| This
workshop is a wonderful immersion into the joys of Tantra through
healing exchanges that deepen your connection with yourself,
others, and all of life. Learn to move kundalini, raise sexual
energy, and enhance pleasure through breath, imagery, and undulatory
practices that encourage ecstatic states. Explore
safe boundaries and healthy communication skills as we celebrate
our sensual selves. Sacred dance, singing, and sexual healing
peak in a lovely Puja, a deeply fulfilling Tantric ritual
of heart-centered interactions.
People
report their passions returning, gains in self esteem, more
expansive relationships and enjoying more love. Those who've
been wounded sexually gain from the support of empathetic
assistants and guest leaders who help them release these wounds
and their effects. We reclaim sovereignty over our bodies.
Come to develop the arts of eros and romance.
Evalena
creates such a loving and supportive container. The emphasis
on universal love, and self as beloved, truly creates a
sacredness to the whole weekend. I love Tantra. Its
healing, spiritual, embodied and fun!
As in ancient temples, women and couples who have practiced
Tantra for years, many in the healing arts, help you open
to the realms of healthy relationships. We seek solid, sustainable
growth, with therapists available to offer support in facing
the challenges in becoming more erotic and sensual.
You join a compassionate community enjoying the pleasures
of blossoming into love. Singles become their own best beloved
and more available to sacred union. Couples find a safe haven
for revitalizing passion and eroticism and to open to new
levels of connection and communication.
"Life altering and heart opening. It brings
me to the truth of who I am."
Find
your passion returning, gain self esteem, feel expanded in
your relationships and enjoy more love. The nuturing atmosphere
created by therapeutically trained assistants helps sexual
wounds heal and release. We reclaim sovereignty over our bodies.

intimate and romantic arts in ways so joyful and sacred, it
heals the heart. What a privilege to be among those who celebrate
our awakening sensuality and a joy to have our true nature

of consciously evolving people. Also included are quotes from
those who've come before.

met...and I hope to

WHAT
DO YOU ACTUALLY DO IN A TANTRA WORKSHOP?
We
explore the spiritual practices of Tantric breath work, learning
how to move kundalini through the body in ways that create
ecstatic states. We celebrate ourselves in song and sacred
dance as well as heart-centered and joyous ritual. Exploring
movement and meditative work around eros helps you come to
fully live in your body and be more available for pleasure
and passion.
You'll
enjoy sweet, heart-centered ways of connecting and getting
to know each other through a variety of interactions and exercises.
Through our study of boundaries, verbal and energetic, you'll
learn how you usually connect plus new options for deeper
contact while staying in your own heart, available to receive.
You'll learn erotic communication, developing ways to ask
for what you want where both people gain what they desire.
"Another
life-altering event in the Temple! Amazing how you keep
evolving!"
You'll
find Assistants helping you with individual attention as needed
to help you free up your body, learn the undulations that
move kundalini, and work through any emotions ready for release.
The orgasm reflex work helps retrain your body to remember
these natural movements.
We
thoughtfully discuss ways to take care of yourself while respecting
and honoring boundaries. We consciously prepare people for
Saturday's Puja so everyone can fully open to ejoy this celebration
of pleasure, an delightful way to practice skills we study.
"The
richness of this work is extraordinary. A true temple of
the Goddess --
so sacred, full of love, safe, full of power. An exquisite
journey of love."
The
Puja provides opportunities for the sweetest, kindest, most
nurturing connections you could possibly imagine. Each interaction
deepens your connection with yourself and opens possibilities
for truly meeting others "Essence to Essence". Women
and men find themselves feeling happy, nourished, fed, honored,
accepted, and appreciated, often laughing with delight, sometimes
crying out old wounds, and almost universally ending up feeling
satiated and satisfied.
"My
partner and I had a beautiful time, so close. Each station
was unique,
some purely spiritual, some highly charged with sexual energy.
Truly
a privilege to share so intimately with remarkable women."
On
Sunday, we do deep meditative work of reclaiming our sexuality
and our passion, then we share from the amazing experiences
of the Puja. You'll learn erotic communication practices that
help both people get what they want from exchanges and make
for more joy in relationship.
We
may do sacred or erotic touch or some deeply healing internal
work about coming into a loving relationship with our own
sexual nature. We complete with one on one exchanges that
help us appreciate and honor all we've risked and gained,
and end with a song and spiral dance celebrating our growing
community.
"Yummy,
insightful, clearing, fulfilling, healing, playful, explorative,
helpful, informative, loving, utterly great and exactly
what I needed!!"
WHO
ATTENDS THESE WORKSHOPS?
Many singles and some couples, mostly heterosexual.
Couples may choose to do the exercises together all or in
part -- all choices are honored. Your dakini team (temple
servants) include two couples deeply in love who will demonstrate

singles then couples come, enjoying many delightful partners
within our well-boundaried container. People return who have
studied Tantra for years, and breathing with them helps new
people more easily embody the work.
