Tantra Yoga and the Awakened Heart

A Weekend Immersion with Rod Stryker

Across the yoga tradition, the heart is described as the seat of our deepest intelligence—an inner sanctuary that clarifies perception, stabilizes emotion––revealing innate joy and freedom. Modern research echoes the ancient teachings: the heart possesses transformative capacities that shape resilience, coherence, and overall well-being. Through a seamless weave of asana, pranayama and meditation, this weekend offers the opportunity to enter the heart and access this sacred ground of practice.

Guided by Rod—one of the West’s most respected teachers of tantra, yoga, and meditation—we'll explore a systematic approach to unlock the heart’s potential. Through specific sequencing linking: movement, posture, pranayama, meditation, and key tantric principles, you will learn how yoga can engage the energetic and psychological pathways that illumine the heart and support emotional steadiness, clarity, and compassion for yourself and others.

Over the course of four sessions, you will progress to:

• Understand the yogic and tantric view of the heart as a source of insight, stability, and transformative power

• Experience practices that elevate coherence, calm, and intuitive intelligence

• Learn specific techniques to shift patterns of mind and emotion. 

• Return to a grounded, open, and centered state

• Gain practical tools to elevate both your personal practice and/or teaching

Whether you are seeking greater resilience or deeper skill in guiding others, this workshop provides a clear, applicable approach to accessing the heart’s wisdom. You’ll leave with practices that continue to reveal gifts long after the weekend, as well as a renewed sense of how yoga can reveal a more joyful, purposeful, and compassionate life.
