"I am in your Alchemy of the Chakras Course and I am loving this so much!!! I have had to your lectures on either sitting in front of my computer or in the background of doing stuff around the house.

Alanna, what makes you qualified to lead this course?
My background in yoga and spiritual studies spans nearly two decades, and I have been leading teacher trainings for 15 years. I have written three books on the field of yoga: Myths of the Asanas, Sacred Sound and Yoga Beyond the Mat.

I integrate all these into my understanding of yoga to develop a complete, integrative approach that brings the ancient practice into modern life.
