    YOGA OF VOICE A WORKSHOP SERIES WITH DEEPAK KUMAR PAREEK.


    For the first time at Jivamukti Yoga School, acclaimed musician and singer, Deepak Kumar Pareek will teach the fundamentals of Indian vocal music using the traditional method of "call and response". Members of the class practice singing as a group. Deepak calls his program "Yoga of Voice" referring to pranayama, the fourth limb in the eight limbs of Raja Yoga, or the control of the life force through correct breathing practices. 

    Each class starts by practicing the basic seven notes (swar) of the Indian music scale "sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa". Students then begin to learn the beautiful bhajans (devotional songs) and ghazals (romantic songs often based on Kabir's poetry) that Deepak is so well known for in his performances and on his CD "Enchanted Evening". Deepak has proficiency in harmonium, guitar, tanpura and keyboard and has one of the most beautiful, soulful voices of his generation. No experience is necessary!
