Best Kundalini Meditation Places In Vancouver Near Me

Elviie Ad: I love this studio! Yesterday, I had my first class since the pandemic started. And Oh Wow! My body and brain are feeling so sharp and in tune today!

Elin Jonsson: My second home. Love Yoga West and the amazing teachers

m c: With The most recent release of Premkas book and her detailed experience with the abuse she endured at the hands of Yogi Bhagan I would hope and pray that removing YB photos from the studio would indicate that Yoga West does not support OR condone such horrific behaviour from one human to another. This kundalini community is going through a extremely challenging time and while investigations are taking place the studio itself could be serving the people by representing yoga west a safe place to breath and move without glorifying YB. We must take action diligently and calming to provide a safe and respectful environment by adjusting to the changes that must be taken in lieu of this 'credible' information! Sat Nam

Anya Torina: My favorite yoga place in Canada:), that focuses on Kundalini yoga - You should try it!Besides yoga you can enjoy small Sikh temple & kirtans, gong healing baths, ginger tea, cozy sofas, book shop, different workshops and more..

Cristina W.: This is a good studio to check out if you are looking to learn very traditional, serious Kundalini yoga. Although it is not necessary to wear all white (or close to white as possible), loose clothing, that is what the teachers and some students wear to class, which is what is traditionally done in Kundalini yoga. The classes are prefaced as "Kundalini yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan." Frequent use of mantras and intense breathing exercises in class. Breath of fire is common and sustained for moderate periods of time. I enjoyed the teacher's focus on bringing a positive outlook to this life we have been gifted, and doing the most we can to bring positivity to our reality and our world and our fellow humans.The reason I gave 3 stars is because I didn't feel the teacher guide me outside of the physical structure of a pose. I do feel that the use of breath of fire and other very intense and demanding breathing practices can be dangerous when the teacher is not mindful of how much they are opening up the students in their class by directing them to use these powerful breathing tools, especially for moderate periods of time. Kundalini yoga is a practice that should be taught accessibly and carefully because of the intensity of breathing that can occur, and I didn't feel this class was very accessible to the average, western Joe (as the studio is called Yoga West, after all) in need of the spiritual, physical, and mental benefits of Kundalini yoga, who may not be prepared to (and shouldn't, if they haven't built up to it) jump into such intense breathing exercises. Rather I felt it catered to the experienced, traditionalist yogi who has had a lot of experience with these intense breathing exercises and already knows how to do them without hurting themselves.That being said, I think this is a great studio for experienced yogis looking for a very traditional and serious approach to learning the roots of Kundalini yoga (as taught by Yogi Bhajan).

Emanuele Bignone: If you want to learn kundalini yoga, this is the place. They have great classes.Try it for a bit and you will see chances in yourself.

Janice Stuart: I am grateful to Mak and Ayesha for going beyond yoga as an exercise form to yoga as a deep form of healing. Love this studio

Namaste Yoga: As a previous teacher and a student experiencing the studio I applaud all the teachers and students who go to this boutique yoga studio. Warm and inviting...the Khan family strives to provide all your more classical yoga needs...including the option of becoming a teacher!

Hamed Soltani: This is an absolutely amazing yoga studio, I go from down town Vancouver to north Vancouver multiple times a week just to go there. They have varieties of yoga classes with amazing yogis and instructors. I specially enjoy macs classes on Sunday mornings, where he teaches the philosophy and purpose behind each yoga pose as well as demonstrating each pose to make sure everyone have the right posture and position. All of the yogis are very caring and so this for passion and nothing else. The classes themselves are unbelievably good, you simply can not feel better than that. Very relaxing and calming at the same time make your body flexible and sometimes sweating and doing very good movements. At this studio they are real and true yogis.
