Hargopal Kaur Khalsa
Guest Teacher and Healer
Hargopal Kaur studied Physics to make sense of what is. That questioning mind led her to Kundalini Yoga and the wisdom of Yogi Bhajan’s teachings. There was a deeper recognition and an actual experience that “what is” is all interconnected – traveling from theory to knowing. The next step was Sat Nam Rasayan, taught by Guru Dev Singh. This ancient healing modality is based on emptiness, called shunya. Diving into emptiness, while actually taking quite a lot of meditative commitment, has made it possible to engage and catch glimpses of both the known and unknown. Or at the least, to take steps in that direction. The universe then pointed Hargopal in the direction of family constellations, a systemic approach to healing trauma and injustice that was developed by Bert Hellinger. With opportunities to teach and provide private healing sessions, Hargopal continues her journey, opening to what was, what is, and what will be.

Japjeet Kaur is the Head of School and has had a committed career at the school. She joined MPA in 2016 as the Marketing and Fundraising Assistant and then became the Director of Residential Life and in January 2021 became the Head of School.
