5Rhythms Dance
“Dance alone to discover who you are.
Dance with others to see who you are with.
Dance in a group to discover your place.”
– Gabrielle Roth
Movement Meditation
5Rhythms is a dynamic movement meditation — a practice of being in your body.
Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced worldwide, 5Rhythms is rooted in the principle that when we put the psyche in motion, it can begin to heal itself.
There are no steps to follow and no right or wrong way to move. The body becomes the guide. Movement becomes medicine — opening space for creativity, connection, release and freedom.
At Kura Waka, 5Rhythms is held as a space to dance, sweat, soften, express and reconnect.
 Allow yourself to be moved by pure expression, you are welcome exactly as you are
Rimke & Michaela
Rimke Pepers and Michaela van der Meer have been co-creating these retreats for many years, weaving together dance, ritual, sweatlodge ceremony, nourishing food and the wisdom of the body.
Each retreat carries its own unique energy, shaped by the season, the group, the land and what wants to unfold.Â
A magcial combination of Dance and Sweatlodge Ceremony
Rimke is an experienced 5Rhythms teacher with a deep sensitivity for music, movement and atmosphere. She knows how to guide the dance through exactly the right sounds for the moment.
Michaela holds the ceremonial field and brings people together around the Sacred Fire and into the sweatlodge. Her work is rooted in prayer, presence and years of experience with ceremony and community.
To sweat is to pray.
To dance is to remember.
To gather is to heal.
