Chapter 1: to the Dances of Universal Peace

The Dances of Universal Peace were created by Samuel Lewis, a Sufi mystic and peace activist. Lewis began teaching the dances in the 1960s as a way to bring people together and promote peace. The dances quickly spread around the world, and today they are danced in over 100 countries.

The Dances of Universal Peace are based on the principles of love, compassion, and understanding. They are designed to help people to connect with each other and with their own inner peace. The dances are also a great way to exercise and have fun.

The Dances of Universal Peace are a simple and easy-to-learn form of dance. The basic steps are the same for all of the dances, and the formations are also relatively simple. This chapter will teach you the basic steps and formations so that you can start leading the dances right away.

The basic steps are the step-close, the grapevine, and the turn. The step-close is a simple step where you step forward with one foot and then close the other foot behind it. The grapevine is a side-to-side step where you step to the side with one foot and then cross the other foot behind it. The turn is a simple turn where you pivot on one foot and turn your body around.

The basic formations are the circle, the line, and the square. The circle is the most common formation, and it is used for most of the dances. The line is also a common formation, and it is used for some of the faster dances. The square is less common, but it is used for some of the more complex dances.
