Dances of Universal Peace

Fort Wayne Dance Collective is the proud host of Dances of Universal Peace. We hold monthly circles, host internationally renowned facilitators, and conduct a yearly weekend that attracts dancers from all over the country.

What are the Dances of Universal Peace?

The movement and songs used in Dances of Universal Peace are drawn from over 400 dances including themes of peace, healing of the Earth, individuals, and the global family, and the celebration of life’s great mysteries. Dancers focus on peace and harmony creating a sense of solidarity and community while celebrating the underlying unity of all the spiritual traditions of the earth.

This is a participatory community dance, and no prior training or experience is necessary. Dances consist of simple dance steps and lyrics, and learning continues during the dance. The end goal is not for public performance, but rather for creating community, peace, joy, and spirituality.
