5 Elements Ecstatic Dance Mondays

Come as you are and join a celebration of movement, connection, and presence – a dance floor with soul ♡

We begin by arriving in the body, then journey through the five elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether – each one inviting a different energy to move through. From grounded stillness to wild expression, playful rhythms to soft release, the music carries us through body, rhythm, and presence.

Each evening is a unique experience. No choreography, no pressure – just your own rhythm, your own way.

All bodies welcome. No dance experience needed.

FIND THE WAY TO KOMPANI 415
The closest bus stop is Kvibergsskolan. When you get off the bus, just walk one minute back (with the "castle" on the right side of the road) until you see a yellow house on your right (that's Kompani 415!) – turn right into Marketenterivägen.

The closest tram stop is Bellevue (or Kviberg). From Bellevue, follow Kvibergsvägen straight towards the castle-like building, for about 10 minutes, until you see a yellow house on your left (that's Kompani 415!) – turn left into Marketenterivägen.

There's also a car parking on the opposite side of the road.

⫷ FACILITATORS ⫸

▻ Anna Lindh
I started 5 Elements Dance in Gothenburg in 2018. I am a 5 Elements Dance facilitator, a certified personal coach, and a meditation teacher. I have also studied psychology and dance and movement therapy. My goal is to help people find their way back to themselves through free movement, creative expression, and guided meditations. I love creating spaces where people can meet in authenticity and loving presence, beyond facades and the stress of everyday life. Self-compassion, self-love, and acceptance are at the core of everything I create and guide, often sprinkled with a generous dose of playfulness and joy!

▻ Navi Camilla Säregård
I am a Somatic Coach and Circling Facilitator. I have worked with body, communication and presence for over 10 years. Before that it was all about martial arts, survival and music for me, and the art of understanding the body and life well enough to find ways and creativity, and dance with everything one can imagine facing, even violence and danger. Basically, I'm still on the same track. I want to pass on tools that create opportunities for others to blossom into their unique form, with their unique superpowers, and turn what has been difficult into an asset.

Dance can mean so much to us and has always been a significant part of all cultures. My intention is to support how liberating dance can be for us, while also emphasizing the sense of community it allows us to experience. I have worked as a movement coach and group fitness instructor in Gothenburg for eight years. I am also involved in running the concept The Groovement, which hosts regular events in Gothenburg.

Mondays at 5 Elements feel like a sacred space—a temple where we come to reconnect with ourselves and with life. Through dance and music, we have the chance to express what’s alive within us in the moment. It could mean releasing something from the past week or diving deeper into parts of ourselves yet to be explored.
I’m a trained performing artist and actor, and since graduating, I’ve been working with facilitating group processes through creative expression. My dance background spans various styles, with a focus on contact improvisation and free dance.
I’m also a certified Circling facilitator, specializing in transformative connection and conscious relating.
