There is one line in Asa Diva and that’s in the words of Nanak: Asa di Vaar
duyee kudrat saajee-ai kar aasan ditho chaa-o
God sat in a posture to see the graceful happiness of Himself and His Creation.
That is the power of the posture!
Asan is not a small thing. Asan means also ‘seat’.
It means elementary power on which you house your consciousness.
People don’t understand, they think this is all a joke. No! Posture is your foundation on which is a hub – on which all your movement is calculated. If you do not have a deep steady posture – you have nothing!

Deepen your practice with The Yoga of Asana, a transformational course that nurtures our understanding of the mechanics, energy and body language contained in each asana. The Yoga of Asana breaks through the blocks that prevent us from experiencing the magic and full potential of Kundalini Yoga kriyas.
The Yoga of Asana will provide you with the tools not only to practice asanas better, but to be fully aware of what you are doing and be capable of teaching it, to be present in the experience, meditate more effectively, and, as the Asa di Vaar says, to sit in a posture and see that "graceful happiness".

This course serves Level 1 and Level 2 Kundalini Yoga teachers and comprises six modules that cover aspects such as:

In-depth study of the angles and triangles that make Kundalini Yoga so effective
Anatomy of the subtle nadis, meridians and muscles and the electromagnetic field in the context of the asana
Major diseases and limitations of the musculoskeletal system.
Practising asanas with devotion and compassion
Communicating majesty and mastery through the posture

The Yoga of Asana course has already taken place in:
Rome, Italy, October 2009 / April 2010 at Budokan Yoga Center and Cascina Farsetti.
Verona, Italy, February / October 2011 at Yoga Benessere.
Stockholm, Sweden, January / June 2011 at Rootlight Yoga Center.
Currently, The Yoga of Asana is taking place in Milan, Italy, at Sat Nam Yoga Centre.


"Put your heart in the right place first. Then let the posture grow from there. The oak tree grows from the acorn."  Guru Prem Singh Khalsa, The Yoga of Asana, Sweden. 26th March 2011

The Yoga of Asana, The Yoga of Pranayama and Pratyahar

are part of a project called Crystallizing the Diamond

Crystallizing the Diamond sets out to refine and enhance our personal practice of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, so that we may implement it with greater awareness and potency.

In Teacher Training and in our daily practice often there isn't enough time to experience all the different facets of Kundalini Yoga technology with satisfactory depth and precision. Thus, we may not be in a position to make the most out of our practice.

Each module of  Crystallizing the Diamond specializes in one aspect of the technology and builds on the foundations given in Teacher Training with in-depth understanding and precision, to facilitate the ‘state of yoga’ – merging the finite with the Infinite Consciousness.

Our personal practice (Sadhana) will become highly effective in crystallizing The Diamond of the Self to completion (Aradhana), enabling the Light of the Soul to shine forth as a beacon for all (Prabhupati).

"What are the things that affect our posture? Emotions, habits, learned habits, opinion of yourself, a physical trauma, diet, awareness, breath, how you breathe. My posture is my personal compromise with everything that has happened to me in my life.

To have a good posture means you don’t use a lot of energy. You lose no energy, you use minimum energy to stay in one position. All the muscles cooperate, some are antagonists, others are protagonists. They need to be balanced. If one of the muscles is not functioning, the other one has to work.

The position of your feet is also very important. You can learn to adjust your posture by adjusting the jaw!"  Sadhana Singh, The Yoga of Asana, Sweden. June 11th, 2011

This is the team that taught The Yoga of Asana in Italy and Sweden. Teachers can and may change in future courses of The Yoga of Asana.
