The Atman Federation offers the possibility to become a fully qualified Tantra teacher through its highly comprehensive Tantra Teacher Training Course. This course is for serious Tantric practitioners who wish to deepen their own understanding about the Tantric system through teaching and guiding others on the Tantric path. The TTTC has been devised by senior Tantra teachers, Advaita and Adina Stoian. Advaita and Adina also teach the TTTC assisted by other senior teachers from within the Atman Federation. Because of its structure, requirements and number of hours of training, the Atman Federation’s Tantra Teacher Training Course is the most indepth course of its kind available worldwide. It is one of the only existing tantra teacher training programs in the world today and the only one that is connected to a specific, ongoing tantra course.
Course Pre-Requisites
To apply for the TTTC you need to be in the Tantra Intensive Course in one of the Atman Federation accredited schools and to be in at least the 3rd year of this course. This assures that the aspirants have already undergone extensive study and practice within the Tantric system and are at a level which is suitable for beginning the intensive teacher training.
It is necessary to sit an admission examination in order to be able to enrol in the course. The exam happens a few months before a new group begins.
