The Energetic Marriage of East and West

Tantra is the most complex and widely misunderstood branch of Yoga. Tantra is a practice-oriented system and the source and foundation of Hatha Yoga. This training includes a synergistic blend of theory and practice into the techniques of Hatha Yoga according to Tantra. We will explore the foundational text The Hatha Yoga Pradipika to inform and context our exploration. We will also be joined by master teacher Stuart Sovatsky PhD who offers us an interpretative lens in which to integrate and share the teachings.

Open to students and teachers of all levels ready for a journey of self-empowerment and discovery.
