“I’ve tried most forms of yoga and I’ve been consistent with my practice for around 6 years. However, when I tried Kundalini with Kathryn for the first time I felt an instant connection to the practice and it almost felt like it was my first time trying yoga. I immediately signed up for the Kundalini workshop the next day to try and better understand why I felt so different and energised after a single class. The meditations and movements within the workshop combined with the conversations we had really helped me reconnect with my body and my breathe. Having suffered with hormonal imbalances, I feel like Kundalini is an amazing way to find balance and reset; I will definitely explore this practice further and continue attending Kathryn’s classes and workshops in the future.”

“As I was recovering from a difficult break-up, I had a 1:1 with Kathryn. I've tried to have a weekly practice, however I didn't always manage to go to the studio and I was keen to have a customized set that I can practice regularly. After hearing my story, Kathryn recommended this heart kriya followed by a mantra/meditation (about 45 min all in all). I remember she mentioned it would be good for me to do it for 40 days. I didn't know what to expect in the beginning ... I just went for it. A few days in, I started feeling the love and compassion....to the extent that I was like a gigantic heart walking in the streets. I was smiling to everyone, my heart was filled with love and I became grateful - for everything I had in my life. You may have heard this a lot, but when you genuinely feel it...it's very special. Magic 💫 happened for me when I shifted from grief and resentment. I could feel day by day the anger fading away and my thoughts were less and less intense. I got to understand that in any moment of our life, we do our best. And when things don't unfold the way we wanted, its because they couldn't otherwise. When you genuinely believe that, you become at peace with life. You get into to the flow and alignment. Thank you Kathryn for your guidance.”

“When I discovered Kundalini Yoga, I wanted to learn more about the Chakras that are key to the Kundalini practice. Lucky enough I found out about the Chakra Cleanse workshops lead by Kathryn McCusker, it was the perfect opportunity! Each workshop is focused on one or two of the 7 main Chakras and gives clarity on how that Chakra works on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. To experience a chakra through a specific kriya and with the right meditations is a great way to understand its system and how the Chakras are related. Kathryn is an inspiring and encouraging teacher. Her classes are full of joy and good vibes and I hope to be able to experience many more.

Rose, London

“I have been blessed with Kathryn as my teacher for 5 years now. Kathryn continues to create an atmosphere in her classes that allows me to truly be myself. Her gentle and disciplined approach to teaching allows me to be present with whatever feelings, emotions and experiences arise in the class, and in her presence I can learn from them.
Kathryn leads by example honouring the way of the peaceful warrior, she shines with dignity and modesty as do all those lit by the inner light of Kundalini yoga.Yogi Bhajan would be proud of her. Sat Nam.”

Melissa, London

“I signed up for the throat chakra workshop at House of Wisdom with Kathryn and got so much from it I signed up for the next one for the Ajna and crown chakra. I completed my teachers training in 2021 with Kathryn and I really enjoy her classes and the way she teaches. I felt the effects of both workshops throughout the following days, and I loved being in the energy of a group again. I would highly recommend this workshop.”

Karim, London

“Kundalini yoga, known as the yoga of awareness, has been one of my lifesavers in this unprecedented period we are all experiencing. Through a series of breath work and posture sequences, It helps me connect with the power within to regulate my emotions and feelings. It has shown me that we all have the power within to change our emotions and our feelings -  to feel safe. No matter what emotions I bring to class, I always finish Kathryn's class feeling at peace; a sense of real calm and acceptance coupled with a belief that all is and will be ok. Kathryn's classes are intense and have a strong impact that creates a positive sense of self. I look forward to her classes every time.”

Susie, London

“I have been blessed for almost 6 years being taught by this wonderful Kundalini Angel, Kathryn. I fell into Kundalini Yoga by mistake, but obviously there were other plans being made for me. I went to take another yoga class one evening which had been cancelled, so a Kundalini Yoga class was suggested, I had never heard of Kundalini.
For me it was the experience of my soul being touched by something amazing and all I knew was that a path was being sent to me to follow. Kathryn, you have had a profound effect on me, your teaching has constant insight, warmth and spiritual dedication and you gave me undying support and encouragement, enabling me to qualify as a Kundalini Teacher. Being blessed with you as my teacher over these last few years, I have no doubt, I would not have gathered the courage to embark on my Teacher Training journey. Your effect on me has been profound. May you be given many blessings and a thousand thanks for just simply being you.”

