Dancing the 8 Limbs

This workshop will show how the classical North Indian dance form of Kathak, aside from being aesthetically beautiful, can be a deeply spiritual practice that incorporates the 8 limbs (angas) of Patanjali's yoga

Traveling from Hindu temples to Mughal courts, Kathak's rich history contains elements that are both Persian & Indian, sacred & secular, performative yet deeply devotional. Through its refined techniques, it provides an embodied spiritual practice that teaches us to dance simultaneously on the inner stage of the heart, even as we dance the outer stages of our daily lives.

Allow yourself to be transported into a state of deep inner peace and relaxation, as the stress and tensions of this world are cleared and released.

In this guided sound journey you will be invited to rest in savasana (lying down on your back) as the sound waves of alchemy crystal singing bowls, rattles, and chimes wash over and through you. Working with the laws of resonance and entrainment, you will have the opportunity to experience firsthand how the sound of alchemy crystal singing bowls can calm your heart, soothe your nervous system, and align your brainwave patterns to bring forth greater states of peace, focus, joy, and self-mastery.

Come away feeling a renewed sense of serenity, purpose, balance, vision, and well-being.

Deva will share a brief history of sound healing and an introduction to the magical world of Crystal Tones Alchemy Singing Bowls

Everything in the universe - from subatomic particles to the largest planet - is constantly moving, vibrating. We are no exception. And, like an exquisite musical instrument, when we are “out of tune,” the music of our life is not harmonious. Kalden draws on his traditional Tibetan background, using chanting and a variety of musical instruments, to help you regain your ideal vibration, leading to a more balanced state - physically, mentally, and emotionally.
