Her knowledge is immense, but it’s her heart that makes the biggest impact.”

“Kamala is one of the most well-educated and beloved teachers we’ve had in over 25 years of running yoga studios.
She sees each student clearly, and responds with rare sensitivity, wisdom, and warmth. She’s more than a teacher—she’s a guide, a coach, and a true friend.”
— Chelsea, Artist
“Kamala’s understanding of yoga runs deep -it’s not just something she teaches,
it’s who she is.
Kamala showed me that wisdom lives in relationship and experience, not just in books. The way she guided us to question interpretations that don't serve women was revolutionary for me. I now approach all sacred texts with this same discerning, feminine intelligence." — Jennifer, Meditation Teacher & Therapist
"Before this program, I thought I needed to know more facts about Yoga to teach it well.
What my students are saying about working with me:
I’ve been drawn to the Bhagavad Gita for most of my life — not because it offers easy answers, but because it holds complex, sometimes contradictory truths. I’ve studied it as a former monastic, lived it through decades of practice, and questioned it as a feminist and scholar. This course grew from those inquiries — from my love of Sanskrit and ritual, my discomfort with exclusionary interpretations, and my deep respect for women’s spiritual authority.
I created Embodying the Gita as a response to everything I’ve witnessed in the yoga world and within myself: the longing for a more intimate, embodied relationship with sacred texts, and the need for spaces where women’s voices are not only welcomed, but centered.
As a scholar-practitioner, I value interdisciplinary inquiry — weaving history, spirituality, art, science, and critical thinking into how I approach the Gita. I no longer follow a lineage or guru-based model. My path is post-lineage, rooted in devotion, discernment, and the living wisdom of the body. If you’ve ever felt like yoga philosophy wasn’t written for you, or that your lived experience didn’t quite fit the mold — this course is for you.
