Application Process
You must go through an application process to be accepted into the training. Please note that not all applicants are accepted into the program as there are various physical and psychological requirements necessary to be able to go on this deep transformative journey and to hold space for others to step onto the path themselves.
Although no previous experience with Kundalini Dance is required, if it is possible to attend a local Kundalini Dance series in your area before the retreat that is preferred. As Kundalini Dance is still not available everywhere this may not be possible for everyone. You can find classes here.
If you can’t find classes near you please contact Leyolah directly at leyolah@kundalinidance.com to discuss your pre-retreat preparations. As Leyolah offers regular online courses you can join her in one of her online temples to get a transmission of the basics of tantric alchemy.

Gratitude From Women
Noeleen Melissa Joyce, Sydney Australia
‘Diving into the Kundalini Dance training was next level, i was completely open to the infinite so i could truly let go and surrender to all within myself. Guided through sacred prayer, intention, dance, breath, movement practices are like portals to go within and beyond your physical being. The guidance of this sacred practice is intense self healing and full power, it activated me on a cellular level. I have opened and deepened to what i am calling my activation of my super human powers. I was re-birthed by fire, kundalini serpent fire. Thank you Leyolah for being a divine channel, teacher and guide. I am eternally grateful.’
Kaitlyn Field, long term Kundalini Dance Facilitator and Trainer
‘When you train to become a facilitator of Kundalini Dance you are not only learning tools that will help you to guide others and inspire their transformation and evolution. You will also develop inner capacities that help you to navigate through the challenges of your daily life. As you dedicate to this practice, you become more heart centred and deeply anchored in your sacred feminine power and intuition. Previous trainees have likened the facilitator training journey to that of a priest/ priestess initiation into the sacred alchemical temple arts as you deepen in your service and prepare to become a guide for others to connect to the Divine within themselves and without.’
Snow Marks, Alaska
‘The Kundalini Dance facilitator training was a powerful initiation connecting me to the divine life force that dwells with in me. I learned new skills to shift old beliefs and patterns that were limiting my capacity to experience joy ecstasy and bliss. Moving the dense energy of fear, anger and shame from my body and dancing it into the light of love. As a facilitator I have witnessed the transformational power of this work change the lives of those who choose to open themselves to the creative abundant life force that flows through us. I am so grateful for this work and the gifts I have received from it.’
Kerri Ryan MA, Goddess of Sacred Sex
‘I was as in Leyolah’s very first training session! The changes that has made to my life as I cleared my body and dealt with my limitations set me on a course to birth my own wisdom and path. Profound work she teaches and I still use the techniques and breath work with my groups and on myself all these years later.’
Hayley Melrose, Photographer
“As I sit here editing photos from Kundalini Dance Training….I can’t stop laughing, cracking up… and crying…all at once. What a life changing, clearing, deep bonding, refreshing, challenging, rewarding, powerful, wild experience….with such amazing soul sisters!!! Feel truly blessed! I keep doing my Kundalini Dance keys and breaths every day…I’m addicted. This is the best natural high. It’s so empowering and revitalizing. Tingly vibrating hands is my new standard plus a beating, expansive heart chakra like I’ve never felt before! I reach these ‘no mind, complete ecstasy, oneness, flame bright’ states……. blending this masculine and feminine energy within….bursting inside…and feeling this sacred union. Everything is amazing peace. Any worry or fears are instantly transmuted. I’m so connected to my inner guidance and held by mother earth. And most of all…I’m just so content…I don’t need anything. I can’t wait to share this with the world. All happening. LOVING LIFE. Thanks so much to all the wonderful women on this training. You have touched me deeply.”

“The Kundalini Dance Facilitator Training has transformed me in many ways on all levels of my Being. I have come into my Divine feminine essence which continues to evolve and grow in the practice and in my life. I now have the confidence with my vulnerabilities to hold space for others to unfold and flower with radiant love. I feel I am softer as a woman, more authentic, honest and open-hearted with myself and others. My gifts continue to reveal themselves in the practice. To share these alchemical keys is truly an honour and a blessing as I witness others transform. It has been the most powerful transformational pathway for me physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Blessings Leyolah you are the true embodiment of Shakti. I am eternally grateful for the gifts you so open-heartedly share with the world.”

Patricia has been following her unfolding spiritual journey since the age of 12 and has deepened her understanding of herself and her spiritual path in many different practices most of them shamanic. She’s on an ongoing path of awakening, constantly dancing the spiral path of death and rebirth. A wolf woman, a pathfinder.
