Welcome spring with a kirtan!

Spring is a wonderful time for new beginnings: as the earth thaws and reawakens, it is a great opportunity to shed old skins and make room for something fresh. Clean out the proverbial closet by joining us for a kirtan at 3-1200 Portage Ave, on Friday April 22nd (7:00-8:45 pm, $25). This is where we recorded our first live kirtan album (download it here!), so we are excited to be back in this space again. There is free parking on the street, and if you like, you can pre-register with Bahram (our lovely host). Hope to see you there!

Ayurvedic Cleanse!

Spring is just around the corner – and with a change in seasons, it is an ideal time to inspire change in one’s body and mind. Join Adrienne for an Ayurvedic Diet Cleanse workshop (Sunday April 3rd, 3-5 pm, $50, Yoga Public) and learn about Ayurveda, a 5000-year-old tradition of healing. Learn how to:

– apply the fundamental principles of Ayurveda through a 12-day cleanse,
– discover diet and lifestyle practices suitable for your unique physical and mental needs,
– cultivate deeper self-awareness and harmony, and
– detoxify the body, refresh the mind and reawaken the spirit!

During the cleanse, Adrienne will host a blog for practitioners to receive daily updates of recipes, philosophy and encouragement. No previous knowledge of Ayurveda is required to participate. Register at Yoga Public (280 Fort St, 204 947 9642, www.yogapublic.com).

Our next kirtan is at Soul Survivors!

Our lovely friends Eric and Rachel are hosting our next kirtan on Sunday, February 28th (6-8 pm, $20) in their tattoo and piercing studio, Soul Survivors! They have a very unique and quirky space that we are really looking forward to filling with the sound of chanting and music. The space is small, so a limited amount of tickets are available. Please contact Adrienne to get yours before they run out!

No chanting experience, tattoos, or piercings are necessary to attend. Soul Survivors is located in Osborne Village, at 118-B Osborne St. Free street parking is available in the surrounding area. We hope to see you there!

A new live album!

Check it out! We have another album, here: www.adrienneshum.bandcamp.com

It is a live recording of our kirtan in December, in celebration of the winter solstice. Give it a download, and chant along! Thank you for your support – we hope you enjoy it!
