KISHORI &
THE KARTELS

Kishori & The Kartels returns home to The OM Festival for her fourth year with her group Kishori & The Kartels, and we couldn’t be more delighted to welcome this beloved OM’ie back into the mountain magic. Kishori’s presence is a living transmission of joy, devotion, beauty, and deep heart-opening transformation.

Kishori is a spiritual teacher who is a conduit of divine love and a vehicle for Krishna’s grace to heal and awaken. In this lifetime, her medicine is to help beings live radiantly and die gracefully through the practices of Bhakti Yoga, Meditation, Reiki, and End of Life Doula Work.

She approaches both life and work with awareness, aliveness, and compassion. To her, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing another being remember and fall in love with their own true nature. 

As a Bhakti Yogi, teacher & devotee, an integral aspect of her practice is chanting and leading Kirtan in her community in Burlington, VT.

She describes Kirtan as group prayer, and a call out together for divinity to manifest. Kishori teaches weekly yoga asana classes in Vermont, leads international yoga retreats, and offers free Kirtan’s (congregational chanting/mantra meditation) with her Kirtan Band (Kishori & the Kartels).

We are honored to welcome Kelly back once again as an anchor of heart, song, and sacred remembrance at The OM Festival.
