Kundalini Yoga is amazing, unlike any other yoga you are probably familiar with. It invigorates me like nothing else and leaves me feeling strong and powerful, like I could conquer anything with just a lift of my little finger. The class is broken up into sets known as kriyas, often with quick and repetitive movements that will push you to the edge and show you the light!
I took a quick look at Gurudass Kaur's website, and it looks like she will be joining us in Jax between stops in Colombia and Italy. What a pitstop. Good for us, as it gives us a rare chance to practice Kundalini. Her specialty training for teachers and parents, Childplay Yoga, will also be featured during the weekend. All events take place at Yoga Ananda in Avondale.
Friday, September 19, 5:30-6:45 pm, Kundalini Yoga open class, $14.
and following at 7-8:15 pm, Mantras in Motion Kirtan, $15.
WEAR WHITE! I recently attended a workshop with Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa, and I was sticking out quite prominently in my black and green outfit.
Mantras with mudras is the healing science of today and tomorrow. This practice uses choreographed hand and body movements to express the essence of the mantras that are being chanted. Mantras in Motion invites viewers to experience the transformative effects of healing mantras coupled with powerful mudras.
