Authentic Tantra® is an innovative yogic practice which weaves ancient, lineage-based tantric practices with somatic science and holistic methods for the purpose of catalyzing profound transformation of body, mind, spirit, and sex.
Practicing Authentic Tantra® awakens the innate potential for healing that is embedded in human sexuality when it is honored as integral to our sacred, human existence and practiced with awareness, compassion, and loving-kindness.
The modality is based on ancient and contemporary knowledge about how socio-cultural conditioning causes emotional, mental and physical suffering, specifically in the area of sexuality.
In this context “sexuality” is understood as a fundamental part of human existence, including but not limited to genital stimulation and arousal, our feelings, needs, belief systems, and how we relate to our selves and others.
Socio-cultural conditioning shapes the way we think, feel and act. At its core is the ignorance that comes with the idea of separation; We believe that our body is separate from our thinking and feeling, that our sexuality is separate from all things sacred, that as individuals we are separate from other beings and from our environment.
In the area of sexuality, ignorance leads to some of the most widespread, violent and many-layered sources of suffering.
We believe that by healing and empowering the individual, we heal, empower, and awaken our communities – thereby healing and empowering our society as a whole.
Using a somatically-based, trauma-informed approach to healing we understand that “the issues are in the tissues”, and true, lasting transformation occurs when we are able to effectively heal and balance the nervous system and gain access to the profound wisdom of the body.
The Authentic Tantra Certification Program is not just a training for “Coaches”.
Our unique 2 phase training process allows you to develop the competency required to confidently support your clients while addressing the sensitive issues of sexuality and trauma.
The Authentic Tantra® modality understands that our TRUE nature is that of love, joy, connection, and pleasure.
Tantric Healing is simply the process of removing “blocks to bliss” so that our authentic, inherently blissful nature can be reclaimed and restored…Naturally.
This is the most comprehensive program you will find in the field of modern Tantra education; combining the most advanced energy healing practices from the Tibetan Tantric and Taoist traditions, with the best contemporary approaches for trauma release.
While becoming a coach for others you will be evolving spiritually, transforming the root causes of what’s holding you back from living your fullest potential. Experience growth and expansion which you can use to help others.
The Tibetan Five Element Tantric Teachings of this modality stem from an unbroken lineage of teachers dating back 2600 years. The Authentic Tantra modality is endorsed by Lama Tashi Dundrup of the Shangpa Kagyu Lineage.
We are dedicated to providing ourselves and our students sustainable ongoing support for healing. You are fully supported by, not only your personal instructor, but our entire team of practitioners, during and after certification.

“I want to say that the teachers of this course have my full support. The transmission of the Five Elements is authentic from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition as they have stated in their advertising and is completely applicable to any healing modality including sexual. Sexual transmission of the 5 element methods are used in Tibetan Buddhist Tradition in special circumstances. Here in the west, they are applied to people generally. This course offers instruction in authentic Tibetan Buddhist practices, woven into this sexual healing modality. It is a valid certification program.”
The Authentic Tantra Certification program is designed specifically for those who are PASSIONATE about liberating themselves, and their communities, from the shackles of sexual ignorance, guilt, fear and shame, and who value the integrity of having time-tested, authentic, lineage-based methods for healing, transformation, and personal growth.