Aymeric, London

“Going to Kundalini lessons brought something that was really missing in my life.Taking some time and trying to relax. During the first lessons I was impressed by Kathryn’s songs and her musical choices. I loved the music and the atmosphere.Then I decided to go further and Kathryn taught me how to breathe. I really like her energy, kindness and capability to understand what I feel and what I need. I am convinced now that I will be able to improve my life, and I definitely recommend Kundalini yoga with Kathryn.”

“‘Last week, I had my first experience in Kundalini Yoga and I loved it. Kundalini Yoga has been whispering in my hears since long time already and the Universe did the rest giving to me this opportunity to meet Kathryn and to experience a workshop on the detox of colon and spleen. Kathryn is very welcoming and knowledgeable and made everything extremely easy even for me that I’m a beginner on this practice giving us the space to interact with all of us on our experiences, questions and suggestions.Being a student on Nutrition coaching, I found the workshop useful for my future work with clients and for my personal knowledge and growth. I will definitely sign up for the next workshop and add what I learnt to my daily routine. I’m so grateful to my friend who brought me there, the amazing ladies that I met at the workshop and to our amazing teacher. Thank you Kathryn!’

Samantha, London

“Fortunately I discovered Kathryn’s kundalini classes six months before the Corona crisis and her online sessions have sustained me through the recent challenges of lockdown.

Kathryn’s calming voice, gentle and inviting nature as well as her wisdom of tapping into blocked energy fields has brought me much inner peace and strength and helped dissipate panic and frustration these past few months.

I book her online classes in the knowledge that they will facilitate both an emotional release and an uplifting and supportive experience.”

Rhonda, France

“I was introduced to Kathryn a little over 4 years ago at a Kundalini Yoga retreat that she was holding in Spain. I had taken a few Kundalini classes in the States many years before and loved Kundalini yoga but never followed up with it after moving to Europe. After finishing the week retreat with Kathryn my entire life changed.That was the starting of a whole new awareness of myself (self) and the ability to tune into the ‘I AM’. She held morning and afternoon classes and lead us to a deeper understanding of our life’s purpose through Kundalini kriyas. I walked away from that retreat never looking back on the past and using what we learned to stay in the present and to attain my true essence. Since then I have completed the KRI level 1 Teacher’s training and have received many blessings in my life. Kathryn is an amazing teacher and leader of Kundalini, she is an example of the true teachings and meaning of ‘Wahe Guru’. Thank you Kathryn for opening my life to Kundalini and the ability of self LOVE.”

Eva-Maria, Austria

Kathryn was my first contact after relocation to London. It was like coming home as I was familiar with Kundalini whilst this big buzzing city of London was new for me. Kathryn offered me a kind of island to rest, to catch my breath, to strengthen me in choosing carefully the kriyas, was paying attention to all my questions and supported me whenever I needed her.
She is such a delicate, strong female teacher, like a Lioness clearing the path without making too much noise about all that, keeping her students safe and secure. Like a Lioness she disappears all of a sudden into the big jungle of the world to keep you going on your own, living your potency which she helped to build up, coming back, whenever there is a necessity.

“Kathryn works with purpose and love. Thanks to her I found the perfect and most harmonious balance between physical well-being and expansion of awareness. Kathryn constantly and wholeheartedly focuses on healing imbalances by relaxing or strengthening our physical or emotional planes. She also uses chants to accompany Kundalini Yoga and as an opera singer the combination of these two vocations are unique. Kundalini yoga has been an amazing discovery and self-transformation for me thanks to Kathryn’s teachings.” Alexandra, London

Kishore and Manju, London

“My wife and I met Kathryn recently and have been taking private Kundalini yoga classes with her every week ever since. We are delighted with the results, already our positive energy levels have increased significantly thanks to Kathryn’s method of teaching and we feel more energised than we have done in years. We each have our own way of coping with the every day stresses of life, however for us, Kundalini Yoga has helped restore a natural balance in our world and tap into a reservoir of energy and well-being that we have never felt before. Kathryn is a kind and patient teacher, her aura of wisdom and inner tranquillity instantly put us at ease. She showed us how – through simple yoga techniques including breathing, posture, sound and meditation – we could reach a higher level of consciousness and develop a healthier body and mind. We could recommend Kathryn to anyone.”

Andrea, Slovakia

“The Universe knows just what a girl needs: One dull rainy afternoon back in London, I was browsing the internet looking for Kundalini yoga classes to enrich my own personal practice. Kathryn’s website appeared on the screen. I clicked on it and the same evening attended her Kundalini yoga class and fell in love with Kundalini yoga and meditation more than I could have ever imagined. Kathryn is a truly gifted teacher who has been, ever since that rainy evening, an inspirational light in my life – a supportive mentor. Thank you, dear friend for continuing to share your passion for life, love for Kundalini yoga and meditation, your wisdom, joy and inner peace on the road to discovering my true self. Sat Nam. Love and Blessings.”

