5Rhythms® Waves

An introduction to 5Rhythms® Waves with Ben Deutsch.

Want to move more freely, more consciously, more joyfully? This evening workshop with accredited 5Rhythms® teacher Ben Deutsch will be a space to re-connect with our bodies and to offer ourselves the freedom we crave. Using some simple exercises, well chosen music, intuition, and a dash of humour, Ben will hold space for the group to move individually and together.

Through movement, we will explore qualities of fluidity, clarity, surrender, ease and presence.

Who Am I When I'm With You? by Kai Brooks

Who Am I When I’m With You? The debut solo show from Coventry born artist and Assembly House resident Kai Brooks examines human connection through the medium of paint. 

“This last year, more than any other, l've felt life change so quickly, people coming and going - new faces. Missing faces that aren't around so often anymore. Does that painting become a relic once you're gone? An old portrait is no longer a token of gratitude but a record of something that was. Either way, every minute that you sat opposite me as I painted will be held on that canvas.”
