Kundalini yoga, also known as the yoga of awareness, uncoils the infinite creative potential within.
Through a combination of dynamic postures, exercises, breath, mantra(sound) and meditation, each system of the body (muscular, glandular, digestive, circulatory) is stimulated, balanced and integrated to enhance our experience and abundance as more conscious human beings while sustaining us in releasing blockages caused by negative attitudes or feelings.  We tap into the kundalini energy within us, that dormant energy that lies at the base of the spine, which when activated, opens the body, cleanses the mind, uplifts the spirit and connects us with our higher consciousness, our boundlessness.
Daphna Dor has been teaching Kundalini Yoga both in her home city of New York, and in Bali, since 1995.  Not long after discovering her love for and commitment to the practice of hatha yoga while traveling in India in the early 1990’s, she came across a studio in New York offering kundalini yoga classes.  She naturally transitioned over from her hatha yoga practice and became a certified Kundalini teacher in 1994.  Daphna has had the privilege of studying under teachers such as Ravi Singh (known as “the teachers’ teacher”) and Yogi Bhajan, the late master of the yoga.  While embarking on her path as a Kundalini practitioner and teacher Daphna was also drawn to the modality of yoga therapy and became a certified Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist.  Through personalized sessions of yoga therapy she gently assists the exploration of one’s being, creating sacred space for the release of blockages in the bodymind (opening the mind and spirit through the release of physical holdings and vice versa).
Daphna brings to her kundalini yoga sessions a deep respect for, and incorporation of, the body alignment of hatha yoga traditions while embracing with energy and joy the path of higher consciousness of Kundalini Yoga.

She has been called a Diva way before she was a grown woman. At the same time people called her special. It was her internal light shining. She created 3 dimensional Art, so refined, that she could hardly understand the work herself. It was her internal soul creating. She has studied Drama therapy never knowing why she could read beyond the theoretical that had been handed in her studies. She was a model for 10 years but it wasn’t her external beauty that struck people, but the power of the inner light.

“I am a light worker that has come a long way out of the dark.
I am a clear voyant yet nothing more than a connector between others and the other side and god.
I am a drama therapist gone practical dramatically spiritual.
I am nobody and everybody in one.
I am here for you.”
