In yoga, the deepest pulse of life in the body is known as the kundalini, a buzz current of neurological force that flows through the spine and throughout the body. But what is kundalini and how does it manifest in the body?
This course explores the colorful, poetic and artistic descriptions of kundalini within the yoga tradition while reimagining kundalini through the eyes of contemporary neuroscience. We use the yoga practice of asana, pranayama, yoga nidra, and meditation to enliven the deepest life force of the body. We will see how the force (shakti) of kundalini flows within the central nervous system and as awareness itself. This force bears close resemblance to the reptilian brain and brainstem. Through practice and study, we will see how breath, vibration, sound, and visualization activate this most primal vitality in the body.

Prajna Yoga: Tias & Surya Little
In Sanskrit, the word Prajna means insight, deep understanding, and mindfulness. It suggests a dynamic embodied wisdom that permeates every cell and every tissue in the body. Prajna Yoga is a profound journey inward.
We believe that yoga is a pathway that begins in the outer layers of the body and mind and navigates inward to the mystical, subtle, and rarely seen interior. We combine meditative practice with the power and grace of asana training. In a process that requires sensitivity and inner listening, we explore the sheaths of connective tissue, muscle, and bone in order to bring about greater wakefulness, luminosity, and space within.
