Common Questions

FAQs

Kirtan is a participatory call-and-response chanting practice from the bhakti yoga tradition. No experience is necessary—Anthony will lead the melodies and rhythms, and you simply join in at your own pace. Many find it accessible and deeply meditative, whether you can carry a tune or not.

Wear comfortable, casual clothing you can sit in for an extended period. Consider bringing a yoga mat or cushion if you prefer extra support while seated. A water bottle is always helpful, and many practitioners appreciate having a shawl or blanket for warmth and grounding.

Kirtan sessions typically run 60–90 minutes, though exact duration may vary. Anthony will guide you through several rounds of chanting, often building in intensity and devotional energy. Plan for time to settle in and transition afterward.

Kirtan is a devotional practice with roots in Hindu and yoga traditions, but it is inclusive and welcoming to people of all backgrounds and beliefs. You can engage with it as a spiritual practice, a musical experience, or simply as a community meditation—whatever resonates with you.
