Kundalini Yoga for Everyone

See where this course is being offered

Kundalini Yoga was designed for people who want to relax, energize, and uplift themselves in a way that fits the busy lives most of us lead.  If you can breathe and move your body, you can do Kundalini Yoga!

  • Find out about the Kundalini energy and how it is awakened with Kundalini Yoga, the “mother yoga”, which is an ancient system for moving energy through the chakras using postures, movement, breath, sound, and mental focus.
  • Kundalini yoga includes many of the same postures found in Hatha yoga. It gives a good challenge, yet is very doable for the average person.  The positive effects of Kundalini yoga can be experienced in a matter of minutes.
  • Have a complete Kundalini Yoga experience, which includes powerfully elevating yoga, deep relaxation, and divine music and meditation in the Kundalini tradition.

A typical Kundalini Yoga class will follow a pattern of first centering with breath and sound, then warming the body with active stretches.  Then the class will focus on a particular set of postures or exercises that have a particular theme (balancing the head and heart, for example), concluding with a deep relaxation in which the students relax lying down.  Often this relaxation is accompanied by soothing and uplifting music or the powerfully transforming sound of the gong.  A typical class is one hour and a half to two hours.
