Sol Yoga Sanctuary is our home in Cairns — a dedicated space for yoga, sound, and community. Here we host weekly classes, sound journeys, and gatherings to restore and renew.
Our Practice
Nada Yoga: Sound, Breath and Movement
Solsonica creates immersive yoga and live music experiences grounded in the tradition of Nada Yoga — the yoga of sound and vibration.
Rather than treating sound as a passive healing modality, we work with live, responsive music and embodied movement to create experiences of deep listening, presence, and integration. Our sessions weave mindful yoga, breath awareness, and live musical performance using guitar with loops, bamboo and North American flutes, crystal singing bowls, chimes, and percussion.
Sound and movement are held as equal partners — supporting regulation, awareness, and connection through direct experience. Each offering is designed as a complete journey, inviting participants into an active relationship with sound, body, and breath.
At the heart of our work is the belief that collective wellbeing begins with self-attunement — learning to listen inwardly, move with intention, and respond to the moment with clarity.
Yoga | Sound Journey
Saturday 25 July | 3-5pm
A journey from holding on to letting go.
Drawing on the yogic teachings of Vishnu Granthi—the heart knot—this immersive yoga and sound journey invites you to gently soften what has been tightly held. Through mindful movement, breath, live music and crystal singing bowls, create space for ease, presence and the quiet unfolding of what lies within.
