Cherie Bianco is a somatic and energetic transformation expert who specializes in aligning the body’s frequency so people can move out of survival and into sovereignty. For more than two decades, and with mulitiple certifications and accreditations, she has woven together the deep heart-path of Sufi mysticism, the power of Kundalini Yoga, the truth-telling of Core Energetics body psychotherapy, and the science of nervous system repair through Kundalini yoga and SuperHealth concepts to create her signature method, Root to Rise: The 3 Rivers of Transformation™.
Cherie's program works like Feng Shui for the human system—clearing emotional debris, dissolving trauma patterns, restoring energetic flow, and awakening the soul’s natural frequency coherence. Clients come to her after trying talk therapy, other forms of yoga, healing, or spiritual work that never reached the root. Through her intuitive Splenic guidance refering to a decision-making process based on intuition and instinct specifically linked to the spleen center and decades of mastery, she helps people release lifelong burdens and rise into the luminous, grounded version of themselves they were always meant to become.
Cherie’s mission is simple:
When you align the body’s frequency, your entire life comes into alignment.
Cherie Bianco is a healer, teacher, and guide whose work seamlessly integrates three transformational modalities: Core Energetic Therapy, Kundalini Yoga, and Shamanic Healing.
With an initial background in massage therapy, Cherie began her journey by exploring how stress, trauma, and emotion reside within the body. She furthered her education by studying directly with the late John Pierrakos, MD, the founder of Core Energetics in New York and California, where she learned to dissolve emotional blocks through movement, breath, and expression.
Her path deepened under the guidance of Alberto Villoldo, PhD, as she trained in the Q’ero shamanic tradition, focusing on working with the luminous energy field to clear imprints, retrieve soul parts, and realign destiny. Additionally, Cherie studied Kundalini Yoga and Mantra with acclaimed master and musician Guru Singh, and with Mukta Kaur Khalsa in SuperHealth-Addiction Behavior Release Therapy, integrating sacred sound and yogic science for nervous system renewal.
Through her signature work, Root to Rise: The 3 Rivers of Transformation, Cherie offers retreats and private sessions that empower participants to release the past, awaken their vitality, and step into their highest potential.

THE BODY— Foundational Lineage & Training
Extensive formal training in:
Specialized certifications in:
Advanced training in:
No plant medicine, no psychedelics — pure, natural, safe, intuitive inner work.

The sound bowls are the place where everything you’ve done in the class comes home to the body. After the breathwork, the movement, the emotional release, and the frequency-shifting practices, the bowls act as the integrator — the moment your system reorganizes itself into a higher state.
Think of this as Feng Shui for your inner world:
the bowls harmonize what’s been stirred, they clear what’s been released, and they align the currents of prana, chi, and subtle energy into coherence.
During Savasana — the most essential part of the entire class — you lie comfortably on your back as your nervous system drops into deep rest. With your eyes gently closed and your breath soft and slow, your body enters a receptive state where true healing can occur.
Then the sound begins.
The crystalline tones travel through the room and through your body, not as music, but as frequency medicine.
They reach the places words cannot reach, balancing the chakras, resetting the subtle body, and guiding the mind into stillness.
These bowls are not entertainment.
They are instruments of alignment, recalibration, and integration.
Every frequency they release is chosen intentionally to support the work we’ve done — grounding the system, opening the heart, clearing emotional residue, and elevating your energetic field.
This is a journey of sound, stillness, and soul.
A remembrance.
A return.
A full-body integration of the work you came to do.
It is unlike anything else — and it is always the moment where transformation settles in.

