Shri Kali Ashram teaches that Yoga is a science, not a sport or a game. Yoga by its nature never teaches competition. Competition means that one is always comparing and contrasting to external measures. Yoga instills integration, enrichment and incomparable inner strength. With these qualities, yogis master life. Mastery gives fulfillment and fulfillment stops one from dependence on the external.

Our 500 hour course is structured to give students the best possible preparation for their professional teaching career. It is also an excellent Yoga Intensive for experienced yogis looking to go deeper into the practical and theoretical aspects of yoga.

This course compares and contrasts traditional and modern practices of yoga. It is a year's worth of training, compressed into two / three months to save students' learning time.
In two / three months, our students become proficient in sixty āsanas. We focus on how to practice and teach each āsana.

Our 200 hour course is structured to give students a solid grounding from which to start their professional teaching career. It is also an excellent Yoga Intensive for experienced yogis looking to improve their āsana practice. We focus on how to learn and teach each āsana from a traditional perspective.

We teach this course in the minimum time of four weeks but still we focus on quality, stress-free learning. Stress reduces the ability to stretch, and creates lacerations in the muscle strands, thereby reducing the quality of the muscles and the career of the yogi. Muscle cells also remember stress which can become hypertension.

At Shri Kali Ashram one learns the whole science of Tantra, both the physical and spiritual. We train you to achieve skill in āsanas, prāṇāyāma, bandhas, kriyas, mudrās, and kuṇḍalinī (sexual practice). We also teach the ideology, philosophy and practices of Tantra including mantras and ritual. We contrast New Age and Traditional teachings so that our students understand the value of Traditional Tantra and Yoga. Our initiation brings one to actually become a Tantric. With this knowledge, one can realistically represent as a Tantric or a Yogi and be a qualified professional teacher. It can also be regarded as an intensive course to step out of your everyday life and contemplate on life's broader purpose in our relaxed environment. We make Monism (Advaita) our culture of life.
