Navjit Kaur is the founder and director of the award-winning Yoga & Tea Studio she opened in Ottawa's Carp Village in 2008. Born in India, but having lived her whole life in Canada, her study and practice of yoga for over 20 years has allowed her to embrace the wisdom that both the East and West offer to the practice. As a mom, wife, Professional Engineer, and entrepreneur, Navjit Kaur knows how life can get busy and so she enjoys sharing ancient yoga philosophy and techniques in her classes and relating them to modern day issues such as stress, health and relationships. Navjit Kaur has been teaching since 2005, and currently trains those interested in certifying to become yoga teachers themselves. Her approach to teaching yoga is to make classes accessible for everyone, and to provide an opportunity for each person to be challenged in their own way, to heal and to excel.

Experience the unique healing of gong and mantra!

This class begins with gentle yoga warm ups and breath exercises, then setting an intention as you relax lying down. While you're relaxing, you will be immersed in the sound of the Gong as it's being played live for 30 minutes! Seal the effects with a special closing meditation with mantra, to explore our collective sound to heal and project good vibrations!

The Gong is a healing instrument with the ability to generate complex combination tones which provides the listener with an otherworldly plane of experience. Within 90 seconds, your mind has no choice but to surrender to the sound and quickly allows you to completely relax very deeply -- resulting in a spontaneous state of meditation and healing. This is the ultimate reset button!

The gong is a yoga teacher's therapeutic instrument for balancing the nervous system, moving prana through the body, stimulating circulation, releasing tension and blocks and opening all the chakras. All you have to do is listen to let go and let Gong!
