Kundalini yoga gets its name from the Sanskrit term Kundalini, which according to doctrine, refers to a primordial energy which would be present in each human being and would evolve along the main channel (susumma) located in each human being, moving along the vertebral column at the centre of the spinal cord, from the sacrum up to the top of the head. This practice focuses on awakening the consciousness. A class format consists of the practice of asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing technique), bandha (locks and contractions) and the recitation of mantras. The benefits of this powerful technique are huge, and have an incredible impact on your life.
