Not everyone will be a yoga teacher, but you are a teacher and you have something to teach. Kundalini Yoga will give you the tools and the inner strength to stand up and be who you really are. Shiv Charan Singh
Online and In person training days!
The training is online and in person with 14 full training days being held in-person and 8 training days on-line. The Karam Kriya school, led by Shiv Charan Singh, has developed an excellent capacity for online training since the event of COVID, and we have decided to maintain some online training days to include trainees from diverse locations, keep the overall training cost down and to enable participants to be taught by renowned international trainers Shiv Charan Singh and Angad Kaur.
The in-person training days will give participants an experience of community, sangat, and the essential experience of a spiritual Ashram, which means ‘the place of spiritual effort’. The days will be long and rich and filled with sadhana, seva, theory, kirtan, meditation and kriyas. It is a perfect way to dive in and anchor your commitment to individualise the spirit.
