A Safe, Somatic Approach to Kundalini Yoga

You’ve been researching your options — in-person, online, traditional lineages, modern hybrids.

But nothing feels quite right.

You want the power of Kundalini, without the dogma.

The depth of tradition, without the hierarchy.

The transformation, without bypassing your body.

That’s why I created this training.

In this trauma-informed, somatic-based 200-hour program, you’ll experience Kundalini as a grounded, feminine force — not something to push through, but something to partner with.

Whether you want to teach or heal, this training offers a safe, embodied way forward.

      I looked into so many different online trainings, but Uplifted’s course outline in the brochure kept pulling me back. There’s so much more offered in Brett’s training than others I looked at. It completely blew my expectations out of the water!”

      This is a 200-hour Kundalini Yoga TTC(teacher training certification) through a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS). You’ll graduate as a certified yoga teacher (RYT-200). This 200 hour online Kundalini yoga teacher training fully meets Yoga Alliance’s standards and prepares you to teach yoga in person, online, and around the world.
      What is Kundalini Yoga?
      Kundalini Yoga is a powerful blend of breathwork, movement, mantra chanting, and meditation designed to awaken spiritual energy (also known as kundalini energy). In this training, we explore a trauma-informed and somatic approach to kundalini awakening — one that is grounded, safe, and rooted in your own personal practice.
      How is this different from other Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training Certifications?

      Most Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training programs are affiliated with Yogi Bhajan or the Kundalini Research Institute (KRI). Ours is not. We offer a non-dogmatic, modern training that includes yoga anatomy, feminine form Kundalini, adaptations for diverse student populations, tantrik breathing practices, chakra practices, adaptive kriya yoga, and trauma-conscious teaching skills. You’ll learn how to create your own Kundalini sequences, modify kundalini practices for students with injuries or trauma, and blend Kundalini with vinyasa yoga, hatha yoga, or yoga nidra.
      Is this Kundalini yoga teacher training beginner-friendly?
      Yes. Whether you’re brand new to yoga practice or already have previous training, this Kundalini training includes adaptive Kriyas, and foundational yoga postures—all taught through a trauma-informed, beginner-friendly lens. You’ll learn to modify, sequence, and embody both yogic philosophy and safe alignment from the ground up. This program is for anyone ready to deepen their spiritual energy work and yogic knowledge. No fancy poses required — just a willingness to learn, embody, and grow.

      Can I integrate this with other yoga styles I teach?
      Absolutely. You’ll learn how to blend Kundalini with vinyasa yoga, hatha yoga, yoga nidra, and more. Many of our students already teach yoga postures in other styles and use this program to enrich their teaching skills and deepen their own practice.

      Will I get to practice teach and receive feedback?
      Yes! You’ll practice teach in live calls, get personal feedback, and submit a final practicum. Whether you want to teach at a kundalini yoga ashram, online, or offer your own classes, we prepare you to guide others with clarity, creativity, and yogic knowledge.

      Yes! You’ll graduate with a strong foundation in kundalini yoga teacher training methodology, including how to teach yoga, sequence classes, lead kundalini yoga classes, and adapt your style to different students. You’ll also complete practice teaching, develop your own sadhana practices, and gain confidence through mentorship and feedback.
      Is this an online training or are there live classes?
      This is a fully online yoga teacher training, with both self study and live classes. You’ll get instant access to your training materials and video library, and participate in live cohort calls over 10 weeks so you can forge deep friendships, take action on everything you’ve learned and receive supportive feedback. Live connection with other yoga practitioners and experienced teachers is a cornerstone of this training. You can’t evolve in a silo.

      What if I just want this for personal transformation?

      What kind of community support is included?
      You’ll join a global community of yoga teachers, seekers, and leaders. Inside our private platform, you can ask questions, connect with peers, and share your wins.