Claire, London

Her patience, knowledge, passion and above all her love, are boundless – and as a student of Kathryn and of Kundalini yoga you will grow in many ways, all of them positive.
Enabling you to move towards your true self, and to find peace and happiness along the way. Kundalini is a special type of yoga, and Kathryn is a special kind of teacher – a truly harmonious match. Discover it today!”

Claire, London

“Working with Kathryn one to one over the last couple of years has been an amazing experience.

She is both an inspiring and challenging teacher and this has enabled me to create changes in my body and mind that I never dreamed possible before.
With her help I have been able to shift both emotional and physical patterns that were blocking me and achieve a far greater sense of self.”

Julie, London

“I was introduced to Kundalini by Kathryn at a yoga retreat 2 years ago and was instantly taken by how powerful and exciting this practice is.
Kathryn is clearly a devoted master of Kundalini and has an ability to get across her teaching in a way that is easy to understand but also lots of fun as she has a wonderful sense of humour!
I always feel so energised after her classes but also calm and focused, and she will always find time to discuss anything with you.
I can thoroughly recommend Kathryn and her style of teaching as I know you will gain so much for your mind, body and soul as I have.”

Simon, London

“I regularly practised Kundalini Yoga with Kathryn and she played an important part in my own personal development.
I am now a Kundalini teacher myself and understand what an amazing teacher she really is in her ability to inspire and uplift students.
She is truly an authentic teacher of the highest calibre. If I just need to practise Kundalini yoga in a group then Kathryn’s is the class I head for.”

“Kathryn’s intuition, generosity, positive energy and beautiful voice make her classes, retreats and Kundalini yoga meditations a really special experience. I am very grateful to have found such a beautiful soul, wonderful woman and kind friend.” - Andrea, Slovakia

Pregnancy Yoga Testimonials

Camille, London

“I started my private lessons with Kathryn at a very tumultuous time, whilst balancing  stressful work demands with an emotionally charged fertility treatment.  During this time, Kathryn tailored yoga, meditation and breathing sessions which helped me become more centered and reshape my outlook. I always left our sessions feeling relaxed and peaceful, and was able to implement lessons in my own time which were key to maintaining that positive state of mind. Kathryn is gentle, empathetic and so tuned in, she has been crucial in helping me through a very difficult period and eventually a wonderful pregnancy.  I am so grateful for Kathryn!”

Lindsey, London

“Private sessions with Kathryn was the best decision I made during my pregnancy.
Working full time in a stressful job allowed me little time for yoga classes. Kathryn was flexible in scheduling and time with her was both invigorating and relaxing. I slept soundly after the sessions, and was able to practice on my own between sessions which gave me physical and mental strength, stability and calmness. I was in great condition for my labor which went very smoothly as well as the recovery which I owe to Kathryn. All expecting mothers should have a Kathryn in their lives!”

Ellie, London

Kathryn was very supportive and tuned in to my own individual process during her pregnancy classes. They were gentler and slow moving and really helped me to strengthen my confidence with giving birth. I felt centered and ready for my daughter’s birth, which due to all the preparation was a fully empowering and beautiful experience!

 

KMYOGA Studio, Sydney, Testimonials

Laura Jaramillo

“Kundalini Yoga is an amazing way to leave your known territory and explore the unknown that lives deep within you. A territory that is hard to reach in a conventional way. That is what this fantastic workshop with Kathryn means to me. Exploring myself in an unconventional way and be able to discover what is inside and what can trigger that desirable creativity that is hidden deep within. It is a very enjoyable experience.”

Roger Mussalli, General Manager of Baskin Robbins

“I heard about KMYOGA and decided to join what I now call this inspirational retreat. I instantly felt calmed by the environment but more importantly the humbleness and compassion of Linda (studio manager) and all the wonderful people whom I met throughout all my visits. I automatically felt a sense of belonging and connected not just to others but also to myself. KMYOGA trained me to manage my mind, to stay focused, to trust and have faith. I am so grateful to have found KMYOGA at a crucial time in my life. The teachings helped me realise my goals, more importantly it has brought me closer to my soul and is assisting me in my spiritual journey.”

