and Marcy Garms


Instructor/Facilitator:

Pastor Lynn M Hayden (click here for bio)

With nearly 60 years of dance experience behind her, Lynn has dedicated all her ballet, modern, jazz, and choreography technique to the Lord for His glory. She has performed with the Towson State University Dance Company, and the Ballet Theatre of Annapolis and and has been ministering, for the Lord, through dance, since 1986. Lynn is a well-known author of eight books on worship and prophetic dance, and producer of over thirty worship dance videos and administrates a successful on line ministry dance school, and on demand courses. Lynn assisted the choreographer and danced in Integrity Hosanna’s music video “Sing Out” with Ron Kenoly; and has traveled, teaching Dancing For Him Conferences for over 25 years. As founder, director and administrator for the Dancing For Him ONLINE SCHOOL, Lynn is a gifted leader of leaders. Her graduates have grown substantially in their call to dance for the Lord. Many people mentored by Lynn, over the years, have successfully gone on to have their own dance teams, hold their own workshops, choreograph beautiful ministry dances and even write their own books. The school has enabled Lynn to perpetuate her legacy of transforming hearts and changing lives, through ministry dance. Many lives have been touched and changed by this unique, ministry. It is much more then just learning how to dance. Lynn utilizes the prophetic arts as a means by which to minister the heart of God with an anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage, heals and delivers!

Here is a re-cap video from one of the most recent Dancing For Him conferences.

    CONCERT

    The evening concert is always a highlight of a conference. It is where you get to present a dance that you will have already done at your church (or have been working on) and share your gift with the other participants. The concert is free (possibly free will offering received) and open to family and friends.

    Space for participation in the evening concert is limited to the first 12 individuals, groups, or teams who desire to be in it and are all fully registered. Please try to keep the song around 6 minutes or less. Thank you. When the concert is full, it will be posted at the top of this page.

    HEALTH PRECAUTIONS

    Pastor Lynn has had two kidney transplants and is greatly immunosuppressed. She has very little immune system to fight off any illnesses. While she has been immunized against flu and covid, she is still susceptible. While she would love to hug and/or shake hands with everyone, please understand that this could cause her to be hospitalized (should you be sick or pre-sick). Rather, please try to keep about 6 foot distance. Thank you for understanding.

    For your own well being...

    Face masks are recommended, but not required. 

    Please bring your own personal hand sanitizer. 

    Wash your hands frequently.

    If you are sick, we can not ask you to stay home because there are absolutely no refunds, no matter what the reason. However, please keep a great distance between you and others (at least 6 feet). Thank you.

    RESOURCES

    BOOKS, VIDEOS, FLAGS, AND MORE...

    Many of the DFH products (flags, billows, veils, books, Tshirts, some DVDs) will be available for sale during special times at the conference, at "lower-then-bookstore conference prices." You'll want to take advantage of the opportunity. 

    Meanwhile, you may go here to explore what is available.

    DIGITAL PRODUCTS

    Some time before the event, you will be given a special link to a page that will also show many more digital products (E-books and Digital Video Downloads) that may be purchased at a deep discount up through the end of the conference. 

    Meanwhile, you may go here for videos and here for books to explore what is available.

    T-SHIRTS

    You will be given opportunity during check out to pre-purchase a DFH T-shirt. If you do, it will be waiting for you at the registration table.  Because of the limited weight for check in luggage, there will be only a small selection of T-shirts available for sale at the conference. It would be best to order during check out, so you will have it to wear during the conference.

    Meanwhile, you may go here to explore what could be available.

    We can not guarantee color preference. Make a color family "suggestion" and we will come as close to it as possible.
