Join us on the first Friday of every month for an intimate evening of chanting, connection & community!
Weaving together sacred mantras and healing songs, we invite you to join us on a guided journey of singing together, accompanied by the sounds of guitar and other musical instruments.
Come as you are.
Let down your hair.
Be cosy.
No singing experience necessary.
This kirtan is intended as a meditative, immersive experience to leave you feeling peaceful and uplifted.
We will offer various melodies, but you are welcome to explore your own voice and improvise as you like. It’s fun to follow your curiosity. You are also welcome to simply rest and soak it in, there’s no pressure.
Doors open at 5:30pm for a 6pm start.
Tea & snacks provided.
** Kat & Tilley
Meet your facilitators:
Kat
I am a singer-songwriter, certified yoga instructor, & passionate creative. I have facilitated chanting circles and community gatherings for years, and I deeply believe in the power of music to heal, connect, & ignite us.
My chanting journey began whilst living in a yoga ashram in North India, reciting simple mantras. I fell in love with the feeling of the sounds resonating through my body. Despite long days at the ashram and at times feeling stuck & exhausted, I always found that I felt lighter after chanting, more joyful and clear.
After living in India for six months, I travelled back to Australia and met my teacher and mentor Vicki Roussell. Vicki deepened my appreciation of music, and how sound & breath can support us to come into well-being. I have been practicing vocal techniques & embodied movement with Vicki for over 10 years now, participating in many retreats and ceremonies over that time.
It is my hope & intention that I can guide you back into the remembrance that sound is deeply alive and accessible in your being. And that coming together to sing, we can share our hearts and build a nurturing & loving space for community to thrive.
And Tilley
As a performing artist, Tilley’s mesmerising & transcendent voice invites you to drink deep from the well of feeling, and come up for air with fresh aliveness.
She also works as a passionate vocal & creative coach for singers locally & online, and has been deepening into this work for 12+ years now alongside her own creative career.
Tilley (aka Bec) envisions a world where music and all arts are revered as one of the most effective & beautiful ways to heal & transform.
In both her roles as artist & voice coach, she is a fierce advocate for both the professional arts community, as well as the value of access to creative expression for EVERYONE, no matter their skill level or ambitions.
Singing, sound-making, and rhythm are integral parts of being human, and you don’t need any training or lessons to take part.
Tilley loves working with people who are devoted to nurturing aliveness in themselves, others, and the world.
