About Yoga…
Kundalini Yoga, as taught by Yogi Bhajan, has been described as a discipline that helps not only the body and mind, but the healthy integration of all parts of what constitutes our self with the divine emanation.
Hatha yoga classes incorporates elements from the yogic tradition, focussing on asanas and pranayama.

What to expect on the day
Kundalini classes:
Each class opens with the Adi Mantra (Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo – ‘I bow to the divine wisdom, the divine teacher within’) and most classes will also include the Mangala Charan Mantra (Aad Guray Nameh, Jugaad Guray Nameh, Sat Guray Nameh, Siri Guru Day Vay Nameh – ‘I bow to the primal wisdom, I bow the the wisdom eternally true, I bow to the true wisdom, I bow to the great unseen wisdom’);
This is usually followed by some pranayam (breathing excercises) and/or warm-ups;
The Kriya (a set of postures in a specified sequence) follows;
A relaxation (a very important part of the practice!);
And usually a meditation with either vocal or silent mantra;
The closing sequence, which includes part of an Irish blessing (‘May the long time Sun shine upon you, all love surround you, and the pure light within you guide your way on’) followed by either one or three intonations of Sat Nam (‘truth is my name/identity’).
Hatha classes:
We normally begin with the intonation of three OM (or three ONG), followed by sequences to release stresses accumulated with the body’s multi-levelled ‘skin’ (fascia). This is usually followed by some pranayama, classical yoga asanas, and relaxation.
