Sweat Your Prayers® -- City Waves 

Sweat Your Prayers® is a communal 5Rhythms® practice, moving through Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness. It’s a dance meditation where sweat becomes prayer, a release, and a path to healing.

As Gabrielle Roth said, “The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray.”

There’s no choreography—just your dance, your rhythm. Everyone is welcome! Bring water, curiosity, and a readiness to move.

Bettina will be leading:

A 5Rhythms® Practice with Bettina 

Starting in February 2025, we invite you to experience 5Rhythms in our weekly movement meditation classes—a practice designed to help release the stress and tension held in your body, muscles, and nervous system. Each session guides you to let go of what you no longer need, moving you from chaos to stillness and helping you reconnect with a renewed sense of clarity and vitality.

No experience is necessary. Just come as you are, dressed comfortably. We dance barefoot or in dance shoes, allowing you to feel grounded in every step. This class encourages you to explore your own movements and experience the benefits of somatic release, discovering new ways to express and release with guidance from certified 5Rhythms teacher Bettina. Each session invites you to connect with the rhythm of the music, your body, and the supportive community around you.

5Rhythms takes you through five natural patterns—flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, and stillness. This journey helps you release deep-seated tension and rediscover a sense of ease, freedom, and joy.

Whether you’re reigniting an old passion or stepping into something new, 5Rhythms offers a space for genuine movement, somatic release, and connection. Join us, and let yourself be danced from chaos to stillness.

📅 When: Thursdays weekly, starting in February February 7 PM to 8:30 PM

📍 Where: JoeGood, San Francisco

Reserve "Be Danced"

 The 5Rhythms® was created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art, and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures, and age groups to transform sufferings into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5rhthytns are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock-star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community.
