Abundant Praise Ministry

KEOMI + ABUNDANT PRAISE
An Interfaith Praise Ministry + Artistic Group

Abundant Praise is an interfaith praise ministry and artistic group, embodying praise as a vehicle to gratitude, connection, and divinity through storytelling, artistic expression, and testimony.

Rooted in movement and the healing arts, Abundant Praise creates transformative artistic experiences that invite people to explore gratitude for self, gratitude for others, and gratitude for the present moment.

Through performances, workshops, classes, community gatherings, and personal practices, Abundant Praise brings together movement, music, storytelling, testimony, healing, and artistic expression as pathways for connection, reflection, self-awareness, and joy.

Our work honors the many experiences, stories, and practices people bring into the room while creating space for individual and collective expression.

In 2026, Abundant Praise premiered Praise Is Who I Am — The Journey to Self-Acceptance, an original performance exploring praise, identity, healing, self-acceptance, and artistic expression through movement, storytelling, and testimony.

Abundant Praise is both an artistic practice and a community practice—an invitation to deepen our relationship with gratitude, nurture personal practices of praise, and experience what becomes possible when we gather, create, move, and give thanks together.

You are welcome regardless of your faith, spiritual practice, religious background, or relationship to religion. Abundant Praise Community Circle does not require a shared belief system. We honor the different experiences, traditions, questions, and personal practices people bring into the space.

ALL FAITHS, IDENTITIES, & ARTFORMS WELCOMED


 

Keomi Tarver — Founder & Artistic Director

Keomi Tarver is the Founder and Artistic Director of Abundant Praise. She is an Artistic Holistic Healer, choreographer, multidisciplinary performing artist, educator, and Praise practitioner whose relationship with Praise began at the age of 11.

For more than two decades, Keomi has carried Praise throughout her artistic journey, sharing movement across stages, productions, workshops, classrooms, retreats, and communities throughout the country. At a young age, she recognized the power of embodying movement, emotion, and music in ways that could touch, move, and inspire those around her.

As Keomi’s artistry evolved, so did her relationship with Praise. Her practice expanded alongside her exploration of healing, identity, self-acceptance, gratitude, storytelling, and artistic expression—honoring both where she comes from and who she continues to become.

Through Abundant Praise, Keomi creates abundant spaces for people to move, create, connect, reflect, and express gratitude, with a particular emphasis on gratitude for self—honoring our bodies, stories, creativity, growth, and lives. She encourages personal practices that allow praise, gratitude, healing, and artistic expression to extend beyond a performance or gathering and into everyday life.

Keomi continues to explore the relationship between movement, healing, testimony, gratitude, and artistic expression, creating opportunities for people to experience and express the fullness of who they are.
