As above, so below. This tantric yoga training dives deep, creatively unmasking the role of the Divine (both feminine and masculine) in our yoga study and practice. Study the Sacred Fire, including the 10 Wisdom Goddesses, or Maha Vidyas. Not only is the path of Shakti aimed at spiritual awakening, but also supports outer abundance, inner freedom and deep intimacy.
With a treasure trove of practices, meditations, visualizations, mantras, teachings, and beautiful stories, this course is a mini Sri Vidya training and provides practical tools for activating the currents of the Divine in every aspect of your life. Sri Vidya literally means “most powerful and secret knowledge in spiritual world,” and helps you answer the all important question: How do you serve the world selflessly, yet passionately celebrate your life?

About This Training
The Tantric Yoga and the Sacred Fire training dives deep into unmasking the role of Divine in our yoga study and practice. One of the most misunderstood teachings of yoga come from Tantra – a sister science and philosophy that includes Yoga. In this training, we will clear up the confusion around Tantric philosophy, and dive into the study of the sacred in the form of the Sacred Fire, including a study of the 10 Maha Vidyas, or 10 Wisdom Goddesses. Learn who they are, how we can align with their intelligence, and how to help realize that life is a gift!
Led by Tanya Boigenzahn, an Ayurvedic Yoga Therapist, Reiki Master and Healing Touch Certified Practitioner, and Thai Yoga Bodywork Teacher/Therapist, brings not only her feminine and intuitive energy to this training, but also infuses the work with tips, tools, and holistic recommendations for you and your students.
