Spirituality, Sexuality and Shamanism North

Whether you are new or experienced tantrika join us for a stand-alone online experience of the building blocks of Tantra. You will be guided in a gentle and safe way by two experienced Tantra teachers.

The evening is designed to be fun, sensuous, full of learning and surprises.

"I would highly recommend this introduction to Tantra. It is fun, relaxed and allowed me to experience something of the gifts Tantra has to offer in a safe and comfortable environment." Sarah M, Participant

Through a series of gentle exercises, the aspects we will experience are:

• You are not a static thing but a flow of energy. You are not any of the forms you embody, but are the energy that transforms from one form to another as you choose, in consciousness and in freedom.

• Your mind is not limited to thinking, planning, and worrying, but can create awareness, noticing what is in the moment, both within you and around you. The mind creates a virtual reality, while awareness brings you into contact with what is.

• The key to finding union in your being and not allowing your thoughts to dominate your experiences.

• How breath, movement and sound can alter how you feel and how you can use this to change your state any time.

• Your flow of energy creates the connection between your sex, your heart and your spirit, and so can lead to an experience of your totality. Through the connectedness and wholeness, within and without, a sense of the sacredness of life, in ourselves and in the other, becomes manifest.

Tantra is a map that shows us how to tap into the life energy within us, through sex, heart and spirit, that has the power to transform our lives, bringing a new quality of aliveness and awareness into every area of our experience. Tantra is a non-prescriptive path, where everyone can go at their own speed, following their hearts. It is an incredible journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance and ultimately self-love.

"Guided to discover and realise your full potential. Moving you from a dull, pedestrian existence to enjoying all life has to offer. Shifting your default position to an open heart; tantrikas are so much happier." Peter, Participant

The zoom room opens at 6:15pm and the event starts at 6:30pm.

“We see tantra massage, practiced ethically, consciously and in true consent as a pathway into tantra, a life led in presence, awareness and connection with ourselves, others and beyond.” – Elara and Jon

The words “tantra massage” have been often misappropriated to sell sexual services. In addition, even the best-intentioned tantric massages often over- emphasize the sexual aspect of tantra, an ancient practice that opens the door to an experience of ourselves as beings of energy and consciousness.

These five days invite you to explore the basic principles of tantra and how they form the foundation to authentic tantra massage. This block can be done stand-alone and is also the first block of The Paths of Transformation, Transformational Tantra Massage Training which can take one on one’s own transformational journey and ultimately to a professional qualification to support other people’s journey.

During the five days, you will be invited to learn:

• The basic principles of Tantra
• Tantric Rituals and their importance particularly in a massage setting
• To improve communication skills around consent and boundaries
• How to connect with energy in different ways and how your energy can affect others
• Where energy may be held in the body and how to release it
• Specific massages that release tension
• Finding more aliveness in oneself and how to support others to do so
• Basic hygiene protocols

This training is experiential and is based on your personal experience, both in receiving and supporting others to have their own personal experience. In doing this you will have the opportunity to explore some of your personal story through embodiment. This event is not suitable for healing deep personal trauma.

At the end of the training, you will have been given the opportunity to take away:

• An experience of what tantra is
• Tools for communicating consent and boundaries
• Massages that support people to find their energetic flow and zest for life
• Rituals you can practice
• Insights into your own personal patterns of response
• Methods for finding relaxation in both routine and more difficult situation
• More awareness of your body
• Getting the right support for the work you do

* Tantra is an ancient wisdom and integral in its wisdom is that it’s non prescriptive and allows everyone to find their own truth.

This workshop is open to all who are over 18 and wish to explore, one or all of the following: Personal self-development, want to learn massages for friends and partners and active and aspiring practitioners.
