He had the honor\nof a private audience and the support of His Holiness the Dalai Lama for his peace efforts in Israel/Palestine. \nHe studied sacred wisdom with Shamans from the Americas\,\nSufi Sheiks from the Middle East & Africa\, and studied with the acclaimed Buddhist teachers Jack Kornfield\, Stan Groff\, Joanna Macy & the late Thich Nhat Hanh. \nGabriel is a lifelong Peace Activist and co-founded the Sulha Peace Project with Palestinian Elias Jabbour and co-led the organization until 2009 . \nGabriel has released four albums – Merkavah\, SpiritIsreal\, Hateva: Skin of God\, and The Human Project.

Every story shared by him was a medicine pill that opened my heart and weaved along with the beautiful melodies from different parts of the world. I reflected for many days after the concert on what I heard – so I can definitely state that it is a very powerful concert: art at its full potential! Nikita Llerena – Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil. \nFrom the first chords\, I was involved in a hypnotizing\, contagious\, and poetic experience to say the least. Gabriel’s PrayerFormance is a blend of tango elegance\, Manu Chao’s energy\, Bob Marley’s activism\, and Jewish essence. His work speaks to everyone’s heart. Guigo Rua – Photographer\, Sao Paolo\, Brazil. \nBUY YOUR TICKETS HERE

SUMMARY:Ride The Rhythm (RtR): Improvised Singing- Vocal Jam
DESCRIPTION:The practice of improvised singing can be an intimate expression of our shared being. Each of us has a voice! We aim to find that voice! \nAre you ready to explore the magic of improvised singing and let your voice resonate freely with the rhythm of your heart? \nIn this singing circle\, we will come together as a smaller community to embrace the power of vocal expression\, creativity\, and unity (Up to 10 participants) Let your voice take flight in a safe and nurturing space where you can improvise\, harmonize\, and simply be YOU through the power of vocal expression. \n📅 Date: Sunday\, December 3rd and December 10th\, 2023 \n⏰ Time: 5:00 PM – 6:45 PM \n🚗 Note: Free street parking is available! \n💸 Ticket Price: $30 \nWe respectfully acknowledge that this event takes place on the traditional\, ancestral\, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam)\, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish)\, and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. \nHow to get your ticket: \nChoose from one of the following options: \n– Reserve your spot with an e-transfer to ridetherhythmdance@gmail.com (No Security question and answer\, auto deposit) \n– Tickets are available on Eventbrite (Fees will apply) \n– Drop in and pay cash (Limited capacity\, please contact us to make sure tickets are available before heading to the venue) \nWhat is Vocal Expression through Improvised Singing Practice? \nThe art and practice of improvised singing can be an intimate expression of our shared being. Each of us has a voice whether we believe we can sing or not\, and that voice isn’t just in our throats – it’s in our entire body. This miracle of breath and vibration- our unique sound – can be released and shared with others through vocal expression. Improvised singing isn’t the same as choir practice or learning songs – those are wonderful too. But singing doesn’t need words and it doesn’t have to be someone’s idea of beautiful. It doesn’t have to be something composed by someone first. To make improv singing come alive all we really have to do is show up together\, listen to each other\, open our mouths and make some noise! The rest is practice\, practice\, practice. Soon the noise becomes something more\, something other. The art and practice of shared vocal expression are almost always fun and sometimes challenging as we learn some basic building blocks and techniques – but with these tools\, we can find new and wonderful ways to express ourselves and create together. \nIf these words are pointing in a direction you’d really like to travel in\, then join this group and let the journey begin!
