| "In the 8 week courses with Antara I healed a lot around my sexuality, the pranic breath rhythms combined with movement induce a trance like state that seemed to open up a pathway for greater insight into my emotional and behavioural patterns.
The Kundalini Dance sessions always leave me feeling energized, in a state of clarity with a sense of deep inner peace and connection." - Mia Cuyler , Dancer-Performer Byron Bay, 2001-2003 |
| "Having been asked to produce the Breathe album with Orlando I felt I had to do some research.
meeting some of the crew on the morning of an all day workshop I felt quite sceptical to the truth that a bit of breathing and dancing could really do much other than to hyperventilate you.
anyway by lunch time I started to feel that my serotonin levels were increasing that warm love for my fellow spiritual passengers was starting to flow.
There was a club atmosphere in the air and it was only 1pm in the afternoon. As we progressed through Anahata breath
the love was beginning to feel like I'd actually taken MDMA.
By this point the whole room had gone tribal noone seemed to matter how you moved or expressed themselves, energy levels were ecstatic. There was a definite charge going through everyone which just made us rise higher. I couldn't stop smiling like I had once done in the main room of the Ministry of Sound back in the 90's. We passed through throat and into third eye and the energy became calm as if we were now centring ourselves channelling that tribal energy source into the higher realms of our celestial body. The connection to the astral felt like it had been cleared by the preparation we had been through. We had achieved oneness mission completed in my book.Thanks Antara.

| ""Working with Antara over the past three years has transformed my life. I now have a much deeper awareness of the interconnectedness of what is going on in my physical body and my emotions and my mental state. I have found a way to directly connect to source. The kundalini dance work has has empowered me to walk through the different situations in my life with love.
Antara has a wealth of experience and knowledge, the depth of commitment to her own self-healing allows participants to explore themselves on a very deep level. in assisting her in several courses and retreats over the years I have witnessed the transformation and activation of many individuals"" - Kate Little , Publicist, Mother |
| "" During the Chakra Dance Journey with Antara, I made friends with my body, it was the first time that I have ever managed to drop my self-consciousness and inhibitions concerning dance."" - Carmen Reinhart , Bodyworker, Mother |
| "?On a material level during the nine weeks I was on the Chakra Dance Journey with you, I changed my job to one that was not only more in tune with my true spiritual path,but also brought more material prosperity into my life. I had been working as a Public Relations Consultant, working with businesses to promote their products and activities.
Now I am using my skills to heal the Earth working for a government authority that reduces green house gas emissions, and am being paid substantially more than I was previously.I attribute this job coming to me due to the work I did with you on aligning my base chakra to my higher self.
During your course, I released a lot of negative patterns that came up spontaneously.
Your unique approach of combining movement and sound with breathing and light healing really enabled me to experience a deeper level of clearing and understanding than I had believed possible..?
I have a much deeper insight into myself. One of the main gifts you have given me through your work, is the ability to change. To turn from the re-experiencing the pain of the past, and to discover in myself a sense of wholeness with the universe.
" - Madeleine Lynch , Sydney |
| ""The Chakra Dance Journey workshop helped motivate me on a much more creative life-path. The breath keys were invaluable in getting me into the optimal state during child - birth."" - Jane Little , Designer, Mother |
| "?The sacred space created by Antara and her team supported me to reach such depth, I felt like I could truly feel and express every emotion that arose without judgment.
The sensation of bringing the energy through every chakra was such an amazing experience and so freeing. Over the period of the course, a huge emotional release had taken place, and the mental clarity was phenomenal. The completion of the course had a truly life changing affect, as I had gained the inner strength to make some major life changing decisions for myself and my family.?
" - Felicia White , Marketing Director |
| ""Antara's work takes you in deep if you have the
willingness to look honestly at yourself and learn. I
had a very powerful shift in an issue that had been
affecting me my whole life. It was incredible to see
how just a 3-hour session could have such a momentous impact on me and enable me to forgive those concerned which was then confirmed in a dream I received the following week. Her clear and empowering guidance takes you into a heightened awareness of yourself and she holds the space for you to completely get in your body in a spontaneous and playful way. If you are willing to dive deep, dive with Antara!"
