Hi, I’m Andrew Tanner
For over 20 years, I’ve been a yoga teacher and healer in the tradition of Korean Taoist Yoga. My mission is help people across the world gain inner peace through the transformative power of yoga, healing, and taoist philosophy.
I believe that each of us needs to pause and examine our lives and ask ourselves if the way we are living is bringing us where we want to go… We currently live in the “attention economy,” so if you aren’t clear on your own intentions, then your attention is scattered and you are probably living according to someone else’s intention… phew that was a mouthful. The point is I offer practices, coaching, and experiences that help you gain clarity and strength to know who you are in this world.
As Yuval Harari said, “In a world of infinite information, clarity is power.”
In Taoism the goal is to cultivate your own inner power which brings health, clarity, and insight.
-Andrew
The way of the Tao is returning…
Returning to the source is serenity. Know the source and you will know peace.
More about Andrew
Andrew Tanner is a global yoga teacher, men’s mind/body coach, and public speaker known for his soulful style of teaching, and unshaken faith in people’s ability to transform for the better. He has been offering holistic healing work and guiding people on spiritual retreat for over 20 years. Those who work with Andrew typically find they are finally making major positive changes that previously felt impossible to pursue. Andrew’s specific teaching style is rooted in his studies of Sahm-Je Taoist Yoga & Qi Gong, as well as Hatha-Raja Yoga in the lineage of Sri Dharma Mittra. Combining these two schools from the east gives Andrew’s classes a unique, non-dogmatic, energetic quality that brings people into states of inner peace.
In his early 20’s Andrew studied and lived for 4.5 years with the Dahn-Hak master Dahn-Woon “Energy Cloud,” in NYC where he received direct mentorship in meditation, taoist yoga, energy training, and healing. During those years he had a chance to travel to Korea and spend two weeks studying with various masters culminating in a peak experience training into the night at one of the temples on the top of Mount Mo-ak and waking up above the clouds. Today he continues his Taoist studies in the Sundo lineage under Grandmaster Hyunmoon Kim. Additional influences include 4 years of Hatha-Raja yoga study with Sri Dharma Mittra in New York, and 15+ years involvement with the global yoga industry. From 2011-2013 Andrew ran the prestigious Kripalu Schools of Yoga and Ayurveda, and from 2014-2019 Andrew was honored to serve as the Chief Yoga Ambassador for Yoga Alliance, the largest standards setting body for Yoga in the US.
In 2021 Andrew moved back to his home state of Massachusetts where he lives with his wife and two children among the natural beauty of the Berkshires. He currently does private health coaching for men over 40 and passes on the Sahm-Je Taoist practices through his Virtual Yoga School.
