Staccato: Rhythm of the heart!
For me that’s always a good thing to remember.
Staccato has its most profound quality when its rooted in flow, where it can be connected to the heart, to love, to generosity and compassion.

This 2 upcoming weeks I'll let the classes be inspired by the rhythm of staccato.

Staccato is the rhythms where the beat and the heat comes in.
Where passion comes in, in many different ways. What if we let that passion and heat be rooted in our flow.

If I say Staccato, I get an instant feeling of life energy exploding in me. For me, staccato has always been a rhythm I enjoyed.
Flowing is the rhythms of softening and melting into who, what and how I am. Delightful and nourishing in so many ways. Staccato shoots, at the same time, straight to my heart and opens it.

Staccato invites me to rise up, to expand, to expose, to explode from inside out. There is a joy that comes with that energy. It’s the rush of life energy that wakes me up and that brings me forward. It’s not necessary the joy of “joyful” emotions, but much more the joy of being alive. The joy of feeling connected to me and others.

In that rush I can feel the need to ground myself, to be able to move the life-force, that wakes me up. I can feel myself expanding in both directions. Downwards to connect to the ground. Punching my feet on and in the ground. And up and around with energy that wants expression and moves through me. The deeper I ground, the bigger the staccato that I can hold.

I feel and understand that staccato is the rhythm of the heart. I can feel the energy igniting in my hips, it moves up from there to the heart and out. Here, all the flavors of the heart can become sensible, visible, accessible.
I enjoy exploring that landscape with others, as I take it as a celebration of being alive together.

This and next weeks upcoming classes are inspired by the rhythm of Staccato.

Flow as the mother or base drum of all rhythms

I was having a morning walk in the park close to where I live, making an effort to find my flow. Starting to tune in to my connection to earth and following my impulses. When I saw a little open space with some grass I felt the urge to lie down, in the grass with the higher grass waving around me. The mild autumn sun on my face. I could sense this deep letting go. Letting go of tension, letting go of holding myself together, what creates some tension too.
A deep surrender to the earth. And as soon as I surrendered I could feel the support and the holding of the earth. I this way remebering why we tend to call her "mother earth."
Moving towards home I found this black feather. As Gabrielle Roth, as she was called "the raven" said hi to me.

The Rhythm of Flowing

Flow is the mother of all rhythms, its the starting point of any movement, to any sense of getting somewhere.
Flow is a state of surrendering to movement, the movement of life, to our connection to the earth, to our connection with gravity, to the physicality of our body, to the way that energy moves through.
Its a deep surrender to the life as it is, right now. From here we can move, start, change, create, communicatie.
But is starts here and now, where we are.
Here and now is the place where every new movement starts.
This upcoming 2 weeks I wil focus the classes of the rhythm of flowing. We will dance all the rhythms, but we facus on exploring the part of flowing of the 5Rhythms as a base and a nurturing of our dance.

We dance to reclaim our brilliant ability to disappear in something bigger, something safe, a space without a critic or a judge or an analyst. The beat is a lover that never disappoints and, like all lovers, it demands 100 percent surrender. It has the power to seduce moves we couldn’t dream. It grabs us by the belly, turns us inside out and leaves us abruptly begging for more… We dance to fall in love with the spirit in all things.
