What is Kundalini Global?

Kundalini, in Hinduism refers to a form of primal energy said to be located at the base of the spine.  A yogic practice emerged thousands of years ago to work with this energy that was only taught to Brahmans and the royal caste system, this was considered a secret technology. 

Historically, in the Western world, Kundalini Yoga has been taught from the perspective of Yogi Bhajan, who practiced this technology from his religious roots in Sikhism.  This is a curious distinction, because many of us that practice are not Sikh and we may come up against concerns regarding cultural appropriation in addition to his abuse scandals which have recently emerged.  Kundalini yoga at it’s core, is the yoga of awareness. A technology to support the creative potential of human beings and the awakening of self-healing.

Valuing love over dogma, Kundalini Global teachers take a wider perspective and hold space where the individual can find their own internal connections and “spiritual practice” regardless of their belief systems, religions, races, ethnicities, lifestyles, gender identities, gender preferences, ages, body shapes, ability levels and socio-economic status.

“Kundalini Global teachers understand that people come to yoga because they want to experience themselves differently. They understand the power of yoga to deal with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, negative history and physical responses to trauma in the body. Using the best and most exquisite practices of the ancient technology of Kundalini Yoga, Kundalini Global teachers work with the nervous system to create a sense of balance within the self, and empower the journey forward in the quantum fields of right here, right now.”  -Carolyn Cowan, Founder
