Improve your memory and focus. – Reduce mental agitation – Increase your breath capacity. – Improve listening and communication skills – Find and refine your own voice – Increase your self confidence. – Strengthen you spiritual connection – Gain an overall sense of well-being!!
Vedic Chanting is yoga, it is concentration, meditation, it is prāṇāyāma, it is jñāna and it is bhakti. It is a commitment to learning something very deep.
I am asked what the Vedas have to do with Yoga. Well, the Vedas contain it, the Vedas are themselves Yoga. That is what this is all about.
That said, you don’t need anything to practice and learn. If you want to know something in you that will surprise you a lot, this will surely interest you. It is not easy, but it is enriching. It is not quick, but it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
Chanting controls and transforms the Prāṇā, it is a feeling of merging with the Universal vibration, and it is rediscovering oneself anew in a practice very little known in the West.
In these classes you will learn how to pronounce Sanskrit, you will learn the correct way to recite some Vedic mantras, such as the popular Gāyatrī, as it was taught in ancient times, unchanged, orally and following the rules of a South Indian lineage.
You don’t need to know how to sing, or how to tune, in Vedic Chanting we only use 3 notes not 7 as in music , this makes it accessible to everyone!
Chanting classes are conducted seated, either on the floor or on a chair. It is important to feel comfortable so that you are able to focus only on the sound. All chants will be taught through a “call and response” methodology, using the aid of chant texts. The basic rules of Chanting, along with general meanings of chants will be explained.
These classes are for you if you want to learn more about mantra practice. If you are a yoga teacher or student and you want to introduce Chanting in your classes or you want to work with mantras in your personal practice

The Healing Voice & Rest with the Harp
2025-10-04 10:30 - 12:00 (Australia/Melbourne) | Bendigo Yoga Festival 2025, All Seasons Resort, Bendigo, VIC, Australia
Join singer, harp therapist and yoga teacher Vasudha Harte in a healing sound journey.
We create our own “sonic tonic” and enjoy exploring the power of our unique voice using the syllables Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Da Ni Sa.
Nada (sound) yogis have used these sounds through the ages to vocalise the notes of a raga.
We will then chant simple yet powerful mantras and healing medicine songs to open our hearts and uplift our spirits (a mini kirtan!)
Meditative chanting can have a calming, reparative affect, helping to focus the mind, expand the breath and create restorative resonance in the body.
Our journey of the therapeutic power of sound concludes with “Rest with the Harp,” a unique opportunity to allow the magical tones of live harp music to help soothe and balance the nervous system and enable the body to deeply rest.
Bring all the props you need in order to be comfortable and warm.
“If you have been to one of Vasudha’s yoga classes you will already know the powerful healing in her voice and the beautiful way she creates peace within the space as well as your body and mind.” Amy Mindful AF Emerald

Multi instrumentalist and vocalist Vasudha Harte is a harp therapist, music therapist, music teacher, sound healing facilitator and yoga teacher who has explored the healing power of yoga, music, sound and silence for over 30 years.

At Tania Alexander Yoga there are only 10 weeks of yoga left for this year!
And… there just happens to be five each of the Yamas and Niyamas, the moral and ethical observances, disciplines and duties of a yogi.

So, each week I will be introducing a different topic to theme our classes around with the intention that you gain greater curiosity, awareness and insight into your own way of being in the world. It is from this place that we each have the capacity to learn, grow, and heal, and become our authentic selves.

This October we will start with the five Yamas:

Ahimsa – non-harm
Satya – truth
Asteya – non-stealing
Brahmacarya – self control
Aparigraha – non-grasping

In November/December we will visit the five Niyamas:

Sauca – cleanliness
Santosha – contentment
Tapas – discipline
Svadhyaya – self-study
Isvara Pranidhana – surrender (to Source)

These 10 weeks will take us all the way to the final Hatha75 class of the year on Saturday 13th December, after which you are very welcome to stay and celebrate with our TAYoga Break Up Picnic!
Beginner yogis will be warmly welcomed!
There’s no need to commit to all 10 weeks and you won’t be locked into any subscriptions.
Come as a casual drop-in, or try a Class Pass and book the days that suit you.
Mats and props are available to borrow at the studio, should you desire.
Free parking is available at both Amrita Yoga and Oakleigh Hall.

