Armenian Dances for Peace and Healing

Benefit with Shakeh Major Tchilingirian and Laura Shannon, for humanitarian relief in Armenia and Artsakh

Sunday, 29. November

Time: 10am - 11.30 am PDT, 1-2.30 pm EDT, 6-7.30 pm UK, 19-20.30 Central Europe, 8-9.30 pm Greece (90 minutes)

 

Dear dancing friends,

Shakeh and I are honoured to offer a second session of Armenian Dances for Peace and Healing. Our first session of dancing for peace in Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) raisd thousands of dollars for humanitarian relief, infrastructure repair, and support for young women and girls. The need for humanitarian help is even greater now. 

We will dance Armenian dances to focus our prayers for all innocents affected by this tragic situation, and to send peace and healing to the entire afflicted region.

Instead of charging a set fee for the class, we would like to invite participants to make a donation either for humanitarian relief and infrastructure repair through armeniafund.org OR to support young girls and women (who are always the worst affected by war) through the wonderful charity House of Hope, mer-hooys.org.

Please do not send us any money directly.

Please register in advance for this meeting at this link:

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

We look forward to seeing you there and to joining our hearts in the power of peace.

With love and blessings in the dance,

Laura and Shakeh
