A JOURNEY OF STUDY, PRACTICE, AND INITIATION

The Anuttara Path

Anuttara offers a path for practitioners who want to go the full distance within the tradition. It has four parts: the 200hr Tantra Yoga & Meditation Teacher Training, the Kuṇḍalinī Training, Kaula Tantra dīkṣā, and one-on-one mentorship with Artemis or Bhairav. Each stands on its own, and you are welcome to take any of them for the sake of your own practice.

200hr Tantra Yoga & Meditation Teacher Training

Taught by Artemis & Bhairav · Live and on-demand
Waitlist open · Registration December 2026 · Cohort begins January 2027
Study Tantra inside the lineage that carries it.
This training moves through the whole of the Tantric path: āsana, prāṇāyāma, mantra, kīrtana, cakra study, philosophy, and meditation, taught within a living lineage by two teachers empowered in it. Come to teach, or come to deepen your own practice; the curriculum serves both. The on-demand curriculum contains everything you need to complete the training and graduate, and it is yours for life, so you move at the pace your life allows. Each year Artemis and Bhairav host live calls for all students. They are complimentary and optional, graduation does not depend on them, and many students return to them year after year.

Kuṇḍalinī Training

Kuṇḍalinī Yoga & Cakra Teacher Training · Taught by Bhairav · Waitlist open · Summer 2027
Study the cakras as a living reality, and learn to perceive them in others.

​​​Drawing on the Ṣaṭcakranirūpaṇa and the wider Tantric tradition, Bhairav teaches each cakra in turn, with its philosophy and a dedicated sādhanā at every stage. Āsana, meditation, and prāṇāyāma serve the unfolding, and through direct energetic transmission you develop the capacity to perceive and balance the cakras of others. This is the most comprehensive kuṇḍalinī training we offer. It is built for practitioners with an established personal practice who intend to work as kuṇḍalinī teachers and energetic healers.

This course is an amazing experience, very well thought and heartfelt lectures that lead you to both question and build your own knowledge from a strong foundation of theory and philosophy. I really enjoy the open hearted approach to education that guides and supports rather than enforces adherence to dogma. Thank you to Artemis & Bhairav and all of our wonderful facilitators who commit their time, love, and light to guide us through this journey. 💗

The gratitude I have for this course is unbelievable. I have been able to learn more about my energy system than I expected and to have the experience behind it, through the 1 hour of practice a day was a very deep way to the practice, without it, it definitely wouldn't have been knowledge that feels ebbed into my being. Not only myself better, my mind has been opened and some of the tight conditioning about what is possible in the "world has been shattered. Bhairav, you are an excellent teacher and I respect you very much. Artemis too.

Meet your Teachers

Artemis Emily Doyle & Bhairav Thomas English

Untitled design (12).png

Artemis Emily Doyle and Bhairav are teachers of Tantra, Yoga, and nonduality, whose shared work brings together the depth of traditional practice, the wisdom of Kashmir Śaivism, and the lived experience of embodied spiritual inquiry. Together, they are co-founders of Anuttara Ashram, co-creators of the Anuttara Turyatīta School and Anuttara Teacher Trainings, and dedicated guides to those exploring the contemplative traditions of Yoga and Tantra.

​

Artemis is a teacher of Tantra and nonduality, published author, speaker, and founder of Samāveśa and the Turyatīta School. Her work weaves together Kashmir Śaivism, tantric somatics, nondual contemplative practice, and the psychology of human experience. After years of teaching yoga and meditation and a decade living and practicing at an ashram in northern British Columbia, she completed an extensive initiatory sādhana in 2025, empowering her as a guru and lineage holder within the Śivoham tradition. Her approach is shaped by years of traditional practice, somatic inquiry, and deep engagement with the nature of awareness.

​

Bhairav is the founder of Anuttara Ashram, co-creator of the Anuttara Turyatīta School, and a lead facilitator in the Anuttara Teacher Trainings. With more than two decades immersed in the study and practice of Yoga and Tantra, his path has taken him through years of learning from masters and yogis throughout the East. After beginning his journey in India in 1998, he met Guruji Maharaj of the right-handed Śivoham Tantra tradition in 2009. Following six years of initiation, he was empowered in 2018 as a guru and lineage holder within the Śivoham lineage. He is also co-author of The Power of Tantra Meditation and co-host of the Tantra & Yoga Podcast, and is authorized to initiate students into mantra meditation.

​

Together, Artemis and Bhairav bring complementary perspectives to their teaching: Artemis's integration of tantric philosophy, somatic awareness, and the psychology of the unconscious, alongside Bhairav's decades of dedicated practice and direct experience within the Śivoham lineage. Their shared approach honors the depth of traditional teachings while inviting students to explore these practices through their own embodied experience, sincere inquiry, and relationship with awareness.

​

Through their courses, teacher trainings, and community offerings, they support students in developing a deeper understanding of Yoga and Tantra—not simply as systems of knowledge, but as living practices that can inform how we meet ourselves, one another, and the fullness of human experience.

Our Intention

At Anuttara, our intention is to infuse everything we offer with the resonance of the heart. Each offering is crafted to echo the essence of heartfelt authenticity, serving as an invitation for others to reconnect with their own hearts. In everything we provide, our hope is to guide individuals back to the fundamental truth of their being, even if just for a fleeting moment.

 

Our core offerings span tantra yoga teacher training, kuṇḍalinī teacher training, and initiatory Kāula Tantra study — each rooted in lineage transmission and the philosophy of Kashmir Śaivism.

 

We aspire to create experiences that act as gentle nudges, prompting introspection and a return to the core of one's authentic self.

​

We're dedicated to creating inclusive spaces that welcome everyone. Tantra, has historically been a path for the outliers, and has been a space for those excluded from many other spiritual traditions to practice. We're committed to continuing this legacy by fostering environments that honor and include marginalized individuals. We believe Tantra should be accessible and applicable to all, regardless of age, sex, gender, color, or size.
