Join us for a conscious movement journey through the Five Elements of Chinese Medicine — Water, Wood, Earth, Fire, and Metal — through movement, breath, embodiment, energy, and awareness.
Sheri is a certified Dance Alive Instructor and creator of Five Element Dance,
bringing the wisdom of the Five Elements into an embodied movement experience.
WATER — flow, intuition, softness & deep listening
WOOD — expansion, growth, reaching & awakening
EARTH — grounding, nourishment, strength & center
FIRE — passion, creativity, expression, play & release
METAL — breath, refinement, stillness, presence & integration
We begin by dancing within our own sphere, listening to the body and allowing movement to arise naturally rather than following choreography.
As the journey unfolds, we may explore connection through movement mirroring, shared rhythm, presence, playful interaction, and gentle partner exploration. A few songs may include optional contact-based movement, always honoring personal boundaries and individual choice.
No experience necessary. No choreography.
Just come as you are, breathe, move, feel, connect, and let the Elements move through you.
Cost $15–$25
