i-SKY
The international School of Kundalini Yoga (iSKY) is the longest established Kundalini Yoga training in the UK (1996) and was amongst the first KRI certified Programs across the world.
iSKY is committed to spreading the safe practice and understanding of Yoga and recognise Yogi Bhajan as a modern master of Kundalini Yoga. iSKY seeks to create competent and confident practitioners and instructors of Kundalini Yoga through example, challenge and encouragement; and to inspire those teachers to enthuse a new generation of students through this age-old technology of personal transformation.
i-SKY has evolved from its formation in the U.K. in 1996 into a network of international schools of Kundalini Yoga. I-SKY now offers Kundalini Yoga Therapy training and a variety of related short courses in addition to training yoga teachers in the USA, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Scandinavia as well as the UK and Europe.
