About the teacher

Rod Stryker

Rod Stryker built his teaching, formerly branded ParaYoga and renamed Tantra Yoga Alchemy in 2024, around classical tantric yoga philosophy and technique, taught through the Himalayan Institute lineage and adapted into a structured curriculum for Western students, including a 300-hour online Yoga Teacher Training.

He continues to teach workshops and retreats and offers the Sanctuary app with meditation, yoga nidra and livestreamed classes, alongside his ongoing role at the Himalayan Institute.

Tantra can be described as the science of energy management; there is no energy in the world that is not in your body. Master your body's subtle forces, and you can be more masterful in the way you live. As a result, the stars no longer command you. You command the stars.
