Yoga with Tasneem

What I Teach

Hatha Yoga (Asanas)

Proper exercise (Asana) : Enhances the flexibility of the joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. The asanas improve circulation, massage the internal organs and improve organ function.

Pranayamas (Breathing)

Proper breathing (Pranayama) : Connects the body to the solar plexus, which is an enormous reservoir of energy. Deep, conscious breathing boosts our daily energy reserves.

Meditation (Relaxation)

Positive thinking and meditation (Vedanta and Dhyana) : Are the keys to peace of mind. By controlling the movements of the mind, we can eliminate negative thought patterns and experience deep inner peace.
Proper relaxation : If the body and mind are subjected to constant overload, their performance suffers. A few minutes of physical, mental and spiritual relaxation counteract worry and fatigue more effectively than several hours of uneasy sleep.

Mudras (Healing)

Hand Gestures : In the practice of Yoga, you are encouraged to use your body in many ways, but ultimately with the intention of drawing yourself inward. Mudras are powerful tools to accomplish this. The term mudra applies to the use of hand gestures during meditation that carry specific goals of channelling your body’s energy flow. There are more than 100 known mudras that have been developed over the centuries.

Kriyas (Cleansing)

Cleansing Techniques : Kriyas are cleansing techniques in Yoga. There are six purification techniques called Shat Karmas.

Neti – Purification of the nose.

Dhauti – Purification of the esophagus and stomach.

Nauli – Turning of abdominal muscles

Basti and Shanka Prakshalana – Complete cleansing of the intestines.

Kapalbhati Pranayama – Cleansing the frontal sinuses.

Trataka – Concentration on a point or candle flame.

Some of my students...

I am continuously benefitting both physically and mentally from her teachings.
Tasneem is always encouraging and is always looking to extend each client personally to their fullest potential. Her vast knowledge, calming nature, experience and support keeps me happily coming back for more!

Samantha Clark, Melbourne, Australia.

She combines a gentle personal style with a strong belief in my abilities, and often pushes me to conquer fears that would otherwise hold me back. As a consequence I am now able to do things I never would have thought possible. Tasneem is a wonderful yoga teacher who consistently demonstrates expert knowledge and guidance…

Georgia, Australia.

My frequent back pain has disappeared for good! Tasneem’s classes are very flexible; within the same class, people can progress at their own level. I attended her classes through my entire 9 months of my pregnancy where I learned skills that certainly helped me to prepare physically and mentally for the entire birthing process. The breathing techniques I learnt with her saved me during labor!

Pamela Maranta, Entre Rios, Argentina.

Tasneem is the ultimate asset to to any yoga team.
She is extremely knowledgeable with regard to all facets of yoga which include but not limited to moves, poses, muscles, chakras, mudras as well as relaxation and a plethora of breathing exercises

Annette, Australia.

Tasneem is an inspiration and reminds me of the beautiful unlimited power the mind and body has. Her calm and peaceful presence instantly grounds me. Then her strength, energy and focus empowers me & pushes me to better myself from the inside out every session.

Natasha O'Brien, Australia.

Being new to yoga Tasneem took the time to teach me the correct poses and positions and kept challenging me to move forward in my practice. I look forward to every session and feel fantastic afterwards- mentally and physically.

Shannon, Australia.

I am particularly pleased to have her help me to develop more flexibility in my lower back as, over the years, I have seen many other professionals for this particular problem, with little success. During my time with Tasneem, I have attended classes with other yoga teachers, but I always keep coming back to Tasneem, who is kind, encouraging, intuitive, and holistic in her approach.

Alison, Australia.

The pranayama in class has been extremely rejuvenating and energising and relaxing for my mind.
Also, my overall strength, patience and relaxation and calmness has increased greatly.

Heather Sim, Australia.

Tasneem is an extremely knowledgeable and caring yoga teacher. I have longed to be able to do headstand , Tas guided me step by step and before I knew it I was in headstand. I was only able to do this because I had absolute faith and trust in her. Be it hold a headstand or balance in crow, I feel I have grown so much physically and mentally. Thank you! She is a rare find, a gift to her students and to yoga.
