Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India
Our 200 Hour Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India is certified by Yoga Alliance USA. Kundalini yoga in essence comes from Tantra Yoga — tantra can broadly be defined as a “technique”. Kundalini yoga is not part of the original yoga philosophy outlined by Patanjali or other yogic schools, but it integrates the philosophy of yoga very well. Over the years of development of tantra yoga, yogis discovered that this profound science of awakening is possible for everyone.

Kundalini yoga is meant for spiritual awakening — Shakti awakens and rejoins Shiva.
People often mistake Kundalini yoga for a Tantra science concerned with sexual energy or spiritual powers (Siddhis). In reality, Kundalini yoga is meant for spiritual awakening. Some powers may arise along the way, but the practice is not about gaining them — it is about progressing on the path of yoga.
Kundalini integrates beautifully with yoga philosophy: the awakening of Kundalini is described as Shakti awakening and rejoining Shiva. In the language of classical yoga, it is Prakriti moving back to its source, consciousness (Purusha).
