SING YOUR HEART OUT KIRTAN
Activate the chemistry of inner bliss with Julia Berkeley and Matthew Hufschmidt in a celebratory Kirtan at Move Sanctuary.
Kirtan is a call and response chanting practice that moves the heart towards an experience of inner silence, boundless love, and intimate union with the Divine.
Whether it’s your first time or you’ve been doing it forever come and enjoy the regenerative power of mantra and sacred sound in the valley of the moon.
