Starting The Integral Kundalini Teacher Training For This Year!
Breath, Mind & Spine Navigation
Breath, Mind & Spine Navigation with Rodo & Mats
Welcome to a special Masterclass in Breath, Mind & Spine Navigation with Rodo Escalante and Mats Onsum. The class will take place at Northern Light Yoga, where we will explore breathwork, the neuroscience behind different breath states, as well as CO2 mastery and mind navigation through breath holds, before grounding with a spinal alignment practice.
Rodo is a profesional deep freediver, and breathwork master in naan yoga for the last 15 years. He is the founder of Alchemy:Rewire - an entirely different kind of mind-body training inspired by his journey with freediving & pranayama exploration, and the neurobiological shifts he experienced through holding his breath.
Mats Onsum is an experienced yoga teacher and practitioner, and a resident teacher at Northern Light Yoga, who is known for his wide range of deep and playful classes - as well as his both poetic and lighthearted style of teaching.
What is Alchemy:Rewire?
Alchemy is a breath and mind navigation technology that leverages elevated levels of CO₂ to access and explore deeper states of awareness. As a full mind-body discipline, Alchemy supports individuals across the neurological spectrum to uncover inner freedom and greater self-mastery.While navigating intermittent levels of elevated CO₂ in the body, Alchemy students experience a phenomenon known as 'the Contraction'. It is the same physiological contraction freedivers feel during an extended breath hold underwater. In this peak state of anxiety, live music is introduced as a vehicle to guide body and mind into a state of surrender.
Alchemy Masterclass
During an in-person masterclass, biotechnologist, philosopher and founder Rodo introduces the Alchemy: Rewire methodology, its scientific background and proven neurobiological benefits.Inspired by Rodo´s lived experience as a master freediver and his return to mind-heart coherence, this entry level class will involve practical core pranayama breath sequences, as well as Breath of Balance, Breath of Yang and Breath of Heart; the fundamentals of the Alchemy breath mind navigation methodology. Each masterclass gives students the tools to progressively move beyond anxiety and access the psycho-physiological insights that arise in the Contraction State.
Who it's for:
- New or experienced breath work enthusiasts
- Individuals looking for tools to de-stress and up level
- People ready to step into their full potential

Tantra Alchemy
Welcome to the Tantra immersion!
We invite you to join us in celebrating life through the universal polarities that make it so rich and dynamic. This weekend, we'll explore how to harness these energies to heal and manifest, and participate in the cosmic dance that is the essence of existence.
Jump Through Jump Back
Join us for an exceptional workshop where you will learn the real essence of jump through and jump back, and how to achieve it with absolute perfection. Brinkela will provide you with some remarkable tips and tricks that will help you glide through your Ashtanga practice effortlessly, as you will be mastering the jump through and jump back. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to elevate your skills and take your practice to the next level!
Jump through and jump backs are an integral part of Ashtanga yoga that links the seated asanas together. They are not only essential for building core strength, strength in arms and wrists, and stamina, but also help reset your spine. Each time you perform a jump back, you will be doing a backbend and a forward bend, along with rounding your back as you jump back to seated. This movement between each side of an asana helps reset your spine.
Additionally, jumpbacks and jump-throughs are part of the vinyasa count that links movement with breath. This meditative quality of the practice enables you to focus your mind and not drift off. Whether or not you can stick to the vinyasa count, focusing on breath, movement, and Drishti (gaze) allows the practice to become a moving meditation.
Lastly, jumping back and jumping through is not an easy task, and at times, it can be frustrating. However, it is a lesson in non-attachment. The focus should be on the breath and Drishti, rather than the ability to jump through. The practice is about doing the work, regardless of whether you can jump through or not.

