KUNDALINI YOGA, THE SCIENCE OF AWARENESS: Kundalini Yoga, a 5,000 year-old technology for maintaining balance in body, mind, and spirit, was first brought to America in 1969 by Yogi Bhajan. According to this ancient tradition, Kundalini Yoga will strengthen the glandular system, the nervous system, and the circulatory system; expand the lung capacity; and eradicate emotional blocks that manifest as tension in the muscular system. Kundalini Yoga is accessible for everyone regardless of age or experience. Simple and effective, Kundalini Yoga yields fast and dramatic results, and may help with muscle toning, strength building, increased flexibility, better mental clarity, and stress relief. Please see your regular health care provider before beginning this or any other fitness routine. Kundalini Yoga combines conscious breathing (Pranayama), guided movement, meditation, simple postures (Asana), stretching, sequence (Kriya), rhythm, and sound (Mantra) to balance body, mind, and being. Remember who you truly are, love yourself completely, and accept yourself with all you potential and faults. These are the goals of Kundalini Yoga. Let Your Self Blossom! Sat Nam
