We will warm up with related Chi Gong (energy work), exercises, some Yoga, and stretches.

Tai Chi is a moving meditation; it is an excellent compliment to seated meditation and Yoga. Tai Chi is the soft end of the spectrum of Kung Fu (hard work) training. It's focus is on internal strength or Chi (life force) cultivation. Tai Chi is also considered a martial art, as the movements all relate to self defense techniques.
Tai Chi is practiced for its's health benefits including balance, sensitivity, relaxation, circulation, calming stress reduction effects, mindfulness, propreoception, and graceful flowing harmonious movement with nature.
When I ask students over the years why they practice Tai Chi they always say the same thing; "because it feels good!"

Siddhi Ellinghoven - Kundalini-Naam Kundalini Yoga is the science of awareness. It is known as the mother of all yogas and the yoga of royalty. Naam, the word, rebuilds both body and mind making them purer and lighter. In Kundalini--Naam Yoga we learn the practical application of universal prayer, the science of sound and light-- mantra, mudra, asana, pranayama and bhandas.
-The Healing Flow of Naam Chanting the Naam, the word, to open the heart and to displace the chaos that exist in the mind.
I have been meditating for over 25 years and in my experience vibrating the Naam is the fastest way to release unwanted emotions, thoughts and habits and to create radiance and happiness.
When you chanting to the heavens the heavens will answer, that is truly a statement I can confirm. Chanting changed the way I think, feel and act.
"Meditation is like washing your hands, mantra is the soap". Yogi Bhajan
The chants we will be using are for protection, compassion, guidance and surrender.
All chants will be in compliance with specific mudras to enhance the benefits of the mantra.
-Kundalini Yoga & Meditation The Yoga of Awareness
Kundalini is considered the most comprehensive of yogas, combining meditation, prayer, physical practices and breathing exercises. “Kundalini” literally means “the curl of the lock of hair of the beloved.” This poetic metaphor alludes to the flow of energy and consciousness that exists within each of us, and enables us to merge with – or “yoke” – the universal Self. Fusing individual and universal consciousness creates a divine union, called “yoga.” The Upanishads, Hindu’s sacred scriptures that date back to the fifth century B.C., describe Kundalini, although the oral tradition reaches back even further into history. For thousands of years, this sacred science and technology was veiled in secrecy, passed along verbally from master to chosen disciple
Every class has a different theme, that's why I call it the Yoga of surprise...you never know for which theme you are showing up and it is always the right one!
