I started to teach because I want to serve my community and share the knowledge discovered in my own journey. In the physical aspect I focus on the relationship between strength and flexibility to balance the body, but just as importantly how overall through incorporating all eight-limbs of Yoga it holistically support longevity in outer and inner health. Balancing the physical, sets the body for stillness, silence and creates the preparation for deeper discoveries in more subtle parts, encouraging sensitivity and heightened enjoyment of existence. I hope to help my students to a deeper understanding of their inner Self.

Description

Kirtan is a Sanskrit word that means "narrating, reciting, telling, describing" of an idea or a story. It has roots in Vedic tradition and is usually done in call-and-respond style singing / chanting expressing devotion. This part of the yogic practice is very special, we use music, our voices and vibration to tune with great devotion, compassion, love, purity, joy.

Singing Mantras (chants) are sounds made up of sacred Sanskrit syllables and vibrational sounds, which help us to improve our energy. Listening to mantras and chanting to them will bring us in a positive state and will help raise our inner vibrations. Even modern scientist, through newer studies, realise a correlation between chanting and its therapeutic effects on the body and mind. Chanting creates balance in your body, mind and soul.
