SESSION DETAILS
RISING INTO DEVOTION: MORNING BHAKTI SADHANA
Sādhana is a daily devotional yogic practice, traditionally offered in the early morning, to steady the mind and gently turn the heart toward love and remembrance. In this sunrise gathering, we come together for mantra, breathwork, affirmations, chanting, meditation, and prayer—creating a sacred container to invite joy, health, love, purpose, and grace into our hearts and into the deepest corners of our lives. Come begin the day by offering your life back to love.
BHAKTI VINYASA YOGA WITH LIVE MANTRA MUSIC
Come join Govind Das and live musicians on a Bhakti Yoga adventure into a mystic mandala of heart opening kirtan, fresh and fluid vinyasa yoga, breath, devotion, and Bhakti philosophy. This yogic ritual and heart-based journey is designed to compassionately open our bodies, voices, minds and hearts, and help each of us cultivate our own unique and loving relationship with the divine. Come join us for an adventure through the body and into the Heart!
KIRTAN TRAINING (9hrs)
Join Govind Das at Casa Copal for a heart-opening Kirtan Training. Learn to lead kirtan, play harmonium, and dive into Bhakti Yoga philosophy with one of the most beloved voices in devotional chanting.
This kirtan training is designed for anyone who is interested in learning to play the harmonium or leading kirtan. Perfect for people new to the harmonium or kirtan lovers who want to add more songs to their repertoire.
Each session of the training will learn a new kirtan chant from the Bhakti Yoga tradition composed specifically for this time together at Casa Copal.
*Harmonium included
KIRTAN
Join Govind Das in the uplifting and heart opening practice of Kirtan. Kirtan is an ancient bhakti yoga practice using mantra and music as an expression of devotion and prayer. The literal translation of kirtan is "to praise.” Kirtan is described as a "jewel of a spiritual practice" because of its joyful, open-hearted, meditative, and communal feeling. Come sing, dance, and enjoy spiritual community. For the new people to kirtan/chanting, just bring yourself, no special clothes or yoga mat needed.
