x-dance: On Tape
Co-creating a 5Rhythms Dance Journey
Experience the unique magic
x-dance: On Tape
Join us for x-dance: On Tape, where dance and connection intertwine in an exploration of integrity, agency, and the beauty of imperfection.
x-dance: On Tape is an invitation to dance in a unique space to disrupt any dualistic concepts between leader and follower, teacher and student and dissolve into a spirit of co-creation.
Together, we will let go of any constructs and roles to immerse ourselves in a shared dance journey of self-expression and connection.
A special take on the 5Rhythms Musical Journey
For x-dance: On Tape, I pre-record the entire 5Rhythms Wave. That recording serves as our shared musical canvas—a soundscape to hold us. As I dance alongside you, we will co-hold this space, allowing the co-creation to unfold organically.
By focusing on what is, rather than seeking to adjust or fix, we’ll create a collective tapestry of movement that honors each person’s unique expression and our collective field.
A nod to analog and its gifts
The “On Tape” concept pays homage to the beauty of the analog experience – a fixed sequence, an “imperfect” sound and a tactile experience.
For you
This special format allows for deepening and alternative experiences:
- Listen fully to your creativity: Discover the freedom that comes with dancing without guidance, embracing spontaneity and expression.
- Celebrate the organic collective spirit: Invite your agency to connect with yourself and others through the dance.
- Feel the feels: Allow for curiosity, openness and non-judgement to offer their gifts to you and the space.
Flow of the evening
Doors open at 19.15 and close promptly at 19.45. Please note entry after 19.45 isn’t possible.
- Welcome + Introduction: After a guided warm-up through the body, we’ll have a general welcome and introduction to the On Tape concept before we go into the dance.
- Dance + Music: Let go of any preconceived notions you might have about dance. Unlike anything you’ve experienced before, there is no choreography or special moves in this space. The music is played in a form of a wave where the rhythms will rise to a crescendo and then gently fall – and you’ll get to discover how it feels to move to those beats, moment by moment. During the dance, you’ll be guided with some words of inspiration and invitations (never instructions) to enhance your experience.
- Take it Further – gathering after class: Once the official dance is over, we open the space for all who want to stay and connect. There will be snacks, opportunities for exchange and spaces for quiet reflections, too.
- No phones: To allow for greatest spontaneity, creativity and freedom of expression, no phones on the dance floor.
