Yoga La Source

The Yoga of Sound & Dhrupad singing

starts Saturday 02 november 2019 at 09:30

This workshop is taught in French.

Dhrupad is the oldest classical genre from the North Indian tradition. In the Dagarvani style, this genre is also perceived as a spiritual journey through sound. This path is called Nāda Yoga and begins with methodic ways for developing subtle perceptions, body feeling, and establishing the basic qualities of voice, resonance, and hearing. 

During these two days, we’ll experience how, even at a beginner level in this tradition, resonating, singing, feeling of joy and transcendence are all blended in with each other.

Each day, we will ‘prepare’ the voice, open the resonance, and establish the presence to the body and feeling of the vibration with simple nada yoga practices. 

Then we’ll learn to sing a traditional musical composition and approach a rāga (Indian musical ‘mode’) and Tāla (cyclic rythm). 

This workshop is open to all without any previous experience in yoga and/or singing.

Style: Nāda Yoga

There is something sacred inside each one of us that vibrates in perfect harmony with the Universe. However, the cacophony of our thoughts prevents us from enjoying this inner harmony. Nāda Yoga teaches us how to rise above this noise, go deeper into our heart and discover the inexhaustible source of inner peace and strength there. Go to the Nāda yoga page.

Teacher: Arnaud Didierjean

Arnaud Didierjean After a formal musical education in piano, Arnaud dedicated himself to experience the path of personal and spiritual evolution through singing. On that journey, he had the joy to follow the teachings of several traditions of sacred singing embodied by great teachers and masters. They generously helped him to experience the relation between sound and consciousness. Among these traditions, his fifteen years of learning Nāda Yoga and Dhrupad has been for him the most profound and clearest path to understand what is a personal and spiritual journey through sound and consciousness.
