Are you ready to have a breakthrough with your voice and music? 

How often do your insecurities, fears, judgements and doubts about your voice and playing music hold you back from expressing yourself?  

When I first started playing kirtan, I was surprised by the simplicity of the music and melodies. It got me out of my head and let me relax into the expansiveness of the chants. It was a game changer! Keep the music and melodies simple and let the Spirit fly.   

• Do you want to be more confident in the expression of your voice and music?

• Have you wanted to share simple chants at the beginning or end of your yoga class?

• Do you want to facilitate kirtan with your community?

Bhakti Yoga Practice 

I will be leading integrative devotional yoga practices from the Sattva yoga tradition as taught by Anand Mehrotra. It will be open to all levels. It will include kriyas (elevating movements), asanas (postures), pranayama (breath/energy practices), and dhyana (meditation).  This holistic style of yoga is designed to affect all levels of being which in turn uplifts, heal and awakens the practitioner to elevated states of consciousness.  It is similar to Kundalini Yoga as taught by KRI. I love to add the focus of deities to enhance the embodiment of the bhakti practice.  This will include mantras, kriyas and meditations specifically for each deity.

Testimonial:

“I met Ananda Das a few years back after following his music on Spotify and I thought - wow, this guy can really deliver songs with equal parts authenticity, power and love. Recently, I’ve had the pleasure of mentoring under him and it has helped me open to my authentic voice and craft. As a kirtan musician and singer myself, it has been so important for me to get great teachers on this path and I consider Ananda Das one of those. 

The depth, humor, efficiency and overall joy that he brings is outstanding and I would recommend him to anyone seeking to open their voice, to FIND their voice, to USE their voice, and to experience deeper levels of love for singing and playing devotional songs. “ Grant Ifflander (Yoga Teacher and Kirtan Singer)
