Pavan Dev Kaur - a clear layering of the history of yoga and the many parts/aspects that Kundalini Yoga could have been built on. What was missing from this e-learning course is the recording of her last lesson #6 where she speaks on Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan as well as the materials. In many ways...I feel the most important part that I signed up for was not included.
