Join ICS for an interactive evening of interfaith chants, sacred movements and live music

Mantras in Motion:  Interfaith Songs and Dances for Peace

Elizabeth Dequine and friends

This event will be a fusion between kirtan singing and dances of universal peace.  The Dances of Universal Peace are simple, meditative, multicultural circle dances using sacred phrases, live music, and simple movements to touch the spiritual essence within ourselves and each other. A transformative spiritual practice, the Dances are rooted in the celebration of all the world's wisdom traditions to inspire harmony and peace. All are welcomed into the circle to hsing and old hands in an embodied prayer for peace and unity for all beings.
