When you first meet Stephen, you know that you are meeting a man who walks the walk.  Disciplined practice, a genuine heart and commitment to Truth have produced in Stephen the qualities of a warrior:  integrity, strength, leadership, kindness and Knowledge.

Stephen has experienced tremendous success in life.  He has remarkable accomplishments as a teacher, an investment banker, a social worker, a builder and an author.  Throughout his life, as Stephen reached the pinnacle of achievement in one area, he would expand to another driven by the desire to do better for his family and for his world.

Perhaps Stephen’s greatest achievement is his courage in the midst of adversity.  Along with his exceptional success, Stephen has faced tremendous loss, pain and difficulty in his life.  What makes Stephen as a man more profound than his many accomplishments is his choice to remain open, loving and steadfast in the midst of hardship.

Although his accomplishments are notable, what truly makes the mark of this man is his lifetime of service.  Stephen exudes what is possible when you live your life in alignment with your own deepest purpose.  He lives from the Truth he has discovered within.  He makes it possible for others to do the same.

A little known story reveals a glimpse into the beginnings of WarriorSage and the exceptional friendship between Stephen and Satyen.  Many years ago at an Intensive (just like the ones he leads today) Stephen and Satyen were participants going for the Truth.  When it came time for Stephen and Satyen to work together, by Divine grace, sitting across from one another they both simultaneously had a direct experience of “What Another Is.”

Although this Enlightenment experience was beyond description or any words of explanation, the results of this happening have had tremendous impact on thousands of lives.  The two men walked away from that day as brothers, brothers with a joint purpose.  They were unified in their dedication to bring all of the training and tools needed for others to live and lead Awakened lives.

Today Stephen travels the world leading workshops such as Sex, Passion and Enlightenment, the Illumination Intensive and making it possible for thousands to step onto the Path of the WarriorSage.  Stephen’s personal spiritual practice, his published writing and his empowered teaching are all infused with Truth and with passion.  Stephen is a natural leader of men.  He is known for his exceptional commitment to each and every student that crosses his path.

Personally, Stephen’s greatest love is his precious wife, Sonora.  They met in the work they now bring to others.  Sonora is an accomplished teacher in her own right.  Together this couple is formidable because they never give up.  As long as there is a single soul wanting a better life, wanting a better relationship, wanting  to know the Truth…Stephen and Sonora will be out in the world helping others step onto their own Conscious Path, the Path of the WarriorSage.

Sonora is the grace and reliability at the heart of WarriorSage.  Sonora represents dignity and decency.  When she says something, you can instinctively intuit that it is so. 

As a Vice President of the company she loves, you are just as likely to find Sonora at the front of the room teaching as you are to find her late at night, the last one to bed, taking care of the tiniest of details.  She solves every challenge with tenacity and with honesty.  Sonora would do whatever it takes to make it possible for someone to discover a better way to live and a deeper way to love.

Sonora’s particular mastery lies in her ability to produce successful results in business without losing sight of the heart.  As a teacher this translates into her ability to deliver a practical message which, when practiced, results in magical transformation.  Sonora is the first to respond and quick to forgive.

Like so many of the women she helps, Sonora has a deep Feminine heart.  Like many women today, she has achieved much success in business and in life.  Sonora is as comfortable driving a forklift as she is running a large crew of landscapers or managing a multimillion dollar company.  What sets Sonora apart is her tenacity in love.  Every task she performs is her genuine offering of the heart.  She consistently returns to her Feminine essence to bring wisdom to every situation. 

Sonora quietly sees the Good in all. 

Because she has made the choice to face the darkest and most painful parts of her own soul, Sonora offers a gentle, authentic strength when she walks with you through yours.  

When Sonora first came to WarriorSage as a consultant her entire job description was:  See what needs to be done, and do it!  By embodying the practices of the Path of the WarriorSage, in her own unique way, she did this with such excellence that she was not only promoted quickly, but she also attracted her life’s love, her husband, Stephen. 

Stephen and Sonora offer the teachings of Sex, Passion and Enlightenment as a proven way for anyone to improve the relationships in their life.  They do it for one main reason.  They know that these teachings really work. 

Once, a woman was crying from the wounds in her heart.  Sonora walked up to the woman and whispered in her ear:  “It is possible for you to be happy.  It is what you really want.  It is your most natural state.  Just start with taking a breath.  Let go a little bit.”  The woman relaxed because she could hear the Truth in Sonora’s words.  What mattered most was where Sonora was coming from.  Sonora has an easy way of making the profound seem very simple, real and possible. 

Sonora is the first to explain that she has the life she has now because she stepped onto the Path of the WarriorSage, her own most Truthful Path of transformation and of Love.

Anjali is a rare teacher.  To look at her vast accomplishments is only to glimpse a small aspect of who Anjali is.  Above all, Anjali is a kind, deep, powerful woman who has dedicated her life to her own growth and to making it possible for others to know Truth and to know harmony in relationship.

