Rhythm of Change, (ROC) Om Shanti Belize is a secular, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and implementing activities that bring forth individual, social and environmental changes in our country.  We are proud to be using innovative approaches to peace building including yoga, meditation environmental consciousness and other forms of wellness. ROC Om Shanti, Belize has been engaged in several community outreach activities; attached are a few pictures of some of our recent engagements.

We are about to embark on its first large project, the Belize International Yoga Festival, which will take place on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2016 in Belize City. The festival is designed to bring together yoga and meditation practitioners, aspirants and the general public to enjoy soulful moments of wellness, healing, relaxation and reflection in order to promote more positive interactions that are vitally important for the well-being of our communities and country.

This all day event will include adult and children yoga classes, therapies, wellness information, food and drink. The signature event will be a yoga workshop and a night concert by internationally renowned musical star, MC YOGI whose Hip-hop music not only introduces yoga to mainstream audiences, but also promotes peace, love and harmonious relationships. Through all his concerts MC YOGI, who is also an ambassador for First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” initiative, has demonstrated that he is an excellent electrifying performer.

The Belize International Yoga Festival, ROC’s signature annual fund raising event is the first of its kind in Central America. All indications are that as the first of its kind in Belize, such festival will nurture just what our country needs – positive, clean and an uplifting, fun event to sow the seeds of change against the increasing negative influences.

While we are working hard to make this event a success, we truly cannot do it alone. Confident that you are also committed to see positive social connections and upliftment in our country, we hereby invite you to join us at the first Belize International Yoga Festival.
