can lovingly fill our buckets.

When we listen closely, we can hear the Melody of our Hearts and those around us singing. Sometimes they sing in Joy and Compassion and other times they remind us to be present with our Fear, our Anger and our Sadness. When we listen to the messages we have the opportunity to meet, be with, move and express our deepest desires and yearnings. It’s the uncomfortable emotions, expressed effectively that bridge the gap to Joy and Compassion. This series of Heartbeat level day workshops is a space to move and be moved by the Melody of our Hearts towards Transformation. You are welcome to join all, one or a few. Attendance at all 5 will count towards the 5 Day Heartbeat pre-requisite for the 5Rhythms teacher training path.

Are you living your full potential? Taking risks, letting go of the illusion of control, dancing into opportunities and allowing yourself to be vulnerable? If you are, congratulations you are allowing anxiety to be a creative, forward moving tool rather than holding you back. Anytime we are passionate about something and unable to ensure the outcome, anxiety can and will arise. Shifting fear into a catalyst of movement we can dance into new ways of being with ourselves, others and the world around us. Turning anxiety and our inner critic into a mentor rather than a controller.
Do you settle for less than you deserve?
Does social anxiety rob you of connection with others?
Are you miserable in your job, yet afraid to make a change?
Do you procrastinate on tasks that if completed would benefit you?
Does your perfectionist hold you back?
Join us in Riding the Wave of Fear where we will tackle some of the fears that hold us back, turn anxiety into a useful tool and dance into living our full potential.

“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.” John Augustus Shedd
Like a ship, when we play it safe we deny ourselves living fully and joyfully. An Adventurous Heart is willing to take risks-dancing into fear, allowing anger to become a teacher rather than a prison, recognizing that sadness is an expression of loving deeply so that we may embrace joy and open to the universal nature of compassion. Through movement we practice the art of slowing down and listening to the wisdom of the Heart. Children are blessed with an instinctual Heart, as we grow older we can become more cautious. Forgetting the power of the Heart to lead us on adventures. We will use movement, meditation and dance to connect more intimately with our intuitive Hearts, releasing the protective armor that keeps us separate. Listening to the truth of our hearts, we can allow ourselves to fully feel the aliveness present in our moment to moment experiences.
The Heart has the answers, are willing to listen?
In this 5 Day 5Rhythms Heartbeat level workshop we will dance into our personal and group adventure in Playa de Tijuana, Mexico. This workshop is limited to 15 participants, opening space for personal connection and attention. We have the possibility for the group to stay together, reach out if this calls to you. Playa de Tijuana is close to the beach, fabulous restaurants, the studio and an easy location to reach from the border crossing. This workshop will have translation from English to Spanish
This Sunday we will move to the inspiration of Anilah! Her music calls to our ancestral roots, connection to nature and cultivates a sense of peace within self. It is an honor to share and move as a collective to her masterful creations.
Join us Sunday 11:30 to 1:00pm
Inspiration on Anilah’s compositions
“The music of Anilah is born from a practice that is deeply inspired by nature and a willingness to engage with the natural world within a framework of reciprocity. In this way, artistic expression becomes a symbiotic relationship with the elements. All of the music is composed in nature, while walking or in meditation. An unspoken conversation occurs which influences the composition, and by entering into this state, I find myself listening to melodic structures that are inherent within all of nature. There is a widening of the senses, and an unraveling of conceptual boundaries. My art and music are continuously influenced by these practices which cultivate benevolence, compassion, and gratitude.” (https://anilah.bandcamp.com/album/invoking-the-numinous)
Residing on the beautiful west coast of British Columbia, Anilah is the solo project of composer and vocalist Dréa Drury. For the first 18 years of her life, she lived in a rural village of 50 people in the heart of the Kootenay Mountains. Her experiences there, as well as her love for nature, wilderness, and the world of the elements, has inspired her to write music which directly reflects their influence.
Since the release of Anilah’s first EP “Warrior” in 2014, Dréa has been fascinated with the interplay between creative expression, psychoacoustic sound design, and the natural environment. Ethereal and evocative soundscapes create a stunning backdrop for her unique vocal style, which has been cultivated after two decades of studying both traditional folk-chant and classical North Indian Raga melodies under the late Ali Akbar Khan.
In 2015, Anilah collaborated with Einar Selvik (Wardruna, and History Channel Vikings composer) to create a remix of her title track “Warrior,” which is an epic blend of contemporary songwriting and traditional Norwegian folk instrumentation. Since this release, she has continued to experiment with an approach to writing music that revolves around the power of the voice and the use of minimalist composition.
A weekend with the master teacher of 5Rhythms®, Jonathan Horan! This is a new workshop offering with the first launch happening here in San Diego. Jonathan Horan was born into 5Rhythms, dancing in the womb of Gabrielle Roth, the founder and creator of 5Rhythms. This workshop counts as one of the teacher training requirements--a waves weekend with Jonathan.

