For the first time Benjy and Heather Wertheimer of Shantala willl come to House of Yoga to offer kirtan,

Sacred chanting (kirtan) has its roots in the sacred music of ancient India.
Kirtan is a celebration of spirit through the chanting of sacred names, carrying participants into a state of heightened awareness, bliss, and devotion, through call-and-response chanting, dance, + meditation.
Benjy and Heather Wertheimer have been leading kirtan (sacred chanting) worldwide since 2001 as the duo Shantala. They are known for their gift of bringing participants into a vast and loving experience through their unique blend of exquisite voices with instruments of India and the West. Together they create music with beauty, passion, and reverence.
Heather and Benjy have released five beautiful and well-loved albums of sacred chant music since 2003,
including Living Waters, Jaya, LIVE in love, Sri, and The Love Window.
Shantala has performed and recorded internationally with such sacred music luminaries as Krishna Das, Deva Premal & Miten, and Jai Uttal.
They also have a passionate international online following, with hundreds of thousands of YouTube video views, millions of iTunes/Apple Music downloads, and millions of streams on Spotify.
