Kundalini Yoga is one of the original and most powerful of the 22 schools of yoga. It is a practice that activates and balances our energy. The Sanskrit word “kundalini” refers to a primal energy (shakti) that is coiled at the base of the spine, at our root chakra. This practice precisely and consciously combines breath, mudra, eye-focus, mantra, body locks, and postures to balance the glandular system, strengthen the nervous system, expand lung capacity, and purify the blood. It brings balance to the body, mind, and soul.

The pace of change has been on the rise consistently since the late 60s, when Kundalini Yoga was first introduced in the US, and the stress on our bodies’ nervous systems is increasing. The science of Kundalini Yoga allows us to tap into a technology that helps us to cope with this escalating change.

Kundalini Yoga is a practice of experience of a person’s own excellence which is dormant and becomes awakened.
