About Mark Bonder
Hey, Mark here – a harmonious blend of musician, mentor, and healing guide. My mission? Catalyzing transformative change in your life through the rhythmic dance of music, dynamic movement, and the delicate touch of body/energy work.
At the heart of my approach is a profound paradox: guiding you to a predictable outcome, albeit via the most unexpected of paths. It’s about amplifying your self-awareness, enhancing your presence, invigorating your stamina, and bolstering your confidence.
I venerate the wild, unrestrained expression of the self, free from the fetters of judgment. To this end, I curate sanctuaries of trust and safety, where you can unfurl your truest self and navigate your needs. My purpose? To serve as your beacon, illuminating your journey to becoming more than you ever envisioned. Dive deeper, soar higher, and be the vibrant YOU.

“I have grown up in a context where physical, mental, and emotional work has been around me my entire life. I am myself an Esalen massage practitioner and teacher of the 5Rhythms®. In regards to Mark Bonder, you must imagine yourself an instrument that is being intuitively played by a master. We are made up of energetic lines and connections. Mark strums and touches just the places that are most needed for healing.”

“…you gave my body and my being a gentle nudge in the direction of good health and feeling better”uches just the places that are most needed for healing”
I want to thank you for the energy work . . . what you did was subtle, very in tune with and sensitive to my condition, and positively effective. It felt like you gave my body and my being a gentle nudge in the direction of good health and feeling better, and I was able to respond appropriately, intuitively.”

“Practicing with him cultivates a path of transformation”
I deeply cherish Mark’s 5R classes. His exquisitely curated music selection builds the foundation for a fun and rich dance experience. And Mark’s intuitive verbal guidance invites us to embrace ourselves in kind and gentle ways, welcoming and including all that is. Practicing with him cultivates a path of transformation. I am forever grateful for his dedication to the practice and his students.

“It is a delight to dance with Mark”
Dancing under Mark’s direction is like being gently guided toward your innermost self. In his classes it feels as if he is reading from a well-known map of deeper being and self-understanding. Anything difficult or challenging in your life always feels more pliable. Joyful things always feel more expansive and full. It is a delight to dance with Mark.
