Ascension of Intimacy School of Tantra

Level II · The Path of Transmission

Professional Tantra Apprenticeship

“The second initiation is responsibility.”

A six-month advanced apprenticeship for Level I graduates called to guide individuals, couples, and groups through the territories of intimacy, relationship, embodiment, sexuality, and personal transformation.

Having first learned to live the work, you now begin learning how to carry it for others.

Through professional methodology, coaching and facilitation practice, ethical discernment, supervised practicum, business formation, and embodied leadership, you will develop the skills and capacities required to transmit the work with depth, clarity, and integrity.

Successful completion of the Personal Tantra Apprenticeship is required for admission to Level II.

Graduates become

Certified Tantra Coaches & Facilitators

From embodiment to transmission

Guiding another human being is a different order of responsibility.

Level I asks you to enter the teachings through your own body, relationships, patterns, desires, and lived experience.

Level II begins when that personal foundation becomes the ground from which you may serve others.

Transformation alone does not prepare a person to guide.

Professional practice requires the ability to listen beyond words, recognize the limits of your role, respond to complexity without imposing your own experience, and remain present when another person enters emotionally, relationally, or energetically charged territory.

The Professional Tantra Apprenticeship is where embodied knowledge begins to take the form of method, skill, ethical discernment, and responsible transmission.

You learn how to guide individuals, couples, and groups; design practices and transformational containers; work consciously with intimacy, sexuality, relationship, energy, and emotional experience; and create structures that support meaningful integration.

You also begin shaping the professional form through which your work will enter the world.

For some apprentices, this means building a private coaching or facilitation practice.

For others, Tantra enters an existing body of work in therapy, healing, education, leadership, creativity, community, or conscious entrepreneurship.

You are not trained to imitate another practitioner or deliver a fixed script.

You are invited to develop your own professional voice while remaining grounded in the principles, methodology, ethical standards, and lineage of the School.

Transmission asks for refined perception: the ability to recognize what is unfolding beneath the surface, remain steady within complexity, and respond with presence, discernment, skill, and care.

  • This is where the apprentice begins becoming a practitioner.

Who is ready to enter Level II?

A professional calling asks for more than desire.

Some apprentices complete Level I feeling deeply fulfilled by the personal journey.

Others begin to sense that the work wants to move beyond their own life and enter relationship with the lives of others.

The impulse may appear as a desire to coach, facilitate, teach, lead groups, work with couples, or bring Tantric principles into an existing profession.

Yet professional readiness is revealed through more than enthusiasm.

It emerges through the capacity to remain present with complexity, receive reflection without defensiveness, recognize the limits of your role, and hold another person’s experience without making it about your own.

You may be ready to enter Level II if:

The work has become embodied

The teachings have begun shaping the way you relate, communicate, make choices, establish boundaries, and meet intensity.

You understand that professional authority grows from lived integration rather than information alone.

A genuine calling is forming

You feel drawn to guide individuals, couples, or groups through the territories of intimacy, sexuality, relationship, embodiment, and personal transformation.

This calling may be newly emerging or may already live within an existing practice, profession, or body of work.

You are willing to practice publicly

You are ready to move beyond private understanding and begin developing your skills through demonstration, peer practice, supervised facilitation, feedback, and assessment.

Professional formation requires visibility.

You will be asked to practice before you feel entirely polished and allow your capacities to develop through direct experience.

You can receive reflection

You are willing to discover where your perception is clear and where personal history, projection, attachment, ambition, or unconscious pattern may influence the way you guide.

Feedback becomes part of the apprenticeship rather than a judgment of your value.

You respect the gravity of intimate work

You understand that work involving sexuality, trauma, desire, relationship, power, and vulnerability requires careful boundaries, ethical discernment, scope awareness, and personal responsibility.

You are prepared to place the integrity of the work above urgency, performance, or professional image.

You want to develop your own professional form

You may wish to build a private practice, guide couples, lead workshops, create retreats, or integrate Tantra into therapy, coaching, healing, education, leadership, creativity, or conscious entrepreneurship.

You are ready to discover the form that genuinely belongs to you.

You are ready to serve the work

Professional formation changes the center of the inquiry.

Level I asks:

What is this teaching awakening in me?

Level II asks:

What capacities must I develop to meet another human being with clarity, responsibility, and skill?

Admission to Level II considers the whole journey of Level I: participation, integration, relational maturity, ethical awareness, professional intention, and demonstrated readiness for greater responsibility.

