No previous experience needed.... Geeti and Gyan are really excited to be sharing two evenings of Naada yoga in Dec (Tuesdays 7-9pm on 8th and 15th) which will harness the power of sound to settle your nervous system and find a deep connection and peace within. Vocal Toning, Mantra, Movement, Kirtan, Silence and Music will be woven together in this signature class that many previous students have been nourished deeply by. Practising Naada yoga with Geeti & Gyan has opened up so many treasures & is one of my most favourite things to do in my week.

12.01.2022 My dear friends and wonderful soulful musicians Shivam Rath on crystal slide guitar and Saptak Sharma on tabla are returning to Mona Vale, Sydney next week for a special one-off music concert! They are joined by Scott Romain on didge and Grand Master Riley Lee on shakuhachi. The last concert in Sydney when the four met and collaborated for the first time was - I've heard by all accounts - a stunning spontaneous collaborative fusion of ecstatic and meditative raga and world m...usic. Julie Geeti Dayashakti Rogers and I are fortunate to be joining them this time, contributing some raga-based kirtan and original sacred song. Looking forward to voyaging into a sublime musical odyssey with you!
12.01.2022 Really happy to continue the re-emergence after restrictions have eased with a Community Havan & Kirtan event this Saturday. There will be some yummy chai and sweets and connection time afterwards. It will be a sweet opportunity to gather as a community and offer our prayers to those who are in need of healing and support with a havan - a meditative flower ceremony with mantra. Plus there will be a kirtan to celebrate our true nature of peace, love and joy, and let the energi...es continue to flow and heal as they need to. The kirtan is grass roots - an opportunity for members of the community to come forward and offer a kirtan - there still may be one place left for someone to share a kirtan this Saturday. If you're feeling the call, send me a message! Proceeds will go to charity. Hope to see you there! Big love xxx

11.01.2022 Happy New Beginnings! Have just arrived back in Sydney for a few days after some lovely and much needed holiday time with Geeti and my family in Dunedin, New Zealand. Some rain has come, here at least, the frogs were happily chorus croaking last night, and cicada song joined them briefly to help recharge the atmosphere. The adorable rainbow lorikeets on our verandah were screeching for us to keep singing. Last night and this morning, nature seemed to be receiving and pouring... out love from and to humankind, in a more overtly reciprocal way, at least to my perception! I feel there's a lot of potential energy here right now for establishing a New Way of being for 2020 and for the decade! I'm finding I have a lot of energy for cleaning the house, rebooting my whole system, and attending more to my energy hygiene, and that of my home / temple. And above all, BEING the embodiment I want to be - in this moment right now, as a foundation for the future, also. Looking forward to sharing times of transformation and nourishment and upliftment and wisdom with you all in 2020! Blessings of Love and New Ways! xxx with Julie Geeti Dayashakti Rogers Laura Kemp Linda Parry Nadine Parry

11.01.2022 Namaste! The universe has opened up the space for me to teach a few more private music lessons each week! I so love teaching music, so just feeling to put it out there that I’m available to teach flute, voice, harmonium, steel string guitar and piano kirtan, mantras, improvisation, song writing, nada yoga (vocal training and practices, chakras etc), basic music theory or sheet music. Particularly if you’re looking for musical soul nourishment and expression, ease and flow! ...I believe in supporting the student on their own musical journey, which is always completely unique! That’s why I love teaching music! I find it works beautifully to follow, support and guide the student’s own lead and flow, so sessions can be as creative, intuitive or technical as you need... And holding the intention of the sessions to be easeful, enjoyable and creating more harmony in your life! Lessons are available at an apartment space in Darling Point, Edgecliff. Message me or call 0408013341 if this is resonating for you, or for someone else you may know! Om Shanti

10.01.2022 So happy to be offering some more original sacred songs and kirtan this month at The Leela Centre with Julie Geeti Dayashakti Rogers. The event takes place on 19 Dec, just two days before the summer solstice - so it will be a wonderful opportunity to raise our vibration collectively and help prepare energetically for the 'powering up' of the planet and consciousness in these potently transformational times. This event will be a lovingly crafted weaving of mantra, movement, m...editation and sacred music designed to take us on a journey to the Heart, to Oneness and to an inner world of beauty and harmony, in relationship to self, others and the Universe. We look forward to seeing you there! Spaces are limited to 25, so please book soon to secure your spot! Blessings on your week xxx

01.01.2022 This Friday evening is Mahashivaratri - a night of the soul, celebrated throughout India for millennia. For the few years I have known about it and celebrated it myself, it has always been a highlight in my calendar... It's hard to say why or put it into words... Perhaps it's the vibrancy of 'Shiva' (the shiva who is the cosmic 'dancer', dancing creation and transformation into existence), and/or the stillness and silence (the 'shiva' who is 'nishprapanchaya shantaya' - tran...scendent and calm), and also the bliss ('satchidananda'). Saints say it is the night of the year when the 'veil is the thinnest', that is, when unity with God / our true nature is the easiest! In this spirit, as an offering to the divine, to the 'Shiva' within us, I am heading to the wonderful Muktigupteshwar temple at Minto this Friday with a team of bhaktas - Julie Geeti Dayashakti Rogers, Garry Luke, Adam Divyatma, Mahvidya Patricia Bordon, Colin Campbell and Julie Clare Hotchkiss. Come join us, sing, dance and meditate the night through! There will be prasad (food) available, and the temple is open all day. We'll be offering kirtan and songs from 7pm - midnight. There will be a ceremony too in the evening in the inner temple. If you're feeling the call, there are opportunities for seva (service) too at the temple that day. Om namah shivaya! https://www.facebook.com/events/2726321680787994/
