Shira Yoga at Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion

  • Hebrew Union College 1 W 4th St New York, NY, 10012 United States (map)

Shira Yoga is a new practice that integrates two authentic pathways: yoga and the global Jewish music of Piyut. Piyutim contain some of the most devotional prayers of our tradition and invite contemplation of life in relationship to the universe, the self, and the divine. Awaken the body, heart, and mind through centering movement, live music and guided chanting of devotional music from Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Persia, and other places Jews lived for centuries. This monthly workshop at Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion, led by Rabbi Myriam Klotz and guitarist Dan Nadel, will provide a flexible space to explore the richness of Jewish creativity and spirituality through the body.

 

Shira Yoga workshops are free to HUC-JIR students, faculty and staff.  For the general community, individual classes are $15 (student) / $18 (regular) and the full series is $100 (student) / $125 (regular).
