Our community partner is looking for reliable drivers…

This June, you may find us on a beach, in a park, at a festival, or gathered in community somewhere across the 757 and beyond.

Wherever we are, we’ll be sharing cultural wellness through rhythm, movement, breath, and connection.

The world changes one moment at a time. Make today a good one—on purpose.

Healing doesn’t happen in just one way.

We’re honored to partner with The Empowerment Center to expand access to wellness, peer support, and recovery-focused programming throughout our community.

Through this partnership, The DAY Program brings culturally rooted wellness experiences that include West African drumming, breathwork, yoga, and healing garden activities—creating opportunities for people to connect, regulate, heal, and grow.

Whether it’s a youth drum circle building confidence and self-control, an adult finding stress relief through rhythm, a guided breathing experience, gentle movement, or hands-on healing through nature, our goal is simple:

To meet people where they are and provide pathways to healing that feel authentic, accessible, and empowering.

Two connected forces. One shared mission.

Healing. Empowerment. Community Growth.

Before the performances.
Before the rehearsals.
Before serving others.

You have to take care of the instrument that carries you through it all.

Today, that looked like time at the beach.

For us, cultural wellness isn’t just something we teach. It’s something we practice.

The rhythm of the ocean. The sound of the breath. The space to slow down and reconnect.

This is the heart of The DAY Program.

Breathe. Move. Restore. Repeat.

Soon we’ll be offering pop-up beach experiences around the 757 where we’ll hold space with you and for you through rhythm, breath, movement, and community.

Feel Your Rhythm.