  • Completion of Level I makes you eligible to apply.
  • Readiness opens the next threshold.

What you will develop as a practitioner

Professional presence is built through practice, reflection, and responsibility.

Level II develops the capacities required to guide people through intimate and transformational work with greater precision, maturity, and ethical awareness.

You will learn to perceive multiple layers of experience at once: what a person is saying, what the body is communicating, how the nervous system is responding, what is occurring within the relationship, and where your own interpretations may be entering the process.

Coaching Intelligence

Develop the ability to listen beneath the surface of a person’s story, ask questions that deepen awareness, and recognize the patterns, contradictions, desires, and emerging possibilities within their experience.

Learn to guide inquiry without prescribing a life, imposing your worldview, or rushing toward resolution.

Embodied Facilitation

Learn to facilitate practices involving breath, movement, sensation, energy, emotional awareness, communication, and relational presence.

Develop the capacity to give clear instructions, track the experience as it unfolds, adjust a practice when necessary, and support meaningful integration afterward.

Working with Individuals

Learn to create a coherent coaching journey shaped around the individual’s intentions, history, capacity, and current threshold.

Explore session structure, assessment, goal formation, practice selection, pacing, reflection, and continuity across a longer body of work.

Working with Couples

Develop the ability to perceive the relationship as a living system rather than reducing every challenge to one partner’s behavior.

Study relational dynamics, conflict, intimacy, sexuality, polarity, boundaries, communication, rupture, repair, and the conscious creation of agreements.

Trauma-Informed Discernment

Deepen your understanding of nervous-system responses, protective strategies, emotional activation, and the ways trauma may shape intimacy, sexuality, and relationship.

Learn to recognize when to proceed, slow down, modify an experience, refer to another professional, or remain within a clearly defined educational and coaching role.

Energetic Responsibility

Develop greater sensitivity to the energetic field created between practitioner and client.

Explore projection, attraction, resonance, transference, authority, dependency, emotional contagion, and the practitioner’s responsibility to maintain clarity within highly charged relational spaces.

Ethics, Boundaries & Scope of Practice

Learn to create clear agreements around consent, confidentiality, communication, touch, payment, availability, professional relationships, and the limits of your role.

Ethics become a living form of discernment rather than a list of rules consulted only when something goes wrong.

Practice & Experience Design

Learn to select, adapt, and sequence practices according to the person, couple, group, and purpose of the work.

Develop sessions, rituals, workshops, and longer transformational journeys that have a clear intention, coherent progression, and meaningful process of integration.

Group Facilitation & Leadership

Develop the capacity to guide groups while remaining attentive to individual experience, collective dynamics, safety, pacing, participation, and the integrity of the shared field.

Learn to work with difference, uncertainty, resistance, emotional intensity, and the unexpected intelligence that emerges within a group.

Professional Voice & Methodology

Clarify the particular territories, questions, and communities your work is called to serve.

You develop a professional voice that is distinctly your own while remaining grounded in the principles, methodology, ethical standards, and lineage of the School.

Business, Value & Sacred Exchange

Explore the practical foundations of creating a professional practice: offers, pricing, client pathways, communication, enrollment, boundaries, visibility, and sustainable exchange.

Learn to build structures capable of supporting both the integrity of the work and the realities of professional life.

Practitioner Self-Awareness

Develop an ongoing relationship with your own motives, vulnerabilities, projections, ambitions, limits, and evolving edges.

The practitioner is part of every relational field they enter. Your capacity to recognize your own influence becomes one of the central instruments of the work.

These capacities develop through teaching, observation, peer practice, supervised facilitation, feedback, professional reflection, and direct experience.

Certification reflects the ability to bring them together within real human encounters, where no script can anticipate everything that may arise.

How professional formation unfolds

From embodied knowledge to practiced capacity.

Level II does not ask you to become professionally confident before you begin.

It creates a progressive structure through which knowledge becomes method, method becomes practice, and practice gradually develops into professional capacity.

Throughout the six months, apprentices move between advanced study, observation, experimentation, facilitation, feedback, reflection, and supervised experience.

Each stage prepares the ground for the next.

  1. Advanced study

    Understanding the practitioner’s role

    You enter a professional curriculum devoted to coaching, facilitation, ethics, trauma-informed discernment, work with individuals and couples, leadership, business formation, and the realities of carrying intimate transformational work.

