5Rhythms© Shadow to Light Workshop
Christina Graham-Smith & Karyn Tonkinson Gartner
5Rhythms© Accredited Teachers

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.
