The Team

Sylvie has taught weekly 5Rhythms® classes and workshops since 2000.  She has studied psychology, indigenous healing rituals, energy medicine, and sound healing. 

Sylvie is often described as a catalytic shape-shifter because of her ability to meet people right where they are and move with them into new possibilities. You can learn more about Sylvie's work at syzygydanceproject.org

Steffi enjoys the immense freedom of the 5Rhythms® as a dance form without choreography.  Since 2015, she has relied on the practice for meditation, self-reflection, body positivity, connection, experimentation, and creative expression. 

In her teaching, Steffi seeks to tangibly connect the 5Rhythms® practice to everyday life, and to hold a space in which dancers can attune to their bodies' intuition. 

Qibei is a 5Rhythms® teacher, holistic healer, and Marriage and Family Psychotherapist trainee. She moves between worlds: the clinical and the mystical, the tender and the fierce, the silent knowing of the bones and the unspeakable beauty of Spirit cracking open.

Dance, for her, is prayer, medicine, and a creative laboratory. Her work invites people out of numbness and into their own raw aliveness, where the wild heart remembers itself. In her movement classes, Qibei creates a trauma-sensitive, inclusive place for all bodies. She teaches 5Rhythms and leads Women's Circle in Berkeley, CA. (www.qibei.be)

Practicing conscious dance has helped Dora connect deeply to herself, others, and Source.  The practice serves as a compass as she navigates the chaos and embraces the beauty of life.

With immense gratitude for the dance, Dora is inspired to deepen her practice by bringing it to her Peninsula neighbors. Dora hopes to build a strong and healthy community of dancers and teachers. She is certified in Sylvie Minot’s Outreach Movement Facilitator Training.
