Workshops 2010
5Rhythm™ dancework,
creative writing and ritual journey for women.
An opportunity to express
and explore our aliveness, over time, as we anticipate, pass through or look
back on the changes of mid-life.
In Autumn 2009, 19 women
started on an amazingly powerful creative journey exploring their experience
of mid-life and aging through dance, artwork, writing, stitching sacred garments,
maskmaking and ritual theatre. We also had a ceremonial sweat lodge. Some of
the women are still meeting to write and dance together.
I am thrilled to be offering a new
version of Changing Woman starting at Samhain 2010, and ending at Imbolc 2011.
The weekend dates are:
October 30/31, November 27/28, 2010
and February 5/6 2011.
Weekends at the beautiful
Medway Centre, Bakewell.
The financial contribution will be
£300, or £270 if paid in full by September 21st. Payment can be
made in installments by arrangement.
There will also be the opportunity
to join women from the first goup on a creative holiday (holy days) in Crete
in May 2011.

Approaching
the darkest point of the year, a day of Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythmstm ‘wave’
dancing to give thanks, celebrate and let go of the passing year, followed by
a wave in stillness to sacred music from different spiritual traditions. In
these chaotic times, we can allow ourselves to pause and discover the simple,
transformative power of moving the breathing body to ‘still the mind and
free the spirit’.

Dance by the ocean
to re-connect with our natural rhythms, with the beat of our hearts, with our
feet on the ground, with our shadows and light, with each other and our wounded
earth. Dance in a land sacred to the dance of the Goddess for thousands of years.
Be still in a landscape of mountains and caves where you can feel Her awesome
mystery, even as modernity scars Her body..
Dance to free our bodies, heart and spirits, to help empower ourselves as
women to make the differences we long for.
