About Kundalini Yoga
"The Yoga of Awareness beckons, inviting you to embrace a transformative journey. Be open to a new experience!"
Kundalini Yoga is a dynamic and transformative practice that combines physical postures, breathwork (pranayama), meditation, and chanting to awaken the dormant energy within you—known as "kundalini." This energy is believed to reside at the base of the spine and, when activated, rises through the chakras, or energy centers, to promote heightened awareness, inner clarity, and spiritual connection.
Unlike other forms of yoga that may focus primarily on physical fitness, Kundalini Yoga is deeply focused on consciousness and energy flow. The practice can include rapid, repetitive movements, specific breath techniques like Breath of Fire, and the chanting of mantras such as "Sat Nam" (meaning "truth is my identity"). These elements work together to cleanse the mind and body, balance the nervous system, and elevate your sense of self-awareness.
Practicing Kundalini Yoga regularly can bring a wide range of benefits: increased energy levels, mental clarity, emotional resilience, and a deeper sense of connection to your true self. It is often referred to as the "Yoga of Awareness" because it leads to expanded consciousness and inner transformation. Whether you’re seeking physical strength, emotional healing, or spiritual growth, Kundalini Yoga provides a powerful, holistic path to balance and self-discovery.

Mantras Chanted
In every Kundalini Yoga class, the sacred space is initiated with the chanting of the Adi Mantra: 'Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo.'
This divine invocation bows to the Creative Wisdom and the Divine Teacher within, facilitating a connection to the Golden Chain of teachers.
Another powerful mantra Mangala Charan Mantra
,also know as the Heart Protection Mantra
"Ad Guray Nameh
Jugad Guray Nameh
Sat Guray Nameh
Siri Guru Devay Nameh"
Translation: I bow to the primal wisdom. I bow to the wisdom through the ages. I bow to the true wisdom. I bow to the great unseen wisdom.resonates with primal wisdom, guiding us through the ages and illuminating the true essence.
This Mangala Charan Mantra clears doubt, opens us to guidance, and wraps a protective light around our being.
Chanted three times at the beginning of each class, or absorbed through listening, these mantras carry a profound vibrational energy. The language may be Gurmukhi or occasionally English, their impact transcends understanding each word's meaning, as they embody qualities like peace, prosperity, and connection.
"Open to everyone, our offerings cater to individuals of varying abilities and experience levels."
