Kirtan is an ancient form of call-and-response chanting that captures the essence of devotional practice. Rooted in Bhakti yoga, it is:

Musically Driven: Led by our talented Kirtan Band—Susan, Laurie, Jack, Kendra—the event blends traditional mantras with harmonious melodies.

Inclusive: Open to all—no prior singing or chanting experience is necessary.

A Heart-Filled Experience: Beyond simple song, Kirtan is a journey into the depths of the soul, invoking states of devotional bliss and spiritual insight.

Emotional Release: Engage in the powerful vocalization of mantras to release pent-up emotions.

Mindfulness & Presence: The focused act of chanting helps in cultivating mindfulness and enhancing presence.

Community Building: Share in the group energy that amplifies the individual experience.

Enhanced Well-Being: Experience improved mental clarity and emotional balance as a result of these communal devotional practices.

Warm Welcome: Our space opens at 5:30 pm, allowing time for community social time before the Kirtan starts. Participants are welcomed to bring food or drink to offer. Tea will be available to everyone.

Guided Chanting: Our Kirtan Band will lead you through a series of mantras, helping you attune and tune-in to your heart center.

Sacred Atmosphere: The event is held in the peaceful surroundings of Bhakti House Yoga Studio, enhancing your experience.

Duration: This is a 2-hour event, designed to offer ample opportunity to move, dance, sing, meditate, take breaks, do yoga, etc.

In September of 2021 Susan moved to Grand Junction and through a kirtan friend met Jack Byrom. Both started chanting weekly with the very harmonium that their mutual friend had played for decades!

Laurie joined in May 2022 with voice and cello. The trio started chanting 90 minute sequences with the generous invitation from Grand Valley Yoga Fest and Zen Den Yoga.

During May 2023 Kendra brought her djembe drum and all have enjoyed the beat she brings. HeartString Kirtan has supported community events at Bhakti house with love and appreciation.
