What makes this Integral Esoteric Yoga Course special?
In one sentence, it is the most extensive Yoga course in the world, currently offering over 33 years of study with 48 lessons per year. The topics of this exceptional course cover every area of human life, comprising over 14,500 pages, the size of 5 faculties! (The second largest esoteric yoga course from Georg Feuerstein lasts two years of study with about 1,200 pages of course materials.)
Why Integral?
This course brings together many different forms of traditional yoga, like Hatha Yoga, Karma Yoga, Raja Yoga, Kundalini Yoga just to name a few, in a very comprehensive and remarkable manner. Each of these paths offers rich treasures of wisdom that can support our growth all the way.
On top of that, this course integrates all the aspects of the being, going beyond the physical body. In a time when Yoga has become more and more synonym for stretching exercises and acrobatic poses, this course offers authentic, practical tools in order to also access and master our subtle, energtic, ‘inner resources’. The universe that opens up with the help of these tools goes beyond our imagination: from astonishing creativity, focus and intuition to the highest goal in yoga, the revelation of our true Self – Atman.
Why Esoteric?
The word ‘esoteric’ comes from the Greek esoterikos, meaning ‘within’. Esoteric refers to the aspects which surpass the level of common knowledge. It points to the part which is not always visible at first sight, the part that lies underneath the surface.
This yoga course is brimming with priceless teachings which are part of the mysterious universal wisdom. All we need is to receive and apply them with the right attitude until these seeds of knowledge blossom fully in our being.
In other words, this course is addressing those who are called to dive deeper. Those who have the needed perseverance to get out of their comfort zone and aim for the highest goals of genuine spirituality.
What is missing in modern Yoga?
Yoga is nowadays very fashionable, but there are few places in the West in which this complex, spiritual discipline is taught and practiced according to traditional indications – a fundamental requirement if we want to fully enjoy all its benefits.
The theoretic foundation and the practical traditional keys, especially the esoteric keys, are often missing. But also patience – true Yoga cannot be learned in a few hours, not even a few weeks or months.
Yoga has obvious beneficial effects on the body and mind, but that is just the beginning. From this perspective, this Esoteric Yoga Course stands out through its authenticity and efficacy.
A Yoga School for Life!
In its true essence, Yoga offers a complete path for continuous transformation and self-discovery. As a true spiritual education system, this yoga course does not adapt to modern trends. Neither does it cut off a single inch of the original depth of Yoga. Instead, it gradually reveals to the genuine seeker a unique vastness of authentic tools in order to experience a meaningful life, a life which is truly worth living.
As personal evolution is a continuous process, so this course continues as long as you are willing to learn. Because like life, learning never stops. How far are you willing to reach?

Frequently Asked Questions
display:none;
What is the difference between the Yoga course and the Tantra course?
The Yoga course covers many different aspects and forms of Yoga, such as such as Raja Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Hatha Yoga etc. Tantra is also one of these forms. Thus, the Tantra course implies deepening this particular path of Yoga, with a special focus on embracing all areas of life, including relationships.
Both the Yoga and the Tantra courses build up step by step and both are based on the same fundamental pillars, such as universal principles and yoga techniques. That is why there is some overlap in the content for around the first 18 months of the courses. Later on, the lessons unfold differently.
In the beginning of the Yoga course, there is more focus on preparing the conditions for a shift of perspective, which is supported also by the methods of purification, diets and yogic exercises. In the Tantra course the focus is more on learning how to use life experiences to expand, while being simultaneously relaxed and centred in your core. In this course, you also learn techniques for practising forgiveness, awakening willpower, erotic energies, intuition and many other qualities.
Is it worth joining both Yoga and Tantra Course?
Though there is a slight overlap in the content of the Yoga and Tantra courses in the first 18 months, being based on the same spiritual foundations (see Foundations section for more information), these important courses actually complete and support each other in an organic way and together they offer a wide range of possibilities for growth.
Besides that, you also receive a 50% discount for the Yoga course, when signing up for both.
How do I know that the teachings work?
You don’t need to take our word for it. You can test them through your direct experience. All you need to do is join with openness and thirst for ‘there is more to life than I can see with my eyes’. Besides that, there are many students and teachers who have successfully applied the teachings for many years. For them, these teachings are not anymore some lessons in a course, but a way a life and a path which leads HOME. We are looking forward for you to share with us your results.
Does it matter if I am religious/atheist/unsure?
No, we welcome people of all beliefs. Moreover, you might even find valuable insights that will help you go deeper into your current spiritual orientation. Remember that this Esoteric school is also a creative and practical synthesis of universal spirituality, putting in value many of the treasures of wisdom of humanity. Therefore, it doesn’t matter if you are unsure of how to relate to certain spiritual concepts.
How fast will I see results?
Everyone has their own rhythm of transformation that cannot be forced, rhythm which is also connected to the life conditions. However, by having a persistent practice, ideally every day, with an enthusiastic and optimistic attitude and with attentiveness, the results will appear much faster than if you practice only during the class or without the adequate inner attitude.
Do I get any personal support?
After each class, the teacher is available to answer your questions and offer specific advices and guidance regarding your practice. The course notes that you receive are also there to offer you valuable guidelines on the path. You will be part of a class with like-hearted people like you, not to mention the global community that is formed by all students and teachers of the Atman Academy. Such a community is a strong support for both new and old students.
Is this course suitable for beginners?
Yes. Even though the Integral Esoteric Yoga Course is one of the most complex you will ever find, it takes you right from the beginning, allowing you to gradually dive into it. Just bring your heart and the rest will follow.
