Rhythm of the People

Our Mission: To create opportunities for people to move, gather, and be human together.

Rhythm of the People creates opportunities where people can reconnect with themselves, with one another, and with traditions that have so much to teach us. Through dance, music, events, classes, and public programming, we imagine ways to bring people together.

To put it plainly, our work is rooted in Black and Brown social dance traditions and Asian contemplative practices that have been passed down through generations. These are old and proven ways of gathering, celebrating, and understanding ourselves. We continue to learn, practice and grow because of them. And we hope to carry the traditions – and the people who carry them – with gratitude, humility, and care.
