Dear peo­ple inter­est­ed in our fes­ti­val

When choos­ing this year’s title, we first asked our­selves what the present time is call­ing for. What is need­ed? What do we want to address and deep­en?
With “Hope” we have not only found a won­der­ful title, but, as we noticed just recent­ly, we “coin­ci­den­tal­ly” picked up the name of the orga­ni­za­tion we val­ue and sup­port so much. AND this orga­ni­za­tion is cel­e­brat­ing its 25th birth­day this year.
Hope is light that illu­mi­nates the dark­ness. How do we man­age to gen­er­ate or/and pre­serve hope in our world with its crises, wars and con­flicts?
Hope aris­es when we think that every­thing will be fine, that things will work out, that there will be a solu­tion. Hope is direct­ed towards the future. If we hope for a good out­come and trust that we will find help, ways and means to achieve our goals, then we are con­fi­dent and feel strength and ener­gy.
On these days, we want to explore how we can use the 5Rhythms prac­tice to achieve this. Feel invit­ed, whether you are an expe­ri­enced dancer or a new­com­er. You are very welcome.

From Sun­day, March 3, you can reg­is­ter for the 5Rhythms Fes­ti­val using the reg­is­tra­tion form here on this web­site. As the rooms avail­able on site are in high demand, don’t wait to reg­is­ter.
We are already look­ing for­ward to see­ing you, the teach­ers who will be teach­ing, Nina, who will cre­ative­ly imple­ment the mot­to “HOPE”, the helpers in the core team and the many sup­port­ers who give us, the fes­ti­val and the chil­dren in Kath­man­du hope that every­thing will turn out well.

Sit­u­at­ed in the coun­try­side, on the edge of the Alb, in a qui­et and beau­ti­ful loca­tion, space is cre­at­ed for peo­ple to come togeth­er and dance.
In Rup­pertshofen, approx. 15 km from Schwäbisch Gmünd, we can once again dance through our inner spaces as a tribe and meet our­selves and oth­ers in the process.
With the guid­ance of expe­ri­enced 5Rhythms teach­ers, we will open our­selves up to fol­low the rhythms and, in doing so, we will expe­ri­ence and feel our­selves again and again and revive the pos­i­tive qual­i­ties we some­times thought we had lost.
We start on Thurs­day with din­ner at 6.00 pm. You can check in, pitch your tent, move into your room etc. from 3.30 pm.
The first wave starts on Thurs­day evening at 7.30 pm.
On Fri­day and Sat­ur­day there will be 3 waves each last­ing approx. two and a quar­ter to two and a half hours.
