We are thrilled to welcome Heather & Benjy Wertheimer to the Cannon Beach Yoga Festival again this year. They will offer an Optional Workshop: The Path of Kirtan on Saturday, 3/2 from 1:00-3:00pm, $30. And will lead the Kirtan & Community Dance Party on Saturday, 3/2 from 7:30-9:30pm, $20 (this is included in a Full Festival Pass).
Benjy and Heather lead kirtan (sacred chanting) worldwide as the duo Shantala, with soul-stirring vocals, sacred lyrics and exotic instrumentation. The weaving of Benjy's Indian classical singing and instrumentation with Heather's soaring vocals, is freshly original and profoundly moving. Together they create music with beauty, passion, and reverence. Shantala has performed and recorded internationally with such sacred music luminaries as Krishna Das, Deva Premal & Miten, and Jai Uttal. In summer 2008, they were named as one of the top "Wallahs to Watch" by Yoga + Joyful Living. Kirtan is a celebration of spirit through the chanting of sacred names, carrying the audience into a state of heightened awareness, bliss, and devotion. The audience is invited to participate fully through call-and-response chanting, dance, and meditation.
