KIRTAN 

Ever wondered what Kirtan is?

​

Kirtan is an ecstatic and meditative experience of Bhakti Yoga, involving singing, clapping, dancing and connection. These songs have been sung for millennium by Sages, Sinners, Devotees and Yogis from all over the World.

​

Together as a group, we have a call and response chant, we repeat the mantra over and over many times (sometimes it gets very fast) to invoke and manifest the essence of the particular Deity we are singing to.

Kirtan is for all people Young and old, big and small. No expectations and no inhibitions. Don’t worry what you sound like, just bring your open heart.

​

For thousands of years, the wisdom of Yoga has been passed down orally, through stories and songs.

 

“When we chant we are moving more deeply into ourselves.”

- Krishna Das

​

Keep an eye out online for when the next Kirtan will be as I travel around the Coromandel brining Kirtan to all with support from friends.
