Give yourself a foundation for the lifelong personal practice and study of Tantric Meditation.

This training is for new & seasoned practitioners who desire to connect more deeply with the Truth of who they are.

This self-paced online certification course provides students with the foundational understanding of Tantric meditation and the tools to cultivate both a disciplined personal practice & the ability to share that practice with others.

Students of this program have an opportunity to become familiar with and enrich their own perspective through the lens of Tantra & meditation. We do not promote our School as a belief system or as a substitute for religion, but rather encourage every student to weave what they learn in our programs into their world views, spiritual practices, religious systems, and lives.

Through integrating these teachings into your life, you will recognize your individual purpose and passion, and step boldly into your truth and power.

 

The intention of this program is to offer you the tools, techniques, and opportunities that allow you to find your unique approach to practice, and, if you choose, to share it with the world. We provide tools and training for those who desire to teach and to support those who are seeking to ask questions, deepen their practice, and share it with others.
