Kathleen Berney (spiritual name Satya Raj Kaur) is a longtime yoga practitioner and teacher. Kathleen’s life was saved and her soul set afire by Jivamukti style vinyasa yoga in the late 1990’s, which led her to study Mysore Style Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga in the Sri K. Pattabhi Jois lineage. In 2000, Kathleen earned her 200 hours at YogaWorks in Santa Monica, CA under the late Maty Ezraty. She completed an ashtanga vinyasa teacher training with Richard Freeman in Boulder and was privileged to have studied with a host of other well known yogis in NYC. From 2002-07, Kathleen owned River Yoga in Westerly, RI where she taught a mixture of ashtanga, vinyasa, slow flow, restorative, and baby mommy yoga. Kathleen is now a certified Kundalini yoga teacher through the Kundalini Research Institute and Yoga at the Ashram in Millis. She teaches kundalini yoga at Ritual Vibes, Foxboro, MA and at workshops across New England. Kathleen is also a humble student of Iyengar yoga.

Yoga History with Sofi Dillof | Jivamukti Teacher

The Yogasūtras of Patañjali is the earliest known surviving text systemization of the philosophy and practice of yoga.
