About Kirtan: Absorb the Sound, Ignite your Soul!
Kirtan is one of the oldest sacred yoga traditions of the world. It is a call-and-response chanting genre. "Say the Mantra, Repeat, Faster, Louder, Be Meaningful." Kirtan helps us connect to ourselves, focus our attention & achieve true harmony between mind, body & spirit. Kirtan is part of the yoga of sound, in which you produce sound waves & follow them with your awareness. Think Ommm! Kirtan can bring about dramatic, positive changes in overall health & wellness.
Kirtan Vancouver is a non-profit organization with the goal of bringing the community together through yoga, music and art by tapping into the world's most ancient sound vibrations and showcasing them in a modern environment.
