The word ‘yoga’ has its root in the Sanskrit language meaning ‘yoke’ or 'union', describing the way
to merge our individual consciousness with the universal, infinite creative consciousness.
‘Kundalini’ refers to the uncoiling of the inner awareness of our spiritual nature, our infinite
creative potential. The word ‘kundalini’ literally means "the curl of the lock of hair of the beloved"
which is a poetic description of the flow of energy and consciousness that already exists within all
of us.
Kundalini Yoga is an ancient technology which was brought to the West by Yogi Bhajan, Master of
Hatha and Kundalini Yoga. It is more than just a system of physical exercises as it works primarily
by facilitating the flow of energy through the body, particularly along the spinal energy channels
and through the chakras to give us the experience of our Divinity.
Kundalini Yoga uses this emergent spiritual energy of the body through a complex system of dynamic
yoga postures (asanas) with meditative focus, energetic breathing techniques (pranayama), hand
positions (mudras), body locks (bhandas), chanting (mantra) and meditation.
THE BENEFITS OF KUNDALINI YOGA ARE MANY:
Kundalini Yoga is a sacred science aimed at enhancing our relationship with our spirit, the part of us
that is eternal. Regular practice can elevate your consciousness, expand your awareness and
transform your life.
After each class students feel uplifted, energised and relaxed at the same time. They see and
feel the results of their efforts quickly. Try it sometime...
