About this Event
This is a daylong 5Rhythms workshop exploring the many archetypal expressions of the Mother within us.
Beyond the personal role of motherhood, the “Mother” is a universal force: creative, nurturing, sensual, caring, wise, wild, destructive, and regenerative, and many more. In this workshop, we open space to honor all of these diverse energies as living experiences in the body and psyche. Through movement, creative exploration and ritual, we will explore the many faces of Mother within us: the ones we like and trust, and the ones we resist and avoid. We will dance the familiar, gently approach the unknown, and open space for a more whole and integrated expression to emerge.
We welcome all experiences and relationships to “mother”, whether shaped by love, longing, resistance, or anything in between. Come join us in this shared space, held and co-created by many wonderful women, including you.

Facilitators:
Qibei is a certified 5Rhythms® teacher, holistic healer, and Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) - though boxes like these never quite hold her. She moves between worlds: the clinical and the mystical, the tender and the fierce, the silent knowing of the bones and the unspeakable beauty of Spirit cracking open.
Born from early rupture and shaped by longing, she’s spent her life listening, deeply, to what aches, what awakens, and what wants to come alive. Dance, for her, is prayer, medicine, and creative laboratory. Her work invites people out of numbness and into their own raw aliveness: the place where everything dances, where the wild heart remembers itself. She believes embodied presence is what makes life juicy and magical. The sacred art of coming home to ourselves, through breath, movement, and the primordial intelligence pulsing through our veins. In her movement offerings, Qibei creates a trauma-sensitive, inclusive, healing place for all bodies, inviting the dynamic emergence of real human and beyond-human interplay.
Jennifer is an artist and a healing arts practitioner with a background that spans Expressive Arts Facilitation, Shamanism, and Energy Healing. She is passionate about calling upon creativity, intuition and embodiment as powerful allies for navigating our unique journeys. She considers herself a mystic and is deeply inspired by nature, the body, and the transformative power of art-making. She draws upon her 20 years of practice as a healing arts practitioner and artist to cultivate a compassionate, sacred, inclusive, and collaborative space for deep exploration and self-discovery.
