Teacher SPOTLIGHT 
"Amarjit Kaur"
Amarjit Kaur

Ten Fun Facts About Amarjit Kaur

1.  I have been practicing Kundalini Yoga for 36 years.
2.  I have taught literally thousands of yoga classes.
3.  I was at the first Summer Solistice in New Mexico, where we sat in the sun on hay for 5 days of White Tantric Yoga.
4.  I once led a 3 hour meditation (said to open the psychic channels) and it did!
5.  I once held a class for a year where we did a different one hour meditation each week.
6.  I have many guides that help me in my teaching.
7.  In the mid 90's for three years I devoted myself to martial arts and got a black belt.
8.  I once did the melon fast for 30 days.
9.  I love living in cities.
10.  I love visiting historic sites and art museums.
 
I Love Teaching Kundalini Yoga because: In each class, a powerful vibration is created, for all to experience, but the teacher often feels it most profoundly.

 

Kundalini Yoga changes a person's brain chemistry.  I love to see the look of peace and tranquility on a person's face as they leave the class.

 

Kundalini Yoga transforms people.  Nothing satisfies me more than to see a person becoming stronger on all levels.  They evolve with the yoga  and this translates into their daily life.

 
I love teaching at KYB because: KYB is a home for the sacred art of Kundalini Yoga, and all those who gravitate to it.

 

KTB is a well appointed and beautiful environment with art work on the walls, a sacred gong, and water and tea for all.

 

It is a dynamic learning center with books, cds, workshops and concerts.

 

I have great respect for the directors and teachers who are truly special and extraordinary.


I am instantly in love with anybody who enters this place and gets it.

LETTER FROM DENISE KIRPAL KAUR: 
 
Sat Nam dear KYB friends:

 

I have loved being a part of this beautiful community since February of 2011 and having the privilege of teaching here. From the moment I walked in the door and met Siri Ram Kaur and Siri Bani Kaur to getting to know so many of you, this has been a heart opening year of transformation and awareness for me.  I completed my first year at Sai Ayurvedic College in Miami, FL and realized my heart was pulling me west, so I will move to Santa Cruz, CA in a few weeks and complete my Masters at Mt. Madonna Institute, College of Ayurveda and find a piece of land where we will build a Vedic Healing Center.  My final class will be Tuesday July 31st at 5:30 pm. I hope to see you there. Thank you so very much for your welcoming smiles, your attendance in classes and your joyful friendships, I may be physically gone, but my heart and love will remain. 
 
Please keep in touch, 
Denise Kirpal
