About us The College The College is an affiliation of yoga teachers trained in classical disciplines who aim to bring a traditional discipline back into modern Yoga. Sri Jani Baker, Principal BA (Melb) Grad Dip Marketing (CIT) Grad Dip Arts - Social Science- (Monash) Postgrad Dip Health Psychology (La Trobe.) Trained in the discipline of Yoga by Swami Shankarananda Trained as Hatha Yoga teacher by Joy Spencer Trained as Meditation Leader by Ian Gawler She has been variously Secretary of the Gawler Foundation, Secretary of the Shiva Mediation Centres, and is currently (2002-3) President of the Yoga Teachers Association. Jani began practising Yoga when she was 16, starting by following the illustrations in a handout in the Women's Weekly, and thereafter finding a yoga class wherever she found herself living. It was not for another 17 years that she found that there was more to Yoga than stretching and bending. She has been practising the full discipline of Yoga, including daily meditation, for the last 20 years. She has almost completed "Path Through the Yoga Sutras", a commentary on the Yoga Sutras helping students to get the radical shift of experience pointed to by the Sutras, along with exercises to aid comprehension. Robert Baker, Administrator BSC (Melb) MBA (Melb) Higher Diploma of Teaching, Work Place Training Certificate After living in a yogic household for the
better part of 30 years, Robert finally succumbed to Yoga and meditation. He
practises asana and dhyana on a regular basis, and is studied anatomy at
LaTrobe university to assist with the Classical Yoga Teachers program. Robert also teaches the program in
Principles of Teaching and Commercial Principles . Sally Dawson, Teacher Trainer Diploma of
Classical Yoga from the Bachelor of Applied Science (Medical Technology) Graduate Diploma in Business Administration Sally has practised hatha yoga for over seven years and embraces and teaches from a yogic perspective that includes not only the physical, but also the mental and spiritual disciplines of yoga. In teaching Sally draws on her understanding of the human body to help students explore the asanas to their own capacity. She also encourages students to explore meditation and stillness, helping them to understand that the busy mind is what usually gets in the way of the "union" that yoga offers. Sally runs
Waverley Yoga Studio in Glen Waverley, teaching classes in the classical
style that are suitable for beginners but also offer dynamic work and
stronger poses for those with more experience. She also teaches Parent and
Baby Yoga and Antenatal Yoga. Sally's experience also includes teaching for
corporate clients, schools and gyms. Tracie Crockford ACCY Graduate, with background in dance and
