Als '''5Rhythmen''' wird eine Bewegungs- oder auch Tanz-Meditation bezeichnet, die von [[Gabrielle Roth]], einer us-amerikanischen Tänzerin und Musikerin in den späten 1970er Jahren entwickelt wurde.<ref>{{cite web|last=North|first=Madelaine|title=TALK OF THE TOWN: Just do it Rhythm is a dancer

Weitere Einflüsse stammen aus dem Gestaltansatz, dem Human Potential Movement sowie der Transpersonalen Psychologie. Fundamentale Grundannahme der 5Rhythmen ist die Annahme, dass alles Energie ist, die sich in Wellen, Mustern und Rhythmen zeigt. (Patterns in nature) 

Gabriele Roth beschrieb die Praxis der 5Rhythmen als Reise der Seele, und war der Meinung, dass Menschen im Tanz durch die Bewegung des Körpers, die Lösung des Herzens und die  Befreiung des Geistes in Kontakt kommen mit der Essenz ihrer Seele, die wiederum eine Quelle der Inspiration sei für das unbeschränkte Potential und die Möglichkeiten eines Menschen. 

== Grundlagen ==
Die Praxis der 5 Rhythmen, so formulierte es [[Gabrielle Roth]], bringt den Körper in Bewegung, um den Geist zu beruhigen. Dabei folgt die Musik, nach der in freier Bewegung getanzt wird, den namengebenden fünf Rhythmen: flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical und stillness. Diese fünf Abschnitte  werden in einer direkt aufeinanderfolgenden Sequenz getanzt, und sind daher auch als "Wave" (Welle) bekannt. Üblicherweise dauert eine Welle mit den fünf Rhythmen mindestens eine Stunde, hinzu kommt in der Regel eine aufwärmende Vorbereitung. In einer (meist abendlich angebotenen) Session von etwa 1,5 - 2,5 h werden je nach Lehrer/Leiter zwei kürzere Wellen hintereinander oder eine lange Welle am Stück getanzt.

==The 5Rhythms Maps==

The work is taught through a series of maps that explore the terrain of the inner and outer worlds of individuals, their relationships to others and the space around them. The maps offer a soul journey by exploring embodiment, emotions, the life cycle, the psyche, and the archetypes. The rhythms offer understanding of people's innate powers – being, loving, knowing, seeing and healing.

The first map, "Waves" teaches embodiment of the five distinct rhythms. To embody the rhythms means to access the deep internal wisdom that human bodies contain. The "Heartbeat" map teaches how people have embodied and how they express the emotions of fear, anger, sadness, joy and compassion; while the "Cycles" map provides insight and understanding about how one has internalized conditioning and relationships throughout the life cycle, specifically in the stages of birth, childhood, puberty, maturity and death. Insight and understanding of the ego is delivered through the psyche map, "Mirrors".

While the practice is transformative and can be therapeutic, Gabrielle Roth does not describe 5Rhythms as a form of dance therapy. However, many therapists have obtained a 5Rhythms certification to support their therapeutic practice.<ref>[http://5rhythms.com 5Rhythms]. Date=15 March 2014</ref>

== Zentren und Lehrer ==
Gabrielle Roth gründete 1977 ''The Moving Center'' in New York, in dem sie Workshops anbot und begann 5Rhythmen-Lehrer aus- und weiterzubilden. <ref>[http://www.5rhythms.com/the-moving-center-new-york/ 5Rhythms: Moving Center New York]. Retrieved February 4, 2014</ref> Gemeinsam mit den 5Rhythms-Lehrerinnen Andrea Juhan, Kathy Altman and Lori Saltzman eröffnete Roth 1994 einen Ableger von The Moving Center in [[Mill Valley]] in Kalifornien, diese Zentrum wurde gemeinschaflich geleitet. .<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.souldance.be/vormingscentrum/algemeen/lesgevers/kathyaltman.html | title=Vormingscentrum lesgevers & begeleiders: Kathy Altman | publisher=Souldance | year=2012 | accessdate=2014-02-04}} (in English)</ref> Altman, Saltzman and Juhan entwickelten und lehrten zunehmend ihre eigene Bewegungsform, genannt [[Open Floor]], so dass das kalifornische Zentrum schließlich umgenannt wurde in Open Floor School California.<ref name="Open Floor School California">{{cite web|title=Open Floor School California|url=http://openfloor.org/find-open-floor/california-school/staff|accessdate=2016-10-16}}</ref>

==Reception==

Charlotte Macleod, writing in the ''[[London Evening Standard]]'', describes dancing the 5Rhythms as a kind of antidote to life in a large city, and how she was attracted to a dance class by a video of Thom Yorke. The class leaves her "mentally and physically refreshed, and oddly connected to the other dancers." The dance was "a kind of moving meditation" for her.<ref name="EveningStandard">{{cite web | url=http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/lifestyle/thom-yorke-and-the-new-5rhythms-dance-craze-6389419.html | title=Thom Yorke and the new 5Rhythms dance craze | work=London Evening Standard |  date=2011-04-06 | accessdate=2012-03-17 | author=Macleod, Charlotte}}</ref>

Christine Ottery, writing in ''[[The Guardian]]'', states that "ecstatic dancing has an image problem" and "encompasses everything from large global movements such as 5Rhythms and [[Biodanza]] to local drum'n'dance meet-ups". She suggests that readers may "find 5 Rhythms a good place to start", and does so herself: "Nervously, I stretch and warm my muscles. As the rhythms take off, I shake off my shyness." She dances in different ways, alone or with partners. "My body is expressing itself - it's utter abandonment and a complete high."<ref name="Guardian">{{cite web | url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2009/jul/21/ecstatic-dance?INTCMP=SRCH | title=Ecstatic dance: rhythm to beat the blues | work=The Guardian | date=2009-07-21 | accessdate=2012-03-18 | author=Ottery, Christine}}</ref>

Jed Lipinski, writing in ''[[The New York Times]]'', notes that 5Rhythms is suitable for all ages, unlike some other forms of dance and movement. He observes that "At a recent 5Rhythms class ... in Manhattan, more than 100 people were gleefully writhing and leaping to  tribal drumming  courtesy of Ms. Roth's husband, Robert Ansell... Dancers occasionally released  guttural howls, as if exorcising the demons of the workweek."<ref name="NYT">{{cite news | url=http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/05/fashion/05Sober.html?_r=1 | work=The New York Times | department= Fashion and Style | title=Dance, Dance, Dance.

''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' writes of 5Rhythms that "I love it precisely because it isn't based on learned steps. Instead, the idea is to find your own dance by moving your body in whatever way you fancy. For those of us keen to improve our fitness, it can also be an energetic aerobic workout."<ref name=Telegraph>{{cite web | url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/3346805/Feel-the-rhythm-from-head-to-heal.html | title=Feel the rhythm from head to heal | publisher=Telegraph.co.uk | date=2007-01-06 | accessdate=2012-07-01}}</ref>

==Research==
Academics working in mental health and other fields are starting to carry out research about the 5Rhythms. The [[Mental Health Foundation]], a UK charity published the 'Dancing for Living Report' describing a group of women's experience of 5Rhythms dance and the effects on their emotional wellbeing.<ref>{{Citation | last=Cook | first=Sarah  | last2=Ledger

==Parody in popular culture==
The British TV sitcom ''[[Peep Show (TV series)|Peep Show]]'' featured an episode ("Dance Class") where the two principal male characters attend a 'Rainbow Rhythms' class which invites its participants to interpretatively dance 'colours', featuring guidance and a closing circle reminiscent of a 5Rhythms class.
