Classes
Welcome from Our Beloved BibiJi
We will begin with a warm welcome from Bhai Sahiba Bibiji Inderjit Kaur, wife of Yogi Bhajan. Bibiji has taught us, loved us, and served us for decades and is the most gracious example of a Khalsa woman and the spirit of Keep Up!
Daily Sadhana
Hosted by local communities in person or by global communities online.
We encourage our Global Communities to do daily Sadhana together in their local areas during these special solstice days.
If you don’t have a local community to join in person for Sadhana, you can check all available sadhanas around the globe on our events page here.
Got Sadhana? A Roundtable of committed Sadhana practitioners sharing tips and inspiration for Keeping UP!
Hosted by a panel of Global Sangat Members.
Aquarian Sadhana is one of the fundamental teachings and practices of the 3HO lifestyle. Waking up in the Amrit Vela (early morning hours) to do Sadhana (Spiritual Practice) on a daily basis is a big commitment and one that is difficult for many of us.
In this session, we will hear from a panel of fellow Global Community members who, for many years, have committed to doing this practice on a daily basis. What do they tell themselves? How do they get through the challenges of being tired or lazy, or their mind distracting them during their practice? The panelists will share tips and inspirations for how to get through the challenges of doing a daily Sadhana.
And for those who are looking to start a group Sadhana with your local community, they will share tips for how to be successful with getting started and keeping it going… and answer your questions as well.
Join this roundtable discussion about this incredible practice –another gift of our lifestyle which can be truly life changing.

Kundalini Yoga and Meditation Classes
Hosted by different global community members each day.
Practicing our beloved Kundalini Yoga kriyas and meditations is always a great way to feel uplifted and live to our highest selves. Join multiple sessions taught by global community members from around the world to take a break from your hectic day, to breathe, get your circulation going, and connect to your soul.
Massage, Gong and Meditation for Stress Relief, Healing and Joy
Taught by Agya Akal Singh from Chile, Surajdev Singh from Uraguay and Har Prakash Kaur from Argentina.
This South American trio brings together Yogi Bhajan’s teachings on massage, the sound current of the gong and healing meditation to help your stress disappear and uplift your spirit.
DEEP HEALING SESSION
Immerse yourself in a journey of profound relaxation and renewal. This unique experience, featuring three extraordinary healing techniques, invites you to release tension, restore balance, and awaken your inner healing potential—leaving you refreshed, revitalized, and deeply connected to your true self.
BABY POSE DRUMMING: ADVANCED YOGIC MASSAGE TECHNIQUE
The session begins with a powerful yogic massage technique taught by Master Yogi Bhajan, designed to activate waves of healing energy throughout the body. This unique approach works directly on the nervous system, releasing deeply accumulated tensions and restoring internal balance.
About this technique, Yogi Bhajan stated: “When nothing else works, when a client feels hopeless, Baby Pose Drumming will work.”
This massage is not only profoundly healing but also alleviates stress and provides a deeply relaxing and pleasant experience. It is ideal for therapists seeking an advanced healing tool, as well as for individuals who simply wish to enjoy an extraordinary, soothing, and stress-relieving experience.
No prior experience is required. The technique is applied to another person, so you must attend with a partner. First, you will give the massage, and then you will receive it from them. Come in comfortable clothing and be ready to enjoy!
Deep relaxation with Gong
The session continues with a Gong Bath, a millenary instrument of healing that induces ultra-deep relaxation through a pleasant sound massage that resonates throughout the entire body and being.
Healing Ramadasa
The session concludes with a subtle and profound meditative technique utilizing the vibration of the Ramadasa healing mantra. This provides a deeply positive and transformative healing experience.
The Amazing Power of Gatka: Success in All Aspects of Life
Taught by Guru Shabad Singh De Santis from Italy.
Develop the ability to utilize your innate power and laser-like focus to experience your most exalted self. Gatka is an ancient Indian martial art designed to fight multiple opponents with maximum effectiveness and minimal energy. It’s based on the shape of the Infinite Eight and trains you to fight at 360 degrees.
Not just a martial art, this technique develops spiritual fitness, extreme concentration, and fearlessness, becoming closer to your own virtues and to God.
Gatka helps you develop an enhanced awareness of the surrounding environment and opportunities around you. You learn to become victorious in any conflict and in all aspects of life.
The Yoga of Food
Taught by Ajooni Singh from Spain (Mexico).
