Megan Beck Kaula Tantra Yoga

Megan completed her YTT 200 hr in Vinyasa (2017, Michigan) and YTT 500 hr in Kaula Tantra Yoga (2019, Quito, Ecuador) at Durga’s Tiger School for Yoga, Arts, and Shamanism. She has since continued to collaborate with Durga’s Tiger School by returning every few years to participate and teach at the school. In 2020, she dedicated herself to supporting the development of the off-grid community, Durga’s Tiger Land (outside Esmeraldas, Ecuador). This land project provides a space for yoga graduates of the school to visit, offer healing retreats, and develop the community into their home. Megan’s journey weaved her worldwide, which is now concentrated between North, Central, and South America, where she continues her work and study as an eco-builder, yogini (always learning), and professional photographer.


Her journey into discovery through the tantra practice has provided deep insight into the nature of unifying and balancing duality. Shiva and Shakti, Eagle and Condor, Mind and Body, Left and Right, Duality and Non-Duality. These concepts are a guiding light along her path.

Lacy Archer,
Therapeutic Yoga for Today’s World, Embodied Integration Therapy

Hi, I’m Lacy Archer. I offer Mind-Body Based Grief and Transition Recovery and Mind-Body Wellness for Neurological Mobility and am the founder of Mountain Heart Collective.

I walk alongside people who are carrying a lot—grief, stress, transition, or simply the weight of living in today’s world—and I support them in finding steadiness and care within their own bodies.

My approach is gentle and collaborative, honoring each person’s lived experience, personal pace, and unique path. I work with individuals, groups, and often alongside integrative and healthcare providers, to support mental, emotional, and physical well-being. I specialize in integrative Mind-Body work and in listening closely—to the body, to movement, and to what wants to emerge—allowing the healing process to unfold with respect, presence, and integrity.

“I believe Yoga helps the human spirit to live our lives with a gentler and kinder outlook towards ourselves and others.
