Enroll today!

No other course will more thoroughly transform the way you see, understand, and practice yoga.

Created and taught by Rod Stryker, one of the world‘s leading yoga and meditation teachers, this course guides you deep into the science of practice. You'll progress through the essentials of traditional knowledge, the key teachings of Yoga, Tantra and Ayurveda. Direct experience prepares you to learn the alchemy of these three "sister sciences," and how they inform the "why's" and "how's" of practice. Why do some practices make you feel differently than others? How do you design the most effective and efficient way to achieve specific goals from a given practice? Vinyasa Krama provides the keys to answering these questions, walking you step-by-step toward effortlessly unlocking the potential of practice. 

Its course curriculum, 150-plus page manual, guided practices (asana, pranayama and meditation), integrated lectures and study material move you through time-tested teachings that are the basis for masterfully applying the principles and practices of the yoga tradition––that will take your practice or teaching to the next level. By the end of this course, you will understand the foundations of yoga therapy and the essentials for positively affecting your––or your students’––life. 

Vinyasa Krama (“wise progression”) is the science of sequencing.

Rod has designed a curriculum to ensure that you can systematically design classes to achieve specific goals, through a carefully crafted progression––an arc with a seamless beginning, middle and end. Your study of Vinyasa Krama includes the time-tested systems of:

  • Ayurveda––the science of wellbeing
  • Pranayama––the science of breath
  • Asana––the methodology related to our bodily systems
  • Meditation––the science of mind, and ultimately, soul
  • Tantra––the ancient tradition that weaves together the worlds of spirit, energy and matter

  • You have exceptional skills that you can apply to group and individual classes. 
  • You are able to convey the "essence of yoga."
  • You can design practices for specific needs.

My Approach...

I led my first teacher training in 2002. Within a decade the widespread popularity of yoga would arrive. Before long, countless varieties of “Yoga Teacher Trainings” would proliferate. In my eyes, many of yoga's most profound elements were being lost: its philosophical framework, meditative and contemplative roots, essentially, yoga as a holistic and comprehensive approach to total wellbeing. 

Witnessing its many "modern" adaptations, I became even more committed to sharing what I had learned and what had touched me so deeply about the practice. I dedicated myself to share and train those who wished to understand––and potentially teach––yoga in a tradition-based approach that, at the same time, was accessible, powerful and most relevant. To those ends, it was essential to train teachers who prioritized being exceptional practitioners first, in other words, to ensure that they embodied what they aspired to teach.

I was privileged to meet and train many extraordinary individuals who, I would watch grow into extraordinary teachers. They collectively helped me understand that teaching was indeed, alchemy.

Every authoritative teacher is necessarily unique. Each is an amalgam, a dynamic blend of distinct life experiences, personal practice, deep study of time-tested knowledge and methodology, all in the melting pot of sustained personal growth. All of it is the necessary alchemy––of what distinctly confers authority onto a teacher.

This is the ethos at the heart of Tantra Yoga Alchemy's courses and trainings.

Kind Words

“Accessible…”

“The Vinyasa Krama module was deep, but at the same time accessible. I have seen my technique of teaching become more informed and I am becoming a better teacher as I continue to integrate what I have learned.”

Dustie

“Well Designed...”

“I appreciate how [Rod] continues to emphasize the deepening of the more subtle aspects of our yoga practice and to focus more on pranayama and meditation...as very little asana is needed, especially when it is designed so well. This is where the true gold is!”

Sally

“Inspirational...”

“I thought I knew a lot about sequencing. My avidya (not knowing) was profound on this topic. If you want to become an extraordinary teacher or deepen your personal practice by several levels, Rod's teachings are inspirational and transforming."
