It is a joy to be in your Kundalini class. How can I thank you for including me and sharing your knowledge as you do? I am appreciative of all that you have created with your website, the kriyas, and most importantly the open invitation to go deeply and gently and energetically into the possible. I want to be sure you know how appreciative I am to be in your ‘circle.’ Yesterday I enjoyed your Aerobic Set & Heart Connection from May 2020/Mother’s Day. It’s intriguing listening to a practice reco… Read more

It’s “easy to love” this CD! Blumhagen renders these classic tunes with tenderness and contemporary sass. Listen to it in the car: you’ll feel the luscious arrangements wrap around you like a mink stole, and go to straight to your head like a martini without the alcohol!

“… it was stunning, my friend! You did Cole real justice. Your up-tempos bounced and your ballads flowed. I particularly liked the introspective slower motions of several songs – nothing unhurried, everything thoughtful. I also was taken with your immediate and easy rapport with the audience. Most important, the audience was given complete honesty both in your singing and in your talking…”

After SO many years, I finally had the opportunity to see you perform live. And what a fun show it was! Rocky, when you spoke of the memory work and harmonies involved in the Sinatra show I had no idea. Wow! You weren’t kidding! It was such a treat, an ear-tickling joy to hear the complexity of the arrangements and the absolutely stunning 4-part voicing. Every note hit with precision. So much so that several times during the performance I caught myself grinning from ear to ear in sheer delight a… Read more

The consistent practice of Kundalini Yoga over the last six months resulted in many benefits: Improved sleep, better breathing, and the resolution of an elbow injury from two years. The combination of our breath work, meditation and movement have greatly enhanced my overall sense of wellbeing while enhancing creativity and productivity in this period of considerable stress.

The upheaval of 2020 gave me a chance to sit under Rocky’s teaching three times per week. I have found kundalini yoga helped me in ways I could not have anticipated: the emphasis on breath has made wearing masks easier, the stretching has kept back pain at bay during long zoom calls, and the meditations have delivered deep and long sleep. Of course, the sculpting of my body shape hasn’t hurt my spirits, either! The combination of self-care and Rocky care has turned a hard time into a time of gro… Read more

Yesterday’s performance was simply stunning, enjoyable, heart-warming and lovely. Jeff and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves… Charlie Creasy’s arrangements are brilliant. The Irving Berlin Songbook contains some real memorable, beautiful pieces. Thanks for stirring our hearts with the group sing-along of God Bless America. I do hope you all get to perform this again. I know this was quite the undertaking for you along with production. My personal thank-you and big hugs for a beautiful, memorabl… Read more

I like the focus on breathing that is a part of Kundalini Yoga. With consistent practice, I find my breathing is smoother and deeper and I am more aware of the quality of my breathing and of the times when I stop breathing. In addition, I stand taller, am more aware of my posture.

What I love most about Rocky’s Kundalini Yoga sessions is that they made yoga accessible for me. Rocky made me welcome, suggested modifications and was so encouraging that it made me feel more confident. Rocky’s personal touch, deep knowledge of kundalini and zest for us all to live better is habit-forming (in a good way!). The breath work has eased my asthma symptoms greatly, which keeps me coming back for more!

Rocky! Your gift of 1000 days of yoga is the most meaningful and long lasting gift I have ever received. I will be forever grateful. I loved the questions and was pleased I had clear answers to most. I found them so thought provoking that I just read the first set to (family) as a new years gift. I’m looking forward to seeing you in person and giving you 2 years of hugs.… just a warning!
