As a beginner to the Yogi world, I had the honor of taking part in one of their October classes in Seattle. Here is a little snippet of what we experienced…
The beginning of the class started off with a group introduction of the class, they were asked to share something that they were intending to get a clearer vision on or just general relief from. As we went around the room, some spoke of the emotional burdens they were carrying with themselves or with relationships, for others it was the generational trauma that had been resurfacing for them, or the unsure prospect of future pathways.

With this newfound acknowledgement and understanding of one other we began with the key breathwork of Kundalini practice. We practiced the Breath of fire, breathing through our chakras, and breathing through our tensions.
Combining this with alternating physical movements, we stretched and absorbed the breath through communal chant and rhythm.
For the second half of the class we transitioned to the sound healing bath. Now this was a deeply relaxing segment as we laid on our mats as the Yogi Teachers charmed and elevated the class with their use of vibrational instruments.
The gong, played by Metsa Noma was a very significant piece with its deep vibrations melodically massaging us both physically and spiritually. Never was there a long enough lull in the gong before the next round of melodic vibrations carried us to a dream state of meditation and relief. She was unwavering in her ability to procure a consistent and enriching sound with the instrument.
At the same time, Ronin Mane came around to each of the students with the glass singing bowl, carefully pulling every last bit of tension away with the steady sound and vibration. He then brought out the Didgeridoo, a remarkable instrument as it is very difficult to master and sustain a consistent sound from. Ronin Mane brought the sound of the didgeridoo across each student with an ease and comfortability that brought us into a deeper meditation, a deeper relief from our tensions.
By the end of the session, the other students and myself were in a state of calm and being. The feeling of relief from everyday worries and the pressures of what we were experiencing felt much more manageable as we learned to breathe in the possibilities and breathe out the pressures.

Getting to experience a yoga class with the combined elements of Kundalini, Shamanic Healing, and Sound healing was truly incredible. A very powerful and transformative experience that I would recommend to anybody, beginner or advanced yogi's alike!
