Dances of Universal Peace
to
Gates of Heaven 302 E. Gorham St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
press release: Peace Dances (also known as Sufi Dancing) utilize sacred phrases and simple movements to connect you with your inner spirit. This participatory meditative dance form, originally developed over 40 years ago by an American Sufi mystic, draws inspiration from many different Eastern and Western spiritual traditions, including Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Zoroastrianism, and Islam. All who wish to expand their heart are welcome! No experience required. We take a break half-way through the evening to enjoy some Sufi poetry, or seated meditations.
Dances normally scheduled for the first Friday (Gates of Heaven) and third Friday (Tai Chi Center) of the month; confirm schedule if on or near a holiday. Some summer dance dates are skipped. For more information, visit http://madisonsufis.org. $10 donation suggested. First time free.
