Welcome to the official site of New York University Rhythmic Impulse (NYURI). "NYURI" pronounced in Korean as (누리), translates to "The World." As NYURI tries to teach and learn as much of the varieties of Korean culture (e.g. poongmul, minyo, tal-choom), we put our focus on the origins of poongmul ("the farmers dance") and its sister-in-art samulnori, which derived from poongmul and set for modern stage performance standards while sitting down. Our Mission: To continue in education of the performing arts of traditional Korean drums (poongmul) throughout the NYU community and the NYC Metropolitan area. If you have any questions or comments related to this site, please email us.
