KIRTAN

THE POWER OF MANTRA

With APARNA & FRIENDS

Saturday November 10th, 6 - 8pm, $15 at the door

Based in one of the most ancient sacred music traditions Kirtan is call-and-response chanting performed in India's bhakti (devotional) path of yoga.

Collective chanting of Sanskrit mantras, bhajans and chants  raises the consciousness, unites hearts across all cultures, removes barriers and creates peace both within ourselves and on Earth.

As much music as magic, chants create sacred vibrations which uplift the listener and charge atmosphere with positive energy. These Sanskrit chants are said to be filled with power, and each is said, has its own unique and positive effect. From opening the mind & the heart, to lifting the spirits these sacred songs will bliss you out.

'When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.'

- Rumi

Born & raised in India, Aparna has been singing Kirtan all her life. She sings and plays both traditional chants from India as well as her own compositions in various languages. Between each chant she enjoys sharing mystical poetry from the sacred voices of the East & the West.

Yang Flows with ROBERTA

In this hour-long, monthly class you will learn and practice Yang flows such as Warrior Advances/Retreats, Golden Seed, and Flying Dragon originally developed within the Daoist/Yin Yoga traditions. Roberta also teaches original flows that have been enjoyed by students in her Yin Yang Fusion class at Yogasaar. These flows range from very simple short sequences to longer, stronger flows that can be combined and repeated to achieve a quality of meditation-in-motion and the ability to move with grace, stamina, balance, and mental focus.

If you already practice a Vinyasa style of yoga, these flows will feel familiar, but there is less emphasis on specific muscular cues and alignments and more on the unblocking and harnessing of “chi” energy. As such, these flows have a softer, graceful Tai Chi quality that serve as a great complement to your regular yoga classroom and home practices. All skill levels are welcome and encouraged to join the flow!
