In conjunction with the Australian College of Classical Yoga we hold one day retreats, weekend retreats, week-long retreats and overseas retreats.
These are a great opportunity to explore and deepen your practice on and off the mat, and take time out from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Shakti Power
Sunday 21 April, 2013
7.30 am – 4.30 pm
Did you know that Shiva, the great Being, just has to sit around in the vastness, doing nothing? Unless, that is, he has his Shakti, the female aspect of Universal Being, the grace and creativity which brings the world into actuality. Take some time to get to know and love your goddess side – whether your body happens to be male or female.
The day includes meditation, asana practice, discussion and exercises and is run by Swami Shantananda and Sarasvati (Sally) at Waverley Yoga Studio.
Complimentary breakfast provided. Fee $145.

We are exploring 2 amazing destinations on this very special spiritual pilgrimage.
Week 1
We depart Melbourne very early Sunday January 6 morning and arrive (via Singapore) in Delhi at 10.45am. From Delhi we transfer on a domestic flight to Varanasi.
Holy City of Varanasi
Once settled into our accommodation right by the Ganges, our activities here include walking along the Ghats, visits to silk and clothing shops, temple visits and Arati ceremonies, a sunrise boat trip on the Ganges, a cooking class with a local family, and yoga classes with local yoga teachers. Our program also includes plenty of spare time for shopping etc and daily meditation.
This is India’s most holy city and, with the northern flow of the river Ganga, it is a place for powerful inner experiences.
Week 2
On Sunday January 13 we then fly from Varanasi to Mumbai, where we will be met by our driver to take us to Ganeshpuri, the home of our spiritual lineage.
Ganeshpuri
In Ganeshpuri our pace will be easy and meditative. We will visit the house where Bhagavan Nityananda, the modern founder of our lineage lived, the room where he died, and his Mahasamadhi shrine (the temple where he is buried). We will also visit Gurudev Siddha Peeth the ashram founded by Baba Muktananada, Nityananda’s disciple.
The hot springs where we are staying are said to have special healing properties, and the whole town is infused with shakti, meaning that your meditations and inner experiences are likely to be powerful.
Another aspect of this trip will be the special opportunity to spend intimate time with Swami Shantananda (Mataji), who will lead satsangs and meditations and enliven the yogic teachings with us. A wonderful opportunity, not to be missed!
On Monday January 21 we will transfer to Mumbai airport for our flight home via Singapore, arriving home the evening of Tuesday January 22.
What is included
The tour includes airport transfers, all accommodation, tour escort and private drivers for scheduled trips, all breakfasts and at least one main meal per day, fees for planned activities and filtered water. You will be given a more detailed itinerary and be advised as to other requirements such as insurance, likely expenses, what to bring etc.
Your investment for this life-changing trip
$3200 plus airfare. If you are travelling to India and back with us the airfare at this peak time is $2264. This and $1000 deposit is payable ASAP to secure your place on the flight, with the balance due by November 15, 2012.
