It’s time
If you feel like your kirtan is growing… and you’re ready to nurture it more deeply, this retreat is for you.
Maybe you already play.
Maybe you already lead.
Maybe you feel devotion moving through you - and you want the skills to match what’s in your heart.
Kirtan Evolution is a space to gently, intentionally upgrade your craft.
Not just learning new chants or techniques — but learning how it all fits together.
How to feel steady.
How to feel supported.
How to lead a grounded and authentic kirtan.
We’ll Explore:
Harmonium skills that feel fluid and supportive
Moving beyond the basics. Creating dynamics. Building energy in a way that feels natural and devotional.
Structuring a full Kirtan journey
How to open a space, guide the arc of the chant, shift keys with ease, and land with intention. Learning to think in waves instead of separate songs.
Your Voice
Tone, projection, and stamina — so you can lead without strain and feel confident in your sound.
Leadership
Holding space. Communicating with musicians. Reading the room. Leading in a way that feels true to you.
There will be practice. Encouragement. Real-time feedback. Space to grow at your own pace.
