Overview
The International Kundalini Yoga Therapy Professional Training is an accredited 1,120 hour, 34 month program comprised of 14 segments (courses) and 7 on demand segments. This is our Certification track. This is not simply a sequence of courses you take, finish and get a certificate. You undergo an integrated process that includes clinical supervision, individual mentoring, personal development and a capstone project. You qualify yourself to become a certified Kundalini Yoga Therapist!
The first 3 segments are focused on shifting from being a Kundalini Yoga teacher to becoming a Kundalini Yoga Therapist. They are primarily yoga-focused and take you deep into the consciousness of Kundalini Yoga as therapy. The subsequent segments are focused on assessment and clinical application. They take you into the clinical practice of Kundalini Yoga as therapy.
8 of the 14 segments in the Certification track are open to any Kundalini Yoga teacher without enrolling in, or committing to becoming a certified yoga therapist. All of the 7 on demand segments are also open to any Kundalini Yoga Teacher whether they enroll in the Certification track or not.
By enrolling in the Certification track, trainees receive the added benefit of clinical supervision, individual mentoring and personal development earlier in the process. This integrates the trainees’ development of consciousness, sensitivity, experience and skill.
All segments will be posted on our website 3 – 5 months before they are available.
The International Kundalini Yoga Therapy Professional Training is accredited by the International Association of Yoga Therapists.

“Recently the date was set for surgery to remove my left breast. I asked the doctors to check the cells and the tests showed that I am completely healthy. There is no evidence of cancer. So the surgery was cancelled. The practice of Kundalini Yoga and the meditations really made a difference.”
