The Shakers are a Protestant community officially called The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing.
The name "Shakers," originally pejorative, was derived from the term "Shaking Quakers" and was applied as a mocking description of their rituals of trembling, shouting, dancing, shaking, singing, and speaking in tongues.
