Join devotional musician and transformational creative guide, Kavita Kat Macmillan for this special day of practice, exploration and community.  Topics will include everything from starting with the steady drone and relaxed mouth position to creating original chants to share with others.  We will follow the flow of the circle and address what is present for the group.
