Our
Awakenings
workshops invite you to step into the world of energy to experience
its transformative power. These workshops introduce
fundamentals on which all our work is based. The exercises and
structures we teach are for taking into your life, and practicing
regularly, as you would practice yoga or t'ai chi. |

"Just a note to let you know how wonderful I found
the workshop yesterday. For me it was truly amazing and I want more …
much more!!" |

"You both created such a safe place to work and just be in, it felt
exquisite. My fears from previous workshops fell away very quickly and
perhaps I have changed, but I did not feel the threat I usually feel in
a group work situation, it was absolutely extraordinary and to me
revolutionary. I could carry on waxing
lyrical about it all, but I
wont, I think you probably get the gist!! " |

In these workshops, we combine exploring the energetics of tantra
with practicing the traditional skills of stalking and
attunement embedded in our own native culture.
The tools we use include movement, breathing exercises, gentle touch,
guided meditation, massage, and practical techniques for healing
negative conditioning and enhancing pleasure. All these tools have become part of the repertoire of contemporary western
tantric practice. But
in all our work we also connect with the rhythms and energy of the natural world
which surrounds us.

1. Weekend Workshops:
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
The world has turned, the Spring Equinox is
past, and the sap is rising. Connecting with the energy of
the awakened Earth and the risen Sun, awakening the creative
flow of our own inner aliveness, circulating flow between sex
and heart and spirit, we learn to embrace the possibilities of a
new spring, a new aliveness. This workshop works very
strongly on the connection between pelvis and heart. |

The dark is returning, there is a keenness in the morning air after
the longer nights. There is a special richness at this time, the
time at which we stand poised between the outer and the inner worlds,
looking both ways, on the edge of what is traditionally known as the Dream Time
of our inner journeying. |
 |
|
Energetically, this workshop
focuses on nourishing the inner fires, and connecting with our roots.
This workshop focuses on strengthening and completing the energy
circle -- not only from roots to wings, but also from wings to roots. |

Awakening the Goddess
|
A workshop for women
only |
July 7,
2012 |
South
Brent, nr Totnes, Devon |
 |
|
Tantra is a way to feel ourselves fully alive, in touch with the sexual
fire at our core, awake to our sensuality and
creativity. In this workshop we will explore ways
of recognizing the goddess in ourselves and in each
other. We will work with breathing, dance
and movement, Tantric bodywork, and guided meditation to
take us deeper into our bodies, to celebrate our true beauty and grace as women. |

Stepping into Aliveness
(Repeated a couple of times
a year)
|
|
Sexual energy is
the source of our aliveness. Tantra teaches us how to
nourish and celebrate our sexual energy in ways which bring
greater wholeness into our lives. Tantra has the power to
transform the quality of our lives in every area of experience –
expanding our capacity for sensual pleasure, opening our hearts
to greater intimacy in our relationships, freeing our
creativity, and enriching the inner life of the spirit. Tools
used in this day workshop include movement, breathing exercises,
gentle touch and guided meditation. |
|
|
 |
|
Opening the Heart
(Repeated a couple of times a year) |
|
Tantra teaches that the way of the heart is
not separate from the path of physical
pleasure, and that in order to be free and
alive in our bodies we must also be soft and
open in our hearts. We all long for love and
connection, but often, because of past hurts
and disappointments, our hearts are closed
to the possibilities around us. In
this workshop we invite you to step beyond
your limitations, to allow your heart to
find its natural openness and trust, not
only to other people, but to yourself and to
the world around you. |
