Join us for a special evening for our 5th Friday dance - Honoring the Pantheon, dances honoring Hindu and Buddhist deities and the Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Our leaders will be Christo, Mariko and Rabia.
This event occurs in Eugene on first, third, and fifth Fridays.
Experience the revitalizing and healing energy of music, spiritual song and movement. This activity has four levels of participation. One can sit and enjoy the activity, sit and sing, sit and sing and participate in seated movement, or participate in group singing and movement. Many of the songs use chants, melodies, or sacred phrases from spiritual traditions around the world including indigenous and earth and nature-based spirituality. Movements are simple circle dance movements. All song and movements are fully taught and range from meditative to lively. The dances are accompanied by musicians and after the dance there is a time for visiting.
Please bring water bottle for personal hydration. Donations requested, though not required for attendance. Your presence is the greatest gift. Masks are optional. Please avoid wearing fragrances as some dancers have sensitivities. Please note that this event is advertised in multiple venues, so the number attending in Meetup does not indicate the number of participants. Diversity of spiritual traditions represented in songs intended to promote appreciation of spiritual traditions different from our own, with the aim of promoting peace, with understanding prevailing over intolerance.
