Join Shiv Nam and Connor for a Kirtan experience.
Kirtan is singing and chanting in Sanskrit. We will also be singing medicina songs in English. Kirtan is the practice of bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion, and when we practice, Kirtan, we sing to our divine and the energies of divine that we hold, dear to our own hearts. It is encouraged to sing dance meditate whatever your form of expression is, it’s not wrong so bring your voice open your heart and let’s be one together in this beautiful practice in a very traditional way. All are welcome.’
Shiv Nam, also known as Frank, started playing guitar at the age of 16 to accompany his singing. He went on to start playing live and played in a punk band for 10 years in Regina, Saskatchewan. In 2017 Frank started training in Reiki. He decided he wanted to start teaching yoga and began training at yoga fit and then in 2020 he went to India to study at the Moksha Ashram and Pyramid Yogshala where he received his 50-hour meditation teacher training and 200-hour yoga teacher training. He discovered and fell in love with Kirtan while he was there and decided he wanted to bring its magical essence back with him where he started practicing with his friend in Kelowna. A few years later, he started playing live Kirtans. Frank is a meditation teacher, a Reiki Master, and works doing readings for people using tarot and his intuition. He has been doing readings since 2017 when he went through his major spiritual awakening. When he was in India last in 2024, he was named Shiv Nam by a Baba.
