Teacher Certification Program
Program Outline and Teaching Team. A unique and highly skilled Kundalini Yoga teaching team has joined with Divine Light Yoga to offer a very special opportunity for personal transformation and growth directed towards certification as a Kundalini Yoga Level I teacher. Combining the profound benefits of residential training in a natural environment, a team of dedicated and experienced teachers, morning Sadhanas, and succinct and precisely organized teaching formats, an already proven program is now available here in the US.
Over the course of three, one week periods and under the leadership of Kundalini Research Institute Board Member and Coordinator of the Asia Kundalini Teaching program, Sunder Singh Khalsa, you will experience the unique and deeply transformative teachings of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan. In this community styled living environment, a well integrated and experienced team of KY teachers will guide, inspire, uplift and teach you how to become a skilled, competent and successful Kundalini yoga teacher, while helping you to develop and integrate your personal sadhana, your daily spiritual practice, into your life. This aspect alone, integrating your daily spiritual practice, is one of the single most transformative and important parts of your teacher training, as your experiences in Sadhana help to form your authentic teaching voice. Within your daily practice your personal growth becomes the platform from which you teach.
Your teaching team members also include Kartar Singh Khalsa, who experienced the teachings of Yogi Bhajan first hand for over 30 years and is a certified KY teacher trainer who continues to teach internationally, Gurunater Kaur Khalsa, also a certified KY Provisional Professional Trainer who was guided by Yogi Bhajan for 34 years.
