This is a calling.
A return to the wild, instinctual power that has been living inside us all along.
Beneath the noises of culture, the weight of “shoulds”,
the tight cages of expectations - we are our own force of nature.
What if we could simply be with one another without having to perform,
prove, and pretend?
What if, instead of competing or comparing, we let
our presence become the sweet, fierce, healing medicine we each need?
This is a space for all women.
All colors, all shapes, all stories are welcomed here.
Let us encounter one another - raw, deep, tender, fierce, hilarious,
fabulous, human and divine.
Do we dare to admit: we actually need each other to be truly free?
Freedom is sweeter when we share it.

Qibei Shen Steiner is a 5Rhythms® teacher, holistic healer, and Marriage and Family Psychotherapist trainee - 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, Qibei dedicated her whole life listening, deeply, to what aches, what awakens, and how to nurture authentic connection. 5Rhythms® dance, for her, is prayer, medicine, and creative laboratory. Her work invites people out of numbness and into their own raw aliveness, where the wild heart remembers itself. She believes embodied presence is what transforms mundane life into juicy and magical blessings. The sacred art of coming home to our bodies awakens the primordial intelligence living in each one of us. In her movement classes, Qibei creates a trauma-sensitive, inclusive place for all bodies.
