I met Guruatma Kaur Khalsa at a critical time in my development and knew when I met her that I needed to hear what she had to teach. Not only did she give me an extensive numerology reading but, generously shared so much of her own knowledge and reference materials collected over years of research and experience. She had me pegged from the start, and began teaching as soon as I walked through the door. The numerology reading was more in depth than anything I had ever heard and ultimately allowed me to accept the truth of this life for me, helped me commit to it and understand and begin the practices that would support me best on this journey. Her no-nonsense style, positivity and guidance were coupled with a loving personal dedication to my growth as a student of this life. She doesn't just read numbers and teach yoga, she shows you how to live your authentic self. I admire her as a person and a teacher and count her among the major influences of my life.

The breathing and the mantras are helping; they absolutely help me in my daily life. They have been much more effective than just taking an ATIVAN (anti-anxiety/depression drug).

GA, you give it to me straight and I love you for that :)

After 30 years of traditional therapy and the best that psychopharmacology had to offer, my mood swings and chronic depression were under control. My ADHD was manageable. But, I was not happy. Why? Because my true self was still trapped behind the defense mechanisms I'd developed over the years, for protection in lieu of a healthy childhood and psyche.
My mentor at work referred me to Guruatma 18 months ago. Her combination of yogic tools, acceptance and wisdom have allowed me to recognize the benefits of my difficult formative years, to identify the sources of my psychic pain, and then forgive and expunge them - and, to embrace who I am.
Working with Guruatma has helped me find peace in my personal life and has freed me to be assertive, without fear of retribution in my professional life.
The benefits of her counsel have caused friends, family, and co-workers to remark on the new self-confidence and inner peace, which are now the rule and not the exception in my life.
This is especially important since the last year has included the unexpected death of my husband, the birth of my first grandchild, and countless incidents at work where I was not treated fairly, yet was able to focus on my long-term goals, instead of being paralyzed by my grief or by the shame of being wrong.
Working with Guruatma has improved my life beyond my expectations and I would recommend her without reservation as an advocate of mind-body health, and as a gifted teacher with seemingly infinite resources of time-tested methods to achieve that health.

I want to tell you, that you are sincerely one of the finest Kundalini Yoga teachers on this planet. I do not know anyone who teaches with more accurate knowledge than you. You have a way of making the teachings real. I knew this teacher was in you, and I saw your global reach way back when everyone thought you would die. I just saw and knew that God was not going to take that teacher off the planet before using the resource, ha!!
I am very proud of you, and all that you are doing on the internet and in the world, to teach and share and heal and grow and give. You amaze ME!!

I'm a teacher, and usually when I go into my classroom at the beginning of each year, I am overwhelmed by the amount of things to do. In the past I have always felt rushed, confused, and exhausted. After doing yoga almost every day with Guruatma this summer, I've had a very different experience this time. I was able to take one thing at a time and enjoy doing it. I experienced a sense of creativity in arranging the furniture, library and other materials, and in designing and creating the bulletin boards.
During the summer, I write poetry. This summer I experienced a new found ability to quiet my inner critic and to hear my poems as they came to me.
My son has also noticed a difference. "Mom, when you say no now, you say it quietly and calmly."
Teaching, writing, and mothering are the three deeply important activities for me. That each of these has undergone an improvement is a blessing and source of joy to me.

I have been Mrs. Khalsa's physical therapist for the past 6 years. Mrs. Khalsa has made a remarkable recovery from a very devastating disease. During this recovery, she played a major roll in adapting her therapy program. It was through her vast knowledge of yoga that we developed specific exercise to meet her specific needs. I hope that Mrs. Khalsa can use her knowledge of yoga combined with her knowledge of the muscular skeletal system to help others. i would feel confident recommending her for a job teaching yoga to those medically challenged.

I was crazy and you make human out of me – I come back into life. It didn’t matter what I said. Without judgment, you listened, you understood and you walked with me through my emotions. Usually, people didn’t take me seriously.
So, I’m not something different. So, I’m normal and I’m only human. I don’t know what you did, but whatever you did, it worked. So, I have the power to take care of myself.
Whenever I come here, I leave with laughter. Write my name; I’m honored to be with you.

