Description
10-HR SOUK Harmonium & Kirtan Training with Dayal Gauranga and Jessica Stickler:
Learn how to play the harmonium, connect with your voice, tap into the spiritual roots of Kirtan, and gain the confidence to lead kirtan in any setting, including at the beginning or end of an asana practice.
This training will teach you the basics of harmonium, rhythm, and melodies, while also deepening your understanding of Kirtan's spiritual significance. You'll explore mantras, history, and how Kirtan connects you to divine energy, while building the personal qualities needed to share it with others.
Over the weekend, you will get to practice on our harmoniums and you will be able to record the keys of mantras throughout the training.
Whether you’re new to chanting or Kirtan or looking to refine your practice, this weekend intensive will empower you to lead with confidence and authenticity. Everyone is welcome including yoga teachers who want to start or end their classes with a chant.
