š« One Day ā¢ Two Workshops ā¢ Choose Your Medicine š«
Step Into the Fire, the crucible where awareness devours conditioning, fear burns to ash & joy ignites.
This one-day immersion with Kara-Leah weaves together two potent workshops: Traditional Tantra + UcchÄra practice in the morning, and Dancing the Dragon in the afternoon. Do one, or dive into both for the full fire.
š„ 9am - 12pm ā¢ Traditional Tantrik Teachings for the Modern Yogi including UcchÄra Practice
You say youāre on the spiritual path ā but are you really? Or are you just living a spiritual lifestyle?
The litmus test is this: do you LIVE the teachings that lead to awakening and liberation?
When the sh*t hits the fan in work, money, health, relationships, sex, or creativity, thatās the moment to apply the teachings and turn chaos into awakening.
Discover HOW to do that in this morning session, including receiving teachings on UcchÄra Practice - the daily practice of Tantrik initiates in the 11th Century (more or less).
Kara-Leah was initiated into this practice by Christopher Tompkins in 2010, and completed a 1000 Day Practice of it in 2021. See the discussion for more info on UcchÄra Practice and how it impacts practitioners.
Expect to leave with fewer illusions, a practice that eats your sh*t alive, and a clear sense of how to live the teachings for real.
š„ 1:30 pm - 5 pm ā¢ How to Embody the Dancing the Dragon Approach to Life and Yoga
Get ready to move, explore, play, and crack open joy and bliss through prayer, yoga asana, trance dance, martial arts, and meditation.
Learn the core principles of Dancing the Dragon so you can tap the inherent joy of being in every moment.
Discover how to weave these principles into your movement practice ā whether yoga, dance, martial arts, Tai Chi, or even sex. (Sure, sex is absolutely a movement practice!)
Kara-Leah awakened to KundalinÄ«-Åakti in 2000 and has spent the last 25 years integrating that experience and cultivating a symbiotic relationship with Her. Dancing the Dragon flows from this journey and is accessible to anyone, whether they experience KundalinÄ« or not.
She is influenced by her trainings in Prana Flow and Yoga Trance Dance with Shiva Rea, and Budokon Yoga with Cameron and Melayne Shayne.
Dancing the Dragon heals and rehabilitates injury and illness, boosts life-force and vitality, clears the nÄįøÄ«s, nourishes joint health, and can unleash fierce waves of joy and bliss.
It's also fun as f*ck. Come play.
