Level Two
Level Two is open to KRI Level One Certified Instructors. The 300-hour/2-year certification program consists of five 65-hour modules and fulfills the Yoga Alliance 500-hour requirement. Graduates of Level Two earn the title of Certified Practitioner of Kundalini Yoga.
Before your Level One Certification you thirsted for a deeper understanding of the yoga. In Level Two you acknowledge on a heart level that it is no longer sufficient for you to just have the skills and fulfill the basic duties of an instructor. To reach the next level means assessing where you are in your commitment to authenticity, and offering yourself up to transformation. This has never been a solo journey, and Level Two is no exception.
You can choose to take 1 course or all of them in any order as you are drawn to. Each course is 65 hours x 6 days face to face.
Building on the foundation of Level One, Level Two Teacher Training is about personal transformation and deepening the core capacities, character and consciousness of a Kundalini Yoga Teacher.

Conscious Communication
Uplift and penetrate through the power of the word
Course Summary
What do we mean by communication? The definition of communication is a practice that creates a “common notion” with another person or object of attention…At what level do we communicate? Did you ever learn that your existence is your communication? Your projection is your relationship? You are the power? But life is often sour. There is no happiness, because your communication has no purpose of Self. You communicate to impress someone. You don’t communicate to relate you to someone. That’s why you suffer now. You don’t communicate consciously. —Yogi Bhajan
Key Topics
- Recognize and contrast conscious communication with other types of communication.
- The role of silence and shuniya in communication.
- The art of deep listening—sunni-ai.
- Mastering the Fifth Chakra.
- Recognizing your shadow and overcoming your blocks through applied consciousness.
- Communicating with the Infinite and the nature of prayer.
Study with senior Trainers.
Use your communication skills to create a common notion with others—even those you disagree with. Communicate your whole Self, with awareness, kindness and fearlessness. Listen—don’t just hear. Elevate your communication to the power of creative dialogue so that life becomes a flow, in harmony with the Infinite.
Course Affirmation
I have integrated conscious communication into all areas of my life. My communication uplifts others to their own consciousness. I represent my whole self directly.

I commit to refine my meditative capacity. I invite my mind into my conscious presence, investigate its nature, and learn to master it so that it serves my consciousness and my soul. I will follow the road map laid out by Yogi Bhajan to recognize and develop the many parts of my mind. I integrate and apply the functional minds to my daily habits and behaviors so that I develop a clear, intuitive, and effective mind.

My life blossoms with unlimited blessings.
