Dave Stringer is an internationally recognized leader of the American kirtan movement.  A faculty member of Vibrant Living Yoga Teacher Training in Bali, Stringer teaches the relationship between chanting and the process of yoga. He studied kirtan in India, and performs and teaches it as a form of japa yoga.

Kirtan is the call-and-response yoga performed in India’s devotional traditions. It has been popularized as devotional singing with various blendings of traditional and western instrumentation and call and response singing in Sanskrit with English. Stringer’ album, Brink, is a fine example of his universal chanting style. I like his music because he conveys great heart through its clean vibration. A refreshing find.

In this video Stringer talks about the healing aspect of chant; he also brings a focus on neurology.
