Performers

Kirtan leaders Susan Dix and Rick Fortier have been offering public kirtan practice in Duncan BC for over five years. Their love of kirtan began in Costa Rica in 2010, where they were deeply inspired by local kirtan leaders. Through mentorship and encouragement, they began playing harmonium and guitar in 2020 and stepped into leading kirtan themselves. They share the heart-opening practice of devotional chanting through music, mantra, and community. Together they create a welcoming space for connection, reflection, and inner growth. Susan and Rick will be hosting the closing circle at this year's Vancouver Island Yoga Retreat at The Loft Studios in Mill Bay.
