Yogi Bhajan, Master of Kundalini Yoga,arrived in the United States in 1969 with astated mission: "I have come to createTeachers, not to gather disciples”.

Since then he has travelled internationally teaching Kundalini Yoga, the Yoga of Awareness. In

1969 Yogi Bhajan founded 3HO — the Happy, Healthy, Holy organization, based on his first

principle "Happiness is your birthright." Through 3HO and the Kundalini Research Institute (KRI),

Yogi Bhajan trained thousands of Kundalini Yoga Teachers. In 1994, 3HO founded the

International Kundalini Yoga Teachers Association, (IKYTA), to further spread these priceless

teachings through the united efforts of Kundalini Yoga teachers worldwide.

KUNDALINI YOGA LEVEL ONE TEACHER TRAINING COURSE WITH AJAI ALAI AWAKENING (AAA)INTERNATIONAL KUNDALINI YOGA SCHOOL WWW.3AAA.ASIA/LEVEL-1/TRAINING-INFORMATION

COURSE GOALS Understand the fundamental nature, technologies and concepts of Kundalini Yoga

Have a transformational experience through the practice of these teachings

Develop the skills, confidence and consciousness required to teach Kundalini Yoga

Develop a lifestyle of consciousness

Experience a sense of community with other participants, local teachers and 3HO worldwide

Develop a link to the Golden Chain through the teaching of the master -Yogi Bhajan.

THE TRAININGThe Level 1 program is designed to deepen your knowledge and experience about yoga; provid-ing you the theory, practice and experience needed to integrate the yoga lifestyle into your dailylife and become a well trained and professional teacher.

The training is structured in 3 modules that we call "Foundation", "The Self" and "5 Elements".

Each module lasts 6 to 8 days continuous or separated in periods of 2-3 days. The program

integrates theory, lectures, discussions, study groups, games and of course a lot of practice of

Kriyas and Meditations.

This intensive program is a profound experience that may become a reference for the rest of yourlife. Through this experience you will be able to develop a sense of self-observation and connectto the source of wisdom within you.

AAA is a school of life and programs are designed to help students transform and reach a higher

level of consciousness. We strive to give students what they need rather that what they want. The

difference is between the ego (who wants) and the soul (who needs). Students who have done

the teacher training with us learn to love themselves, to serve others, to recognize their patterns

and change them. They are happier, more relaxed, more loving and tolerant, and can help their

family to do the same.

Our way of teaching is creative, alive (we laugh a lot!) and adapted to the participants and their

needs. You will be invited to participate actively all along the training. During the training

(between the modules), you will be part of study groups. These meetings will give you an

opportunity to share your experience, reflect and integrate your process. It is also a place to apply

the teachings at the level of the community, by being authentic in a group, by learning how to

listen and communicate, and by being inspired by others.
