**Jeden Mittwoch von 18:30 – 20:30 Uhr auf Deutsch.** Probemonat für 15,00 €. **Kursbeschreibung Traditioneller Tantra Yoga Kurs** Tantra Yoga ist weit mehr als Erotik mit Räucherstäbchen, wie es heutzutage in der westlichen Welt oft fälschlicherweise präsentiert wird. Tantra Yoga ist die Wissenschaft des Universums, die Wissenschaft des Lebens. Es bietet uns ein tiefes Verständnis der Funktionsweisen des Universums und seiner Prinzipien. Wer die Tantra Yoga Lehre für sich umsetzt, fängt an zu begreifen warum die Dinge so sind wie sie sind – und wie man genau das für die eigene spirituelle Entwicklung nutzen kann. Für einen Tantriker ist alles eins, ein großes kosmisches Ganzes, in das sich alle Wesen und alle Phänomene eingliedern. Und wenn alles aus einem großen Ganzen, einem einzigen heiligen, schöpferischen Bewusstsein hervorgeht, gibt es nichts das nicht heilig wäre. Wer Tantra Yoga lebt, begreift das Leben als einen Schöpfungsprozess, als ein göttliches Spiel, dessen Ziel es ist zurück zu kehren in die Glückseligkeit der Einheit mit allem. Auf diese Weise werden der Weg zur Arbeit, der neue Geschäftsabschluss, das Liebesspiel und sogar emotionale Regungen wie Unzufriedenheit u. ä. zum Antrieb ständigen Wachstums und zum Grund glückseliger Fröhlichkeit. Tantra Yoga nennt das Leben eine Achterbahn, und Achterbahn fahren macht Spaß – egal ob wir gerade den Berg hoch oder runter rauschen! Der Traditionelle Tantra Yoga Kurs gibt uns Werkzeuge an die Hand, das Leben zu verstehen und freudig zu leben, immer vor dem Hintergrund des kontinuierlichen spirituellen Wachstums.

This class blends the dynamic flow of Vinyasa with the steady grounding of Hatha. Through mindful sequencing, we build heat and energy in the body with breath-led movement, then pause to hold selected postures, creating space to explore alignment, stillness, and deeper breathing. The practice balances effort and ease, inviting both strength and softness - so you leave feeling energised, centred, and more connected to your breath. Open to all levels, and beginner-friendly. This class is held in English. You can bring your mat or use one of ours.

These vinyasa classes are positively dynamic, soft and strong as silk, always connecting to the deep, guiding you gently to the awareness of your breath to calm the mind and release the body of unnecessary tension. Modifications of the poses are offered to better suit each practitioner, from experienced beginners to advanced. Taping into a background of cultural diversity, dance and massage therapy, these sessions are a holistic practice with asanas, free form movement, music, voice, and silence. Each month the classes have a specific focus (i.e. twists, balance, resilience, chakras) to effectively process and develop the connection between mind, body, and spirit. **deutsch** Vinyasa Yoga ist gezeichnet durch fließende Bewegungen und Sequenzen von Asanas die bewusst in Verbindung mit der Atmung stehen.

**Module 4 out of 4 \| February 20th – 22nd 2026 \| Nicolae Catrina \(Adinathananda\) \| Berlin \(MahaYoga Zentrum\)** **Starting on February 20th at around 19:00 CET and ending on February 22nd at 17:30 CET.** *Please be aware, that you **can** participate if you didn’t participate at the previous modules.* **About the Workshop** Patanjali’s treatise ‘Yoga Sutras’ is more than two thousand years old, but is still one of the best manuals for a harmonious and successful Yoga practice, which contains the essence of Yoga. It describes in detail the different states of meditation and spiritual awakening as well as the fundamental principles and ethics of Yoga, Yama and Niyama. Being based on inner experience, rather than exclusively theoretical knowledge, makes this treatise effective for anyone. The Tantric perspective on Yoga Sutras assists us to realise, that not only a safe and direct way to godly ecstasy (samadhi in Sanskrit) is described, but also on how to bring this elevated state of consciousness back to everyday life, outside of our Yoga practice. By achieving a deeper understanding and bringing life and depth to Patanjali’s aphorisms as well as access to the foundation of Yoga and the opportunity to experience samadhi here and now, either due to personal continuous practice or with Tantric practice in a loving couple, is what the Tantric perspective enables us to do. The purpose of this workshop is to reveal Patanjali’s brilliant vision of this path, which is found in all spiritual traditions, the refocussing on our essential Self (Atman in Sanskrit) from our ego (ahamkara). This is done by presenting the deep understanding and intuition, which are required to unveil the secrets of the Yoga Sutras. Practical methods, based on the original Sanskrit text, will be shared in order to: * Transform almost every moment of our daily life into a blissful spiritual realisation * Hugely improve both the quality, and the transformative power of our Yoga or Tantra practice * Obtain the revelation of our essential Self (Atman) * Deeply harmonise our love relationships * Enjoy an ever happy and fulfilling life. Join us for this culminating fourth module, where we journey into the serene and luminous teachings of the final chapter of the Yoga Sutras. Here, Patanjali reveals Kaivalya — the ultimate state of freedom, where the mind dissolves into stillness and pure consciousness rests in its own essence. Together, we will explore the profound liberation that arises when identification with thought and form falls away, and the practitioner abides in the clarity of their true nature. This final stage is not about gaining, but about releasing — the return to wholeness, simplicity, and peace. Rooted in deep practice and insight, this module invites us to experience the quiet radiance of awareness itself — the essence of yoga fulfilled. **About the instructor** **Nicolae Catrina (Adinathananda)** is a yoga instructor with more than 30 years of experience. Two decades ago he founded the only Kashmir Shaivism course in Europe that offers to the thousands of participants from Romania and abroad the riches and profoundness of this spiritual tradition in a unique way that is adapted to western mentality. His deep interest for various forms of authentic spirituality and his spiritual intuition have helped him elaborate over time a series of initiatic courses, such as Tantric Alchemy, Enneagram or esoteric I-Ching. He also created a unique system for the revelation of the Essential Self, Atman, based on a supramental approach – but also a very accessible one – for the revelation of the Self (based on the enlightening esthetic experience) that has already helped thousands of aspirants take important steps towards discovering their essential divine nature. He is the author of many books on Shaivism, Yoga, Tantra, Alchemy, initiatic art etc. He has translated many important yogic and tantric texts, such as Sundaryalahari, Shiva Samhita or Gheranda Samhita. He exclusively offers in his Shaivism courses numerous traditional, esoteric works, such as Shiva Sutra, Spanda Karika, Vijnana Bhairava Tantra etc., as well as their practical, deeply transforming knowledge in a new, innovative way. **Program** **20th of February** Evening session: 19:00 – 21:30 **21st and 22nd of February** 1st session: 10:30 – 13:00 Break: 13:00 – 15:00 2nd session: 15:00 – 17:30 **Price per module** **Early-Bird for the third module (until December 31st 2025):** 130,00 € **Normal:** 200,00 € **Cancellation policy** **Cancellation until 20th of January 2026:** Full refund **Cancellation between 21st – 31st of January 2026:** 15,00 € cancellation fee **Cancellation between 1st – 19th of February 2026:** 50 % cancellation fee (of the paid price) **Cancellation after 19th of February 2026:** No refund **Address** Deutsche Akademie für traditionelles Yoga e.
