Message from Jugat Guru Singh Khalsa
It is the end of another year, which has gone incredibly fast and has been incredibly impactful. It has brought so many changes and challenges, and I hope so much joy and inspiration, along with projections for your future—forward to be successful, happy, healthy, and holy, using and applying the teachings of Kundalini Yoga, and sharing this technology wherever you may be. Thank you!
Gratitude message from KRI team
As we wrap up the year, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each trainer in the ATA. Your commitment and service in fulfilling the mission of sharing the teachings of Kundalini Yoga is truly inspiring! We are grateful to be part of this worldwide community, and look forward to another year together.
Wishing you a joyful and prosperous New Year!In gratitude, KRI team
In Loving memory of Gurudatta Singh
It is with great sadness that we share that our dear brother Gurudatta Singh Khalsa passed away on November 28th. Gurudatta was a kind, gentle soul supporting all of us in the role of KRI Customer Service agent for almost 20 years. We send loving prayers for his journey back “home”, and thoughts and blessings to all his family and friends. If you feel inspired, please share a memory, story or heartfelt message on THIS KUDO BOARD, which will be delivered to his wife, in Española, NM.

Global Distributors – Attention Trainers outside the USA and Canada
It has been a long-standing KRI policy for trainers outside the USA and Canada to purchase their Teacher Training materials from a local distributor. When signing a KRI contract for a Level One and/or Level Two program, you agree to get your materials either from KRI (when your programs are in the US or Canada) or from a local distributor. This is a gentle reminder that wherever and whenever there is a local distributor, which often can also be the National Teachers’ Association, please make sure to order your materials from them. In addition to it being cheaper and easier, it strengthens the local community. Please keep in mind that you don’t need to be a member of the local National Teachers Association to be able to order your needed materials from them. Here is the link to find your Local Distributor.
Level Three
2024 was another great year for Level 3! We continue to grow and flourish around the globe. We had three Melas this year: an online Spanish/Portuguese Mela, Online Global English Mela, and one in person Mela in China. Are you looking to join Level 3 in 2025? Click here to see the L3 calendar
