Dharma Jam venue- Andover Chapel, Harvard Divinity School

Come join the dance sangha!

Dharma Jams are a practice of mindful movement and sacred dance. Beginning with a collective intention and a seated meditation, Jams progress through three phases aligned with the Buddha (arrival into our bodies with stillness and slow movement), Dharma expanding the range and speed of movement), and Sangha (broadening attention from the individual to the collective dance). Refocusing and inspirational Dharma comments are offered at the beginning of each of these phases. Jams close with a moving dedication of the practice and a seated reflection circle. Most of the movement and dance period is supported by an arcing playlist of recorded music, with attention to fostering a sacred and celebratory soundscape.

Please aim to arrive in time to participate in the opening intentions and meditation, and then stay to get down!
