The Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training Team

“The Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training literally saved my life. Before I signed up, I was falling apart physically and was having trouble breathing. Now I practice conscious breathing every day and I don’t see the doctor anymore. I am totally healthy in all three areas – spiritually, physically and emotionally. I have changed my lifestyle, I’m eating better.”

“The Teacher Training has been a transformative experience for me. I’ve learned so much about myself and what I have to give to others. I’m ready to “be a lighthouse!”
