Spiritual practice brings us face to face with Life and Truth, prior to the concepts and beliefs of the person, opening to our true nature - authentic, unguarded, beyond form and imbued with the spaciousness and love that connects all.

The Dances of Universal Peace and Walking Concentrations are spiritual practice in motion. Drawing on the sacred phrases, scripture, and poetry of the many spiritual traditions of the earth, the Dances blend chant, live music and evocative movement into a living experience of unity, peace and integration. This taste of our true nature - as Universal Peace - opens to the possibility of a deep spiritual revolution within the person.

This website links the worldwide movement of participants in the Dances and provides information, guidance, resources and inspiration for all who aspire to take up the art and spiritual practice of leading them.

DUPIN Small Grants Program

Grant Cycle Begins June 14, 2021

Grant applications must be received by August 21, 2021

With a generous gift from the Oneness Project, Dances of Universal Peace International (DUP IN) is happy to launch a small grants program.
For what?
The program will award grants of up to $500 USD for projects that support the transmission of the Dances of Universal Peace.
For whom?
Applications will be accepted from the organizers of events and activities that promote the Dances of Universal Peace, and are members of the Leaders Guild.

Our goals
Grants will be awarded to projects that meet the following criteria:

• Promote the transmission of the Dances of Universal Peace
• Support trainings, events, camps, retreats and other activities that increase participation in the Dances of Universal Peace
• Pertain to the costs of an event/project, not the expenses of an individual

Priority will be given to grant applications for projects that 

• are keeping the Dances alive online during the pandemic (for example through the use of Zoom)
• are in countries/regions where the pandemic has abated and in-person gatherings are legally allowed
• contribute to DUP projects that aim to be self-sustaining beyond an initial event or meeting

Details available shortly
