The Dance of the Vajra is a meditation in movement. The simple, slow and fluid movements relax the body, clear the mind, and relieve the tensions of our daily life. Through dancing we activate and coordinate specific energy points in our body according to an ancient knowledge of channels and chakras.
The Vajra Dance That Benefits Beings is a symbolic dance of the interrelationship of all sentient beings. Up to twelve dancers dance and sing together on a large Mandala of five colors representing the correspondence between the internal dimension of the individual and the outer dimension of the world. The intoned syllables are closely related to the purification and harmonization of our main chakras.
This event is open to everyone who is interested in learning this beautiful and special practice
