GOOD MEDICINE

GET A DOSE OF (YOUR OWN) GOOD MEDICINE.

A 5Rhythms® Movement Workshop with Anne Marie Hogya 

Like good medicine, what if we offer ourselves exquisite care?

What if we learn to make choices that sustain us, groove patterns that honour us, and live lives that become the very remedy we need?

We can.

Let’s summon our deep, wise, life-affirming medicine.

Join me for a weekend workshop in Victoria, BC, Canada.

Here, we’ll tend to our bodies with compassion, move together as a community, and mix up a cauldron of connection with ourselves and each other.

Come get a dose of your own good medicine.

In this 5Rhythms® Waves movement | dance workshop we will explore the physical terrain of our innate wisdom, no experience required. The movement tools, techniques and inspiration you learn here can be immediately applied to daily life. Designed for adults of every age and ability.

WORDS FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS:

“Anne Marie is a teacher with both heart and skill. Steeped in her own deep practice of using movement as a gateway to personal growth and transformation, her teaching and presence are good medicine for the complex times we are living in individually and collectively.”

“The workshop was extraordinary in so many ways. I was able to drop into a ‘wild’ that I hadn’t tasted for a long time. The encouragement and verbal prompts to keep curious, keep exploring allowed radiant healing around truth to unfold.”

“The facilitation was grounding and extremely supportive. The group was remarkable in their cohesion and feeling of safety. The music was next level awesome.”

“Thank you, Anne Marie, for the graceful guidance and genuine care and compassion. For the elixir of music and movement from the heart…for the intensity and integrity that opened the door to set us free.”

“I want to thank you for being a shining light and powerhouse of wisdom. Listening to my energy and allowing it to flow has always been my greatest fear and yet my best practice- and you remind me and inspire me to keep doing this no matter what life brings. Grateful for you is an understatement.”

“It was FABULOUS!! I love the safe space you so graciously provide for us to explore who we are and what we need. I love when you say “Yes, just like that” and so I can be who I am in that very moment, as I do need encouragement to be my real self. I love how I am given the opportunity to weave my way through the workshop at a pace that is right for me. I love how the crescendo of the workshop builds and we land in a place of calm. I love the space between in stillness. I love how you enable each of us (with no judgement) to open up with our words to express what we may be going through. Thank you for this. What a great gift you have. The work that you do is so powerful!”

“Anne Marie models so clearly “bravery in action” with her ability to teach in a way that feels alive, spontaneous and truly “in the moment.” The workshop experience brought me back into a deeply grounded sense of trust in my body wisdom and I experienced a reconnection with a deep trust and gratitude for myself, my ancestry and this ever-evolving existence we call life. Anne Marie’s articulation of how she “listens and follows” in words and embodiment is so fluid and filled with the present moment that it is easily observable, recognizable and good, good, medicine for us all!”
