with Rubaba (Hemant Kapoor) and Preet Singh

Learn more about the healing power of sound inspired by ancient Indian musical ragas that have been used for millennia to support the human experience. 

This workshop focuses on creating an environment that encourages participants to flow into a state of awareness, release, and rest. Among several instruments, facilitators will use the Afghani Rubab (7th century string instrument) and the Dilruba (17th century bowed string instrument).  

 

About Rubaba (Hemant Kapoor)

Rubaba (Hemant Kapoor) has served as a multi-instrumentalist, classically trained musician, and vocalist for the past 30 years. Trained by esteemed South Asian and Western schools of music, Hemant now effectively combines both schools with the aim of bringing listeners into a space of self-awareness, calm, and interconnectedness through music. As a practitioner of the yoga of sound (Naad Yoga), his style inspires call and response, deep meditation, and dancing with joy within vast and intricate soundscapes. 

About Preet Singh

Preet Singh brings over 15 years of experience in adult education, community-engagement, and program management. She is currently a teacher-in-training in the yoga of sound and primarily uses the Dilruba (17th century bowed string instrument) in workshops and small group settings. Her primary aim is to help listeners overcome inhibitions through a meditative practice of humming, singing, and contemplation. In addition to this training, Preet currently serves as a senior project manager in neurology research.