I open each class with a mantra chant called Adhi Mantra. This is a Tune -IN, it sets intention and Opens the Sacred Space.
ONG NAMO GURU DEV NAMO
Loosely translated:
I pray and open to my inner Teacher and all the Teachers of the Golden Thread of Truth.
These Breathing exercises and the breath provides power to open the lungs and activate the diaphragm. We are activating the Parasympathetic Nervous System so that your body relaxes and becomes more aware. So one can go deeper into a posture and your awareness and energy can be moved, elevated, and transformed.
Each posture in class is done with a specific breath pattern (Pranayama).
Here are a few breath examples
MANTRA - CHANTING
Every class incorporates the chanting of mantra's. The use of frequency - sound vibration technology, is accessed by chanting sacred words. We use sound as a tool to experience the present moment and shift out of negative thought patterns. Chanting lifts and elevates the spirit and aligns your mind with the vibration of higher emotion- joy, happiness, gratitude, peacefulness, and the divine.
DYNAMIC MOVEMENTS
Each Kundalini Yoga class incorporates a Kriya (series) of movements/postures for a particular effect, a specific focus, and to balance different chakras (energy centers), which help to increase the flow of prana (life force) to various organs and glands within the body. Bandhas (muscle body locks) are often used in Kundalini yoga. There are three, pelvic area, diaphragm, and neck. Bandhas are used to direct energy flow and align ourselves with the body's energy flow to activate the Parasympathetic nervous system.Your experience will vary greatly from class to class, depending on which kriya the teacher decides to teach that day. Movements range from rotating or repetitive spine flexing to more familiar postures, such as cat-cow or downward dog, to lying on the floor and laughing. Expect the unexpected. INWARD GAZE
Directing our gaze - is called Dristhi. We gently close our eyes and turn our focus inward during many exercises. For example, you may be directed to focus your gaze inward towards the 'third eye' between the mid-brow points. This helps to focus the mind and brings us to a more present state of being.
MEDITATION
Every class includes meditation, usually at the end of the class after the kriya. Kundalini Meditations are quite varied and often incorporate a specific breathing exercise, mantra(chant), and mudra (hand gesture). In our classes, meditation ranges from 3 minutes to 11 minutes.
AT YOUR OWN PACE
Many postures and class elements may feel unconventional, and you will be confronted with the choice to either respond with resistance or surrender to the experience and meet your edge. Although tension, pressure, stress, and friction are involved in any exercise, you are encouraged to move at your own pace and modify your body as needed for your body. As you get more familiar with the practice, being present, keeping up, and making conscious decisions to take your body and mind beyond your comfort zone will make all the difference. Meet your edge but at your own pace! Surrendering to the experience will clear fears you didn't know existed, providing you with a powerful connection to a deeper, more natural SELF.

Class consists of six main components, done in the following order:

We always begin a Kundalini Yoga practice with this chanting Adi mantra. It's also called TUNING IN, opening to the sacred space to practice, reciting it 3x.
ADI MANTRA
Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo "I Bow to the Divine Wisdom within".
We always begin a Kundalini Yoga practice with this chanting Adi mantra. It's also called TUNING IN, opening to the sacred space to practice, reciting it 3x.
ADI MANTRA
Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo "I Bow to the Divine Wisdom within".
At the closing of each class this old Irish Blessing Prayer is sung 3x.
MAY THE LONG TIME SUN
May the long-time Sun shine upon you, All Love surround you, and the pure light within you, Guide your way On.
Then we acknowledge, complete and seal the unique experience with the closing chant 3x
SAT NAAM - THE TRUTH IS MY IDENTITY
Sat - rhymes with the word hut.
Naam - rhymes with mom.
Sat Naam is the seed (bij) mantra, meaning that from there, other things grow. When we say "Sat Nam" to one another, we acknowledge the divine truth in our being. The cosmic truth of divinity is that we are one; it is often used upon greeting and departure instead of "hi" and "bye" on any occasion. You can mentally chant Sat on your inhale and Naam on the exhale. This mantra can cut through the mental clutter and bring you back to your truth.
As we chant, the 84 meridian points on the upper palate are stimulated through the movement of chanting. This sends signals to our nervous system and brain, affecting our chemistry and the energy of our body's endocrine and parasympathetic systems. Our whole being vibrates every time we speak, chant, or even think…what would you like to resonate within your being?
Wahee Guru -
Sat NAAM WAHE GURUIt is pronounced like "Wha-hay GuRoo." The tongue flicks the top of the mouth as you chant the 'r' in the guroo. Wahe is like, "WOW!!" It is an exclamation of wonder. There is no 'one' interpretation. Guru brings us out of the darkness of ignorance and into the light of understanding - like a teacher. It can also be seen as coming into the light, elevating our consciousness.
Wahe Guru can be interpreted as any of the following: The Bliss of God "God is great.""I am in ecstasy when I experience the Indescribable Wisdom" (from KRI). I am in bliss coming into the Wondrous Light!In other words, there are infinite ways you could interpret this mantra, for it refers to an infinite experience.
It is said that chanting Wahe Guru is the equivalent of chanting Har 11,000 times. There is no such thing as chanting this mantra too much. Instead, it is often used to express thanks to the Infinite, in celebration of this incredible flow of the divine, and to bow in humility to the wonders of this world. Wahe Guru!!
Guru Guru Wahe Guru
GURU GURU WAHE GURU, GURU RAM DAS GURU calls upon Guru Ram Das in praise of his spiritual guiding light and protective grace.
Siri Gaitri Mantra RA MA DA SA, SA SAY SO HUNG is chanted for healing. Ra is the Sun, Ma is the Moon, Da is the Earth, and Sa is Infinity. Say is the totality of Infinity, and So Hung is "I am Thou." "Ra Ma Da Sa" is the Earth Mantra. and "Sa Say So Hung" is the Ether Mantra.
Panj Shabad
SA TA NA MA expresses the five primal sounds of the universe. "S" is Infinity, "T" is life, "N" means death, and "M" is rebirth. (The 5th sound is "A.") This is one of the most frequently used mantras in Kundalini Yoga. This mantra is used in the Kirtan Kriya, recitation of this mantra along with hand movements helps with memory issues and has strong scientific documentation.
Adi Shakti Mantra
EK ONG KAR, SAT NAM, SIRI WHA (HEY) GURU is very powerful for awakening the Kundalini and suspending the mind in bliss.
Ek means "One, the essence of all"
Ong is the primal vibration from which all creativity flows,
Kar is a "creation,"
Sat "truth,"
Nam "name"
Siri "great,"
Waahaa "ecstasy"
Guru is "wisdom."
Taken all together, means, "There is one Creator whose name is truth. Great is the ecstasy of that Supreme Wisdom"!
This is one of my favorite Mantras.
Chatara Chakara VARTEE The mantra is pronounced: Chattra Chakkra Vartee,Chattra Chakkra Bhugatay Suyumbhav Subhang Sarab Daa Saraab JugatayDukaalang Pranaasee, Diaalang SaroopaySadaa Ang Sangay, Abhangang Bibhootay
Translation: In all directions circulates divine energy. In all directions circulates divine joy. Self-enlightened, in beauty and unity with all existence. Remover of sadness, a manifestation of kindness. Always within everyone, eternal and spectacular. Chatara Chakara Vartee chanting Chattra Chakkra Vartee, you will elevate the frequency in your cells and increase the light around your body so you attract health, goodness, happiness, and protective grace. This is a mantra for complete protection. It removes fear, anxiety, depression, and phobias. It infuses our cells with fearlessness and courage, and listening to it at night is wonderful to create harmony and peace in the subconscious mind while sleeping. It has helped many children who experienced night terrors, as it elevates our frequency during REM sleep periods.