Yogi Bhajan taught Ajooni that cooking is an experience of healing through vegetables, spices, flavors, love and intuition. He told him, “I don’t see ingredients, I see medicine”.
Yoga is described as living consciously – from what we put in our bodies, to the use of our human senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, to everything that we communicate and manifest. Cooking and eating is a total expression of this.
For this class, Ajooni will provide a recipe and a list of ingredients ahead of time, so you can be prepared to join him in your own kitchen to make a delicious, healthy meal.
He also has many entertaining stories to share, so prepare for a fun and cozy time in addition to cooking a tasty treat.
The Universal Sound Current
Taught by Mata Mandir Singh from Europe (US).
Loving yourself and your soul brings such joy. This is the blessing of Gurbani.
All sound in the universe relates to the sound current, the Brahma Naad.
What is Gurbani? What is Japa? What is Simran? What is a Granth? What is the science behind Naad Yoga? What is Dhyan? What is an Ahad sound ? What is Anahad? What is Naam , and why do we chant anyway? What is frequency and what is music?
These are fundamental questions. This class will be conducted as a “Veechaar.” A group contemplation of what is meant by the words above and what is meant by the statement, “In the Naad is contained the Aad. “
A human being is designed for Naad Yoga and only Naad Yoga. As Guru Amar Das says in Anand Sahib, “Oh my ears, you were meant to hear only the Truth. And for this reason, you were given to a human, that they might hear the Word! And having heard, the mind and body blossom forth, and the tongue is filled with the nectar Name.”

Numerology: Victory Over Self-Deception: Understanding Your Mastery Number
Taught by Nam Hari Kaur (US).
Have you ever thought, “He just doesn’t get it, what an idiot!” Or, “That girl is nothing but trouble, she’s always upsetting me!” Hmm, sounds like it’s all the other person, right? Well, maybe not. When you understand your Mastery number, the month of birth, it will open up an entirely new vista of information to work with in your relationships.
Through the science of Numerology, we can learn how to fulfill our own needs without creating conflict. This practical and informative workshop will give you the inside-edge into understanding those around you, as well as yourself.
Celestial Communication
Led by Siri Hari Kaur (US), who was the first person Yogi Bhajan instructed to choreograph and lead Celestial Communications.
Have you heard about or practiced this amazing teaching of the 3HO lifestyle?
Join us to experience Celestial Communication — a wonder food for the body – quick and effective and fun. It heals and uplifts you, making you creative and productive. When the hands and body meet, internal music is created. Your body becomes the instrument and your prana the projection.
Here are some excerpts from a lecture by Yogi Bhajan talking about the benefits of practicing Celestial Communication:
“Celestial Communication is the greatest food for the body healing, mental – equipped intelligence and creativity, and soul uplift and the flow of the spirit. It is very simple, very authentic, most ancient and absolutely super modern way of making the dumbest, the dullest, and the most boring person be very creative, productive, and absolutely intelligent. It blends all three”… “The mental emptiness, physical boredom, spiritual bankruptcy, which people are suffering with, you can totally wipe it out, just by giving these classes and celestial communication workshops”…. “There are a lot of people that do not know this. It’s a very creative methodology in which you can really express yourself very well and go out and grow out”…
~Yogi Bhajan
As an extra bonus, we will be featuring various global communities, who will share their versions of Celestial Communication. For example, as a seva project, some of our Chinese Sangat Members have brought this beautiful teaching to mental facilities to provide a form of expression and a helpful brain exercise for their patients.
The Blessing of Seva – Understanding Your Purpose in Life
Taught by Gurubachan Singh (US)
Gurubachan Singh will share his experience and the blessings he’s received from doing Seva for our global community, for our Teacher, and for those known and unknown.
He will explain how the Siri Guru Granth Sahib and Yogi Bhajan have described seva, to give us a better sense of the essence of selfless service.
Community Seva (Selfless Service) Projects
Featuring numerous Global Sangat Members
This is the nectar of your soul’s journey to God and is the most powerful blessing of all – God serves those who serve others.
We will be featuring members of our global community who are sharing some aspect of our beautiful teachings to uplift humanity. There are thousands of people across the globe who are doing amazing work. Are you one of them? Share what you do on our “Community Causes” page and let us know if you would like to be one of our featured Seva projects at this event.
The Aquarian Age is upon us
It is darkest before the dawn
Now is the time to spread the teachings
The world is waiting to hear your song
