Bhava Yoga is the practice of using exquisite, melodious chants to experience the rapture associated with connecting to the Divine. Chanting these ancient words unites the expansiveness of the cosmos with the intimicy of the human body, bringing you a sense of inner freedom, liberation, and profound love.

Shabda Yoga is a 3000-year-old tradition based on Hindu Vedas, considered to be the oldest spritual texts in the world. Shabda Yoga practioners use sacred words called "mantras," or which have been used by yogis over the ages to experience the benefits which flow from opening up higher energies within.

Shakti Yoga introduces you to the Tantric tradition of using sacred sounds to stimulate the flow of the body's subtle energy centers, called "chakras." Balancing your chakras in this way enhances your senses, heightens sensuality, and helps you establish a deep connection to your body and the earth.
