Nov/Dec 2027 | Mantra, tantra & non-dual philosophy
30-hour Online CPD Training, 28/29th November, & 12th/13th December 2026 (via Zoom)Explore the foundations of non-dual tantric philosophy through the pathways of somatic yoga, mantra, meditation and Bhakti. To live, move, listen and practice as an ode to the alive, awake, animate Now;
the slow, steady, deliberate return;
Sometimes sung, sometimes silent,
Always holy.
Explore the foundations of non-dual tantric philosophy Through the pathways of somatic yoga, mantra, meditation and Bhakti.
The 2 live weekends will be a deep-dive into non-dual tantric philosophy; an ancient tradition which attunes us to the alive, awake, aware reality that pulses through every moment. Tantra understands that what we call the 'I-Self' is really just a series of patterns organised around our past experiences, expressing themselves endlessly into the now. Yoga is a system designed to help us identify & integrate behavioural & thought patterns that contribute to suffering, & take action to shift them to an experience of Life that invites more freedom; freedom in body, mind, movement, our relationship to Life and the land we live on.
Together these pathways combine to create a layered roadmap back into a way of living that inspires deep reverance and belonging.Using somatic yoga, pranayama, mantra & meditation as methods through which these teachings can be felt and experienced in the body/mind system, this weekend is an opportunity to explore these concepts through an experiential immersion into deep listening and embodied understanding. Over the month, we will:-Compare and contrast non-dual tantric teachings with classical yoga philosophy, and explore how threads of both can be woven into somatic and meditative practice to create a cohesive, embodied experience.-Engage in deep listening, physical, meditative & vocal practice & embodied movement to familiarize ourselves with the fundamental ground of awareness that sits beneath all pattern and structural expression of form.-Come into relationship with mantra as both a tool for expression, healing and as direct line of contact to the modes of perception presented in the texts-Commit to regular personal practice-Culminate with a KIRTAN practice to offer all of it back to the larger field of devotional resonance that surrounds us.
This is a space where we get to explore all the ways that Aliveness unfolds through and as us; through the movement of our limbs and longings; through the urges, felt senses and curiosities that propel us forwards into each next impending moment.
Leaning on the wisdom of sages, devotion to the Goddess, and our own flesh bodies; we gather in to inquire and embody what it means to live closer to the Truth of the moment. Coming back in and down, in and down; time and time again - as many times as it takes.Topics covered:
-Tattwas & Samkhya Philosophy-The Language of Yoga - Introduction to Sanskrit-Recognition Theory & the Yogic View of the Mind- The Goddess in indigenous belief systems - Eco-Somatics & Tantra as methods for both individual liberation & decolonisation-Somatic Movement, basic neurocellular patterns, & traditional yoga techniques-Philosophy & group discussion/sharing sessions-Kirtan & Devotional Practice as pathways to liberation**Includes a 30+ page pdf manual Suitable for:Anyone with an interest in experiencing these practices and developing a deeper understanding of their application in a yoga setting. A YT200 or higher is recommended but if you don’t have this please just reach out and we can chat. Please note: the training is not a typical ‘teacher training’ in that I will not be testing your ability to teach or recall any of the information/content. It is best approached as an opportunity to deepen your current understanding and embodied experience of these concepts, so that if and when you do teach or speak to any of them in spaces you hold, you will feel anchored in your own experience.Times and Pricing:

“The process of embodiment is a being process, not a doing process. It is not a thinking process; it is an awareness process in which the guide and witness dissolve into cellular consciousness.”
