INNER JOURNEY

Ceremonial work supports you to fully integrate the offerings, empowering each stage of our journey around the sun and preparing you for the next phase.

 

Giving depth and meaning to our life experiences

DISCOVER YOUR MEDICINE

Become your own Space Keeper

Committing to this training means you will commit to your healing, to your own process, discovering your unique medicine and how to apply it to your daily life. In other words once you have completed the wheel you will have a toolbox filled with knowledge and experience that allows you to be the space keeper of your own growth and transformation.

WORKING WITH THE FOUR DIRECTIONS

Journey around the Sun

The training is presented in four modules that deeply explore all there is to learn and experience linked to the four directions of the medicine wheel. Throughout the year you will create your own healing mandala, your personal medicine wheel. We empower each stage with relevant ceremonies to give depth and meaning to our life experiences. 

 

MODULE 1 - WINTER

22 - 26 JAN 2025 (5 DAYS)

Coming Home in your Body

This module takes place in Winter and we dive deeply within to reconnect to our inner wisdom and dedicate time to Self care, healing and wellbeing. You get to know the five elements & learn about the 12 main Meridians. You will experientially & theoretically understand how to work with Asanas to help restore balance and proper energy flow within the body mind system.⁠

 

MODULE 2 - SPRING

9 - 13 APRIL 2025 (5 DAYS)

Growing in Consciousness

This gathering is held in Spring and we become conscious of deep imprints, allow ourselves to change perspectives and create space for new beginnings. You will research the 7 Chakras and their related emotional, psychological and physical themes and experience how yoga can support us to grow and evolve in consciousness. ⁠

 

MODULE 3 - SUMMER

4 - 7 SEPT 2025 (4 DAYS)

Inner Strength & Purification

This gathering is held in Summer and we bring in a healthy dose of discipline to kindle the flames of the spiritual fire within us for purification and transformation.

MODULE 4 - AUTUMN

20 - 23 NOV 2025 (4 DAYS)

Voice as Medicine

This gathering is held in Fall and we release what no longer serves us, liberate our hearts, let our emotions flow so that we may become vessels of a powerful presence working through us. In this last module we focus on how and why Mantras are like powerful formulas or codes that help us to change our inner vibration. You will also learn techniques that open your Voice to be your medicine.

Marieke

After practicing Hatha Yoga for 10 years I switched to Kundalini in 2011 and I am teaching on a daily basis ever since. My classes always are a deepening experience beyond the comfort zone, to discover new dimensions of ‘being’. Self ­observation is playing a key role throughout the practice towards self­ discovery. Teaching Kundalini Yoga is the love of my life and I am passionate about sharing this technology to inspire people on their spiritual journey. Out of this passion Tim and I founded the online Kundalini Yoga School in 2016.

Tim

Tim

An early fascination for the mind made me choose to study Psychology at the University of Amsterdam. Now I integrate the teachings of Kundalini Yoga with Psychology. and love sharing yogic knowledge via the online Kundalini Yoga School. Besides Kundalini Yoga classes and private consultations with individuals, I also lead journeys & retreats at inspiring locations worldwide. I am grateful guiding students to establish themselves in their hearts, towards a life filled with compassion and kindness.
