What is RHYTHM?
RHYTHM
Reaching Hearts of Youth Through Health and Movement (RHYTHM) is a movement empowerment program that targets the SEL competencies. We teach stress management through mind/body exercises as well as promote the development of social/emotional strength within. Every class includes fun fitness, a built in segment focusing on empowering participants by boosting self-esteem and confidence, and end with a meditative cool down.
While RHYTHM Academy focuses on girls ages 9-15, RHYTHM Jr. focuses on girls ages 5-8. We have now added our inclusive program-RHYTHM Plus. This program is a movement empowerment program for all children and adolescents ages 5-17.
Mission Statement: Our mission is to use dance, sports, and other fitness activities to build confidence, self- awareness, social emotional skills, and boldness in the lives of youth.