Anjali has taken, staffed and mastered over 150 Illumination Intensives.  This is an astounding accomplishment.  The intent of attending a single Intensive is to experience direct union with the Truth of Who you are.  This experience, called by many names in every living culture, is Enlightenment.  Although it is beyond words of explanation or description, Enlightenment is real.  The benefits alone of going for this level of Truth are profound.  It is usual to experience mind clearing, the relaxation of harmful and limiting patterns, epiphanies and more.

Anjali took her first Illumination Intensive in 1976, and she gave her first one in 1982.  She was prestigiously certified as an Enlightenment Master in 1992 by the Dyad School of Enlightenment in Australia.  These events impacted Anjali’s life of service.  The many benefits she herself experienced through Intensives inspired Anjali to train others and to make it possible for thousands to attend. 

Born and raised in Ontario, Anjali was certified as a yoga instructor early in her career.  She trained for two years with the Yoga Centre Toronto before being officially certified an instructor in 1977.  Yoga literally means union.  It is from depth and with clarity that Anjali teaches true yoga which impacts many levels of each student’s life and being.

One of Anjali’s most shining areas of long term achievement is in her full-time counseling practice which has thrived since 1987.  Anjali has studied Clearing since 1985, and she was certified as an independent practitioner of Clearing by the European Clearing Association in Geneva in 1997.  Anjali’s practice has helped people from almost every walk of life.  She is especially renowned for her work in counseling couples.

It is not merely her years of experience or even her impressive credentials that make Anjali an exceptional counselor and teacher.  Anjali is conscious and caring.  She uses her awareness like a knife to expertly slice to the reality and heart of every situation.  Her answers are honest and simple.  She shoots absolutely straight with humour, compassion and depth.

Today Anjali is the seminar leader for the Living from Truth Integration Program with WarriorSage.  Anjali has crafted and taught these workshops since 2003.  The Living from Truth seminars help participants of the Illumination Intensive and anyone who wants to live with greater Truth in their life.  The work she offers helps to ground the Awakening and the lessons that are gained when you intentionally seek to know the Truth.

Meeting Anjali is a privilege.  She has the easy elegance of genuine royalty.  She has the humour of a wry jester.  She embodies the kind of knowledge that comes from dedicated practice and unwavering self honesty.  Be ready when you meet her because simply being in her presence will cause an inner stirring within your own soul.

In a time when so much is possible and change is constant, it takes an exceptional man to stand up and lead with the soul intent of making his world better.  If you asked anyone who knows him, they would confirm that Gary is such a man.  Gary is a leader training others to be leaders in their own lives.  If you were to encounter Gary, you would be met with strength, understanding, depth and humour.

Gary’s passion for learning, growing and teaching is fueled by 20 years as a chiropractor, 25 years in martial arts and more than 22 years leading personal growth seminars.  Complimenting his extensive experience is Gary’s great capacity to enjoy life.  When you work with Gary you will dramatically expand your own faculty to succeed in business, life and relationship – and have more fun doing it than you might have thought possible!

Gary is committed to the re-emergence of the brotherhood of men.  For more than four years Gary has lead a powerhouse men’s group in the heart of Seattle.  This project has produced amazing results.  Gary and the men continue to excel in their businesses, in their relationships and in their unique life-missions, attesting to Gary’s demonstration of what is possible when good men gather to challenge and to support each other.  Gary is fierce and fervent about men living true to their deepest purpose and offering their gifts to the world.

The work of WarriorSage and his apprenticeship with Satyen Raja has infused Gary’s life with a richness, an intensity and a practicality that has given his teaching an edge.  Gary’s sole consideration when he is in front of others as a teacher is what would best serve them in their lives and in their Awakening?
 
Gary’s presence and his dedication are beautifully matched by the genuine radiance and devotion of his partner, Deborah.   As a result of this couple’s disciplined practice, Gary and Deborah are now a part of the team leading WarriorSage’s highly successful and popular Sex, Passion & Enlightenment Intensives. 

Gary and Deborah’s remarkable ability to connect heart-to-heart with participants from all walks of life translates to real change for those they touch.  Gary and Deborah transmit the teachings.   Your experience with them will be memorable, and it will instill lasting benefits.

Gary’s unwavering commitment to practical spiritual evolution in work, play, relationship and community is the gift he brings to everyone he meets.  Gary and Deborah are powerful guides for people who want to experience the incredible magic that is possible.  Magic that is the fruition of intent and practice.

Gary is a modern-day pillar of the community.  He is the man you would go to when things get tough.  He is a man you can depend on.  Intense and passionate, Gary has an amazing ability to inspire others to go beyond their perceived limitations.

When you meet Deborah it is her inner beauty and strength that immediately draws you in.  Her relaxed competency is calming.  Deborah has the ease that comes to someone who does not harshly judge others.  Her kindness is real.  Her care for others is felt in whatever she does.

The better part of Deborah’s life has been devoted to the art of communication.  After earning her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Communication, she went on to enjoy success as a college instructor of communication and later as a professional in the field of alternative dispute resolution.   Deborah has helped hundreds of people learn to communicate more effectively in their personal and professional lives.

