Sacred Yoga Music 2
*
The Yogis have spoken - and were heard!
Sacred music designed by a former teacher for current teachers and
students looking for a powerful tool to enhance their practice.
From the e-Desk of Jay Kruse

Dear Friend,
Have you been looking for music that can actually enhance your yoga
practice?
Are you tired of trying to use songs and sounds that either distract
or simply float around with no direct impact?
Are you a teacher who is constantly searching for something that can
focus and pace your entire group?
Are you ready for something that is designed specifically to help
you by someone who knows exactly what you’re experiencing and
working towards?
Jay Kruse’s Sacred Yoga Music, Vol.1 is only $32. Years in the
making, this collection of audios waited until everything was in place
- from the right melodies and rhythms...to the right mindset and
intention...to the right technology - before emerging to fill a
growing need in the Yoga Community. You could easily spend twice that
online or in stores and still not find anything as unique and
specifically tailored to the needs of today’s modern yoga class. In
fact, Jay Kruse’s Sacred Yoga Music, Vol.1 can give the professional
instructor an edge in an increasingly competitive market by offering a
more satisfying experience to students.
My name is Jay Kruse and I know from years of teaching how difficult
it is to direct a group of people and really harness their collective
energy. I also know from years of experience with Sacred Dance and
Movements from various Sufi traditions just how potent the right music
can be when performed in service towards the group.
In fact, it was my passion for Sacred Music that eventually pulled
me away from a growing career as a yoga instructor and led me to
further my understanding of rhythm, melody and movement. And, after
all I have seen and heard, nothing compares to the power of a focussed
group of people moving and working as One.
For years I have been working on combining ancient mystical music
with modern technology to create music of true value and purpose. As I
began to release works that literally put your brain into healthy,
regenerative wave patterns I was bombarded with requests to produce
something specifically designed to enhance the quality of a
full-length yoga practice.
Drawing on my experience, I have crafted a sonic journey that is not
a half-hour... not forty-five minutes... not an hour... but an hour
and a half of music on handmade flutes and percussion from the
esoteric traditions of the world. That’s ninety straight minutes of
sound that is not for entertainment, amusement or emotional reverie,
but for driving you deeper into a state where your practice is
heightened, supported and lifted to a new level.
My approach was to combine time signatures, intervals and melodic
modes often neglected in the West with familiar rhythms and scales to
address the many phases of a yoga session, including:
*
-OPENING: Going inside; working with the Sun Salutations to center
and prepare the mind for the task at hand
*
-BODY AWARENESS: Using the standing, twisting and bending poses to
anchor awareness in the body
*
-HEAT: Reinforcing the function of Vinyasa to generate heat in the
body and connect the breath with the flow of movement
*
-BALANCE AND CORE STRENGTH: Supporting the inner work of balancing
poses through non-distractive rhythmic accompaniment
*
-TRANSFORMATION: Using the expansion from the heat to further open
the hips and spine during floorwork to encourage deep channel growth
and cleansing
*
-INTEGRATION: Slowly bringing the pace down to a calming and
nourishing state that supports the Body, Mind and Spirit in
assimilating the work accomplished and allowing the benefits to seep
deeper into your awareness while gently concluding the session
The challenge here was to balance the elements of trance and weave a
soundscape that continuously guides you through the shifting dynamics
of your practice. The use of repetition is offset by gradually
moving in and out of various time signatures, creating space for
dialogue between rare and exotic flutes, treating percussion more as a
‘wash’ and using polyphony to cast an introspective spell as you
practice yoga. By the middle of the journey things heat up just
enough to lock into the flow of Vinyasa and provide a backbone for one
of the more difficult phases of a yoga session. The transition from
balancing to floorwork is accompanied by the delicate chimes of steel
string harmonics and a hint of flute before settling in on a groove
that is tailored to be active enough for linking postures without
being overpowering. Finally, drift into a peaceful state of
meditation and assimilation with a modern variation of traditional
drones providing the backdrop for a duet of bamboo flutes.
Finally...a full-length audio accompaniment for your yoga practice!
Introducing:
Sacred Yoga Music, Vol. 1
Just imagine a ‘virtual soundtrack’ that literally follows the
‘ebb and flow’ of your practice - reinforcing the subtle changes
in concentration as your session unfolds...
Everyone wants to hone their practice. We all seek to better our
conditioning and improve our health, but we also look to our ‘yoga
time’ as an opportunity to let go of day-to-day concerns and focus
on ourselves for a set amount of time.
Can you recall the last time you were truly immersed in your yoga?
Free from all distractions and totally present to yourself?
Jay Kruse’s Sacred Yoga Music, Vol.1 enhances your workout by
adding a whole new dimension of sound, support and focus. The more you
use this music as part of your yoga routine, the more you'll notice
the outside world fade away...allowing you to sink deeper into an
expanded awareness grounded in the Present...
“Jay’s new work is serious and purposeful music - it combines
the ultra modern with the ancient to achieve the original spiritual
and healing objective of music...well beyond the mere goal of
entertainment. It is music like this that can help us deal with and
transcend the tension of modern life to help us fulfill our destiny as
perfect human beings in higher planes of existence.”

“I’ve been a player, composer and producer of World music for
over 30 years and after listening to the recent new works of Jay
Kruse, I am truly inspired. In addition, I am confident you will be
moved by his artistry and skill at taking the listener on a truly
worthy aural journey.”

“Having played the Bansuri myself for several years, Jay Kruse is
a constant inspiration for my music. Building on a traditional base,
Jay takes flutes and drums that are perfectly hand-tuned (I own one of
his flutes and can attest to the quality) and uses them as tools to
take your mind on a journey like no other. Kruse is a virtual master
of wind and drum - a teacher, a performer and a revolutionary in his
art. Take the time to treat yourself to the medicinal melodies of
anything of Jay’s you can get ahold of...”
