Xenia (Beant Kaur)

A friend first introduced Xenia to Kundalini Yoga in 1998 when all she was looking for was some form of physical activity for her stiff and inactive body. Unable to formulate an opinion after taking her first class, she took another class, and then another, and another. She soon discovered benefits beyond any expectations she ever had. Not only did she get the exercise she sought, but she discovered the chronic pain she had for fourteen years began to diminish and then disappeared altogether. In her life, she found calmness and patience in situations that normally frustrated her, tolerance where she was used to feeling anger, and focus and efficiency in the midst of harried deadlines. Because of Kundalini Yoga, Xenia discovered an ease and grace in life that she had never experienced before.

Through Yoga Yoga’s Kundalini Teacher Training Program, Xenia became a certified Kundalini Yoga instructor in 2004 so she could help bring the benefits of Kundalini Yoga to as many people as possible looking for a better quality of life. Xenia was officially accepted into the Aquarian Teacher Academy in June 2009 and is currently an intern to Mehtab in the Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training Program at Yoga Yoga, assisting future teachers on their individual paths. Xenia intends to complete her Level II certification as Practitioner in the summer of 2010.

With an open heart, Xenia brings to her classes a vitality and understanding of everyday situations, as well as emphasizing the breath and its connection to the teacher within.
