Alex Rose’s practice is organized around three pillars: guided self-growth programs, traditional tea rituals, and educational offerings such as lectures, workshops, and retreats. Each pillar supports individual and collective transformation through intentional, accessible formats.
These are structured, individually tailored pathways designed to guide clients or families through significant life transitions; such as grief, coming of age, or changes in relationships; using a clear, step-by-step process. Each program is thoughtfully crafted to reflect the unique needs of the individual or group, and may vary in length and format. However, all programs follow a shared arc: a defined beginning, a meaningful middle, and a culminating, co-created rites of passage ceremony that honors the transformation.
While life transitions are often enriched by being acknowledged and honored through ceremony, a formal rites of passage is not required to find deeper connection and understanding in your life. When working with Alex, a personalized program is developed to reflect your unique needs, desires, and preferences. This process is flexible and responsive, and Alex is glad to offer his support through an open-ended, ongoing relationship, meeting you where you are and walking with you over time.
Tea ceremony is a central ritual tool in Alex’s practice, used to cultivate stillness, presence, and deeper connection. Integrated into rites of passage programs, it serves as both a grounding practice and an educational experience, offering insight into the form, function, and transformative power of ritual. Alex also offers tea ceremonies as standalone experiences, available one-on-one or in intimate group settings.

You can book an initial consultation to explore where you are in your journey. Together, we’ll determine the best fit—whether that’s a structured program, ongoing sessions, or a one-time ritual.
Most sessions and rituals are held in a dedicated space designed for calm and focus. Depending on the nature of the work, some experiences may be offered virtually or hosted at your location or retreat.

Each rite of passage is unique, shaped by the needs and desires of those involved. Common elements may include: Challenge or Journey – a test, solo experience, or symbolic task. Guidance – support or wisdom from elders or peers. Symbolic Action – such as lighting a candle, ritual washing, or crossing a threshold. Token or Gift – representing change or a new role. Spoken Words – vows, blessings, affirmations, or farewells. Communal Witnessing – gathering of loved ones or community. Release – letting go through burning, burying, or offering. Celebration – a shared meal, music, or dance. Your ceremony will be a co-created experience, built around what is most meaningful to you.
