Check out this new offering on the lineup for this weekend!
Step into the living tradition of Vedic chanting — a practice that has been passed down for thousands of years through a remarkable oral lineage. This class offers an accessible yet profound introduction for those new to Vedic chant and Sanskrit sounds. Guided by the rhythmic precision and melodic patterns unique to the Veda, you will learn not only how to chant but also why it is done this way. This session will center around a revered deity by the name of Lakṣmī, exploring her mantras, symbolic qualities, and the energies they represent.
Alongside the chanting, you will gain a cultural and philosophical understanding of the Vedas, the art of Sanskrit pronunciation, and the role of mantra in daily life and in the broader yoga tradition. This course will connect sound, meaning, and devotion — offering both a meditative experience and a grounding in ancient Indian wisdom.
This class is open to complete beginners — we’ll explore the sounds of Sanskrit and the energies of Lakṣmī in an accessible and playful way. More seasoned practitioners are also welcome, as we’ll chant both simple mantras and experiment with slightly more intricate ones for the joy of learning.
Class is offered in-person, with the option to attend via Zoom. Class will be recorded for those unable to attend live.
