I have been going to Divine Yoga for about a year, and I LOVE it! The teachers are first class, the students arent judgmental, the studio is beautiful and easy to access, and the prices are reasonable. Each class has a different feel depending on the instructor: Angela (Monday/ Wednesday evenings) is awesome! Her classes are a bit more physical than the others, and she ends each class with an incredible gong meditation. She has a very serene presence, and she does a really good job describing the poses and the benefits we can expect from them. Shes also great about describing how to modify each pose in case you cant hold it for the entire time. And most of the poses are done with your eyes closed, so no one is going to judge you if you cant do a pose. Angela truly is a gifted teacher. Jules (Tuesday/ Thursday evenings) focuses a bit more on breathing and stretching. I really enjoy her classes for relaxation after a hard day at work. If youre apprehensive about your physical fitness or ability to do yoga, Jules classes are a great place to start. Amrit (Saturday/ Sunday mornings) focuses more on the spiritual and healing aspect of kundalini yoga. Her classes usually run closer to 1.5 hours, and I like that she never rushes anything-- perfect for a weekend morning. Amrits classes generally include more breath exercises the the other instructors, and after going to her classes regularly for a few weeks, I really did notice my belly getting flatter. She has a wealth of knowledge about kundalini yoga, the benefits of a eating right, and leading a spiritual life, and she always seems happy to share her insight with us. Amrit really makes her classes fun. A huge benefit of going to Divine Yoga is being able to participate in all the studios extra offerings: Group Sadhanas, workshops, potluck dinners, and more. In a nice way, Divine Yoga has a very comfortable atmosphere-- almost like were all family. If you try Divine Yoga, I think you will really like it. - Beth Watkins

To paraphrase Yogi Bhajan "Kundalini Yoga is not a religion, not a fad, and not a cult. It is a practice of experience of a persons own excellence." Find your own excellence with Divine Yoga in a welcoming, safe, and professional environment. And if you want to master Kundalini Yoga--teach it--become KRI certified through the Divine Yoga teacher training programs! After only three yoga classes I signed up for Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training Level I to find out more about this ancient quantum technology and science. I learned that specific breathing techniques, kriyas, mantras, meditations, and lifestyle changes would profoundly improve my physical, emotional (mind), and spiritual bodies! Now, through my own yoga practise and by attending classes at Divine Yoga my health (strength, flexibility, diet), relationship with myself (internal dialogue), and my ability to manage stress (to trust that no matter what happens I will be OK) have been improved exponentially. Existence is speeding-up and the pressure of keeping up can be exhausting and sometimes overwhelming. Mhan Rishi Singh Khalsa and Amrit Kaur Khalsa are Teachers who go above and beyond providing First Class classes--they truly "teach"--I highly recommend Divine Yoga! By the way, the studio is near The Quarry and easy to find!

Divine Yoga is truly a San Antonio hidden treasure. Upon the first step you take on to the property you will be met with a beautiful landscape and the light sent of incents wafting through the air. From time to time you may be lucky enough to find the welcoming owners of the studio sitting on the front porch swing discussing life through a spiritual/yogic lens. The studio itself has a natural organic feel that is conducive to the spiritual practice of yoga. The instructors of the classes are passionate, knowledgable, and believe completely in the technology of Kundalini yoga. Each class is designed to work on balancing your chakra energy as a means to balance your everyday life. All of the instructors take the time to explain how each kriya, breath work, and meditation is effecting your body, mind, and spirit. You will be in for a treat if you decide to attend a class that features a gong meditation. It has the potential to clear away thoughts and bring your focus inward. I feel so fortunate to have found this amazingly special place. If you are looking for a yoga studio that centers around balancing your body, mind, and spirit this is the place for you. Sat Nam.

I have attended Divine Yoga for 20 days now. Its my first time trying yoga and I find the setting at Divine Yoga very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. I like the environment very much; peaceful, serene, clean. Ive experienced each of the instructors and am impressed with their knowledge of yoga. They take time to explain the benefits of each position along with the modifications for those of us less flexible...at the moment. I enjoy going to the classes, am getting stronger and more flexible and am meeting new people all the time. The gong is a special touch I was not familiar with when looking up other yoga classes. It really adds to the experience! I also enjoy the yogi tea, fruit and cookies the instructors share with us students, too! A very nice, personable touch. I highly recommend Divine Yoga as a place for you to take yoga classes. Im hooked and dont plan on going anywhere else.

Love the classes. This style of yoga I believe is most effective to dissolve emotional trauma and gently and greatly strengthen the body over time without risk of injury. This has been my experience anyway, having tried almost every form of yoga. Consistent practice will literally change how you perceive yourself and how resilient your body is to stress as well as giving you a greater level of physical agility and stamina. Much of it appears like regular yoga, and much of it is breathing practices, and some exercises can seem strange at first. Together each class forms a tapestry that if consistently done will incrementally strengthen your tendons, muscles, posture and eventually rewire how you use your brain to be calm in any situation.

From the moment I stepped through the doors of this yoga studio, I felt at peace and at home. I knew nothing about yoga, much less Kundalini Yoga, but that didnt make any difference. No matter what your level of experience, you can take these classes! Here you will find experienced instructors - all with different styles, but all equally knowledgeable. Amrit, Jules and Ana are the best!! I will soon begin my fifth month of Kundalini Yoga, and I have never felt stronger, more healthy and at peace, and I am working my way up to an every day practice. As a life-long avoider of exercise, I consider this quite a milestone. I highly recommend Divine Yoga to anyone who wants to improve their body, their mind, their life. Kundalini Yoga rules!!!!

Divine Yoga is a great place to practice Kundalini yoga, a different form than youll find in typical exercise classes (Hatha, Vinyasa, etc.}. While you will still get a good workout, theres more of a focus on meditation and breath work. Id been doing other forms of yoga for quite some time, and found Kundalini to be refreshingly new and different, with benefits that linger long after the class is over. The atmosphere of the studio is peaceful and relaxed, and the instructors are welcoming, friendly and knowledgable. My experience there has been entirely positive. Highly recommended.

I am so excited to tell other people about my experience with Divine Yoga! I am a busy type A personality so kundalini yoga has truly changed my life. I am now a much calmer person and I can not wait to get to a kundalini class everyday! My energy level has increased so much. I played 3 sets of tennis this morning and was not even tired, when the other 3 gals(much younger than I) were complaining about being exhausted! Also, my mental clarity has greatly increased, I am a more focused person, thanks to kundalini yoga. I hope to always have Divine Yoga in my daily life!
