Endless Wave Vol. 1

I take 5Rhythms classes regularly but wanted something to push me on days I'm not able to attend a live class. At first I was afraid I would get bored of hearing these same two Waves on a regular basis, but that's the magic of the 5Rhythms practice: Each dance is a new journey!The first Wave is guided by Gabrielle Roth, which is such a gift now that she has passed away. How wonderful to hear her voice! I use this guided one on the days I feel uninspired. The second half is just music, no voice, a percussion-based Wave. By the time I get to Lyrical, I am in a different state.Confession: I also use the Chaos tracks from this album for random cardio workouts. I like doing jumping jacks and "speed skaters" to the music; perfect beats per minute to work up a sweat in a short amount of time.

A friend introduced me to this guided dance CD and I really enjoyed it. My half-hour of following Roth's rhythms and encouragements and improvising my own movement left me feeling incredibly expressed, relaxed, and liberated. Rather than my mind leading my body, for once my body led my mind. Definitely a valuable experience.I haven't listened to the second half, so I won't comment. Neither have I seen the video, but my friend said watching others do the guided dance detracts from the experience. I bet she's right; I danced with my eyes closed most of the time anyway. If you're interested, get the cd.

Great album for those weeks you can't get to a 5 Rhythms class. Gabrielle's voice is great and her instruction is surgical and poetic.

So good!Arrived on time as described!

I have recently discovered the 5Rhythms and this is the perfect CD for beginning a movement practice. There are many more CDs from Gabrielle Roth and I intend to get them all, eventually.

Wonderful product, a deep ecstatic dance experience. Loved this CD

If you are looking for a CD that'll take you away while moving your body in new sensuous, uninhibited, spiritual ways, this is the one to get. Enjoy!!

I was a bit disappointed in this CD after attending a 5 Rhythms class where the music was fabulous and very diverse. The first track is great as it's a guided lesson on doing this dance, but the music overall is not very inspiring. I will however be trying many more Gabrielle Roth CD's in future.

I bought this after trying out the 5 Rhythms at a workshop in November. It's brilliant. I love the way the voices just guides me through what parts of the body to focus on but the movements are up to me, so I can be as energetic or as calm as I like. definitely encouraging me to move more.

If you don't know Gabrielle Roth, get on the case! Her philosophy so dance is so inspiring, helps you work out all your emotions and get in touch with who you really are.The 5 rhthyms practice is best understood before you start but you can still dance away without knowing anything. the music here is great, 1 guided practice and one not guided. It's kinda primal and touches in places we probably haven't been touched before!

This CD opens up the power of dance to you right in your own home, no classes needed. Powerful, great music and a wonderful way to move your body and your energy and gain insight into yourself.

Great to wake up to
