*** CANCELED *** Into to Chanting - A Kirtan Workshop

  • Pacific Edge Climbing Gym 104 Bronson Street #12 Santa Cruz, CA, 95062 United States (map)

*** So sorry for any inconvenience, the Intro to Chanting Workshop this Saturday, 4/18 at Pacific Edge has been CANCELED. ***
Please reach out if you’d like to stay in touch about future workshops and events.

Come explore the heart-opening practice of Kirtan with an inspiring evening of chanting mantras, storytelling, and community. In this workshop we’ll discuss chanting, what it is and where it comes from, and the many benefits of chanting mantras. We’ll dive into some of the lore and mythology of Hindu deities and how these stories may manifest in our everyday lives.

Kirtan is not a performance, but a collective group prayer. Together we will use our voices to participate in this uplifting and cathartic experience of chanting mantras. The repetition of these sacred sounds will guide us in cultivating a deep, loving, devotional, gratitude-based, and personal relationship with the divine – everyone relates to the divine in their own way!

Date: Saturday, April 18th
Time: 4:00 - 6:00 pm PST
Location: Pacific Edge Climbing Gym
Investment: $25 for Members / $30 for non-members
