Madonna reunited with her ex-husband and director Guy Ritchie to celebrate their son Rocco’s bar mitzvah on Saturday. The coming-of-age celebration took place at The Kabbalah Centre in New York and included a small gathering the previous night. Madonna has been known for her involvement in Kabbalah studies since the 1990s.

The singer posted a photo on her Instagram of Rocco completing the writing of a Torah scroll with the caption, “ 'We finish the last letter of the Torah for Rocco’s Bar Mitzva! Lucky 13! Happy Birthday! Potential ……… responsibility!!!!' -Madonna.”

The festivities continued at Bklyn Beast, New York City’s training facility for Parkour, Capoeira and Dance.
