Ralph & Vitalija Nimmann, promoting the Dances of Universal Peace (DUP)
- Berlin - Cambridge - Latvia - London - Norwich - Oxford -

The Dances of Universal Peace are a spiritual practice:
all chakras get involved or even activated.
A deep, soulful sense of joy may be felt.
Tears may flow, when the soul begins to remember it's deep longing...

The dances can be a bridge to awakening, connecting with the Divine.
Your voice may open up and your breathing can become deeper and free.
All sorts of things may happen during or after the dancing, often on a subtle level.
We usually hug each other. These hugs can be very healing and comforting..."

Peace Dancing with Ralph at Loudwater Farm, London-Rickmansworth, July 2009

Praise of the Dance I praise the dance, for it frees people from the heaviness of matter and binds the isolated to community. I praise the dance, which demands everything: health and a clear spirit and a buoyant soul. Dance is a transformation of space, of time, of people, who are in constant danger of becoming all brain, will, or feeling. Dancing demands a whole person, one who is firmly anchored in the center of his life, who is not obsessed by lust for people and things and the demon of isolation in his own ego. Dancing demands a freed person, one who vibrates with the equipoise of all his powers. I praise the dance. Oh man, learn to dance, or else the angels in heaven will not know what to do with you. Saint Aurelius Augustinus (A.D. 354 ... 430) To be fair: the authenticity of the above poem is disputed. All but the last bold line have probably been added later by others in Saint Augustine's name.

"One of the reasons I am teaching this music and dance is to increase joy,
not awe towards another person, but bliss in our own self.
This is finding God within, through experience."
(Samuel Lewis, founder of the Dances of Universal Peace)
