Charles Muir is considered the Pioneer of the Modern Tantra Movement in the United States. In 1980, he originated the Tantra: The Art of Conscious Loving format, Sacred Spot Massage, and many other experiential exercises, which have become cornerstones in the curriculum of most Tantra educators. In addition to Red Tantra practices, Charles teaches a powerful method of White Tantra, or Laya Yoga, which is a breath-coordinated form of Hatha Yoga, with extended holds, meditation, and chakra focus. Its gentle-on-the-body approach is relaxing and revitalizing, and awakens consciousness quickly.
Charles has authored two Tantra books, two Tantra Training DVDs, three White Tantra CDs, and five Red Tantra CDs. His work has been featured in over fifty media articles, television appearances, and two Hollywood feature movies, Bliss and The Best Ever.

Caroline began teaching with Charles in 1984. She has served as Vice President of Source School of Tantra Yoga and is currently Senior Female Staff Educator at Source School of Tantra Yoga. Married to Charles from 1987 to 2002, she continues to teach with him happily-even-after their divorce. Their thirty years of friendship continues to be the foundation of their relationship. This loving friendship is also an inspiration to others who change the form of their relationships, choose to keep the love, and let go of what no longer serves them.
In 2004, Caroline founded the Divine Feminine Institute, an educational organization, which brings nurturing, awakening, and healing modalities to women. She is currently devoting this phase of her life to educating people as to the content and extent of the feminine. She lives in California with her sweetheart and partner, Will Bach. Caroline Muir continues a limited schedule of co-facilitating the popular Tantra: The Art of Conscious Loving seminars with Charles Muir, and working with the Divine Feminine Institute, as she writes a novel of her Tantra memoirs.