Rumi - Sufi Poet

KUNDALINI ENERGY YOGA, is an ancient technology, using the combination of breath work, movements, silence, awareness and sound to create an Inner experience of the body.
Everything we do in class is designed to open up the circulation of Kundalini Energy flow (prana, life-force) within the body.
Through the two main Energetic Orbits in the body - Macro and Micro, the breath work helps to move and circulate the energy in these two horizontal and vertical energies of Macro and Micro Orbits.
Stated by my teacher Brett Larkin-
"Kundalini is just an Energetic Orbit".
The main Macro Orbit circulates up vertically from the lower spine to the head and down the front of the body, activating the Vagus Nerve - Parasympathetic Nervous system. The second Micro Orbit is activated in the horizontal meridians in the hands, held together in prayer pose, the circulation moves through the arms into the chest, through the heart area activating and opening the Heart Center.
Always remember the words of my teacher - Guru Singh:
"Do what you can do and feel good about that."
A person with limited flexibilities and mobilities can do Kundalini Yoga. Even a person sitting in a wheelchair, one can receive many benefits.
In class, after each movement we experience in silence the inner sensations, allowing us to open up to many new awarenesses. Releasing and letting go of stagnant energy, emotions, feelings and opening up to new creativity levels, flexibilities and vitality.
This inner awareness is what is known as stretching into our Body Glove.
Kundalini translates:
Kunda=Coil and Lini = Line or nerve.

CHANTING / MANTRA is a Sound Vibration Technology.
Your Voice vibration is unique and healing for your own body's constitution. Your authentic voice is unique - No one in the world has it. Using your voice stimulates the throat and the glands in that area of the body.
Chanting activates your Inner Authority awareness and your right to be you. The more your voice is activated, the more inner and outer confidence is developed and discovered bringing more awareness and mindfulness to your life.
Chanting and Singing are different, each with different intentions and outcomes.
Give yourself permission and acceptance to use your voice!
Let go of any judgments. Enjoy!
MANTRA
Man means 'mind.'
Tra means 'wave' or 'projection.'
Mantra
Through chanting specific mantras, we clear away our subconscious blocks, extraneous thoughts, and stories of lower emotional energies like sadness, depression, and anxiety. Instead, we focus on and invoke the elevated consciousness energies we wish to embody, like happiness, joy, and gratitude. As we chant, the 84 meridian points on the upper palate are stimulated through the movement of chanting. This sends signals to our nervous system and brain, which affects our chemistry and the energy of our body's endocrine and parasympathetic systems.
Our whole being vibrates every time we speak, chant, or even think…what would you like to resonate within your being?

ENERGETIC ORBIT CIRCULATION FLOW Vertical and Horizontal Flow, sometimes called the Macro and Micro Orbits. Kundalini Yoga is about accessing that energy circulation flow with inner awareness, breathwork, moving the energy so it moves freely all through the body's emotional and energetic fields as well, with no obstructions. This free flowing circulation creates more balance, health, relaxation, flexibilities and happiness.
