Livello God, Sex and the Body con Alex Mackay
Residenziale 1-5 maggio 2026 Assisi⠀⠀⠀
“God, Sex and the Body è sempre stato una parte profonda e fondamentale del percorso dei 5Ritmi. Ha influenzato il mio modo di essere, il mio stile di insegnamento e, più in profondità, la mia accettazione di chi sono e di chi non sono.” ~ Gabrielle Roth
Nella serie di mappe che compongono il percorso della danza dei 5Ritmi, God, Sex and the Body è un'iniziazione all'incarnazione dell’anima. Un viaggio profondamente personale, una celebrazione senza pari, un rituale del tuo Io più sexy e sacro. Questo viaggio è un invito a dilatare la nostra immaginazione verso un'innocenza dimenticata a lungo, spostandoci in una gamma di archetipi femminili e maschili, per indossarli, penetrarli e dar loro espressione. Nessun altro può essere esattamente come te. Nessun altro può incarnare la tua anima, manifestare la tua magia o avere la tua stessa curiosità. In parte amanti, in parte artisti, in parte divini, siamo nati per scuotere il mondo e farci strada nel cuore l'uno dell'altro.
Fondata sulla pratica del movimento dei 5Ritmi, questa esperienza può liberarci e ispirarci a ritrovarci un po' più affascinati l'uno dall'altro e dal mistero che li circonda.
IL RITIRO
Il Centro Ritiri "Le Case" è una tenuta di campagna immersa nel Parco Naturale del Monte Subasio, tra ruscelli e boschi, fattorie e campi biologici. C'è ampio spazio per stare in solitudine o in compagnia, per esplorare gli archetipi dentro e fuori la danza.

“God, Sex and the Body is and always will be a profound and integral part of the 5Rhythms® curriculum. It has personally informed my way of being, my teaching style, and, most deeply, my acceptance of who I am and who I am not.” ~ Gabrielle Roth
⠀⠀⠀
In the series of maps that comprise the dancing path of the 5Rhythms®, God, Sex and the Body is an initiation into being an embodied soul. It is a deeply personal journey, a celebration like no other, a ritual for the hot and holy you.
⠀⠀⠀
This journey is a call to stretch our imaginations with a long forgotten innocence and move through a spectrum of feminine and masculine archetypes, to dress them up, get inside them and give them expression. No one else can be exactly like you. No one else can embody your soul, or project your magic or have your specific curiosity. Part lover, part artist, part god, we were born to rock the world and feel our way into each other’s hearts.
⠀⠀⠀
Grounded in the 5Rhythms movement practice, this experience can liberate and inspire us to emerge a bit more fascinated with each other and the mystery of it all.
About Alex Mackay
⠀⠀⠀
Alex began teaching 5Rhythms in the 1990's in Manchester and Liverpool, and now offers workshops and retreats internationally. Gabrielle Roth called her Raven Sister. She is known for light and depth in her teaching, offering few well-chosen words, and opening a sense of wonder. She is energetic, embodied, and creative. https://www.alexravensister.com
⠀⠀⠀
“For 25 years I've witnessed Alex Mackay as a dedicated embodiment of all the maps of our 5Rhythms mandala. In her committed practice, a willingness to continue moving, exploring and seeing herself through the deep awareness of her own rhythms. In her teaching, a lyrical playfulness delivered with mystery, creativity, and maturity.
⠀⠀⠀
The more we co-created along her path studying our God, Sex, & the Body maps, the deeper my respect has grown for Alex's embodied presence of the shapeshifter -- a soul dancing without attachment and with intention to unearth the uniqueness and balance of nurture and action, of fascination and adventure, of intuition and integrity." - Jonathan Horan

RETREAT VENUE
Le Case Retreat Center is a country estate immersed in the splendid setting of the Monte Subasio Natural Park, among streams and woods, farms and organic fields. The venue is located in an ancient agricultural village, which has been completely renovated. Le Case offers delightful rooms, large indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, terraces, a swimming pool…all nestled between olive trees and vineyards, surrounded by lush nature. The many walking trails close to the estate invite you to explore the wonderful bridges, ponds, and fields nearby.
There is plenty of space to be in solitude or in community to explore the archetypes on and off the dancefloor.
The medieval town of Assisi, framed by the long, undulating hills and forests of Umbria, is a recognized UNESCO World Heritage site, is famous for being the birthplace to saint Francesco d’Assisi and it’s historical role in spreading the Franciscan Order. The town has been a spiritual place of pilgrimage since the 13th century and is one of the most stunning medieval towns in Italy. We recommend discovering some of the rich history and architectural beauty, such as the Basilica di San Francesco, or the Basilica di Santa Chiara with their remarkable array of frescoes and paintings.
