POSTURE (ASANA)
By the very nature of the energy we’re working with, this course is based around freestyle movement. The structure of movement itself finds its ground in five elemental movements. We move through the full spectrum of movement, layering structure and incrementally channelling higher states of energy and consciousness.
From here, we begin to explore how the Kundalini practice itself is layered through our system of classes.
We teach:
Level 1 Classes
- Stability – yielding with root and rise & micro bounce.
- Core – activate the core with the breath of fire & gentle pumping.
- Flow – the flow state with effortless movement.
- Restorative – release & renew with micro movements.
- Mindfulness – Presence with moment to moment movement.
Level 2 Classes
- Core Stability – activate core yield, breath the root and rise with micro bounce with steady pumping.
- Stability Flow – yielding flow, yielding the flow state with micro bounces and effortless movement.
- Core Flow – activate core flow with steady pumping and effortless movement.

BREATHING (PRANYAMA)
We will teach breathing technique but the focus here is on exploring the energy within the breath. Teaching is focused on the movement of energy, rather than breath control.
A large part of this course is activating your intuitive breath and exploring the spontaneity which arises.
We teach:
Bellows Breathing – as the central channel opens it begins to radiate energy and awareness. The Bellows Breath clears the way for the radiance of your presence of being.
Chakra Breathing – as we open the inner channel it gives us access our inner personal/ universal truths and the place they reside within us. Each chakra has its own inner frequency of awareness and energy, with a correlating movement of breath. Opening us up to the full mystery of freedoms breath.
SUBTLE ANATOMY
Continuing on from our Level 2 course, we layer the core principles of yielding, core, flow, micro movement and mindfulness together to access the power of the five elements of movement.
From here, we layer the physical movement into the breath and begin to work directly with the spine and central nervous system, to activate the central channel. As our teachers become used to moving energy up and down their central channel, we begin to channel it into states of consciousness that are the frequencies known as the chakras. We layer the quality of each chakra together to activate the primal Kundalini energy, transforming it into higher states of consciousness and energy.
PHILOSOPHY
Here we focus on the structure and channelling of truth, and the understanding of the transformational experience of awakening. Having one without the other creates an imbalance. Being the channel and the experience at the same time, is the key to living an awakened life.
An example is the Root Chakra. Each chakra holds a personal truth and a universal truth. As a person awakens to the moment, they say “I am in the moment”, the personal truth of it can be asked as a question “Who are you when you are continually present”? As the person moves deeper into the moment, they experience the universal truth. They are not just in the moment, they realise they are the moment itself. By being both the structure and the channel of truth, there is space for alignment of both the personal and the universal truth, awakening the Kundalini from its slumber.
We also explore the practical philosophy of living an awakened life, delving more deeply into the challenges and rewards of living this life.
