WOW! – Bristol 5Rhythms® you Rock

WOW! – Bristol 5Rhythms® you Rock

Dear Dancers

Friday 5 Rhythms in Bristol

Horfield Parish Church Hall 
4 August, 8:30 – 10:30pm 

Wow… thank you everyone who danced and co-created last Friday’s class – ‘storming’, wild, while really connected, tender and ‘held’. Such an energy, many first time 5R dancers (you totally rocked it!), many regulars, and Bernadette absolutely flying. We sweated… we definitely ‘prayed’… we sat in circle in such deep and beautiful Stillness… 

It was just what I needed, to shake off post-workshop blues (e.g. the ‘why can’t we just dance all the time‘ feeling laugh emoji). I’m not alone in still finding it wondrous to touch these places in a two hour class… and we can go deeper still (see below…) 
Bless you all.
See you (and everyone else now wondering what the fuss is all about), hopefully, on the dance floor tomorrow.

All Love, 
Jon, for Bernadette & team xxx


Looking for the Magic? Two opportunities to go deeper with Bernadette:

Closed group – starting Sept:

“An Invitation to the Heart” 
A Waves/Heartbeat™ dance journey 
Bernadette Ryder & Rhythm Circle

An opportunity to join “Rhythm Circle” – our ongoing closed group. We gather weekly in Bristol on Thursday evenings, to support one another to drop deeper in the dance and expand the embodiment and understanding of the profound 5Rhythms® map. It runs in ‘terms’ of ~12 weeks, with approximately 30 places each time. 

For the first time in Rhythm Circle we will be stepping into the 5Rhythms Heartbeat™ map with “An Invitation to the Heart” – to allow and explore the vulnerability of what is moving in our hearts – with the aim of releasing an expanded, and more spontaneous, emotional maturity. 

… and/or come and talk to us at the end of a Bristol Friday class. 
Note: Heartbeat™ groups fill fast – this one already well over half-full in 24 hours – so, if this calls your heart, don’t hang around.

Next Workshop – still spaces:

“Re-Wilding Creativity”
Discovering and Recovering innate Creativity through Dance and…