November 8 -10, 2019 • Malashock Dance Studio • San Diego, CA
Quite often we make money decisions based on a false idea of how much money we “think” we have….meaning we perceive we don’t have enough or we believe that if we spend now that we might not have enough left over for the future so we are continuously in a fight, flight or freeze mode around money. Humans have been evolving for millions of years, but money has been used by everyone on the planet for a mere 300 years. In evolutionary terms, our bodies, hearts and minds have not caught up and integrated the concept of money. There is a separation. We can change and speed up the integration process through movement.
One of the many reasons we have money challenges is because we have not learned to manage our personal energy. Explore your relationship to money and dance through the 8 Money Archetypes: Innocent, Victim, Warrior, Martyr, Fool, Creator/Artist, Tyrant and Magician. We will transform greed into generosity, hatred into love, confusion into clarity, and boredom into opportunity.
No previous experience is required to participate in this transformative workshop.
Evangelos is a Certified 5Rhythms movement facilitator, meditation teacher and business coach. His compassionate and investigative nature encourages students to view life challenges and conflicting emotions as an opportunity for personal growth and transformation. He has a passion for integrating the path of awakening with somatic expression, art, and business. Evangelos regularly teaches across Canada, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Meet him at Meditationmoves.ca and come find out how this instinctual tool for Survival (Money) drives the psyche.

If a replacement is registered, participant will receive a full refund minus a 25% processing fee. If a participant does not show up for the workshop without communicating, their registration payment will not be refunded.
Join us for an evening with Evangelos in community dialogue around our relationship to money. This isn't a conversation where you are convinced that money will save you from the struggles of life.

Evangelos is a facilitator, trainer and behavioral money coach. Evangeols incorporates his offerings of 5Rhythms movement meditation, behavioral money awareness and meditation in his powerful work on bringing light and awareness to the impact money has on our lives, relationships and choices. He travels the world bringing this much needed, taboo topic into the forefront of our awareness so that we may step into choice rather than unhealthy patterns, assisting each of us to learn how to thriVe!
“This was a transformative experience on many levels. Evangelos’ expert, unpretentious manner instilled me with a new confidence in my own ability to rethinking and reboot my money-related mental models. The experience was empowering and exhilarating, and I’m only beginning to apply all that I have learned.” John Munroe, CEO Gaia Works, Tokyo Japan
“Evangelos has a way of gently but firmly guiding me to the answers I already know. Having someone who is as knowledgable of not just the financial, but also the emotional and mental roadblocks has helped me become more confident in my ability to create the life I desire.” Anthony Fernando, Professional Photographer in Winnipeg Canada
¿Te encuentras en una disyuntiva para pedir lo que quieres? Muchos de nosotros evitamos expresar nuestros verdaderos deseos, sueños y necesidades.
En este taller de un día de duración, utilizaremos el mapa de los 5Ritmos como una forma de explorar y descubrir nuestros deseos y necesidades, expresando de manera efectiva lo que encontramos, soltando todo lo que nos detiene y abriéndonos a todas las posibilidades.
Los 5Ritmos es una práctica de meditación en movimiento que nos permite conectarnos con nuestro cuerpo, mente y corazón mientras aprendemos el lenguaje de expresión del mismo.
Nuestros cuerpos tienen una gran cantidad de experiencia y conocimiento, cuando aprendemos a escuchar, expresar, rendirnos, expandirnos e integrarnos a través del mapa de los 5Ritmos, podemos comunicarnos más efectivamente con nosotros mismos y con los demás.
Danzamos para conectar con nuestro poder, presencia y libertad.

Body Talk: Asking for What you Want
A 5Rhythms® day Workshop
Do you find yourself struggling to ask for what you want? Many of us hold back from expressing our true desires, wants and needs.
In this day long workshop we will utilize the 5Rhythms map as a way to explore discovering our wants and needs, effectively expressing what we discover, letting go of all that holds us back, while opening up to all possibilities.
5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice that allows us to connect with our body, mind and heart while learning the language of our body expression. Our bodies hold a vast amount of experience and knowledge, when we learn how to listen, express, surrender, expand and integrate through the 5Rhythms map we can communicate more effectively with ourselves and others.
Dancing into our power, presence and freedom.

In Adventurous Heart we begin with recognizing how fear moves and shapes each of us in relationship to ourselves, others and in a group dynamic. Belonging is a basic need that when unmet can turn inward and lead to a deep sense of loneliness even when we are with others. Meeting our fear, expressing it and letting it go creates a shift from “fitting in” to “belonging” and being accepted just as we are moment to moment. Fear leads to performance, giving ourselves away to feel accepted. Tapping into the courage in our body and hearts we practice the art of vulnerability and showing up just as we are. Moving fear into courageous connection.