Finding Deborah leading trainings that offer people a better life, more intimate relationships and a deeper Path seems only natural.  Those that know her best see that, moved by a profound love for others, Deborah has spent her life giving in any way she can.  She has been a part of transformational growth work for more than 20 years.

Yoga and sacred movement are the pillars of Deborah’s devotional practice and the fertilizer for her spiritual evolution.  As she says, “Becoming embodied – spiritually embodied – has been revolutionary for me.  Now, offering that possibility to others has become part of how love wants to move through me.”  Deborah’s life, down to her relationship and her career, has become a gift of surrendered service. 

Nowhere can Deborah’s offering be seen more than in her bond with her partner, Gary.  They are deeply committed to serving each other in their relationship and to serving others through their relationship.  They have been the leaders in inspiring, building and supporting a community of thousands of people who practice and play together in order to have more Conscious, Free and fun lives.  Hundreds of couples have directly benefited from their teaching, counseling and example.  Their realness and down to earth style allows for depth and laughter.

Deborah and Gary met Satyen and Suzanne in 2002, and they never looked back.  Through unparalleled demonstration and disciplined practice Deborah and Gary moved through an intense apprenticeship to become lead trainers for WarriorSage. 

Deborah and Gary are now an integral part of the team leading the highly effective and well-loved Sex, Passion and Enlightenment Intensives.  If you are fortunate enough to be a participant in one of their workshops, you will be profoundly impacted by their dedication and altered forever by the power of their transmission. 

Deborah has a particular gift at being able to gently guide women into states of such openness, honesty and intimacy that extraordinary healing and growth can and does occur.  She leads with empathy and strength, inspiring women and men back into the essence of who they really are.  Deborah’s style is so comfortable and genuine that it is easy to let go of burdens and masks and relax into the core of your truest self.

Deborah’s greatest desire is the magnification of love.  Her passionate, playful spirit and her commitment to celebration infuse everything she does.  One of Deborah’s brightest gifts is the disarming way she lovingly invites you to open and to offer your heart beyond what you thought possible.

Ultimately Shaeah’s extraordinary talent and dedication in the Illumination Intensive lead her to be the first staff member to achieve the hard earned status of Master Guide.  This incredible accomplishment was achieved through a long and dedicated apprenticeship under Satyen, Lawrence, Anjali, Colleen and Stephen – the leading team of Illumination Intensive Master Guides in the world.

Shaeah’s innate qualities as a compassionate leader and rare vissionary are expressed best when she is leading an Illumination Intensive.  Highly trained in Mind Clearing, Shaeah uses her gifts and training to enable thousands of people to discover their own deepest Truth.  The level of kindness and empathy Shaeah demonstrates assisting those on the intentional Path of Awakening is exceptional.

Kristi is living proof of what can come from devoted, Heart open, spiritual practice.  Kristi is the lifeblood of WarriorSage and a Blessing to everyone she meets.  She is absolutely dependable because she turns every obstacle into a doorway of possibility.  Kristi is slow to judge or blame others, which grants her the clarity to easily determine the most elegant Path.

Kristi grasps the magic of Discipline.  She uses Discipline to turn the Truth she learns along with the Truth in her heart into a better life for herself and for everyone in her world.  Kristi’s mastery is understanding that everything – every person, every task and every thought – deserves loving attention.  This is how Kristi became a Money Master and trainer extraordinaire!

All her life Kristi has inwardly been asking the big questions.  Why are we all here?  What is the purpose of life? She has always sought how she could serve the divine and others.

Over five years ago her hungry curiosity to know the Truth about what matters most landed Kristi in the early stages of WarriorSage.  She started as full time team member back when the company was just a passionate dream offering small gatherings with a few people working from a single room.  Kristi is a foundational reason why WarriorSage has grown into a multi million dollar company serving thousands throughout the world.

As a senior consultant, you will now find Kristi’s dependable, honourable and loving influence in most every aspect of WarriorSage.  Kristi heads Marketing and Communications for the company and so much more.  And as a long time room chief and trainer, you can still find Kristi capably running all aspects behind the scenes at select WarriorSage live events.

Kristi’s fervent passion for art, culture and glimpsing the many spiritual traditions of our world has inspired her to travel to more than 30 countries.  She loves to try new things, eat new foods, hear new languages…Wherever she has been she has again and again discovered that beneath all things there is the single Heart that joins us all as One.

There are no words to express how sincere Kristi is in her deep devotion.  She is happiest when she most feels her connection to the divine.  She looks for this connection in every face she meets.  She looks for this connection in every task she does.

Satyen once said, “Kristi is a one woman army… once she commits to doing something, she will do anything and everything to make it happen.  There is absolutly no question that it will be done.”  That is how Kristi shows her devotion the best.  She does whatever it takes to turn your dream into tangible reality.  Kristi accomplishes all of this and more with quiet Discipline, integrity, Truth, play and Love.

If you sit quietly beside her, watch her perform her duties or see her dancing you can almost hear the ecstatic prose of Rumi, Hafiz, Lalla and Mira — the Awakened poets she so dearly loves.  Kristi is like a deep well with enough endless refreshing water for all who would drink.
