"You can never have an impact on society if you have not changed yourself"
My Story~Alice Banting
I am a dedicated Yoga and Tantric Sadhaka with a daily practice that is close to my heart. After 15 years in nursing and 10 years teaching yoga, I bring 25 years of experience working with the body. While I deeply respect Western medicine for its life-saving capabilities, I am passionate about exploring the preventative power of health and healing through spiritual sciences.
Yoga has been a transformative journey for me. It not only alleviated my back pain but also helped me calm my busy Londoner mind. My personal experiences and body awareness deeply inform my teaching. In 2012, I completed my first 200-hour teacher training, a pivotal moment that opened a new world for me.
By 2014, after training at the KYM in Chennai, I found myself living and teaching yoga in Guwahati, Assam, India. This city is home to the sacred Kamakhya Temple, a revered center of Tantric practices and one of the four primary shakti peethas. Living near this sacred site and regularly visiting the temple deepened my interest in Tantra and the rise of the Divine Feminine.
My practice continued to evolve as I delved into the mythical teachings of Sianna Sherman, who reignited my childhood fascination with nature, magic, and astrology. Through her Urban Priestess program, I learned to honor natural cycles and feminine power. Completing my 300-hour Rasa yoga teacher training with Sianna in Bali in 2019 was a transformative experience. Rasa yoga focuses on the alchemy of yoga:mantra, mudra, asana, pranayama, meditation, functional anatomy & Tantric yoga philosophy.
Now, I live a peaceful beach life in South Goa with my beloved dogs, sharing the healing benefits of yoga in this tropical paradise. I invite you to join me in exploring empowering yoga practices, transformative stories, mythical wisdom and ways to use the tool box of the spiritual sciences in modern day life.

Tantra the alchemical path of transformation. From poison into nectar from the curse to the verse. Everything can be transmuted just as the caterpillar to the butterfly.

At the heart of Tantra is the embrace of paradox.
Human life is a great weaving of matter and spirit, immanence and transcendence, dark and light, worldly fulfillment and spiritual liberation. Shakti is the downward-pointing triangle and the manifesting forms of creative energy.
Shiva is the upward-pointing triangle and the liberating current of transcendence. In all humans—inclusive of the full spectrum of gender identification —there is the intermingling of the currents of feminine and masculine pulsing energies.
