Dance Leader Training Weekend in New Zealand

You are warmly invited to the upcoming Leader’s Gathering at Tauhara May 9-11 2025

This time we will be joined by two leaders from the UK who will be offering practices and Dances to develop magnetism and transmission. Jilani and Salik are both musicians and there will be at least one session for musicians. 

Jilani says “I feel that any worthwhile dance leader training is really about training the self, to be more able to shine freely, with the light of the Original Blessing unencumbered by the veils and impressions of our human experience. We will focus on practices that develop magnetism and transmission – opening to being a clear channel for the light. When I work with Tassawuri and the Ancestors of the Dances it’s to that end – to develop our awareness of the illuminated souls who are in our lineage, so we can learn to think, feel and act as they would. So this work is really for anyone who is interested in developing their capacity to be really present, and to recognise all circumstances as our teachers, all faces as the Face of God. Naturally this development of the small self makes us better dance leaders, but also better teachers, parents, children, leaders in any field, and more fulfilled and happy humans.’ 

The weekend is subsidised and hosted by DUPANZ with the intention of supporting and encouraging Dance leaders and growing vibrancy in our community through our leaders.  

All those who have ever walked the path of leadership or would like to in the future are welcome, along with those who are committed as musicians for the Dances of Universal Peace.  

We are very blessed to have this opportunity, and to be able to meet and enjoy our connections and the beauty of Tauhara.
