It feels like a joy and a privilege to attend Tamara Yoga in Claremont as both a student and teacher trainee. As a student (attending regular classes) and trainee at TY, I learn about the philosophy of yoga and the proper technique to look after and strengthen my practice in a way that is both personally rewarding and professionally interesting in my work as a psychologist. The space is lovely. I always look forward to classes and lectures at the studio.

I did yoga in my twenties, had three children in my thirties and returned to yoga in my forties, all the while gaining a medical degree and going on to sub specialise in Anaesthesia. I now work full-time in a pressured hospital environment. The benefits of yoga seem so much more precious to me now, it may be due to the busyness of life and the appreciation of good health. I’m grateful to regain the strength and flexibility I had taken for granted in my twenties. Spending the time just twice a week at yoga sees the de-stressor benefits flowing into my work life. The various patterns of yoga breathing provide physiological benefits of calming the body and the physical strength of holding yoga positions gives me confidence in my own strength. I now envisage myself practicing yoga for the rest of my lifetime.

Tamara and her amazing team of teachers have helped me understand yoga in a whole new way. It’s not just been the physical practice that has me feeling more alive than ever, it has also been Tamara’s gift in making yogic philosophy so accessible to me that has given me a deeper sense of freedom and joy. I am grateful every day for that.

Tamara Yoga makes you feel like you are home. When I walk in, I feel instantly welcomed and relaxed. I feel as if I am amongst my friends and family. And this is all before I start my blissful practice.

Tamara is obviously a very very knowledgeable Yoga Teacher. But what has amazed me the most since I started going to Tamara Yoga Centre is how dedicated she is to yoga. For me it is very important because I know and I can see that she is always doing her best to deliver the best yoga classes she can and the best teacher training she possibly can. A big thank you for that Tamara. A big thank you too to River who is always looking after us and making sure we are having a wonderful experience every time we walk in.

I had tried a few yoga studios but it wasn’t until I went to a class with Tamara that I realised Yoga could be so fun and I’ve never looked back. It’s been transformational in all areas of my life, improving my health, happiness, my work life and most importantly my personal relationships, I would go far as to say Tamara Yoga has saved my life. Tamara Yoga studios are warm friendly and inclusive and you’ll soon realise Yoga is for every type of body.

I’m so glad that I chose Tamara Yoga to do my teacher training. Tamara’s teaching techniques with Asana empower you to have the confidence to take Yoga to the world and she demystifies the philosophical side of this ancient discipline by bringing the Yamas & Niyamas into modern everyday thinking and living. The scheduling of the 2-year course has been great for me as I have school age children so having the school holidays lecture free has worked perfectly for me. I’ve also had the pleasure of meeting and learning with the best bunch of people and I hope at the end of my course we’ll still stay in touch. We’re all very different people, from different worlds but have shared so many of life’s ups and downs together which is empowering in its self knowing that you’re not alone when life throws you a curve ball. I would recommend Tamara Yoga Teacher Training to anyone considering taking their Yoga practice to the next level.

My friend had been recommending that I go to a TY class for years. It wasn’t until I walked a challenging path of bowel cancer and then chemo that I decided to try a class at the Bibra studio. Finding myself on that mat was the beginning of finding myself and returning to the sanctuary of my body.

Rebecca

The vibe, the community, the teachers, the feeling I get during and after class all amount to a complete Yoga experience. Going to Tamara Yoga always sets me up for a great day. Love it!

Tamara is an inspiring, supportive, spiritual teacher. I had previously studied with other teachers, who were all wonderful in their own ways, but could not match the totality of Tamara’s special gifts as a teacher. She is totally giving of herself, presenting an ego-free role model that lives up to the true teachings of yoga. She always displays a delightful sense of humour and she has a shining presence: everything she says and teaches rings with authenticity.

Tamara Yoga isn’t just a yoga studio, it’s a family. For the short time that I’ve been coming to Tamara Yoga I cannot explain the immense positive benefits that I’ve received. In such a chaotic and uncertain time, Tamara Yoga has been a beacon of peace, love and joy for me and I’m sure for so many others. It’s evident that all the staff at Tamara Yoga have a deep and unwavering passion for what they do and the service they provide is impeccable! The variety of classes ensure your every yoga need is fulfilled and they cater for all levels of yoga experience. The new online classes are a revolution, bringing yoga into our homes so we can continue to practice and stay together as a community. I cannot recommend Tamara Yoga more highly! If you do one thing for yourself this year, go give Tamara Yoga a try.

Dr Monique Platell

Tamara Graham has changed my life. I am forever grateful for what she has shared with me: her wisdom, her love, her pureness of spirit. I started taking yoga classes about 5 years ago with another teacher. I say that I ‘took’ yoga classes because that is what I did. I was not practising yoga. At the time, I did not know the difference. All I knew was that something was missing. When I started practising yoga with Tamara, my eyes and my heart were opened. It is a gift simply to be in her presence. Her pureness of spirit shines out in every class.

LOVE this place. Whether in person or in spirit. So grateful to Tamara Yoga x

Dr Megan Joyce

Tamara Yoga’s online classes are honestly the highlight of my day right now. Tamara’s expertise and peacefulness radiate through the computer screen and light up my living room. I can’t wait to get back into the tranquil Claremont studio, but for the time being TY’s online classes are the next best thing.

I’d tried yoga several times in the past and never really connected with it. A friend suggested I try a beginners course at Tamara Yoga. While I hadn’t felt comfortable at the other studios, I quickly settled into the classes at Tamara. The teachers were friendly, encouraging and kind and I felt the wonderful energy of the space from the outset. I’m a rather driven person by nature and I hate being bad at anything, so it was daunting to start a new practice when I knew I would struggle even with the simple poses. Surprisingly, my lack of flexibility has not hindered my ability to enjoy the classes and the calming and soothing effect of the meditative aspects of the practice have changed the way I see and interact with the world.

Dr Angela Alessandri

I have done three of Tamara Yoga’s new on line classes now, each with a different focus (vinyasa, fundamentals and yin). They all bring the importance of yoga to our daily lives, our daily reality. Thank you Tamara Yoga for the calm, the classes and your deep care for our physical and mental well being. I recommend these classes with all my heart.

Karen Chatfield, Bibra Lake

Such a beautiful haven for everyone who comes to practice yoga. Loving the amazing online classes!! Lots of skilled yoga instructors, and classes for every occasion, body, fitness level. From beginners to those who practice daily. Could not love this place more.

Deliah Cassidy, Claremont

I love all of the teachers at Tamara Yoga and since the studio has classes online I have been able to take classes I would normally be unable to attend. The online classes have truly been a Godsend. 🙏🏻 Thank you Tamara and your fabulous team.

This studio is surrouded by trees and greenery viewed through expansive windows. The instructors are friendly and caring … emphasizing listening to your own body as you do your poses, not straining and risking injury.
