There is much misunderstanding about Tantra in our Western world. Tantra is not just a set of techniques in order to have some kind of high tech version of sex. Tantra offers practices that help us align with our deeper selves and techniques that are effective in finding our inner truth. Enhancing our ability to have pleasure is important, but focusing only on better, longer orgasms or more pleasure can be a distraction from the true understanding of Tantra as a way home. There is a subtle difference between those two intentions, yet all desire is legitimate and will ultimately bring us home. That’s the deepest meaning of Tantra.

This Tantra Practitioners Training is set in a rustic nature retreat setting where we approach the learning from the deepest, most integrated place possible. In addition to daily teaching of skills and practices, there will be nature immersion space where you are guided to awaken your sense of connection to mother Earth and receive wisdom directly from her to you. There will be time to explore the island in your free time.

Nature has the capacity to teach us, heal us and help us align with our highest wisdom. When we get still, when we listen and feel, when we sense the messages that mother Earth wants to share with us we become whole and happy. This is the essence of Tantra.

PoolIn this training, Tantra techniques are used to further the process of coming closer to nature and our inner essence. Tantra is like an art form; it’s paying attention to the beauty and power of life energy and sexual energy in order to become the most excellent lover and being. Seeing sex as a sacred energy, to make sexual intimacy a true form of art, you need creativity, skill, knowledge and wisdom. For this we need to get quiet, unwind, and allow time to stop, surrender and be receptive. In this training we create a unique setting that supports this attunement. This, along with the skills we will teach you, helps you become the being that can help others effectively and with ease.
