VOICE YOGA TRAINING
ONLINE MAY 2026
Olivia Preye, Georgie Buchanan & Collette Davis
In GITA, a Voice Yoga Training, we turn towards the great devotional text of the Yogic tradition, The Bhagavad Gita. This is a playful exploration of Dharma, yogic philosophy and voice. You will learn how to become a conduit for grace by opening the creative channel and embrace the power of your own voice.
“Sa brahma-yoga-yukta-atma sukham asks.ayam as’nute.”
“His true spirit is yoked with the yoga of the Expansive; he tastes an undissolved happiness…”
Krishna, translation from Poised for Grace by Douglas Brookes
Please note: GITA is only available for students enrolled on the 300 Hour Advanced Facilitator Training.
Becoming a Channel
Voice Yoga Practices
We will honour the Gita with the most devotional tool you have at your disposal, your voice. Liv Preye, founder of Voice Yoga UK, will share Hindustani singing practices with you so that you can melt into the slipstream of Sanskrit, where devotion waits for you in the beats of mantra. This isn’t about learning to sing well but understanding how to open your voice as a channel for grace so that the teachings can ripple out of your rib cage, your throat, your cheekbones.
“The potential of the human voice is vast. Not only can we communicate with language—thousands of different languages—we can sing, we can create sound and rhythm, we can soothe, we can invigorate, we can release and we can shift energy in a profound way. We carry within us an immensely powerful tool for healing both ourselves and other people.” Liv Preye
Dharma and Expression
LEarn improvisation, Play and Storytelling Through Voice
Folk singer and harpist Georgie Buchanan will continue to lead you down the creative pathway as a means to further liberate your voice. By using your voice to express your own story, your own truth and your own experience, you will learn how to speak from your own Dharma. This is a central teaching of the Gita; what is it that you are here to do? And, how does the devotional path of yoga keep you in alignment with that Dharma.
Georgie will skip between improvisation, play and storytelling to take you on a transformational journey to explore what it is that wants to come through you. You will become a channel for creative expression.
“We must recognise Dharma, the real nature of the Self inside, in order to live Dharma outside. Dharma is about making our best choices, seizing upon opportunities and creating a structure that would allow us to build a future.” Douglas Brooks
Voice is your biggest tool as a facilitator and yet this is an area that’s often neglected on yoga trainings. Voice is a means of coming into relationship with the moment, your students and with the divine. You need to know how to wield the power of your voice so that you can not only cue clearly, transmit presence and curate an experience through the space, but also—and most importantly—so that you can become a channel. For grace, creativity and Shakti to flood through your offerings. When you connect to your voice authentically, it becomes a conduit for embodied freedom.
Unto Pure Devotion, We Devote Ourselves
STUDY THE BHAGAVAD GITA
Collette Davis will invite you more deeply into the teachings of The Bhagavad Gita which you will explore through a Non-Dual Kashmir Shaivism lens. Together, we will explore the text chapter by chapter and honour what it means to our shared experience as a group, our own individual journeys and to what is emerging in the collective field at the time.
When you listen closely, speak from what is alive and channel what is longing to come through, you can stay perpetually immersed in the divine. You remain yoked to the source; this is the essential practice of yoga and the foundational teaching of The Bhagavad Gita.
“… nityayuktaa upaasate shraddayaa parayopetaas te me yuktatamaa mataah”
“Those who are always yoked with complete faith, they are considered most yoked to me.” Krishna, translation from Poised for Grace by Douglas Brookes