The thing that I like best about Guruatma's yoga class is that she is so accepting of every person just where they are. When I first went to her class I was so concerned that I would not be able to sit on the floor, as well as being a large woman I have osteoarthritis in my knees. Guruatma was so patient helping me to be comfortable and supported in the poses. It is very affirming when your body does not do what you want it to do to find other ways to do this work. Guruatma always encourages us to be accepting to our bodies and to focus on what is working well. I love Guruatma's Yoga class.

It's so GREAT to get these downloads from your student hand-out list - they makes my yoga exercises fun because I get a chance to try different things. I just love it! It's what I look for every morning when I get up. You inspire me to stay focused and be truthful to myself. Your blogs and the words of Yogi Bhajan, helps me think about life and this universe differently. I realized yesterday that now I can rock on my back which I couldn't do three weeks ago when I was in Houston. Thank you , thank you, thank you.

As a KRI registered Kundalini yoga teacher for the past five years I've been working on various aspects of my Self for a long time. My experience with Numerology was not extensive so I appreciated the wide scope of the numerology session I had with Guruatma over the phone. Her insights opened up some exciting new paths for me to explore. She gave me many suggestions and tools to help me open up facets of my Soul Body that I had not been able to see before.
I took six pages of notes during the session and I have been able to listen to it again on the recording she made for me, which was so helpful because of the vast amount of information that came through during our session. She took me with her into a very deep co-meditative state. It was a truly delightful experience!
She also shared with me many resources so I can continue to learn and explore numerology on my own and use numerology to understand and work more efficiently with my students and family members. I feel like I have many new paths to explore, each one a great gift to help me continue to expand as a teacher, as a student of Kundalini yoga and as a human being. I am deeply grateful for Guruatma's guidance, her wisdom and uncanny ability to communicate with such clarity, truth and amazing insight.

I have had an incredible experience working with Guruatma's Prosperity Course. At first, with just the little bits I was doing to build and gather up the tools to prosperity, things started jumping. Now, going deeper into the course and learning and experiencing more of the tools Guruatma presents me, I've been experiencing more movement in my attitudes and in my prosperity. I even had an opportunity in my art career come back to me that I thought had passed long ago.

Guruatma Kaur carries the spirit of the teachings in her heart. She has a special way of elevating and serving those who connect with her. She was my very first Kundalini Yoga teacher and is an inspiration to work with.
Ek Ong Kaar Kaur Khalsa, New Mexico - Sikh Dharma International
After my husband suffered a severe and life threatening injury, I knew just where to turn - Guruatma Kaur Khalsa. I was so focused on getting my husband help and caring for his needs, that I neglected myself significantly. I even began to wallow in some mild depression and self pity, especially after the medical bills began to come in. Our whole world had been turned up-side-down. GAK was right there on the phone and email, asking questions, listening, and making sure I took care of myself and made some time for myself. When I began to worry about this or that, GAK always had just the right suggestion, meditation, just the right quote, or her own words of wisdom that took care of every situation that presented itself. She gave me so much support, propped me up and gave me the courage to go on. The thing that makes her so genuine is that she has been there, she knows first hand what it is like to be very sick and knows what it is like to look after someone that is very sick. We were so blessed to have her by our side to help us the past year. I don’t know what we would have done without her. She is a wealth of wisdom in many areas of yogic and spiritual health and healing. She has learned to use many tools and techniques to help a variety of people in a variety of situations. May the Infinite bless her always.

I am currently a graduate student and am studying to become an occupational therapist. I attended the Chair Yoga Class at the Adaptive Recreational Center as part of a school project and was moved by Guruatma’s story. The fact that she was once in the position of several of her students and took advantage of the aquatic classes and yoga classes at the center for her own recovery provides her student’s with hope, motivation, and the inspiration to be active participants of their own recovery.
The class not only acts as a tool for gaining physical strength, but it also promotes an individuals overall health and well-being. It was apparent that many of the students were regulars and found the class to be a meaningful occupation and enjoyed the social and interactive aspects of the class as well. I would love to attend another class and really enjoyed watching the way the students lit up as they entered the class.

