As for dance, ballroom in particular seems to count as body work in itself. A lot of people have their posture and presentation transformed by 6 months of ballroom to a degree that years of swing or salsa usually fails to achieve.
Ballroom teaches people to take a certain controlled posture. For me that’s not the goal of body work. I think that 5 rythms qualifies more as body work than your average ballroom class.
It teaches people to control their posture, but I wouldn’t say it aims at a posture, as the different dances are not identical in technique and the particular movements they teach.
I know piddley about the 5 rhythms, so I have no frame of reference. Do you see fairly consistent improvement in posture and presentation by those who practice 5 rhythms?

Unfortunately it took me some time to notice this comment. Still more unfortunate, I don’t have enough data to answer the question.
