Yoga Workshops & Retreats

I have been practicing Kundalini Yoga for about 12 years and have been teaching Kundalini Yoga to adults and children since 2010. I have recently moved from West Cork to Kerry and teach workshops and retreats rather than weekly classes at the moment. I am working towards opening a yoga studio space in the next months in the wild mountains of Kerry. I have been practicing Sat Nam Rasayan since 2011 and love sharing these powerful technologies.

What is Kundalini Yoga?

Kundalini Yoga, is a form of the ancient science of Yoga. Kundalini describes the lifeforce within everyone of us; it is the highest form of energy. Kundalini yoga invites the Kundalini power to rise in a slow and safe manner that gives you a feeling of wellness and contentment. It is also called the yoga of awareness.

It incorporates exercise, breath, meditation and sound current to help relax, strengthen and heal your body, mind and spirit. Kundalini Yoga is the “Yoga of awareness” for people who deal with the stress and struggles of every day life.

This sophisticated technology can help us achieve our total vitalised identity, giving us the tools for our own self evolution. Using the science of mudras and mantra we can command changes in our brain, evolving the Neocortex, effecting our endocrinology, allowing us to have a totally different experience in the here and now!

Kundalini Yoga works with Chakras

Chakras are energy centres or nerve hubs; the 7 main chakras are located along the spine. They interact together as a whole, influencing and vitalizing every aspect of our being, -physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

Benefits of Kundalini Yoga:

Regardless of your age or fitness level, you can feel and assimilate the benefits of this sacred science. From your very first class, you will experience a feeling of well being and happiness. But the real jewels come with regular practice. bringing increased awareness, radiance, youthfulness.

At the start of the workshop you will be taught how to practice a strong energising invigorating breath know as Bhastrika or sometimes called Breath of fire. This breathing technique is used while practicing the yoga exercises in order to help energise and move the energy within. Some of the postures are similar to other forms of yoga, but the most distinctive aspect is how the postures are practiced, using ‘breath of fire’. And this can really affect how one feels, and also helps release energy blocks and invigorate oneself.

Some other postures are more unique to Kundalini yoga, and some of these involve holding apparently ‘easy postures’ while practicing ‘breath of fire’ These postures can be held for 2 minutes and longer. The effort required can be a lot more than we imagines. Often we need to ‘work through’ our self imposed mental limits when we want to give up, but by refocusing on the breath we can breakthrough and access another layer of energy within.