" - Ashera Hart , London, England |
| "? The Kundalini dance course has been invaluable in helping me to reconnect, to express myself, with pride, exalting in my body?s ability to move joyfully, passionately and sensually. I felt as if I let go of feelings of worthlessness and shame around my sexuality that I had been holding onto due to past events that were well and truly past. I found the sessions and the safe space created to be very supportive.?" - Anne Weeks , Lismore,NSW |
| "?Lots of stuff came up that I was able to release in the dance, trust and grief especially. I feel I healed a lot around an abortion I had a few years ago, and grief about being childless. I realized I don?t really like myself in romantic sexual relationships, issues around my own feelings of sexual in -attractiveness. I am now more open, receptive and am attracting more sexual exchange.?. ? Pseudonym
" - Patricia Mac Lachlan , Byron Bay |
| " ?Clearing the throat chakra definitely helped me in with being more assertive. During the week we were working on the throat chakra I found myself much more direct and assertive, saying things I needed to say to both my mother and my boss?" - Leanne Collett , Byron Bay, Australia |
| "??I have lived with continual body pain from arthritis for the past 15 years, during the last eight weeks whilst doing the kundalini dance sessions weekly I have felt less body pain and feel generally freer in my body.?" - Marina Batalhd , Byron Bay |
| "?Powerful, helpful, shifting work, facilitated by a devoted, sensitive and beautiful Antara. It?s hard for me to talk about my experience because it all feels so indescribable, but I can say that finally I am accessing ?cellular? stuff; I managed to ?get out of my head? and actually ?felt my body? for what really feels like the first time since I was 3. I felt real joy (if only for brief moments), and felt that connection to other human beings that makes me want to cry, it is so beautiful as at the same time as being sad and painful? thank you." - Merren , Mullumbimby,NSW, Australia |
| "?After the Kundalini dance workshop with you I felt a major shift in my energy levels after a 5 month low. I experienced emotional release and healing in such an effortless way, somehow beyond the mind. I simply felt different - more positive and more alive and knew that healing had occurred.?" - Laura Bradshaw , Byron Bay |
| "The 8 week Kundalini Ecstatic Dance course was perfect for me in so many ways. The work is deeply healing and releasing. I often commented after class that I felt I had "shed" layers of tension, emotional pain and restricting behavioural patterns. I always left the class feeling lighter, clearer, more connected and integrated. The group energy is another inspiration. Through going into trance we unconsciously inspire each other to go further, to explore the unfamiliar. Moving into essence and inner listening, I experienced deeper levels of connection and healing with all my chakras. This is beautiful work for your body and soul." - Kathryn Riding , Byron Bay |
| "?I feel much more energy since doing the Kundalini Dance course all my friends have commented on how good and well and glowing I look.? " - Theresa Clark , Byron Bay |
| "During the throat chakra session, I experienced an enormous surge of energy, throughout my entire being, which resulted in the piercing of all my energetic layers and ecstatic union with the divine." - Aiswara , Lennox Head, NSW |
| "This work is a multi - dimensional self healing technique which has completeley transformed my life. It has empowered , accelerated and expanded my consciosness. I have not come across anything else that has the depth of Kundalini Dance it rocks!! " - Rochelle Adam , Massage Therapist |
| "Having worked one on one in the Holistic Healing Industry, counselling/listening and receiving this download of energy as people release their stuff, can be quite draining.. Now as a facilitator of this dance practice, I have found that this dance practice can support, inspire, train and enlighten an individual, simply through dance and movement.. no mind/no analysing, no need to delve too deep into the what, when, why and how! the body knows what it needs to do and when we can get out of the way and find our own rythym of dance, we can begin to see our way back home... a weight loss programme for the mind, body, heart and soul..." - suerobson , Holistic Healer |
| "Leyolah is an emodied form of ecstatic remembrance, i feel such depths of trust under her facilitation.She holds the group with such graceful strength, and is so supportive of each persons process that there is no choice but to surrender into the oppourtunity to explore the ancient transformational keys of Kundalini Dance.
" - Ahlye Bertin , ecstasic dance facilitator/mother |
| "Leyolah Antara lives her teachings. She embodies the Divine Feminine of a Thousand Names. She is a model of how we can, through our very bodies, raise the vibration rate of a humanity in dire need of these tools. Through dance movement, breathing, our voices and meditations we were slowly, gently, but ever so inexorably inspired to experience our ecstatic potent selves. She and her staff loved us and loved and loved us...until we loved ourselves.
" - Anne Cressy , artist/writer |
| "After my taking my first Kundalini Dance Facilitator Training my life transformed 360 degrees. So much was let go of, and I felt more aligned with my essential self than ever before. The very first moment - the moment we first plugged into mother gaia I was swept with the feeling of being deeply in love - yet it was not a love for another human being - it was for myself, this work, existance and the universe. Since then Kundalini Dance continues to open me to experience myself as that overwhelming love, and I have found the source of that feeling deep within my being. It is from that place I am able to now move within the world with more acceptance and understanding for all that arises.
Leyolah has been an inspirational guide, and a source of deep wisdom. She has helped me to see more clearly the things that hold me back in my life, the negative patterns and loops I get stuck in. She has been a wonderful reflection to remind me of who I am, and that its possible to live in our essence in this world at this time. She has embodied for me both the fierce intiatrix and the uncondtionally loving universal mother. Her courage to continue to trust, embody and share the wisdom that comes from her bones, from her body continues to inspire me as I share these tools with the world.
As a Kundalini Dance instructor I have the opportunity to merge my deep love for dance with my passion for transformation and awakening! It has been an amazing journey of discovery as I continue to peel off the layers of the ego and who I think I am - to more deeply share myself with the participants of my classes. It has been humbling, and exhilaring, soul gratifying and deeply challenging - as my karmic cleansing is accelerated. In all though - it has anchored me in my ecstatic body and now the practice is to continue to open as that in all things I do, in all moments with whatever arises. I have found what I was born to do and the immense gratitude that arises every time I lead a Kundalini Dance ceremony is nothing less than pure ECSTASY!
" - Luna Ravenchilde , Kundalini Dance Facilitator |
| "The depth of my trust and regard for Leyolah Antara is infinite.
i feel unwavering trust in her strength in ability to hold me and the whole group through anything. I have participated in many workshops and ceremonies with Leyolah, and I have repeatedly witnessed her hold the group and each individual with grounded strength in unconditional love, acceptance and support.
Leyolah humbly and authentically embodies divine mother, sacred sister and soul guide.
