Join Ann-Marie Friday night for a evening of music, chanting, and yoga philosophy stories. Kirtans bring people together through the universal language of music.

A kirtan is a form of devotional singing or chanting, often accompanied by musical instruments like the harmonium.

The essence of kirtan lies in its call-and-response structure, where a lead singer chants a line, and the congregation responds, creating a rhythmic and melodic flow. The atmosphere is typically joyous and meditative, encouraging participants to connect spiritually and emotionally.

Kirtans are not just musical performances; they're spiritual practices aimed at creating a sense of unity and uplifting the soul.

If you've ever experienced a kirtan, you'll know it’s a beautiful blend of melody, devotion, and community spirit.

You can enjoy the Kirtan sitting, laying down, or even dancing. No signing and chanting required:) You can simply sit back, listen, and enjoy the higher vibrations we are rising through Kirtan.

Wear something comfortable.

Enjoy the Kirtan with your Class Pass or $20/drop in. Sign up on the mind body app.
