$129 USD free today for members!
High quality courses and classes with experienced and authentic instructors.

Course Overview

Cultivate profound wisdom and expanded consciousness through tantric meditation.

The etymology of tantra—tan (to expand) and tra (an instrument)—means, an instrument for expansion, awareness, and wisdom. This course, guided by tantric scholar Christopher (Hareesh) Wallis, brings the wisdom of yoga to life.

Unlike many branches of yoga that require rigorous discipline, the tantric path embraces the "householder" lifestyle and welcomes practitioners who have homes, families, jobs, etc. Tantra was designed to weave spiritual presence into full lives with short, accessible, and potent practices.

Explore the rich history of tantra, delve into sacred texts, and experience six central micro-meditations that can lead to a spiritually-awakened life.
