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 âYoga Teacher Trainingsâ 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.Â
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 understandââand potentially teachââyoga 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 alchemyââof what distinctly confers authority onto a teacher.
This is the ethos at the heart of Tantra Yoga Alchemy's courses and trainings.

âWell Designed...â
âI 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!â
