The Song and Dance of Dzamling Gar
Online with Adriana Dal Borgo and local instructors onsite
February 20th - March 13th
Dear friends,
We are happy to invite you to an upcoming online course on Dzamling Gar Song & Dance!
The song Dzamling Gar was composed by Chögyal Namkhai Norbu in 2012. It expresses in a poetic way the principles of the Dzogchen Teaching and shows us how understanding and applying them in daily life is a gateway to evolution and peace in the whole world.
Steps, movements and the choreography of the dance harmoniously accompany the words and are as well symbolically expressing its essential meaning. (Read more)
With Adriana Dal Borgo we will discover the history of the song and dance creation and learn the steps and movements. Local instructors in various countries will help to learn the steps onsite (detailed information will follow).
The course will start on February 20, and continue on every Thursday until March 13, at 6:00 PM CET.

Khaita Practice Meeting at Gyamtsholing, Venice
Gyamtsholing, Venice
October 26–27, 2024
Taste of a rich Khaita weekend in Venice: a warm and joyful gathering of new and senior teachers and other practitioners who love the Joyful Dances.
We reviewed some slightly more complex but beautiful dances that we worked on a lot in the past with Rinpoche. The Master’s presence and light accompanied us during the weekend, like a warm and bright caress on our hearts.
The meeting was interspersed with enjoyable moments strolling around the city, in pizzerias and local ‘bacari,’ accompanied by our native guides.

The supervision and exam for the students of the first cycle of Khaita Educational Program took place on April 17–19 in Dzamling Gar, Tenerife.
Examinees explained simple and complex dances, shared their understanding of Khaita principles, knowledge of its history, goals and other aspects, and explained the basic Khaita movements.
The final task was to study and perform together a dance with complex choreography, Tashi Thogang Nyiwod (བཀྲ་ཤིས་མཐོ་སྒང་ཉི་འོད།, Auspicious Highland Sunshine), which was especially challenging due to the students living in different countries. We performed the dance on the graduation ceremony.
Newly graduated instructors Eva Leick and Martina Krejčová share sharing their impressions and a story of intensive preparation and successful passing of the exam in The Mirror article.
