Quantum Leap Your Voice, Music and Bhakti Yoga Practice 

"This training was the most joyful, devotional, and safe container I could ever ask for. Ananda Das is not only an incredible talent to learn from, but he is also a gentle teacher. It's no surprise that he has a team of incredible humans assisting him in what I describe as Bhakti Summer Camp. It's intense, it's transformative, and it's SO fun. I was amazed at the amount of growth I experienced in 1 week. And now I'm going to India with him in February for Kirtan Leadership Training! Thank you! Truly life changing."

"I have just completed my second round of Kirtan and Bhakti Yoga Training with Ananda Das and can confirm that this training helps overcome fears, doubts, insecurities of singing, playing music and leading kirtan. It once again exceeded my expectations. The entire package from accommodations, food, Ananda's team of assistants, potent daily yoga classes, voice techniques, harmonium skills sessions, philosophical talks on the deities, to song sharing and nightly kirtan to these divine forms, culminated in an exquisite experience for myself and our group."

"The Kirtan & Bhakti Yoga Training in Sedona with Ananda Das was AMAZING! It's an incredible immersion filled with music, singing, yoga and beautiful connections - and fabulous deity talks, and food! I signed up for this training knowing it was wayyyy out of my comfort zone. Not only am I not a natural singer, but I also have very limited musical background. I am so happy I went! Ananda Das shows up each day with incredible energy and enthusiasm; you can't ask for anyone better to lead kirtan either! WOW, it was beyond what I'd hoped for each evening seeing him sing and play not only the guitar, but the flute so beautifully. I'm still glowing chanting when I wake up, throughout my day, and as I go to bed! I can't recommend this training enough, even for those who are at the very beginning of their journey with voice and playing music. It's a very beautiful and supportive experience! -Teresa Young, Juneau, Alaska"

"This retreat was nothing short of transformational for me. As someone who has been exploring the spiritual side of yoga, I found exactly what I didn’t even know I was looking for.

Our days were spent singing, learning the harmonium, and diving into the deeper teachings of yoga. Every session left me feeling more connected—to myself, to others, and to something much bigger.

Ananda is an extraordinary teacher. He’s deeply knowledgeable, incredibly inspiring, and has a way of making everyone feel seen, welcomed, and at ease. The beautiful community that formed during the retreat is a reflection of who he is.

The accommodations were comfortable, the food was absolutely delicious, and every detail was thoughtfully cared for. But what I’ll remember most is how I felt when I left—with a full heart, a renewed spirit, and a deep sense of gratitude.

I’m so thankful I said yes to this experience. I know it won’t be my last retreat with Ananda."

"The Kirtan training was first class from beginning to end. Masterful facilitation of yoga and musical training, excellent instructors, gorgeous views, tantalizing food. I learned so much, improved my musical skills, have all the tools to further my Kirtan songs and performance and couldn’t be happier. Ananda is so personable and funny and made the experience so special with nightly concerts! So magical "

"If you’re feeling called toward Bhakti, Kirtan, or simply opening your heart, I cannot recommend this training enough.

I arrived in Sedona hoping to deepen my spiritual practice. I left with so much more than I ever imagined.

Ananda Das has created an environment where everyone—whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced musician—feels supported, encouraged, and inspired. His teaching is grounded in humility, wisdom, and genuine love for the practice of Bhakti. He has a remarkable gift for helping people discover that their voice is not about perfection—it’s about devotion.

Throughout the week I learned harmonium, expanded my singing, deepened my meditation and yoga practice, connected with the beautiful stories and symbolism of the deities, and experienced the joy of leading and sharing kirtan with an incredible group of people who quickly felt like family.

The setting in Sedona was magical. Between the red rocks, sacred hikes, refreshing swims in Oak Creek, nourishing food, heartfelt conversations, and nightly chanting, every part of the experience supported growth—not just as a musician, but as a human being.

This training didn’t simply teach me how to play music. It helped me open my heart more fully, trust myself more deeply, and reconnect with a joy that will stay with me long after returning home.

Thank you, Ananda, and everyone who shared this journey. I know this is only the beginning of my Bhakti path, and I will carry this experience with me for years to come. "

"Fantastic experience-- the people, the food, the yoga and all the support to sing and become one with the music. Ananda and his team are professional, encouraging, kind and help people break through self-imposed limitations around singing and into musicianship. I left this training with a harmonium/voice coach and a band of friends to continue to jam with!

This is my second training with Ananda and cannot recommend him enough-- whether you lost your connection to creating music or are brand new and inspired to open your voice -- you will learn and expand with his guidance. I know my voice has! And who knew I'd pick up harmonium at 44?!? So fun! "

"Ananda Das’s Kirtan training in Sedona was quite possibly one of the best weeks of my life. He is the real deal when it comes to a yoga and music teacher. Each yoga class, I was so impressed with his story telling of the deities fused with powerful yogic practices. His vocal lessons are guaranteed to take you to the next level. This training was such a transformative container I hardly know this new version of myself! You will step away with a wide open heart, new friendships, a deeper love of the Divine, and the confidence to bring Kirtan to the people in your life. Prepare to raise your vibration beyond your imagination! "
