An instinctive way of living
Welcome to Wild Instinct, Gina's last 5rhythms workshop in 2023, at Balmain Town Hall in Sydney, on Gadigal/Wangal Eora country. Sovereignty was never ceded.
SNAP SUPER EARLYBIRD UNTIL JULY 9TH. $100 deposit snags your spot. All tix are fully refundable until 3 weeks prior to workshop.
I am so so excited to bring this workshop to you. It's a dive into waking up the voice in our belly that keeps us safe, and using it as an ally to give us ground in our choices.
Combining maps I've been working with for decades with 5rhythms movement meditation, which is one of the most powerful ceremonies of transformation I've ever found, we can start to break habits of overthinking and fall into trusting the deeper voice of instinct.
We teach our bodies how to feel our way through the most challenging situations. For a night and two days, we explore the vast, beautiful territory of wisdom accessible and available to every single human.
You don't need any conscious dance experience. You need no fitness as you take it at your own pace, and follow the natural flow of your own energy, rather than pushing. You can dance in a chair, or on the floor. And at the end of the weekend you will dance back into life with sparkling new eyes, passion, life force, and a whole new set of tools to help you create a life that works.
If this calls, come play!
It's going to be super juicy and powerful. Follow the link below to sign up with just $100 deposit.

WHAT'S THIS WORKSHOP ALL ABOUT, THEN?
How often in our lives are we told to listen to external authority, to hand over our sovereignty to those who ‘know what’s best for us’? How often do we listen to the voice that tells us that we ‘should’ behave a certain way, look a certain way, be a certain way, and in the process we shrink a little, or put our own needs last? Or worse still, start to believe that we are smaller than we really are, or that our needs don't matter..
Inside each and every person is a guiding principle, a wild instinctive voice which knows who and what we truly are and why we are here. This voice has the ability to make decisions that can lead us toward a healthy, nourishing life. If we listen. If we let it. If we trust ourselves.
In this workshop we reject all gurus bar the teaching of our own innate wisdom and our own moving body. Our bodies contain all the information we need.
By falling inside and listening to our instinctive voice, we give it power, learn to trust it and feed back our own experience into its teachings, gathering our wisdom and moving into our personal power.
This retreat is a 3 day exploration of the Waves map, into the delicious wisdom of your energy as it moves through your body in your own perfect rhythm, your own perfect song.
It doesn’t matter if you have never danced 5 Rhythms®, that’s the beauty of this practice. If you can walk you can dance. And if you ask the 87 year old great grandmother who danced for four days in her chair, you don’t even need to be able to walk!
Get in contact with any questions, and I look forward to dancing with you in November, as we weave a basket of connection, dance what is true and explore the ten thousand miles between our feet and our hearts.
Lots of love
Gigi

With gratitude always for the indigenous custodians of the land on which we dance. Thank you to the Gadigal/Wangal Eora mob for leaving footprints for us to follow. We dance on stolen ground.

Movement as Medicine
5 Rhythms® movement and dance meditation is one of the most powerful tools for transformation I have encountered in three decades of a planet-wide personal healing journey. From founder Gabrielle Roth, you'll find a system of elegance and intelligence that reveals more about self and deeper maps of reality the more we dance.
It is so beautifully simple; there are no 'moves', there is no way of getting it wrong, it is simply about dancing what is true, with freedom and permission, whatever that looks like. You just turn up and be you, in all your messy glory, and move what is there.
In the process, the stuck and wounded parts of us can come up to be moved, and we can leave our baggage on the dance floor. On the other side of that is freedom!
So come and dance into your own wild, wise self, in a safe and gentle container, with other journeying souls, for a weekend of transformation and homecoming to a great soundtrack, with other wonderful humans also on a journey of self dicovery.

About the facilitator
Gina Chick
For those of you who haven't met me yet...
My name is Gina Chick (but many people know me as Gigi).
Last year I spent 67 days completely solo, surviving in lutruwita (Tasmania) as a participant on Alone Australia. I was the last person standing to win the show, using my instincts and connection to country, which is what I'm teaching in this workshop.
I'm an international facilitator in transformation, using many modalities. I offer Heart of the Huntress retreats exploring archetypes of power. I also run Rewilding camps in Australia, plus regular Vision Quests in the lineage of Grandfather Stalking Wolf; and teach Quest Protector and Seven Levels of Quest in that same lineage. I am an accredited 5 Rhythms® dance and movement meditation teacher, a breathworker, bodyworker and shamanic healer. I've travelled the world for thirty years collecting tools for transformation that work, and I am constantly doing my own homework.
I bring all of these skills and tools to my workshops with a liberal dose of humour, profanity and realness. I am deeply committed to providing a safe container for transformational work, and respecting the internal authority of every single person, always. That's you. Your autonomy matters.
You take things at your pace. You choose which stepping stones to move to, and how long to stay on them. Your journey is uniquely personal and your timing is your own. My job is to open the doors of possibility and to hold the container while you choose which ones you go through, to support you in your journey and to guide you when you ask, providing tools that have been proven to work for me, and if they work for you as well, awesome! And if not, just chuck them away You take what you need, when you need it, gathering your own information, feeding your own library of wisdom.
So much love, from my wild heart to yours.
Gina
