Tanya has a passion for helping people transform their lives for the better and is a Four Desires Certified Teacher.

As a long-time wellness educator, Tanya uses this experience to help deepen students’ knowledge of the traditional practices of healing and wholeness. Annually, she offers intensives and retreats to Thailand, India, Costa Rica, and other areas in the world with rich healing traditions to go deeper and study with masters. With travel as a passion, you will often find her chanting with Buddhist monks, cooking a curry with her son, or discovering a long lost healing technique when abroad.
What’s Covered in this Episode
In this conversation, Tanya and I talk about…
- How she stumbled into yoga as a way to heal.
- How she transitioned from the West Coast dot-com world of the 1990’s to being laid off, and now running a thriving school.
- the moment she knew she would teach yoga for the rest of her life, and how everything we experience brings us to “this point”.
- Doing what you love, staying fascinated and deepening your knowledge.
- Being willing to be helped, and mentoring others so they can be skillful.
Tanya also shares why it’s so important to her to be in selfless service — being full enough inside so that she can give to others without any loss. Joyfully showing up and offering compassion, or kindness, or assistance, and the joys of seeing a person’s burdens lifted. And we touch on intuition and getting closer to the soul.
Tanya weaves a lot of travel into her life and though she lives in Minnesota, we chatted while she was abroad in London, which was pretty fun. Enjoy!