The Science of Self-Realisation & Liberation
2025-10-10 09:30 - 12:30 (Australia/Brisbane) | BIYOME Brookfield Retreat, Pacey, Upper Brookfield, Queensland, 4069, Australia
Liberation, a concept deeply rooted in various cultures and religions, refers to the release or freedom from limitations—whether physical, mental, or spiritual. Often associated with self-realisation, enlightenment, and transcendence, liberation in a spiritual context typically means breaking free from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, known as samsara. Achieving this state is frequently pursued through higher-level spiritual practices such as meditation, yoga, and prayer.
Liberation involves transcending the constraints of the ego, allowing individuals to connect with their deeper spiritual essence and experience true freedom. Dr. Lisa Miller’s research on the awakened brain identifies five observable traits shared across religious and spiritual traditions: altruism, love of one’s neighbour as oneself, a sense of oneness, the practice of sacred transcendence, and adherence to a moral code. By consciously cultivating these traits, individuals can strengthen their “muscle of transcendent awareness,” leading to a more profound spiritual experience. Miller’s findings suggest that spirituality and religiosity are innate and heritable traits that can be nurtured through environmental influences over a person’s lifetime.
Join us as we explore the science of self-realisation and liberation, delving into practices that elevate consciousness and connect us with the profound truth of our spiritual nature through meditation and mindful awareness.

Mudras for Slowing Down Time
2025-10-12 16:30 - 17:30 (Australia/Sydney) | 100% online, Davidson, NSW, 2085, Australia
“…no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.”

Join me for a FREE online event (Zoom) on Sunday 12, October at 4:30pm (AEDT, Sydney) where we will be exploring the theme of ‘Mudras for Slowing Down Time’. We’ll share a real experience of sacred space within as we step free of the matrix.

The reason for running this workshop emerged out of a recent ‘wondering’: why does it seem that time is speeding up? This year has flown by, soon it will be 2026! How can I slow things down, bend and extend time, and allow myself to enter more fully into this gift of life.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Just like Neo in The Matrix, you’ll discover how to step outside the boundaries of time and space. In this sacred hour together, we’ll explore the power of Mudras, breath practices, and energy work to help you enter that deep sense of timelessness – where everything begins to slow and you can view life from a completely new perspective.

WORKSHOP BENEFITS:

Step out of life’s frantic pace
Calm your nervous system
Access heart wisdom and intuition
Release worries and concerns
Gain a fresh perspective on life
Activate subtle body energies

YOU’LL LEARN:

What Mudras are and how they can help you
How to enhance spiritual growth and access healing energy
Daily Mudra practices
A powerful breath technique
A transformative Mudra meditation for slowing down
How to easily enter an inner ‘flow’ state

We will also explore the specific hand position – yes, a Mudra – that Neo unconsciously used to access a state of flowing presence, grounded in intuition.

Let’s step free of the matrix together and gain simple wisdom to help us live a more soulful and soul-aligned life.

Breathwork - A Journey into the Superconsciousness States
2025-10-17 09:30 - 12:30 (Australia/Brisbane) | BIYOME Brookfield Retreat, Pacey, Upper Brookfield, Queensland, 4069, Australia
Join Senior Yoga Teacher, Celia Roberts BSc and Breathworker Alisa Craig for this special opportunity for you to explore your own states of consciousness at our Friday meditation retreat. These elevated states of awareness, often referred to as “superconsciousness,” have been mapped out in both yogic and Buddhist traditions, called the Samadhi states and the Jhanas. Now, thanks to modern research, we also have scientific evidence that sheds light on what happens to the mind and body as we engage in rhythmic and somatic breathing practices.
We’ll begin the day with Compassion-Focused Therapy exercises, helping to ground and embody a sense of safety before moving into deeper states of awareness. This will set the foundation for your nervous system to gently transition into altered states of consciousness. Afterward we will engage in a holotropic style of Breathwork practice for up to an hour. This style of breathing allows our nervous system and psyche to expand into a more open state of consciousness, in that state it provides the opportunity to rewire, repattern and recalibrate to become “whole”. Following the breathing will be a longer integration and reflection period – allowing those sacred “aha” moments to arise.
Participants will have the option to explore either open-mouthed holotropic breathwork, which can evoke powerful shifts, or a gentler, closed-mouth breathing technique that may offer a more expansive experience for some. This will be a gentle day of nurture and holding.
Celia Roberts will gently and safely guide you through yogic practices using the three essential tools that have been used throughout the ages to expand states of consciousness: breath, body, and mind. These foundational elements of yoga will be integrated to help you access deeper levels of awareness, facilitating self-realisation.
Alisa Craig, with her fine mastery of breath, will invite you to use your breath medicinally for healing. Celia and Alisa both invite you to use your breath to enter expansive states of consciousness where the thoughts can dissipate, the default mode network switches off and one can enter into what the yogis call the Samadhi states. These states reveal the absolute truth to the seer.

Come and enjoy an afternoon (or maybe a weekend) in Torquay. Let me guide you in a peaceful and relaxing 90 minutes on Saturday 18th October 2025.

We begin with a guided meditation to relax the body and settle the mind, followed by the soothing sounds of Tibetan and crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes and drums. As the sounds wash over you, feel yourself being transported to a place of deep stillness and rest. This meditative sound experience is a respite from the stress of day to day life, creating space and deeply nourishing mind, body and spirit.
