Kundalini Shakti
The problem in our modern times is that many on the spiritual path have experienced an awakening of their kundalini energy. The problem is that these awakenings lack integration and maintenance. There is a systematic approach in which sequence is instrumental in the slow progressive integration of the kundalini energy. This ensures sustainability and safety.

Learning about how the mind works, what it is and what it is not will serve as a catalyst to understanding yoga. These teachings will be intellectual and experiential. The combination: paramount in integrating the teachings.
Mantra and Sanskrit
In yoga we have a variety of tools to attain the ultimate goal of yoga: actualizing our fullest potential. Mantra is one of these tools. The subtlety of mantra is the reason it is so profound as it is expansive and the effect permeates the material plane of existence while accessing the subtle layers as well. Our mouth is a tool for directing the flow of prana. We can use sound and breath to expel energy. Contrarily, we can use sound to draw the energy back into ourselves.
Students will learn a variety of mantras to use for personal use and with private clients and during class
Students will learn about the use of Sanskrit. What is Sanskrit and proper pronunciation of the various sounds and letters.
The efficacy in utilizing in an intelligent manner one of the most refined tools we have available to us: sound.

Ayurveda
Understanding Ayurveda as the sister science of yoga is a deeply profound way to connect you as a teacher, and practitioner of yoga to what yoga really is and how to integrate it FULLY into your life. Yoga without Ayurveda is like waffles without syrup. Do you want bread, or do you want the sweetness of the waffle experience. Without the syrup you don’t have waffles. And without Ayurveda you are really practicing calisthenics. Ayurveda is the thread that stitches the postures, the daily routines and the diet and lifestyle practices together.
This portion of the program will include:
Understanding the philosophy and theory of Ayurvedic medical theory: I.e Element theory.
Understanding element theory and how to use this understanding in personalizing your own yoga practice, and how to adjust your food intake along with learning how to help others do the same

Understanding how prana moves in the body (prana vayus)
Sanskrit and Mantra: The Language of the Gods
Sanskrit is the language of Yoga but it is no ordinary language.
Sanskrit is understood to be a tool for interacting and enhancing the nervous system. It is a technology for interacting with the subsconscious.
Sanskrit instills a connection with vibration, the nervous system and with nature as a whole. It strengthens the nervous system and increases sensittivity. This sensitivity fosters an intimate connection with the flow of nature and acts to catalyze growth in Ayurveda and Yoga.
The experience of Sanskrit, Ayurveda, Tantra and Yoga are interwoven with each other and create a powerful synergy.