Organic
Born into the culture from which the Yogic sciences sprang, vigorously trained in the wild, forged within Yoga's native guru-shishya (teacher-student) dynamism-Umā is a living vessel for this synergy of traditions, infused with their riches.
She is sought out by discerning and intrepid practitioners for her decades of experience in Indian Tantra, Yoga and Ayurveda.
Umā has walked a less common path in life. Guided by her own nature far from family, schools and cities, at age 20 she entered into seclusion and a 14-year apprenticeship with her Shaivite guru in his private hermitage.
She has now been researching and educating in the field of Indian Tantra and Yoga for more than 30 years. As an Ayurveda Practitioner with a Diploma of Ayurvedic Sciences (D.A.Sc., USA), and with certification from India as a Panchakarma Specialist, in 2008 Umā conceived and co-founded KUSH, the Ayurvedic Center for Rejuvenation. There she hosted in-depth constitutional assessments and personalised detox/rejuvenation programs that ran under her direction until 2016.
Testimonials
"Umā is a rare gem in the field of spiritual teachers-having lived and earned that which she teaches through her whole life. She has an extraordinary ability to see people and to take into consideration all of what it means to be a human-from the seemingly mundane things like sleeping, eating or moving, and all the way to the transcendental and mystical.
This grants her an unparalleled capacity as a guide on the path. In my personal experience, the combination of having a working system (SATYA) and a qualified teacher that can guide you is as rare as it is precious for taking a big leap in your personal evolution, and I recommend this program to anyone interested in sculpting a rich and meaningful life."
Magnus Jonas Støre, Therapist, Norway

Kundalini Bodywork & Activation with Mariana
Kundalini Bodywork & Activation with Mariana Soares
Welcome to a Kundalini Bodywork group experience!
Kundalini Bodywork is a holistic & integrative therapy that prepares the body for the kundalini to rise and supports those living with an active kundalini.
This therapy is designed to support your healing and transformation, releasing trauma and stuck energy in your chakra system.
This practice changes your body's vibration by working on three levels simultaneously: physical, mental, and emotional, or the sex, mind, and heart.
Kundalini Bodywork is Tantric in nature where surrender and free will both play an equally important role in activating the Kundalini energy.
Navigating life with an active Kundalini brings blessings and challenges, and requires adequate support so that you manifest your life from a place of love and move out of fear, clearing the path for the Kundalini to rise.
Mariana will facilitate this experience in a small gathering of 10 people, through meditation, shaking, breathwork, body de-armouring, and energetic bodywork.
Come with an open heart and mind, and set your intention for the practice, as it brings power to your experience!
Looking forward to supporting you on your journey back to your Self!

Jump through and Jump back
Join us for an exceptional workshop where you will learn the real essence of jump through and jump back, and how to achieve it with absolute perfection. Brinkela will provide you with some remarkable tips and tricks that will help you glide through your Ashtanga practice effortlessly, as you will be mastering the jump through and jump back. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to elevate your skills and take your practice to the next level!
Jump through and jump backs are an integral part of Ashtanga yoga that links the seated asanas together. They are not only essential for building core strength, strength in arms and wrists, and stamina, but also help reset your spine. Each time you perform a jump back, you will be doing a backbend and a forward bend, along with rounding your back as you jump back to seated. This movement between each side of an asana helps reset your spine.
Additionally, jumpbacks and jump-throughs are part of the vinyasa count that links movement with breath. This meditative quality of the practice enables you to focus your mind and not drift off. Whether or not you can stick to the vinyasa count, focusing on breath, movement, and Drishti (gaze) allows the practice to become a moving meditation.
Lastly, jumping back and jumping through is not an easy task, and at times, it can be frustrating. However, it is a lesson in non-attachment. The focus should be on the breath and Drishti, rather than the ability to jump through. The practice is about doing the work, regardless of whether you can jump through or not.

Breathwork Immersions
This is Breathwork Immersions - a breath centered healing program running over three consecutive weeks.
Breathwork is a remarkable modality - yielding what is often described as a miraculous results of healing and self discovery. What makes it remarkable is that this is made possible by your own breath - this most basic of biological functions. It is truly a window into the wonder of what our system is capable of when given the allowance.
Offered in this format Breathwork becomes an opportunity for a leap in your evolution. A place for purposeful processing of your life with all its intricacies. A safe container for familiarization with the dormant powers of the breath and the intelligence of the awakened body. Three weeks of prioritized self care - a chance to refresh your aim towards the life of deeper purpose you know is possible.
These immersions are designed to support you in receiving the full range of benefits this practice gives - those who sprout instantly during the breathing, and those who grow slowly over time as the new-found insights are integrated into your everyday life. The intention of offering Breathwork in this way is to create an environment where people with a serious appetite for healing, transformation and self growth can be supported in their endeavour. In these circles any perceived challenges or possibilities are valid and welcomed. The immersions are designed to provide for both curious newcomers and experienced breathers.
These programs are led by Magnus Jonas, a dedicated student of the breath. Magnus has studied different sciences of self-discovery for over a decade and has taught Breathwork for 5 years. The style of Breathwork offered is known to be softer and deeper then most Breathwork modalities, with a high focus on allowing the innate genius of each person to be awakened and guide the way. Magnus is a student of classical Tantra, Ayurveda, Yoga, and Craniosacral Therapy - modalities that amplify, support, and make functional as a way of being, the results of Breathwork.
Dates for this installment are:
2nd, 9th and 16th of April.
On all dates, the program runs from 18:00 - 21:00.

