About this Event
In this workshop, we will practice movement exercises and begin learning the art of Sufi whirling.
This is a physical practice that combines body movement and chanting to open the heart and experience the Unity of Love through the human body.
The workshop is open to everyone, regardless of experience level. Come with an open heart, wear comfortable clothing for movement, and bring socks.
Bios: Sufi whirling instructed by Dervish Aziz and Anna Whirling.
Aziz Abbatiello was raised in an American Mevlevi family, beginning his journey on the Sufi mystical path from an early age. He was initiated as a Semazen in 1996 and has performed Sema with several Sufi groups in the United States and abroad.
Anna Whirling, originally from Ukraine, moved to Turkey at the beginning of the war and later came to the United States. Anna has been practicing whirling since childhood and has performed on stage with different groups for over 20 years.
We warmly invite everyone to join us for this unique gathering exploring the world of Sufism.