    The teachings provide frameworks for recognizing what is happening within a session, relationship, group, or professional container.

    You also examine the limits of the practitioner’s role, the influence of personal perception, and the responsibilities created when another person places trust in your guidance.

  2. Teaching, observation & demonstration

    Learning to perceive the work in motion

    Live sessions include professional teaching, case exploration, demonstrations, and analysis of the decisions made within a coaching or facilitation process.

    You learn to observe more than the visible technique.

    • What is the practitioner tracking?
    • Why is a particular question asked?
    • When does a practice deepen the process?
    • When is it wiser to pause, redirect, or remain with what has already emerged?

    Observation refines the perception beneath professional skill.

  3. Peer practice

    Developing capacity through direct experience

    Apprentices begin practicing coaching, facilitation, communication, and guided experiences within structured peer settings.

    You learn to prepare a session, establish agreements, guide an inquiry or practice, track the experience, and support integration afterward.

    You also experience the work from the receiving position, developing greater awareness of how language, pacing, presence, and practitioner choices affect another person.

    Peer practice offers a protected field in which skill can develop before it is expected to appear polished.

  4. Feedback & professional reflection

    Seeing what cannot be seen alone

    Practice is followed by reflection and feedback.

    You examine what was effective, what remained unclear, what may have been influenced by projection, and where greater knowledge, structure, sensitivity, or restraint is required.

    You learn to receive feedback as part of professional formation and to offer it to others with precision and respect.

    Over time, reflection becomes an internal discipline rather than something reserved for formal evaluation.

  5. Supervised practicum

    Bringing the work into real encounters

    As your capacities develop, you begin applying them through supervised coaching and facilitation practice.

    The practicum allows you to work with the complexity of real human experience while remaining connected to guidance, review, and professional reflection.

    You begin learning how to respond when a session moves beyond your preparation, when different needs emerge at once, or when the original intention reveals a deeper layer.

    Professional judgment develops through these encounters.

  6. Professional method & offer creation

    Giving your work a coherent form

    Alongside facilitation practice, you begin shaping the professional structures through which your work may enter the world.

    You clarify the people and territories you are called to serve, develop offers, design client journeys, establish agreements, and create practices, sessions, workshops, or programs with a coherent purpose and progression.

    Business formation is approached as part of the practitioner’s responsibility.

    The structures surrounding the work must be capable of holding its depth.

  7. The professional certification retreat

    The culminating rite of passage

    Level II culminates in an in-person retreat devoted to supervised facilitation, leadership, practitioner presence, professional integration, and witnessed practice.

    The retreat brings the different dimensions of the training into one living environment.

    Apprentices guide, respond, adapt, collaborate, receive reflection, and demonstrate the capacities developed throughout the six months.

    Certification is based on the integration of knowledge, skill, ethics, presence, and professional responsibility.

    It is here that the path of transmission becomes visible through practice.

The Level II curriculum

Six advanced modules of professional formation

The Professional Tantra Apprenticeship unfolds through six interconnected modules that build upon the personal foundation established in Level I.

The curriculum moves through wealth and sacred exchange, coaching and facilitation, business formation, complex relational territories, intimate leadership, and the discernment required to carry this work within the modern coaching world.

Each module develops a different dimension of professional capacity while remaining connected to the central question of Level II:

  • How do you bring the work to others with depth, integrity, and responsibility?
  1. Module VII

    Tantric Wealth Consciousness & Sacred Economy

    Explore wealth as a territory of consciousness, energy, service, exchange, and embodied capacity.

    This module examines personal, familial, and cultural patterns surrounding sex, money, receiving, visibility, and expansion.

    You will explore intuitive pricing, sacred exchange, ethical sales, the practical and energetic dimensions of Tantric business, and the structures required to create prosperity without abandoning the integrity of your work.

  2. Module VIII

    Teaching Tantra: Coaching & Facilitation

    Develop the foundations of coaching, teaching, and facilitation within intimate and transformational work.

    Explore the distinctions between coaching, therapy, mentorship, and education; learn to design coaching containers and Tantric practices; and develop skills for working with individuals, couples, and groups.

    This module also enters the ethics of energetic responsibility, consent, boundaries, bodywork, integration, holding space, and the Ascension of Intimacy methodology.

  3. Module IX

    Tantric Business, Ideal Clients, and Your Tantric Offers

    Begin shaping the professional form through which your work will enter the world.

