The Dances of Universal Peace are a spiritual practice in motion. Drawing on sacred phrases, songs, and poetry from many wisdom traditions of the earth, the Dances blend chants, live music, and simple movements into a living experience of unity and peace. We dance to create peace within ourselves, our communities, and the world. No experience is necessary—just an open heart, willing spirit, and respect for the sacred space we create. Join us on Saturday, November 22, 2025 from 10am till 1pm for the dance with a free lunch to follow. Please register by clicking here. A donation in any amount would be appreciated.
