Consultant, facilitator and coach
Lives in Drôme, France

Pierre Goirand (known as Djalan in the world of mantras) is one of the pioneers of the Leadership Embodiment approach in France. As a consultant, facilitator, and coach, his transdisciplinary interventions are rooted in an integral perspective. The weaving of body, spirit, and artistic expression into everyday life has always been at the heart of his research. Voice and dance hold a privileged place in both his personal and professional practices.

On the spiritual path, he has studied several Buddhist traditions in depth, notably Vipassana, Theravāda, and Zen, to develop a non-religious and non-sectarian approach to spirituality, including what is now called mindfulness.

In terms of voice, Pierre trained at the Roy Hart Theatre from the mid-1990s, mainly with Jonathan Hart, Noah Pikes, Margaret Pikes, Haim Issacs, Rossignol, Paul Silber, Michèle Laforêt, and Linda Wise. He has taken part in several research groups on improvisation, notably in collaboration with the Paris Conservatoire.

At the crossroads of singing and meditation, the practice of mantras was a turning point in his life. His personal research led him to explore, with great curiosity, various mantra traditions and eventually to compose an original repertoire. Under the name Djalan, he leads mantra singing circles wherever he lives and travels.

For Djalan, singing mantras is a way to connect with ourselves, with others, and with something greater than us