    Clarify whom you are called to serve, recognize who is outside the appropriate scope of your practice, and develop offers aligned with your skills, experience, and evolving professional identity.

    You will explore program design, client pathways, professional agreements, confidentiality, contracts, pricing, enrollment, ethical sales, visibility, referrals, marketing, and the business archetype through which you naturally lead.

  4. Module X

    Sustainable Intimacy and Intimate Challenges

    Study the capacities and agreements that allow intimacy to remain alive through time, difference, change, and complexity.

    Explore truth, growth, compatibility, loyalty to self, long-term partnership, sexual challenges, relationship models, emotional and social intimacy, communication, and the many seasons relationships may move through.

    This module prepares practitioners to meet intimate challenges without forcing every person or relationship into one prescribed model.

  5. Module XI

    Intimate Leadership & the Leadership of Sacred Union

    Explore the movement from personal mastery into relational, professional, and cultural leadership.

    Study self-leadership, inner authority, feminine and masculine leadership, Sacred Union as a relational architecture, and the qualities required to build trust, coherence, responsibility, and shared vision.

    Through archetypal inquiry, deconditioning, and reflection, you begin identifying your distinctive leadership signature and the form of transmission that belongs to you.

  6. Module XII

    The Shadow of the Coaching Industry & Inner Discernment as a Tantric Leader

    Enter an honest examination of the structural, relational, psychological, and energetic shadows of the modern coaching industry.

    This module develops the discernment required to recognize performance, distortion, projection, premature authority, unhealthy power dynamics, and the ways practitioners may unconsciously reproduce the very patterns they intend to transform.

    You are invited to locate yourself clearly within the professional field and anchor leadership in self-honesty, timing, integrity, and lived responsibility.

These modules form the educational foundation of Level II.

Professional capacity is then developed through direct application, peer practice, supervised facilitation, feedback, offer creation, and the Professional Certification Track.

Supervised practice & readiness for certification

Professional capacity is formed through practice.

As each module introduces new professional knowledge and methodology, apprentices begin applying what they are learning through coaching practice, facilitation exercises, observation, feedback, case reflection, and the development of their own professional work.

You learn by preparing, guiding, witnessing, receiving reflection, refining your approach, and returning to the work with greater precision.

Certification is based on demonstrated integration rather than attendance alone.

Throughout Level II, the School considers each apprentice’s capacity to:

  • Establish clear agreements and professional boundaries
  • Facilitate with presence, structure, and sensitivity
  • Receive feedback and refine their approach
  • Recognize projection, activation, and personal influence
  • Remain within an appropriate scope of practice
  • Work responsibly with intimate and relational material
  • Support integration after embodied or emotional experiences
  • Lead without encouraging dependency or unnecessary authority
  • Bring together knowledge, ethics, perception, and practical skill

Apprentices develop at different rhythms.

The practice woven throughout the curriculum makes growth visible, reveals where further formation is needed, and prepares each apprentice for the culminating professional rite of passage: the Level II Certification Retreat.

Its complete experience, inclusions, and certification requirements are described in the retreat section below.

Investment & payment options

Level II: Professional Tantra Apprenticeship

The investment for the six-month Professional Tantra Apprenticeship is:

$6,000

The tuition may be paid in full before Level II begins or arranged through an approved payment plan.

Payment plans may be customized and must be confirmed before the Professional Tantra Apprenticeship begins.

Locked-In Level II Tuition

The $6,000 Level II tuition is locked in for current Level I registrants who successfully complete the Personal Tantra Apprenticeship and are accepted into Level II.

Enrollment in Level I preserves this tuition rate, but admission into the Professional Tantra Apprenticeship remains dependent upon successful completion of Level I and demonstrated readiness for professional formation.

The Level II Certification Retreat

Where professional capacity becomes visible through practice

The Professional Tantra Apprenticeship culminates in an in-person Certification Retreat devoted to facilitation, leadership, supervised practice, ethical responsibility, and the integration of the Level II journey.

Throughout the six-month training, apprentices develop their professional capacities through study, demonstration, peer practice, case reflection, feedback, and experiential assignments woven into the curriculum.

The retreat brings these dimensions together within a concentrated living environment.

Apprentices are invited to guide, respond, adapt, collaborate, receive reflection, and demonstrate how they bring knowledge, presence, ethics, and practical skill into real human encounters.

  • This is the culminating rite of passage from apprentice to certified practitioner.

