It would be from myproject.controllers import foo But you shouldn't do that, instead do it the other way round - place foo in some utility-module, and import that from the controller-module. The reason is that importing from controllers might not work until TG is fully bootstrapped, and depending on the order of imports that's not guaranteeable. So as a rule of thumb: *never* import from a controller module.