Since my mother has been attending Guruatma’s classes, I have seen a huge improvement with her behavior and mobility. My mother has Multiple Sclerosis and the left side of her body has always caused her problems.
By practicing Guruatma’s teachings, my mother has been able to calm her nerves and exercise her body in various new ways. I believe that her mobility has increased by at least 50% within the last year.
We are truly blessed with all the changes that are occurring for my mother.
Elah N, TX
My mother was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when I was a teenager and I was slowly coming to terms with the fact that over the years, my mother’s mobility was gradually going to decrease until her left leg and arm would be immobile. However, by attending private sessions, Guruatma has truly helped my mother with her mobility as well as her confidence.
For the past couple of years my mother was always hesitant to drive because of insecurities she had, but now she is more secure and comfortable behind the wheel of a car.
Guruatma has helped lift my mother’s spirits and now my mother is the one that wants to get better and attend physical therapy.

Please let it be known that Guruatma Khalsa is one of the best yoga teachers in Houston, Texas. She has trained with some of the best teachers in the country since 1977. And she not only talks the talk, she walks the walk.
I would recommend her without hesitation to teach anybody Kundalini Yoga, at any level. She knows the technology and can explain it clearly. She is also good at developing modifications of exercises for those students that have physical limitations.

I've been a member of Co-Dependent's Anonymous for over a year now, but, even though the program really helped me, I always felt "something" was missing. After attending your yoga class on addiction, I think I discovered what that "something" was.
Your wonderful explanations about the Self and the Soul, and how the self warps into addictive behavior when it has no relationship with the soul really helped me to see my co-dependence in a new light. Even though I've done my third step and turned my life over to God, as I understand God, your class and yoga set has shown me how much power I have in actively establishing a relationship with God.
I'm not one for 'blind faith’, to be honest. I'd rather have an experiential knowledge of God than a vague hope God exists somewhere. So, I think your class will push me even further in my search for that experience. Anonymous
I had a phone conversation with Guruatma, at a time where I was very confused and sad. The conversation, which she recorded and sent to me via e-mail, shone a new light on my thoughts. The great thing about this is that I keep listening and listening to this recording, and every time I hear something new or realize something that I hadn't before.
Guruatma generously spent quality hours with me and her voice and her words still linger on.......in my head. I am thankful for the way she gives, listens and makes me see the truth; she taught me so much.
Sepi/Dharam Dhian, Vietnam
Guruatma is a teacher. She teaches with compassion, but also with precision and attention to detail. She not only teaches, she inspires. She carries the gifts, which come to one who has suffered greatly and has transcended the pain and the memory in some mysterious way. She also carries the knowledge and experience of many years of study and devotion.
Her insistence is gentle; her judgment stands suspended in empathy. Without reservation, I recommend Guruatma for teaching persons of all ages. Her gentle, yet firm approach ushers her students to try and keep trying and finally to reach beyond themselves.
Kate Burns LPC

Guruatma is a teacher and healer of the highest order; she is the embodiment of Yogi Bhajan’s teaching. She is the most respectful and graceful deliverer of this teaching that I can imagine. Guruatma provides more than a sympathetic ear; she also provides techniques whereby a person can gain control over one’s distress. Indeed, if a person allows Guruatma’s perfect faith inside, and follows her recommendations, I believe one will see one’s life experiences in a different and positive way. I think by her having perfect confidence in the teaching, she conveys this confidence. There is serenity about Guruatma, a quiet power, which is most reassuring. She understands what it is like to feel afraid, to feel powerless, to feel hopeless. Possibly she feels this way sometimes herself. She does not pretend to be ‘all-powerful’; she is a human being with the weaknesses of a human. But she knows with absolute certainty that there is a way out, a “way out of every block” as she says. She doesn’t just say this she lives this. I knew her in the depths of her private hell (serious illness); she never wavered in her faith or in the love with which she held the world. For all these reasons, I am very confident to recommend Guruatma, especially for a teaching position working with people who need to see that light in the darkness.

