NEW! SUMMER SESSION - TUESDAYS @6PM PACIFIC - AUGUST 6, 13, 20, 27 - ONLINE
In this Course, we will study one of Nada Yoga’s primary pathways, North Indian Classical Raga Singing which is foundational to kirtan. You will learn Compositions, Mantras and Kirtans in various Rags. We will work with the breath and long, slow vocal tones in the Nada Yoga Tradition also called the Yoga of Sound. Nada Yoga is a spiritual practice designed to help us reach a state of silence and peace. We will sing exercises, mantras and simple melodies.
By going deeply into the characteristic intervals, embellishments and compositions of a Raga (which is a scale or mode), you will learn mental discipline and connect to the sacredness of your own voice.
