Sat Darshan Lafontaine

I’ve been working with Kundalini, embodiment, and consciousness for over two decades. What began as a personal practice, became a clear calling to teach — and later to train others — as a Kundalini Yoga and Shakti Dance teacher, holding long-term learning containers, retreats, and teacher trainings.

A powerful Kundalini awakening a decade ago reshaped my life and my understanding of transformation. While it opened subtle perception, it also revealed a vital truth: intensity without integration leads to bypassing and destabilization. What followed was a years-long process of embodiment, trauma healing, and shadow work. This journey, alongside formal studies in somatic trauma therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), confirmed that spiritual practices alone are often insufficient for trauma healing. This realization deepened my commitment to safety, attunement, and the "body-led" process.

Today, my work brings these streams together. I offer Kundalini Activation and integral trauma therapy grounded in somatic trauma therapy and Internal Family Systems–informed work. This combined approach forms what I call the The Embodied Sequence: a way of working where activation and integration are held in balance, allowing change to be regulated, embodied, and sustained.

At the core of everything I do is presence, listening, and trust in the body’s timing. I’m not interested in peak states, but in the quiet embodiment of awareness — how it settles, matures, and continues to unfold in everyday life.

Alongside this work, music is part of my path. I record and share mantra music under the name Sat Darshan — a long-standing offering that lives alongside my facilitation and therapeutic work. My music is available on major streaming platforms.
