OUR STORY

Founded by acclaimed dancer, teacher and choreographer Consuelo Faust in 1979, R&M has demonstrated for over 40 years that it can inspire and bring joy into people’s lives through accessible classes that encourage celebration, exercise, and community. For decades Rhythm & Motion offered classes in an eclectic variety of locations and venues. In 2006, we launched a partnership with ODC School and moved our home base to the beautiful ODC Dance Commons in the heart of San Francisco’s Mission District. We believe that the best people to pass along the power of dance are trained, professional and experienced dancers themselves, and we are committed to providing performing artists, dance instructors and choreographers with steady, part time employment. All R&M teachers draw from a common body of choreography influenced by a variety of dance forms and inspired by popular music from across the globe. Named San Francisco's Best Dance Workout by San Francisco Magazine (2015, 2016, & 2018) and Favorite and Unique Workout by 7x7 Magazine (2020). Balancing the challenge of learning choreography and movement techniques with the dance-floor euphoria of a good party, the (mostly) follow-along class format starts with a well-balanced warm-up and leads to high energy stamina and strength building choreography. The experience is low-pressure, joyful, full-bodied and sweaty. Everyone is welcome!
