Igniting the Flame of the Heart - Experiencing the Enneagram through the Dances of Universal Peace

"Ultimately, the benefit of studying the enneagram comes not from knowing more and more about how one is fixated psychologically, but in following the stirring of the call back to the reality of who we are." ~ Debra Janison
The Enneagram provides a map of consciousness that helps us better understand ourselves and others. We will focus in depth on the Enneagram of the Virtues. The Virtues are the dynamic expression of truth in the world. Work with the Virtues can create a shift from realization to actualization - the capacity to embody and live the Virtues. This work can open the way for the descent of grace and the conversion of our hearts. Through the medium of the Dances of Universal Peace, we move out of the mode of thinking about the Enneagram into experiencing spiritual presence and intelligence directly. These dances are a form of meditation-in-motion, combining simple circle dances with singing of sacred phrases, honoring the unifying core of the world's spiritual traditions.

Dancing the Nine-Pointed Star

Experiencing the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas 

through the Dances of Universal Peace

with N'Shama Stirling, Kibriya Renie Hope, Alia Calendar


The Enneagram provides a map of consciousness to help us better understand ourselves and others. This workshop offers participants an opportunity to experience the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas, which provides a glimpse of reality as it is when not viewed through the lens of our personality.

Through the medium of the Dances of Universal Peace, we move out of the mode of thinking about the Enneagram into experiencing spiritual presence and intelligence directly. These dances are a form of meditation-in-motion,combining simple circle dances with singing of sacred phrases, honoring the unifying core of the world's spiritual traditions.

Dances will be selected to exemplify the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas. Each dance will be selected to invoke the Holy Idea for each point of the Enneagram followed by a brief discussion of the experience.

Turning our attention toward and opening ourselves to be touched by the Holy Ideas is one way to begin the journey to our true self.

Friday 14th September  7.00 - 10.00 pm

Saturday 15th September  9.00 am - 5.00 pm
