ABOUT DEAN
Dean Kayum, 5Rhythms certified teacher since 2010
“I spent years searching and exploring different meditation and movement practices until in 1996 I stepped onto a 5Rhythms dance floor for the first time; once I stepped on I never stepped off. For me life is the dance and the dance is life. I love this practice, simple and profound. I am not interested in being a beautiful, incredible dancer and yet the more I dance the more I feel that, simply because of my experience of just "being" in movement. This practice is deeply therapeutic, healing, fun and ecstatic. On the dance floor I feel free to explore my rage, my passion, humility and whatever else emerges from the dance. Whatever your age, size or shape, join me on the dance floor - all you need is a beating heart and a breathing body.”

ABOUT THE 5RHYTHMS:
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 suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms 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.
