Yoga of Sound Workshop with live Indian Raga music 

 

Yoga of Sound (Naad Yog) - explores the middle three of the eight limbs of yoga:

- Energy extension through breath, know as Pranayama

- Drawing your senses inwards, known as Pratyahara

- One pointed concentration for meditation, known as Dharana

 

Yoga of Sound is a practice from the intersection of Kriya / Tantra Yoga and North Indian Classical music traditions. Here the mind is renewed by breath & focused by music. Your breath is guided and extended by Indian rhythmic cycles. You vibrate your body using mantras in their proper rhythmic durations. This full absorption in sound guides you to the inner sound, the Anahat Naad,  which ushers a meditative state.

 

Led by Dr. Igor Iwanek - your Andover neighbor, TEDx speaker, India trained Yoga of Sound instructor, classical musician trained both in the Western and Indian traditions. Igor taught this practice for the last 10 years in workshops in the USA, Europe and Asia. Igor currently teaches Western & Indian classical music at Boston University. 

 

 

Please note: 

In this workshop your practice will be accompanied and guided by live music. Igor will play the harmonium. If there are enough participants who sign up early, Igor will bring in a master Indian tabla percussionist for that evening. Therefore, if you are interested, please  sign up early. Thank you!
