Request the schedule when released ⟶01 — Why Level One
Go beyond doing the practice.
Understand what you are doing.
Level One is not only a certification. It is an opportunity to understand Kundalini Yoga as an integrated technology—and to develop the personal experience, sensitivity and steadiness to use it intelligently in your own life.
Understand the technology
Learn how posture, prana, sound, focus and meditation work together—and why specific practices create different effects.
Develop inner listening
Strengthen self-observation, sensitivity and the clear inner attention from which intuition can become more reliable.
Learn to teach
If teaching calls you, learn to structure classes and workshops and guide others with knowledge, ethics and presence.
02 — Who this is for
You do not have to want
to become a teacher.
Some students come knowing they want to teach. Others come because a weekly class is no longer enough and they want to understand the practice from within. Both belong in Level One.
- Practitioners ready to deepen their personal practice and discipline
- Students seeking a clearer understanding of Kundalini Yoga, energy, prana, mind and meditation
- Those drawn to greater self-awareness, intuition and conscious living
- Future Kundalini Yoga teachers and teachers from other yoga traditions

A hybrid immersive pathway
Together in practice.
Together online.
The residential and online dimensions are designed to support one another. We begin by living and learning together in person, continue through live online study, and reunite in Miami to integrate and complete the journey.
Residential Immersion
Ten days and nights together create the space to give yourself fully to practice, study and direct experience.
Live Online Study
The group continues together through scheduled live curriculum classes, with the weekday and time agreed upon collectively.
Miami Integration Weekend
An additional in-person long weekend brings the community back together for practicum, integration and completion.
Why immersion matters
When we step away from the ordinary rhythm of life, learning has room to become experience.
Instead of returning home each evening to work, errands and familiar obligations, the residential environment allows you to remain inside the practice. Sadhana, classes, meals, conversation, rest and shared space all become part of the learning.
Living and practicing together creates continuity, trust and community. Students support one another, learn through one another and often form friendships that continue long after the training ends.
