Dances of Universal Peace.
These are circle dances using simple folk dance movements. We chant sacred phrases honoring the worlds' many spiritual traditions. We may be singing in Sanskrit, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic, English, Latin, Greek, Russian, Tibetan. Each dance is taught right before we do it. Our intention is to be wholehearted and access our divine selves, in the moment. And to have fun and experience beauty. These dances are moving, wholebody meditation. Some of the dances have frequent partner changes to allow for heart to heart connection.

These dances are the inspiration of Samuel Lewis. He was a student and master of many spiritual disciplines. In the late 60's he was inspired to create "peace through the arts". He created many dances and since his passing, hundreds more have been created. Thes dances are led all over the world. Check www.dancesofuniversalpeace.org to connect with a dance near where you live.
