Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini Yoga

Kundalini yoga is a physical and meditative discipline, comprising a set of techniques that use the mind, senses and body to create a communication between "mind" and "body". Kundalini yoga focuses on psycho-spiritual growth and the body's potential for maturation, giving special consideration to the role of the spine and the endocrine system in the understanding of yogic awakening (Sovatsky, 1998). Kundalini Yoga concentrates on chakras in the body in order to generate a spiritual power, which is known as kundalini. Kundalini is a concentrated form of prana or life force, lying dormant in our bodies. It is conceptualized as a coiled up serpent (literally, 'kundalini' in Sanskrit is 'That which is coiled.' (Sanskrit kund, "to burn"; kunda, "to coil or to spiral"). The serpent is considered to be female is supposed to be coiled up three and a half times, with it's mouth engulfing the base of the Sushumna.

I'm a HUGE fan of Kundalini yoga, after trying tens of other yoga styles (including yoga schools in India) I feel this one is as close to the true essence of yoga as you can get!
