I offer supported opportunities to encourage personal expansion, to stimulate, exercise, and strengthen your body and mind, and to challenge you to move through blocks and perceived limitations. Results can elicit deep healing, vitality, psychological shifts, and an uplifted mental state, as you take accountability for your personal practice. Class structure begins with “tuning in,” followed by guided breath work (pranayama) and flows into the kriya(s) of physical movement (asana) that lead to nutritive relaxation (savasana). An uplifting meditation follows, and we conclude with “closing the space,” reaffirming your set intentions. Time for reflection with tea is available after class, for “in-person” sessions. Printouts or digital files of the kriyas, a mind-set mantra, and personalized “prompting” journal worksheet are provided to encourage you to continue the class theme in your personal practice. *See Private Session Section

Kundalini Yoga is for everyone. It is universal and non-denominational, and the types of exercises and meditations within this practice are so diverse that anyone can do them. This yoga encourages the exploration of one's capacity and endurance and the ambition to push past perceived, self-imposed limits. This said, the essence of the practice is to honor and respect yourself (body and mind) as it is, in every moment. Modifications can be made at any time.

“The primary objective [of Kundalini] is to awaken the full potential of human awareness in each individual; that is, recognize our awareness, refine that awareness, and expand that awareness to our unlimited Self. Clear any inner duality, create the power to deeply listen, cultivate inner stillness, and prosper and deliver excellence in all that we do.” — Kundalini Research Institute “Kundalini” is an ancient Sanskrit word that literally means “coiled snake.” In ancient Eastern religion it was believed that every person possessed a dormant, divine, potential energy at the base of the spine. We are all born with this energy, but it is through our effort to “uncoil the snake,” that Kundalini energy awakens, turning the dormant potential energy into kinetic (active) energy. This “yoga of awareness” is a Sacred Science, and its sole fundamental purpose is to awaken to your Higher Self. Kundalini Yoga is a practice that blends meditation, and physical movement along with breathwork and chanting. There are energizing and contemplative practices, all aimed for embodiment of the totality of who you are.
