Nourish: A Waves Exploration in the Rhythm of Flowing
Allow the vital and restorative WAVES map of the 5Rhythms to replenish your connection to what nourishes you. This offering of loving kindness to ourselves in the form embodied exploration frees us from the lonely confinement to modern life's incessant greed for our attention and the exhausting consumption of our most vital resource...presence.
In this 1.5 day Waves workshop, with the mother rhythm of Flowing as our guide we will practice:
Remembering what it means to be in community, to be included
Finding the shapes that anchor us in our safest harbors
Releasing our notions about limitations and scarcity
Dreaming into being a harvest of hope
Receiving the generosity of our unified being
“The rhythm of flowing connects us to the flow of our individual energy, our base current. In flowing there are no separations or distinctions between things.” – Gabrielle Roth
Guided by Nima Yazdanfar and Jeffrey Boynton:
Jeffrey has been practicing 25 years and teaching since 2014. He holds a generous grounded space of gentle masculine presence for each of us to find our feet on the path of alignment between what we think, what we feel, and what we do. The gift of this alignment and awareness is increased personal and communal resilience, a vital resource in this age of Chaos.
Nima's path into movement began during a profound personal transformation in 2018. Born in Iran during revolution, war, and religious persecution, he found healing and reconnection through the 5Rhythms® and other practices. As an entrepreneur and founder, his journey bridges spirituality, creativity, leadership, and service. He creates heartfelt spaces rooted in authenticity, courage, inclusivity, and community.

EQUILIBRIUM
Equilibrium: A 5Rhythms® Equinox Exploration With Jeffrey Boynton
This soothing season of release and bounty, of shorter days and cooling winds, delights us in an exuberant display of color and abundance, a reflective space of gratitude and luciferous change. The coming season of autumn brings a shift into decidedly cooler and longer nights; a time for harvesting, fruition, and transition for many forms of life in this hemisphere. Leaves brighten, crisp and fall. Melancholy musings turn our focus inward as the space between the possibilities of Summer and emptiness of Winter arrives. Birds begin to fly to warmer climates, opening the soundscapes of our mornings and evenings into a growing silence. Fruit and leaves begin to litter the forest floor as their bodies nourish whatever grows next. Some of us venture out into the wilds while the temperate weather persists, gathering around fires, with practices that acknowledge and give thanks. Some return to learning and the halls and chambers of curiosity, reconfiguring families and offering new opportunities to the next generations.
As we approach the autumnal equinox, I invite you to dance the polarities of the 5Rhythms as we explore each rhythm in its endarkened and enlightened expression. This journey of movement, connection, ritual, and integration is offered as a waypoint on your path to the reflective, soothing, and generous energy of harvest that autumn can offer.

Practice
Practice: A 5Rhythms® workshop with Jeffrey Boynton This workshop is an inquiry into the 5Rhythms as a practice.
The surest way to understand the 5Rhythms' powerful potential is to move our bodies with intention, however we are able, through Wave after Wave after Wave. Our dance becomes practice – and we become more proficient, as practitioners – as we show up, over time, in almost any inner state and external circumstance, dancing with others and alone; with little energy or range and with a lot; with different life moments, questions, and emotions; for seconds, minutes, hours, or for days.
In this practice, the specific nature of each Rhythm invites us to know ourselves in distinct ways and capacities, and to deepen into this way of knowing, of being in contact, over time. We practice shifting from Rhythm to Rhythm and Wave to Wave, cultivating our ability to live fluidly, and to respond to change. We practice giving ourselves permission to be every part of who we are, while noticing and being with what is – however it happens to be.
Through practice, and by sincerely giving our time and attention, we follow the road to building innate skill and developing the sense of embodied safety that personal experience and proficiency can bring. Then, we can effortlessly improvise within our own earned understanding of what is possible. With practice, we can relate with more ground and more presence to what is moving, to what is needed, and to who and what is alive around and between us. As we touch this place of knowing, nurturing, and unleashing our full selves, we encourage others in our world to do the same.
** Workshop participants will be provided access to several of Jeffrey’s waves for home practice via Mixcloud to support their personal practice and inquiry before and integration after the workshop.**

