Meet The Instructors
Jackie McDuffey, Owner
My spiritual journey began when I found myself stuck, hitting walls at every turn. I knew there had to be more to life, something deeper and more fulfilling. I felt a calling to connect with and empower others, but I struggled to find a way forward. Desperate for answers, I began exploring different philosophies and paths, searching for a reconnection with my purpose and passion.
I discovered Kundalini Yoga and Meditation during a particularly difficult time in my life. With no idea what it was, I searched ‘Kundalini Yoga near me’ and found a class at the Sat Tirath Ashram in Kansas City.
Walking through the door, I was immediately overwhelmed with fear and self-consciousness—I wanted to turn around and run out. But, I stayed, despite my discomfort. The class felt challenging. My neurotic human mind struggled to stay present, as it tends to do for most new meditators…
But, I continued; committed. People in my life began to notice a change in me. They said things like, "You seem different. What have you been doing?" That was the spark I needed. From that moment, I leaned on Kundalini Yoga, meditation, and metaphysical practices to create profound shifts in my life.
Today, I follow my calling to serve and support other sojourners along their own spiritual path.
As a Reiki Master, Gong Master, Advanced Sound Healing Practitioner, and Numerologist, I offer tools and guidance to help individuals overcome fear, trauma, and limiting beliefs. Whether through Kundalini classes, sound healing, or spiritual workshops, I’m here to empower you to discover your inner strength and embrace your full potential.
My mission and passion is to help you connect to your true self, re-awaken your deepest passion, and, with it, help you create a life filled with purpose, growth, and joy.
Attending my classes, you’ll feel supported to explore with curiosity, discover deeper meaning, and reconnect with the version of yourself you wish to elevate. Together, we create space for self-discovery, meaningful growth, and true transformation.