The Retreat Experience

The Level II retreat may include:

  • Supervised coaching, facilitation, and space holding practices
  • Practice guiding embodied, energetic, and relational experiences

Any touch-based training is clothed, nonsexual, clearly guided, and entered through active consent. Apprentices may modify or decline any exercise.

Witnessed professional practice

Professional work unfolds in circumstances that cannot always be predicted in advance.

  • A question may reveal a deeper relational pattern.
  • An embodied practice may evoke emotion or nervous-system activation.
  • A couple may arrive with conflicting needs.
  • A group may respond differently from what the facilitator expected.

The retreat allows apprentices to practice meeting these moments while remaining connected to professional guidance and reflection.

It requires the capacity to remain present, recognize what is happening, respond responsibly, receive feedback, and refine one’s approach.

The School considers each apprentice’s ability to:

  • Establish clear agreements and professional boundaries
  • Facilitate with presence, structure, and sensitivity
  • Remain within an appropriate scope of practice
  • Adapt when a process unfolds differently than expected
  • Practitioner presence, pacing, language, and integration skills
  • Lead without encouraging dependency or unnecessary authority
  • Communicate practices with clarity and precision
  • Recognize activation, projection, and personal influence
  • Work responsibly with intimate and relational material
  • Support integration after embodied or emotional experiences
  • Receive feedback and apply it constructively
  • Bring together knowledge, ethics, perception, and practical skill

When further formation is needed, the School may recommend additional practice, supervision, or assessment before certification is granted.

Leadership in a living field

The retreat also develops the practitioner’s capacity to work within a group.

Apprentices may lead practices, contribute to collaborative experiences, facilitate reflection, and participate in the creation of a coherent learning environment.

This reveals another dimension of professional formation: the ability to remain aware of individual needs while also perceiving the larger field.

Leadership becomes visible through preparation, responsiveness, boundaries, communication, collaboration, and the quality of presence a practitioner brings into the room.

Retreat location and timing

The retreat venue, dates, accommodation structure, and final investment are determined after the Level II cohort has formed.

This allows the School to select a setting appropriate to the final group size, accessibility needs, and professional training requirements.

Complete details will be communicated near the beginning of Level II, allowing apprentices sufficient time to prepare and arrange travel.

The retreat carries a separate investment and is not included in Level II tuition.

The retreat investment includes

  • The complete professional retreat program
  • Dedicated spaces for training, practice, feedback, and ceremony
  • All teaching, facilitation, supervision, and guided experiences
  • Accommodation at the retreat venue, typically shared or standard lodging
  • Three daily meals during the retreat
  • Professional practice and certification materials
  • Certification assessment and completion process

Travel to and from the retreat venue is not included.

Depending on the venue, optional upgrades such as private accommodation, additional mentorship, bodywork, or integration support may be offered separately.

Certification requirement

Participation in the Level II Certification Retreat is required to complete the Professional Tantra Apprenticeship and receive certification as a:

Certified Tantra Coach & Facilitator

Completion of the curriculum and attendance at the retreat do not automatically guarantee certification.

Certification is granted when the apprentice demonstrates sufficient integration, ethical awareness, professional judgment, facilitation capacity, relational maturity, and readiness to carry the work responsibly.

The retreat marks the completion of the Apprenticeship and the beginning of professional practice as a living path of continued study, supervision, discernment, and development.

Lana Elco smiling, one hand on her heart

Your professional certification

The completion of training. The beginning of practice.

Graduates who successfully complete the Level II curriculum, supervised practice, professional assignments, participation requirements, and Certification Retreat may receive the designation:

Certified Tantra Coach & Facilitator

This certification recognizes demonstrated capacity in coaching, facilitation, relational intelligence, embodied and energetic practice, ethical discernment, practitioner self-awareness, professional boundaries, and work with individuals, couples, and groups.

Certification is based on readiness and demonstrated integration, rather than attendance or completion of educational materials alone.

The School may recommend additional practice, supervision, assignments, or assessment when further professional formation is needed.

From apprentice to practitioner

The work takes a different form through every person who carries it.

Professional formation does not produce identical practitioners.

Each graduate brings a distinct history, presence, body of knowledge, community, and relationship with the territories of Tantra.

  • For one practitioner, the work may take form through private coaching.
  • For another, through couples work, Sacred Union, or relational education.
  • For another, through workshops, retreats, leadership, or the integration of Tantric principles into an existing profession.