Presencia Emergente
Taller de 5 ritmos con Christina.
(Scroll down for English Version)
En Presencia Emergente, exploramos el arte de pasar de la desconexión a la presencia. Ese lugar de despertar cuando nuestro cuerpo nos llama a escuchar y responder, en lugar de operar en piloto automatic, con patrones obsoletos que ya no sirven a nuestro ser superior.
El fluir nos conecta con la presencia de nuestro cuerpo intuitivo.
Staccato alimenta el fuego de nuestro corazón expresivo, aprendiendo nuevas formas de comunicar nuestra verdad.
El caos nos permite liberarnos de las restricciones y rendirnos a todos lo que espera para manifestarse.
Lírico nos mueve a todas las posibilidades.
Y la conciencia de lo que es la Quietud emerge en presencia de nuestro auténtico espíritu en cada respiración que nos da forma.
Este taller será una exploración grupal de todo lo que surja cuando nos tomemos el tiempo de movernos con la presencia, emergiendo en nuestra verdad en cualquier momento y dándonos permiso a nosotros mismos y a los demás para que seamos exactamente como somos: momento a momento, respiración por respiración y conexión a conexión. Les doy la bienvenida a todos a danzar en presencia con nosotros en Ensenada, México.

In Emerging Presence we explore the art of moving between disconnect to presence. That place of awakening when our body calls us to listen and respond, rather than operating on auto pilot with outdated patterns that no longer serve our higher being.
Flowing connects us with the presence of our intuitive body
Staccato fuels the fire of our expressive Heart, learning new ways to communicate our truth
Chaos allows us to break free of restrictions and surrender to all waiting to manifest
Lyrical moves us to all possibilities and awareness of what is
Stillness emerges into presence of our authentic spirit in each breath that shapes us
This workshop will be a group exploration of all that emerges when we take time to move with presence, emerging into our truth in any moment while giving permission to ourselves and others to be exactly as we are—moment to moment, breath to breath and connection to connection. I welcome all to dance into presence with us in Ensenada, Mexico.

March 23-24, 2019 with Christina
In Infinite Possibilities we dance ourselves into stillness, that place of receptivity where all is possible. In the emptiness we find our fullness, clearing the space for new possibilities to arise.
Expanding our awareness to take in more than what we see with our eyes, ears and mind, we practice listening to the innate wisdom whispering
in our bodies,
our breath,
our cells,
the beat of our own heart
and the rhythm of our body.
Through the dance we practice the art of tuning into messages as they arise in the form of
body sensations
intuition
words
deep knowing
pictures
expressions
impressions
inspirations
art and poetry
We become moving art…… Opening pathways to abundant possibilities
You will end this weekend with increased awareness of self and how to utilize movement as a meditation for increased wellness and healing both on and off the dance floor. Are you ready to discover the gems inside waiting to be released in the dance, in connection and in community where you will be accepted and appreciated just as you are in each moment.

With each beat of the heart we have an opportunity to move out of stuck ways of being and into a more expansive state of prosperity. Noticing how the illusion of safety in staying with known patterns can freeze us from living fully and thriving. Through the dance we can evolve from fear based loving to love based living.
How does fear block my flow?
How does anger limit my honesty?
How does sadness short circuit my joy?
How can I move into truly seeing and loving life?
In this workshop we move through the Heartbeat map of our emotional being. Bringing loving attention to how meeting fear, anger, sadness, joy and compassion through our hearts can be an opportunity to evolve and shift us from disconnect to connection. The transformational power of essential emotions in movement empowers each of us to experience the potency of living from a place of full awakening. Where we can dissolve the negative affect of the inner realms of our lives and find conscious pathways to expression and healthy relationships.

We each have a home rhythm in how we relate to life, relationships and the world around us, dancing to the beat of our own drum. Discovering your home Rhythm can provide insightful information in navigating through the world, facing challenges that arise and becoming more fluid in our approach to life. Do you flow through life, but have difficulty committing? Are you a planner, yet struggle with change? Do you wait until the last minute and fall into ‘out of control’ mode when deadlines arise? Are you a creative shapeshifter, yet at times loose your focus and follow through? Are you an intuitive empath connected to spirit and at times get overwhelmed shifting into numbness to protect yourself? Understanding our shadow and light patterns through the dance empowers us to make conscious choice. In this 6 week series we will delve into discovery together through the dance.
Attending the whole series is recommended to get the full benefits of the work as we move through each of the Rhythms. Following the series will be a Wednesday Sweat Your Prayers with minimal guidance.