Mieke Maes

“I had the most relaxing experience during Mia’s class this morning. The energy was so peaceful and I had a huge smile on my face when I left. She takes great care of students who are new to Kundalini by explaining a lot and making everyone feel at ease, that’s much appreciated. I’m definitely coming back to her classes. “

Natalie Apostolou

”Discovering a sacred space in pedestrian life, can be a miraculous feat but at KMYOGA that is just the way of daily life. The gifts that Kundalini practice can offer are delivered in such surprising and beautiful ways but for this novice, the radiant bursts of knowledge, the serenity, the joy in deep commitment to self and a loving dose of healing have opened up paths to creativity that as a writer and a sentient being, I have craved. Most of all Kundalini allows you to cultivate a sacred space within and that..you can always take with you. Sat Nam and thank you all at KMYOGA.”

Shannon

“Before I started Kundalini I felt so tied up with work, study and life stresses bombarding my mind. I found it hard to switch off and this affected my focus, my reaction to those around me and most importantly my health (in other words I was completely over stimulated and strung out). Since practicing Kundalini with Kathryn I have adapted an awareness to myself and my surrounds which has created a profound change in both my physical and mental energy. My mind is less reactive, more still, and I feel I am now connected to the natural rhythms of earth – a synergy between my mind, body, soul, making it easier to wake up in the morning and multitask my way, stressless throughout the day. Kundalini practice really can be transformational. It took me a few classes to really open myself up, but once I did I reaped in the benefits quite rapidly. I am also grateful to Kathryn who leads such a beautiful practice, allowing us the opportunity to find a calm connected space in each and every class.”

Jane Gower

“As a musician, I was already used to working with breath, creative energy and sound, but Kundalini has given me a range of new tools which I can use to specifically direct and refine this energy. The great thing for me is that the practice is very portable, and I have been successful in building up my own daily home (/hotel room!) routine that sustains me between classes. Not only has it given me renewed physical and mental energy and a sense of stability and trust through difficult times, but I have found I can use specific kriyas and meditations to affect my state of mind in critical situations. Nerves as a performing musician are a constant challenge, and in my own experience they are in fact very obstructive to reaching my musical and creative potential. I have found the various Kundalini exercises which calm and refocus the mind infinitely more effective than any self-help training I have undertaken, or any book I have read. A three minute meditation is often enough to reset from a negative, self-judging frame of mind and be free to release the inspiration within. The same can be said of the specific sets one can do to combat stress, fatigue, illness, and situations where there are conflicts of interest. (as is often the case in the ego-driven world of music!). It is like having a chest of magic spells at your disposal. They simply work!”

“I’ve now practiced Kundalini Yoga 10 days straight and I have to say my zest for life has sky rocketed! I feel so vibrant and energetic. Fears now manifest as excitement. Nervous energy is expelled during class, not outside unexpectedly. My determination is growing daily, my sleep has improved, as has my motivation and my own truths. I’m eating healthily and loving it…cooking more than usual, being creative…I even bought a pair of scales and baked! And my body doesn’t ache, fluidity is returning. I feel..liberated..like I can do anything, and why not!” - Rhonda Nicholson

Jill

“The fact that my heart has righted itself after so many years of being severely out of step is quite extraordinary, the difference it makes to me is huge – not only psychologically knowing it is beating steadily is so reassuring, but the knock on effects are numerous, my stress levels have dropped right down, I sleep better, have much more energy, I feel a lift in my whole being, and my attitude is much more positive.” (Jill has suffered from Tachycardia and Atrial fibrillation for 19 years and attributes her discovery of Kundalini Yoga to vast improvements with her heart’s rhythm.)

Kim

“A truly rewarding mind and body experience. When I went to the Kundalini Yoga class I didn’t know what to expect, but what a pleasant surprise! My body was rejuvenated and my mind, clutter-free. The space, staff and classes are always so nice and welcoming. KMYOGA makes you feel at home.”

Corona, NurturePod

“I’ve been practicing Kundalini for about 8 months and I’m starting to see some huge shifts in my body and mind. I feel joy and deep happiness when I’m practicing Kundalini yoga; it lifts me up and inspires me for more good work. I find the chanting and mantras so healing. I am finally finding my voice and opening my heart, allowing my connections to be stronger and truer – free to be me at long last! Kundalini Yoga has really inspired me to be more and to be the best I can be.”

Nicolas Perez

“Someone told me Kundalini was an excellent way to fight anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. I had my first class of yoga in my life with Kundalini just four weeks ago and my life is starting to change. It is mind blowing. I started experiencing new levels of consciousness in my body. Not only do I feel more more balanced in my daily life and less anxious about the crazy world, but I have increased energy levels without the need for alcohol, caffeine or chocolate. Practicing the kriyas and chanting the mantras has created more balance and peace within me. I’m really thankful to KMYOGA, Kundalini and Naam for the spiritual awakening and my new life!”