What connects them is the foundation beneath the work: personal embodiment, sustained study, ethical responsibility, and the capacity to meet another human being with presence and discernment.

The School provides a shared educational foundation.

The professional expression that grows from it belongs to the practitioner.

The second threshold

The work now asks to move through you.

There comes a point when personal transformation begins asking for form, language, skill, and responsibility.

Level II is the threshold where embodied knowledge becomes professional capacity.

  • Where you learn to listen beyond the visible story.
  • Where intuition is refined through method.
  • Where presence is strengthened by practice.
  • Where your emerging work is tested through relationship, feedback, ethical inquiry, and real human complexity.

You will be asked to guide before everything feels polished, to receive reflection without retreating from your authority, and to discover the professional expression that can genuinely belong to you.

Some graduates will create private practices and guide couples, groups, workshops, or retreats.

Others will bring Tantric principles into an existing field of coaching, therapy, education, healing, leadership, creativity, or conscious enterprise.

A select number of graduates may also be invited to work under the umbrella of the Ascension of Intimacy School of Tantra as School Coaches, serving clients or contributing to School programs while simultaneously developing their own independent practice.

These invitations are based on demonstrated professional readiness, ethics, relational maturity, area of specialization, alignment with the School, and its evolving needs. Any position within the School is established through a separate professional agreement and is not guaranteed by certification.

The form may differ.

The responsibility remains the same:

To meet another human being with enough presence to perceive what is unfolding, enough knowledge to guide skillfully, and enough discernment to recognize the limits of your role.

  • You entered Level I to live the work.
  • You enter Level II when you are ready to become responsible for how the work reaches others.
  • The path of transmission begins here.

Admission requires successful completion of Level I and demonstrated readiness for professional formation.

Still not sure?

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I move directly into Level II after completing Level I?

Successful completion of the Personal Tantra Apprenticeship makes you eligible to apply for Level II.

Admission also considers your participation, personal integration, relational maturity, ethical awareness, professional intentions, and readiness to begin guiding others.

Some graduates may continue with the next professional cohort. Others may benefit from additional time for personal practice and integration before entering Level II.

Do I need an existing coaching or healing practice?

No.

Some apprentices enter Level II with an established practice in coaching, therapy, healing, education, leadership, embodiment, or another related field.

Others begin without a business and use the six months to clarify their professional direction, develop their first offers, and establish the foundations of a new practice.

Can I integrate Tantra into my existing profession?

Yes, when the integration remains aligned with your qualifications, professional scope, and the laws governing your field.

Level II can support practitioners who wish to bring Tantric principles into coaching, education, relationship work, leadership, healing arts, creativity, community building, or conscious entrepreneurship.

Your professional expression will be shaped by your previous experience, current credentials, capacities, and the people you are prepared to serve.

When do apprentices begin practicing?

Professional practice begins gradually and is woven throughout all six modules.

As new methodology is introduced, apprentices apply what they are learning through peer coaching, role-play, guided facilitation, case reflection, homework assignments, feedback, and the development of their own professional work.

The purpose is to build capacity progressively rather than waiting until the end of the program to begin practicing.

Do I need to know exactly what I want to offer before entering?

No.

You may arrive with an established professional direction, an early idea, or a calling that has not yet taken a clear form.

Throughout Level II, you will explore the people and territories you feel prepared to serve and begin developing private sessions, coaching pathways, workshops, programs, retreats, or other professional experiences aligned with your capacities.

Am I required to build a business?

No.

Level II includes professional and business formation because every practitioner needs clear structures around scope, agreements, pricing, consent, communication, and ethical exchange.

You may build a new practice, integrate the work into an existing profession, create occasional educational experiences, or allow the training to inform another form of leadership and contribution.

Is professional certification guaranteed when I complete the program?

No.

Certification is based on demonstrated integration, ethical awareness, professional judgment, relational maturity, facilitation capacity, participation, and readiness to carry the work responsibly.

Completing the curriculum and attending the retreat do not automatically guarantee certification.

How long will I have access to the training materials?

Level II Apprentices will have twelve months of access to Level II materials after completing Level II Program.

How do I apply for Level II?

Level II applications are available to graduates who have successfully completed the Personal Tantra Apprenticeship.

The application and conversation are combined into one process. You will share your professional intentions, existing experience, areas of interest, and the form of work you may wish to develop, then book a personal conversation with Lana or a member of the School.

Admission is offered when the recognition of readiness and alignment is mutual.
