Deborah Bacon Dilts began teaching the 5Rhythms® in 1998. A native Californian but resident of France for the last 40 years, she has participated in the growth of the personal development field there in her various capacities as an interpreter of teachers and trainers in personal growth and consciousness work, as a trainer herself of relaxation and body therapists, and more recently as a certified mindfulness meditation teacher. Also trained in Open Floor, she feels deeply that dance alone is not enough for deep transformation to occur. She is currently exploring the synergistic combination of sitting meditation and dance. Her involvement in the ICMTA during the past eight years has been a rich source of learning, growth and connection. The golden thread that runs through all of these activities is connection with self, other and the greater field, her passion in this precious life.

I'm the first teacher after Gabrielle Roth and Jonathan Horan to offer the archetypal workshop 'God, Sex & the Body'."
