CINDY MASTRY: Namaste. Asanas and Kundalini yoga or postures are done in a little bit different manner than in other styles of yoga. The postures are the same. Sometimes the names are a little bit different, but in Kundalini they do them in sets called krias. These krias were given by Yogi Bhajan, the one who brought Kundalini yoga to the United States from India. They are to be done exactly the way Yogi Bhajan brought them. You are not to mix the krias, they are done in the same order and the same way. Normally, you are doing a krias to maybe cleanse your liver, bring some power to your navel center so you can repel criticism. Maybe you are doing it because there is a form of change you want to have happen in your life so you would do the same kria every day for 40 days in a row. The poses are very dynamic and can be very challenging and they are normally timed. Normally, a pose is done for 3 to 11 minutes and with a breathing such as breath of fire. In beginner classes, you can reduce the time to 1 minute, but my first experience with Kundalini yoga was coming in the camel pose, which is a back bending pose with breath of fire for 11 minutes. So it is very dynamic, it is very challenging, it is a great way to build up some energy, but the poses are done a little bit different in krias done the same way, but there are many, many different krias, and they are going to be timed and usually use the breath.