I found Guruatma to be an invaluable wealth of knowledge who was indispensable to me both in obtaining my Level 1 Kundalini Yoga certification and in my ongoing task of learning and teaching the intricacies of KY. Her knowledge of the physical body and how KY works to heal and strengthen is unsurpassed by any other KY instructor in the Houston Metropolitan area. Guruatma's own personal experience in healing through yoga makes her both an inspiration and compelling evidence of the worthiness of the science and her skills in applying them to particular situations.

Working with Guruatma Kaur has accelerated my personal growth by applying the technology of Kundalini Yoga. Her intensely focused style, clear communication, and intuitive insights are truly amazing. As a certified IKY teacher, I have worked with many wonderful teachers. Guruatma is one of the most impacting teachers I have been blessed to work with.
We all know Kundalini Yoga delivers results much faster than other forms of yoga. Guruatma is very comparable! Her ability to identify those areas a student needs to develop cuts through the noise and commotion and quickens personal development. I am so fortunate to have her as my teacher.

I recently experienced an individualized session with Guruatma and it was extraordinary. I was seeking a new approach to deal with some old family baggage and needing a new way forward, an alternative to the usual psychological therapies.
She has provided me with a program of meditation, yoga, music, and more, which is opening me to healing in tectonic ways.
Guruatma is attentive, tuned in to others, caring, enthusiastic about people's growth. I feel really good just being in her presence. She is genius and generosity in pure form.

To me it is as difficult to get up at 5:00 a.m. as at 8:00 a.m. So, why not receive the benefits of a class that covers spirituality, exercise, relaxation, and healing practices in an environment of love and care with a teacher that is always willing to give and give more.

My experience using the Prosperity techniques, mantras and meditations as taught to me by Guruatma were profound. Here is an example: in making my Living Vision Board, I unknowingly added a picture that had my future job's name in it. Also, my life's path unfolded as if I had rolled out a carpet. I continue to use the formula with the knowledge and understanding that the key to prosperity is in the commitment to the process. Guruatma is an exceptional teacher with the knowledge and experiences needed to explain and define the Kundalini technology as taught to her by Yogi Bhajan.

I appreciate Guruatma's realistic approach and passion to teach the Science of this yoga. She provided me with a yogic framework of kriyas and meditations which addressed my personal goals and ambitions, so I could then implement into my own daily routine.
She is a teacher who can teach her students that yoga can be a practical, scientific and an effective tool for every individual.

The other thing you do is this. When I'm in a bad mood or confused, or angry or doubting people, all I have to do is hear from you and I wake up and remember to be thoughtful, caring, grateful, forgiving - all the things that Buddhism taught me but I had forgotten.
Ted K, TX
I have known Guruatma for 25 years and know her to be a person of compassion, integrity, sensitivity, and professionalism. I know that as a teacher of Kundalini Yoga she will bring these qualities and combine them with a solid knowledge of yoga.
In addition, having lived with a disability for many years, she will bring a practical knowledge about how to deal with a disability, particularly how to incorporate yoga into coping strategies.

Well, my humble opinion as a student, YOUR KY student. YOU got me hooked to KY and moving forward in my spiritual life...I think your prices are worth it. With your years of personal experience with all this, and the PROOF that YOU can do the kriyas and kick all of our butts, too, is amazing.

I came to Guruatma for healing and rejuvenation at a bleak period of my life. She helped me physically, emotionally and spiritually and has, since then, worked with me through various 'troubled downturns" in my life.
With her massage therapy, her nutritional recommendations, yoga exercises, and her words of wisdom, love and guidance, my physical well-being was ensured and my upward spiritual journey enhanced.
Her unique blend of caring, knowledge and intuition are needed at this time of healing and growth for individuals, and for the planet.

I study yoga with Guruatma weekday mornings at 6am. It takes someone with a highly inspirational style to being with students at that hour.
Guruatma is exceptionally knowledgeable on the intricacies of Kundalini and imparts the information in terms which all can follow. My stressful workday supporting trial lawyers is given relief as Guruatma taught me breathing techniques I discreetly execute during urgent situations.

What I love about working with Guruatma is that she goes straight to the heart of the matter. I get tools to use right away and ideas to chew on for a while until I finally have that A-ha moment. Then I go back and learn some more.
