Discover the transformative power of ecstatic dance with Gabrielle Roth’s The Wave. This dynamic moving meditation is based on five rhythms—flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, and stillness—each guiding you into deeper self-expression and emotional release. Roth emphasizes that dance is for everyone, regardless of experience, and invites you to surrender to the music, allowing your body to move naturally and freely. 🌟 What You’ll Discover: 🔹 The Five Rhythms: Flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, and stillness. 🔹 Embodied Expression: Using movement to access deeper emotions. 🔹 Surrender & Flow: Letting go of control and trusting the body’s wisdom. 🔹 Ecstatic Dance: A practice for healing, creativity, and self-discovery. ✨ Highlights: ✔️ No dance experience needed—just move with the rhythm. ✔️ Experience dance as a tool for emotional release and self-connection. ✔️ Discover how movement can be a meditation in motion. 🌿 Why Watch? The Wave is more than dance—it’s a journey into presence, creativity, and liberation. Whether you're seeking stress relief, self-expression, or a deeper mind-body connection, Gabrielle Roth’s approach offers a powerful and freeing experience.

I filmed Gabrielle Roth for my film "Dances of Ecstasy" in 2003. Last week I returned to the original footage of Gabrielle and wanted to share more of her. In honor of a great artist, teacher, writer and theatre director who has inspired thousands of people to awaken and rediscover the dance within.
