Steffi Paepcke
Steffi Paepcke
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.

Tina Marinic
Tina Marinic
Tina is deeply thankful to have found 5Rhythms in 2012. Confused but intrigued, she kept going back. Slowly, she began to trust her own body and let go of self sabotaging thoughts. She became a 5Rhythms teacher to deepen her own practice. Over time, she felt the call to bring this potent medicine to others.
Tina seeks to empower people with her offerings as this has been the dance’s greatest gift to her. She hopes to help others discover their power and to remind them that their body’s wisdom is their greatest teacher. She also offers 5Rhythms classes in Berkeley - https://boundlesswaves.dance/

Far beyond providing a fun workout and amazing stress relief, practicing the 5Rhythms® has helped Dora connect deeply to herself, others, and Source. It has helped her navigate the chaos and embrace the beauty of life.
With immense gratitude for the dance, she 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.
