Alex
Alex Stefani has been playing and appreciating music and sound for over 30 years. He has studied music at the college level, played in a variety of ensembles and has taught music in schools. With a background in jazz, he creates innovative soundscapes, supporting participants' deepened experience. Alex says, he's "Just a being, interests include: perpetually searching for the sonic palette of the universe while promoting the proliferation of kindness through aural communication...and other stuff too."
seva ~ selfless service
Seva is interwoven into the teachings of yoga. It offers us a simple tool to shift from the limiting space of "I, Me, My", into the expansive and heart-centered space of We.
