Snatam Kaur Recharge Yourself

I love Kundalini Yoga and was very excited to see Snatam Kaur had a newish DVD out. However, very few reviews on-line and no chatter. Has anyone done this practice. One reviewer did say that she felt it was too much meditation/singing and not enough movement????

I'm not Sharon, so I hope it's okay to chime in.

Snatam Kaur is a major star on the devotional chant circuit. She has a beautiful voice and can play several musical instruments. She was raised in a 3HO family and has been steeped in Yogi Bhajan's kundalini yoga and meditation practices since birth.

The only DVD I had with her is one she did with Gurmukh (Kundalini Yoga: Healthy Body, Fearless Spirit). It was filmed live at Spirit Fest in 2010. Gurmukh led the actual kundalini yoga set; Snatam provided the music and led the meditation set.

It would not surprise me if the DVD that SharonH mentioned did skew more strongly towards meditation and singing; I think these are Snatam's strengths. Of course she can do kundalini yoga kriyas, but in my opinion she is better known as a musician and meditation teacher than a teacher of physical postures, if that makes sense.
