Sunday12th - Family Practice (for all practitioners)

10am-12.30pm, 5 Florence Street

Meditation & Movement (free movement & asana) from Anna exploring Hridaya or the sacred cave of the heart.

Followed by a special kirtan session from Ema Čulík/Yoga Ema. Kirtan is a sacred call and response devotional chanting practice

. 

About Ema: Ema has been teaching yoga in Glasgow since 2018 and their great love is yoga philosophy - as a means of living well, of exploring new ways of being; of fighting for justice, and falling in love with the world. 

Ema also teaches vinyāsa and yin, and continuing education for yoga teachers. 

Kīrtan lets Ema bring together their musical background, their interest in Sanskrit, their love of storytelling and the joy of Bhakti expressed through sound. 

About the practice: In Kīrtan we chant mantras and the names of the Divine in call-and-response, in harmony, in communal resonance. We’re all making sound together and it’s both intimate and collective as we experience sound both inside and outside the body. Kīrtan is held on the waves of music, but it’s not a performance. It’s a way of connecting, of being a channel. “I sing, yet not I - but God in me.”

Ema weaves stories and philosophical reflections into their kīrtans, to immerse ourselves in the mythology and wisdom teachings of yoga.
