Tibetan Yoga and the 5 Elements
Exploring the Doorway of the Body, Going Deeper with Tsa Lung
September 15, 2026 – November 10, 2026

4 Live Zoom Classes, with access to our online course platform for additional video and audio recordings and class discussion board

A new and special opportunity for practitioners who are already familiar with the Tsa Lung meditation practice.
In this new advanced course, developed and taught by 3 Doors Senior Teacher Alejandro Chaoul, you are invited into a profound experience of embodiment. Through the Tsa Lung practice, you will learn to sense and inhabit each energy center, allowing the qualities of the five elements (earth, water, fire, wind, space) to come alive as felt, lived experience. By connecting with the elements—part of your very makeup—you will deepen your sense of connection to the world around you. As the doorway of the body opens to the space of Inner Refuge, greater awareness and resourcefulness naturally become available, both in your meditation practice and in your life.
