Aleph Kallah 2013 June 30, 2013

Reb Drew will be teaching once again at the Aleph Kallah. The theme of this year's Aleph Kallah is: Kol Echad: Connecting With the Divine, Within & Around Us.

RD will be offering a week-long course entitled: Hebrew Kirtan as I-Thou Encounter: Connecting with God through music, meditation and study. Here is the description:

Hebrew Kirtan — inspired by a form of devotional prayer developed in India — is call-and-response, participatory chant where short, sacred phrases from the Jewish tradition are treated as powerful, universal meditations. Join the ‘Kirtan Rabbi,’ Rabbi Andrew Hahn, for a deep, I-Thou immersion in this cutting-edge practice. Through chant, chi gung meditation, vocal toning (nada yoga) and study, we will learn easy, DIY techniques to CONNECT: Inwardly (to the heart and body); Horizontally (to community); and Vertically (to God). You do not need to know any Hebrew or be a singer to enjoy this workshop. Culminates in a community-wide evening concert.