UNIFY: A 5Rhythms Exploration of the Mature Masculine
Connected Visionary Focused Empowering
These qualities of the mature masculine are subverted by the patriarchy, the lying politician, the abusive lover, and the gangster; symptomatic of a society that disproportionately reveres the boy masquerading as man. The immature masculine has its place in the vital and vibrant spark of boyhood. When it fails to develop and takes the place of mature masculine awareness and leadership in the actions of men and perceptions of women, all are wounded.
In this weekend Waves workshop for all people, we will try on the many shapes of the masculine, tapping our body intelligence to sift and move the stories and patterns, and distilling the essence of our present awareness of masculine energy into embodied action.
“Dance is movement, is action, and like all action, it reveals us to ourselves in the doing.” – Gabrielle Roth

Luminous Absence
LUMINOUS ABSENCE
A 5Rhythms® Day of Exploration With Jeffrey Boynton
This autumnal season of darkness, of lengthening nights and diminishing light holds us in an essential energy, an intuitive space of regeneration and inner growth. The coming season of winter brings with it the return of the light, and a long period of rest for many forms of life in this hemisphere. Sap slows, heart rates drop into hibernation, birds absent themselves to warmer climates, emptying the skies. Crisp leaves rest on the forest floor as the ground grows cold. We bring the warmth inside our homes, into our hearth, with practices that soothe and comfort.
As we approach the winter solstice, I invite you to dance the polarities of the 5Rhythms as we explore each rhythm in its endarkened and enlightened expression. This daylong journey of movement, connection, ritual, and integration is offered as a waypoint on your path to the regenerative, restful, and deeply nourishing energy that winter can offer.

Radiance of Being
Radiance of Being: A 5Rhythms® Solstice Exploration With Jeffrey Boynton
This boisterous season of emerging, of flowering and regeneration invites us into a raucous and wild energy of rebirth, a teeming space of beginnings and awakenings. The coming season of summer brings the full blaze of the sun’s heat, and time for connection, celebration and remembering the abundance of our brilliant source of energy. Plants fruit and ripen, the outdoors thrums with activity, the insect world fills the world with the rhythms of life’s endurance. The temperature rises and the nights grow short, inviting us to take rest on cool beaches and immerse ourselves in watery depths of release. We gather around the night fires and BBQs, with practices that celebrate and connect us to the vibrancy of community.
As we approach the summer solstice, I invite you to dance the polarities of the 5Rhythms as we explore each rhythm in its endarkened and enlightened expression. This journey of movement, connection, ritual, and integration is offered as a waypoint on your path to the catalyzing, abundant, creative, and enduring energy of release that summer can offer.

EQUILIBRIUM
Equilibrium: A 5Rhythms® Equinox Exploration With Jeffrey Boynton
This spacious season of darkness, of lengthening days and growing light cradles us in an essential restorative energy, a contemplative space of consciousness and presence. The coming season of spring brings an equilibrium between day and night, and time for stirring, germination and awakening for many forms of life in this hemisphere. Sap rises, heart rates quicken out of hibernation, birds return from warmer climates, filling the empty skies. Buds swell and shoots break the surface of the forest floor as the ground begins to thaw. We venture out of the warmth inside our homes, back into the outdoors, with practices that renew and refresh.
As we approach the vernal equinox, I invite you to dance the polarities of the 5Rhythms as we explore each rhythm in its endarkened and enlightened expression. This daylong journey of movement, connection, ritual, and integration is offered as a waypoint on your path to the refreshing, creative, and exhilarating energy of renewal that spring can offer.

MorningGlory (Sub for Debby Norton)
I enjoyed this experience last time Debby was away and I am grateful she has asked me to sub again on this day of LOVE!
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.