Before the Kirtan we will be offering Puja - a traditional Vedic ritual for purification and blessings to prepare our spirits before we begin the evening. You are welcome to come take part in the Puja, or arrive just for the Kirtan.
All program this evening will be easy to follow, and no prior experience or skill is needed.

SpaceBreath with Mats Onsum and Jakob Horvat
SpaceBreath with Mats Onsum and Jakob Horvat
Welcome to SpaceBreath with Mats Onsum and Jakob Horvat - a journey into the depths of yourself, and the perfect beginning into a new week.
We gather to explore the magic and potential of the breath through various exercises, from yogic pranayama to the Wim Hof method, to more intense breathwork like holotropic, programming the nervous system to de-stress, lead us out of rumination and into deep relaxation.
The breathing is accompanied by a playful and deep musical landscape, occasionally sprinkled with poetry. Mats and Jakob will lead and assist the breathing exercises throughout the journey with the aim of giving you a cosmic experience while staying grounded in the body.
Let's come together to increase well-being and sail into the new week with more presence, connection and awareness.

Mats teaches yoga and breath for several yoga centers and companies in and outside Oslo, which he has been doing full-time since 2016. He has also written poetry since he was a child and songs since his teenage years, and confidently holds space as a result of the hundreds of concerts and thousands of yoga sessions on his repertoire.
Jakob Horvat
Jakob is an Oslo based men's coach, breathwork facilitator, meditation teacher and passionate student of life. Born, raised and rooted in Austria, Jakob discovered breathwork as a powerful healing and guiding modality in 2019, when he received his guidance to pursue a path as a facilitator and coach in a breathwork session in Vienna. Ever since he has been fascinated by our breath's capacity to transform limiting beliefs, release stuck energy in the body and connect us with a higher truth of life. Living a nomad lifestyle since 2020, he has been building his coaching business while living in countries like Costa Rica, Bali, Norway and Austria. He's been trained in Biodynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release System, loves the ocean, the forest and a good cup of cappuccino.
Program:
We begin with a grounding meditation and some exercises to connect with the space and each other, followed by yogic pranayama (kapalbhati) to prepare the body and mind for the more intense breathing exercises. We then move into a remix of the Wim Hof method before launching the spaceship further out and deeper in through more intense breathwork a la holotropic breath, before returning safely back to Earth to decompress.
The event will take place at Northern Light Yoga in Oslo. Even though the studio is well-equipped, it may be wise to bring a scarf or blanket, as well as warm clothes, for extra comfort.
To ensure that everyone gets the support they need and to create a safe atmosphere, we always ensure to have at least one facilitator or assistant for every 20 participants. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities.
Please note that we start at 18:00 and finish at 20:30. Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to ensure a smooth start. Also, limit food intake, especially heavy meals, for about 3 hours before the event starts.

Ecstatic Serpent DanceWomb Celebration
Ecstatic Serpent Dance - Womb Celebration
Welcome to a journey of deep transformation and connection to our most sacred, intimate space: the womb. This is the temple of vital energy for creation. The force within, needed to bring our dreams into reality, our motivation, will to create, drive and passion for life.
This workshop will guide you in deep connection, awakening and transmuting of the Sacred energy, so that you can access or unlock more of this Life Force into every day life.
We will begin with a series of dedicated Kundalini Yoga Kriyas, followed by a deep meditation.
If any blockages or stuck energy arise, you will be guided to release it.
Next, we will raise this energy and transmute it to all parts of the body, through a guided journey of music and dance. This is where you can allow yourself to feel free and express in whichever way it feels good.
The music selection is carefully curated and will take you on a journey where the hips will want to move by themselves. There is a remembrance in all of us, on how the organic sounds of drums and percussion, awaken the feet, hips and navel. You can expect mystic, tribal and organic percussion to prevail through out the set. It is therefore encouraging to bring a scarf to tie around the hips, in a belly dance style. This is to remain connected to our womb though out the dancing.
The workshop is intended to help you connect, release and engage with yourself in a deep but liberating, fun way.
Looking forward to dance with all of you!
