"Feet ...
fingers ...
taping toes....
move your bones where the rhythm goes
dance you dreams, love your woes,
discover what your body knows..."
~ John de Kadt

"Creating a revolution of heart"

Mission
​BlessFest is a gathering for all lovers of the earth and of the divine. ​It’s a celebration vehicle for the expansion and evolution of human consciousness through heart centered music, song, kirtan, yoga, dance, embodiment, dharma talks, silence, story, poetry, and education on health, sustainability, and giving back to local communities.
BlessFest encourages us to face challenging aspects of being human with compassion, self inquiry, tolerance, and equanimity. It is a community that joins in ancient and contemporary sacred practices as a means of recalling and remembering the inherent peace that lies within, and sharing that with the world for a revolution of heart.
