The Kundalini Yoga School's teacher training has been renamed: Integral Kundalini Yoga Education. This is a 1-year part-time education at the Kundalini Yoga School's own center "Northern Light Yoga", in central Oslo. The center is located in a beautiful and green area at Majorstuen, on the 3rd floor of Steiner College Berle. 

Kundalini is an ancient term describing the unfolding of the life-force as such.
Kundalini Yoga is a systematic method that supports this process. It is a timeless experience and an ancient technology that was practiced mostly secretly in different cultures and traditions. Yogi Bhajan has brought these techniques into focus and shared them through a format that makes them accessible and safe for the western practitioner. His slogan was: "I am not here to gather students but to create teachers" and  "if you want to know something, read it, if you want to understand it, write about it and if you want to master it, teach it."

We at Kundalini Yoga School are committed to delivering the ancient teachings of Kundalini Yoga in the most authentic and updated way. Due to the recently uncovered scandals from the early days of the 3ho movement it is our duty to inform our students about the controversial figure of its founder Yogi Bhajan. To assure that the training is not centered on his personality we invite a team of interdisciplinary teachers which deliver the teachings on the background of latest research on history of yoga that is going hand in hand with the latest scientific research that gives proof to the health benefits of yoga and meditation. Kundalini Yoga School will not promote any specific religious belief or oppose any dress code or lifestyle. We understand yoga as a science to liberate and empower the individual and are dedicated to sharing this technology that can be found and applied in all areas of life. The content of some topics will be refined to make the teachings adaptable to the time and society we are living in. Explicit the understanding of gender roles so we can constructively contribute to an inclusive society. Additional modules will allow you to deepen your understanding of yogic philosophy and history, western and subtle anatomy, foundations in hatha yoga, sound healing and gong playing, and the work with meridians and the 5 elements.

Kundalini Yoga School (and Northern Light Yoga) work with all effort to create a safe environment for the practice and study of yogic and therapeutic methods that can provide healing and personal growth. We consider the human rights as a common ground and the yogic methods as a means to raise our awareness and sensitivity to establish these values ​​within all areas of society. To us Yoga is as sacred as the inherent dignity and the equal rights of all members of the human family as well as the respect for all life as the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world.
The great benefits that we have received from the practice of kundalini yoga and the positive transformation that we can observe in our students inspire us to continue sharing this technology while we continuously deepen our personal study and understanding.

Why integral?

Integral because the kundalini is a mystical power, the life force as such that is integral to every living being. It cannot be given to you because it is you at your best.

Integral because the integrity of our students is our highest value. We respect the different paths of life and are committed to supporting every student in his/her process. To support you on your journey where you are at the moment. Putting the integrity of the student above all means that everything we teach is an open sharing of ancient as well as modern technology that needs to be approved by your own experience. We don't oppose any dogma or religious belief.

Integral because Kundalini Yoga, in the way we teach and practice it, is meant to be integrated in to your daily life, so that you can live and unfold your potential in your life and context. Kundalini yoga is a Raj yoga, a royal yoga, you don't escape life and society but the technology of kundalini yoga will help you to integrate your self even more into existence, in to life where you can unfold your full potential. The mastering of life itself becomes the yoga.

Integral because in the structure of our education we integrate latest scientific research, we integrate latest revelation about the history of kundalini yoga traditions, we integrate the philosophical approach from other yogic traditions to open the scope, we integrate modern psychology, and we integrate an open dialogue with our students.

“ Kundalini is given different names in different spiritual traditions – Holy Spirit, Chi, Sophia, N´um, Saraswati, Tara, Prajjamaparamita, bodhicitta, and many more - but the power of grace, revelation, and transformation to which these terms point is one and the same. Each language has its name for gold, but gold is always the same substance. All spiritual traditions speak about the power beyond the mind that draws one through the profound process of transformation and revelation to the very source of the highest wisdom and boundless love. That power, in the Yogic tradition, is known as Kundalini . ”
