Sorrow, Surrender & Trust (HB)
20 - 21 September 2025, Rotterdam, NL
Change is a constant in our lives, and with it comes to loss a universal
experience that weighs on our hearts. In this 5Rhythms workshop, we
invite you to explore the rhythm of chaos, a space where we can meet
our sadness and release the burdens we carry.
Through movement, we will honor the grief of unfulfilled dreams and
the farewells we never wanted to make. This journey embraces
vulnerability and strength in our shared humanity. As we dance, we
create a refuge for our emotions, allowing tears to flow.
Join us in this exploration of life’s cycles, where we acknowledge what
has been lost and celebrate the resilience that arises from our
struggles. Together, we will find freedom in the dance of release.

This workshop is a unique combination of 5Rhythms® and Somatic
Experiencing®, offering an elective experience within the 5Rhythms
curriculum.
5Rhythms serves as the foundation for this weekend. Dancing the Wave helps
us achieve a state of equilibrium and quiets the mind. Throughout the
weekend, we will engage in body-oriented practices from Somatic
Experiencing, designed to alleviate the effects of trauma. By tuning into our
felt sense, we will learn to listen to our bodies and their responses, fostering
a deeper connection with our nervous system.
In addition to group sessions, a few participants will have the opportunity to
engage in one-on-one Somatic Experiencing sessions, with the group serving
as witnesses.

Our emotions are of invaluable importance in our lives, as they provide us
with the energy we need to take appropriate actions. Fear is an emotion that
protects us from danger. Without being able to recognize fear, we would not
be able to survive and would take unnecessary and life-threatening risks.
On the other hand, worrying too much about something exciting that we
need to do can paralyze us and limit our creativity. This workshop focuses on
the energy and movement that arise from fear, so that we can discover its
essential power.
By overcoming fear, we gain courage, which enables us to make positive
changes and create a broader perspective. This is a 5Rhythms Waves® &
Heartbeat® workshop.

Emotions serve as vital sources of strength and guidance in our lives. Anger,
in particular, helps us recognize and honor our boundaries, and empowers us
to defend what we cherish. Accessing our anger can lead to deeper, more
intimate relationships. There is something profoundly personal about
expressing anger in a healthy manner — it is not about blame or humiliation,
but rather about heartfelt communication that safeguards our integrity.
When we embrace our anger, we become more attuned to our limits.
In this workshop, we will explore the dual nature of anger — the light and the
shadow. The light of anger is constructive and fosters connection, while the
shadow can be destructive and isolating. We will also delve into the
relationship between anger and forgiveness. Ultimately, we will explore how
anger serves as a vital energy that keeps us alive and engaged. By channeling
this energy through movement, we can become more comfortable with our
own power, allowing us to express our true feelings with clarity and
authenticity.
“Anger is an integrity-producing response to the invasion of your
personal boundaries.” Gabrielle Roth

This five-day Heartbeat workshop is an excellent opportunity to
discover the depth of 5Rhythms dance. Physically, emotionally, and
intellectually. When we dance for an extended period of time, the path
to full presence opens. You can feel, hear, see, smell and think with a
clarity you may have never experienced before. A rebirth.
Each day we will explore a rhythm on a physical and emotional level.
The 5Rhythms are our guide. This workshop is a prerequisite for
dancers who wish to participate in the 5Rhythms teacher training. But
more importantly, it is a gateway for anyone who wants to live fully.
5Rhythms is a movement meditation practice. In this five-day intensive,
we will explore all aspects of our essential emotions: fear, anger,
sadness, joy, and compassion. Our hearts unfolding.
