The ancient practice of kirtan (“KEER-tahn”), or “call-and-response” yogic chanting, is a form of Bhakti, the yoga of devotion, and it produces many of the same benefits as a yoga class or meditation.
Join Beth-Ann Wise in a non-threatening environment to learn about and experience basic kirtan. We will discuss how kirtan evolved and why the practice of chanting has endured for thousands of years. We will share the many health benefits enjoyed when we chant and experience how chanting can complement our other meditation, mindfulness and spiritual yoga practices.
In addition to participating in several call-and-response kirtan style chants with harmonium accompaniment, you will be led through a gentle, heart-opening posture practice and a period of savasana or final relaxation.
After attending this workshop, students will be equipped to comfortably attend any Kirtan chanting event, including regular Kirtan events at Mandala Moon Yoga.
Students of Mandala Moon Yoga can experience this workshop for just two punches on their card. For all others the cost is $20. A portion of the proceeds from this and future Mandala Moon kirtan events will be donated to CancerConnects.
Registration is required. Please register online; or, if you plan to use your MMY punch card, please call 440-9125 or email [email protected] to let us know you're coming.
