The Practice: A 90-minute journey to your spirit

Move, breathe, and transform in The Practice — a dynamic 90-minute class blending Pilates, Yoga, and Dance led by Barri DeFrancisci to awaken your inner power and align your whole being.

Rooted in mindful movement, this experience strengthens the body, frees the mind, and nourishes the spirit through purposeful flow.

We'll build core stability with Pilates, stretch deeply through yoga, and unlock joy and freedom through dance, all while reconnecting with your most authentic self.

Set to an energizing, soulful soundtrack, The Practice is more than a workout — it’s a ritual of self-discovery, embodiment, and liberation. You’ll leave feeling empowered, grounded, and in tune with your unique rhythm.

Come as you are. Leave more connected.

This is The Practice.

We are the Light: Yoga with Live Music to support the hostages taken by Hamas

We are the Light: Yoga with Live Music to support the hostages taken by Hamas

Hanukkah is a time of hope. We light the menorah for 8 nights as a reminder of our strength, our ability to overcome challenges despite the odds, and our belief that with faith, we will always prevail. This Hanukkah, join me in the mitzvah of lighting our inner most powerful flames, to ignite the world in a strong, passionate, and fierce mission for peace. We use the practice of yoga to spark our fires and bring more light to the world in this time of darkness. We join together to hope and pray for the safe, speedy, and healthy return of all the men, women, and children who have been brutally taken from their homes. And though our voices may seem small, join me in the faith that the Jewish people will continue to survive and thrive with strength, dignity, and steadfast determination, as we have time and time again throughout our history. The time has come again for us to say “Never Again.” May our collective vibrations create the universal shift necessary to give the best Hanukkah gifts to every family this year- that all shall be reunited, and never again know the hardship of separation and loss. That our children grow up in a world that does not know war. And that the world, and ALL beings in it, should only know peace, where all are happy and free 🕎🤍✡️🕊️

Join me for We are the Light: yoga class with live music in support of the hostages taken by Hamas, this Sunday at 10am at Moses Montefiore Anshe Emunah Congration. Live music during practice will be played by my dear brother Adam Kandel and afterwards we will be graced with tunes by Yifaat Gamliel Asher, Larry Amsterdam, and Jeff Snyder. We will flow, sing, and come together in harmony to become the light we wish to see in the world

Date: Sunday, December 10

Time: 10am-11:30am

Address:

Moses Montefiore Anshe Emunah Congregation

7000 Rockland Hills Drive

Cacao Freedom Dance Journey

Discover the healing, joyful combination of inner and outer nature as you move through this soulful journey into your heart. Like the natural ebb and flow of the universe, the inner and outer movements of this evening will bring you deeper into Freedom’s expansion as you drop out of your head and into your heart!

First, Becca Steinbach will guide us through a traditional cacao ceremonial circle, as we welcome all the forces of nature and Spirit, and ground deep into our hearts and down into our personal and collective experience.

Then, Barri DeFrancisci will take you on a movement journey through your main energy centers, from grounding into your center, to awakening your sensuality, and culminating in a blissful state of connection to yourself, your community, and Spirit.

By weaving dance with elements of yoga, breathwork, chanting, meditation, and Grandmother Cacao, you will discover the paradoxical balanced alignment of fluidity and discipline that creates freedom. Opening to the freedom of Self, you’ll raise your own and the collective vibration of the universe!
