Saturday August 3, 3PM – Opening Your Voice with Ananda Das (Sedona, AZ) at Oaks Crossing Conference Center - Has the magic of kirtan, call and response mantra chanting, captured your heart? After 15 years of doing kirtan, recording mantra albums and touring, I'm ready to offer you a voice opening experience that will completely blossom your relationship to your voice, music abilities and yoga practice. This practice will give you confidence, understanding and inspiration to lead chants in yoga classes, song circles or simply to deepen on your devotional path. It will help you open your voice, bring joy into your life and fill your heart with sweetness. This Voice Opening Practice is designed for people of all levels. Even if you just want to come to sing, come! You'll be amazed at how much you learn and grow to appreciate mantra music, bhakti and your love for life.
Ananda Das - has a passion for sharing his love for devotion (bhakti) and the yogic practices. With over 15 years on the yogic path, he brings a devotional depth to his offerings which imparts a transmission and empowerment for the diety in his classes/workshops.
Ananda had been a dedicated practitioner and teacher of Kundalini Yoga as taught by the Kundalini Research Institute since 2006. In April 2020, life shifted his trajectory and he fell in love with the Sattva Yoga tradition. He completed a 300hr teacher training along with an 18 day, 60 hour course on the Bhagavad Gita just outside Risikesh, India. Both were taught by Anand Mehrotra, a himalayan yogic master who has profoundly inspired him on the yogic path.
In addition to his BA in international and sustainable business, he has a minor in East Asian Religions and studied yogic philosophy at the University of Oregon and the Dharmalaya (2003-2009)
Ananda Das is leading four sessions, Opening Your Voice (as above), Sattva Himalayan Kundalini Yoga: Fearless Heart, Friday August 2, 9AM, Kirtan and Heart Songs Concert, Friday August 2, 7PM, and he is leading the Festival closing's Cacao Ceremony on Sunday, August 4, 1PM.
