Tantra Practitioner Training

The training begins on February 1st, 2025. Teaching modules conclude March 31st and the final study and assessment period is due for submission by July 30th, 2026. When you provide evidence of completion of all the assessment requirements, you will receive a certificate of completion for the “Embodied Awakening Academy 700-hour Tantra Practitioner Training,” signed by Chantelle Raven, which allows you to start practicing. 

Proof of completion will include submitting your personal and client practice session reflection forms, written question answers for each module, engaging in your support Pod, completing your required Pod Group supervised practice sessions, submitting a final recorded session video filmed at the end of the training, and watching, listening to and reading all content in each module. You will have 4 additional months to submit your final assessment requirements once the teaching modules are  complete i.e. end of July 2026. Extensions can be offered in extenuating circumstances. 

Overall successful completion of the training will be reviewed and assessed within 8 weeks of final submission i.e., if you submit everything by July 30th, you will receive notification of your successful completion and graduation by September 30th. However, you are also welcome to move through the course for personal study and not do the assessment tasks. This just means you won’t be able to practice as a Certified EAA Tantra Practitioner 

The course material for the 18-month training will be 100% online. However, there is an optional add-on to the training, which is a 7-day, in-person retreat, happening in Bali 21-28 June 2025.    

For the 18-month training, some parts are pre-recorded and some parts are live via online teaching sessions where you can hear from Chantelle Raven, Tara Meegan, Erin Fowler, and the EAA team. The live sessions are always recorded and uploaded to the Facebook group, and the learning portal, for later viewing.

You will access the course materials via our Online Learning Portal hosted by LearnDash. The lives and support groups are hosted on Facebook with links to Zoom for the live calls. If you have any technical difficulties our admin team are here to help you.

Take the time to check out the program info and also our website and social media pages to get a sense of the material and what the Academy stands for in the world and how we show up to support people’s Embodied Awakening. This is the foundation and energy that you will be held by during your training, and that you will be practicing within as a Tantric Practitioner, so it’s important you resonate with this. Additionally, you are welcome to book a free clarity and enrollment call with an EAA Senior Team Member to give you the space to ask all your questions and to decide if this program is the right fit for you. 

The Academy fully welcomes and celebrate lesbian, queer, bisexual and pansexual people and any other sexual identities, orientations and choices in this course. We fully embrace and celebrate LGBTQIA+ sexuality and want it to be fully included in Tantric work. In this program, it doesn’t matter what your sexual orientation is. We believe that all sexual orientations are healthy and natural expressions of human sexuality and we are continuously learning and aiming for deeper understanding.

We do acknowledge that the majority of our work comes from heteronormative teachers and traditional systems. As a result, the majority of the language in the program is heteronormative and/or gendered. If you feel okay and safe to adapting that to yourself and to how you might work with LGBTQIA+ clients in the future, then we fully support you joining this program.

If you join the program, we will welcome your feedback on how to be even more inclusive – with the understanding that when you are working with practices in the program, there will often times be heteronormative language. But as you learn the practices, you can easily adapt them to fully support yourself and your clients.

In our material and courses, we use the word woman for any person who identifies as a woman, regardless of their assigned sex at birth and we use the word man for any person who identifies as a man, regardless of their assigned sex at birth. We also fully welcome and celebrate non-binary folks to join this program. We acknowledge that gender is non-binary, fluid, and on a spectrum and support each individual’s right to live in alignment with their gender identity.

That being said, this course is gendered and uses gendered language and our teachings come from heteronormative teachers and traditional Tantric systems. Our desire is to be as inclusive of trans and non-binary folks as possible, but there are current limitations in the program content and material.

For instance, Module 7 covers Tantric Practices for the Feminine and relates to womb and yoni work (Yoni is the Tantric word for vagina). Module 8 covers Tantric Practices for the Masculine and relates to sexual sublimation and self-pleasure work with the lingham (Lingham is the Tantric word for Penis). We currently don’t have specific training for queer, trans and/or non-binary identities.

If you are non-binary or trans, feel into what you need to be safe. If you’re okay working with practices that are labeled “Men’s” and/or “Women’s” in a CIS-gendered, heteronormative, and traditional sense without the mentioning of non-binary or trans people in the content, and you feel supported to navigate and make the content applicable to your clients and community, then this program could work for you. However, if that doesn’t feel like enough safety or acknowledgment, we understand and respect that.
