5Rhythms Classes with Alyssa

Through the practice of collective ritual movement we are privileged to experience ourselves as prepared, present, passionate, principled and potent.

When we set aside the quality time and claim the psychic space for moving our life metaphors, and when we assume the authority to do so, we are able to transform our perceptions, our perspectives, our experiences, and in the process, our reality.

Join in this dynamic movement class where we honor ourselves, each other and this earth through the ritual of embodying and moving through the rhythms of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness, the Medicine Map of the 5Rhythms®.

Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself.

Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free.

Creativity. Connection. Community.

**Alyssa is a licensed Global 5Rhythms® Facilitator, Social Worker, Somatic Therapist – Movement Educator in Training (currently in her final year at the Tamalpa Institute) and has been on the 5Rhythms dancing path since 2009.

Somatic Art Therapy with Alyssa

Many of us find that Talk-Therapy, Psychoanalysis and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods are not providing us with felt sense of self discovery we desire for growth and healing. If often feels like we are missing something essential, perhaps an anchor to drop into so that we are able to digest, metabolize and catalyze all of the learned tools we have collected throughout our life experiences.

I am here to guide and support you as you develop body based techniques to help process trauma and regulate your nervous system.
