Sacred Intimacy – Tantraweekend for couples

From Friday evening September 18 to Sunday afternoon September 20, I invite you to a deepening tantra weekend at the beautiful location the Kolkhuis in Hattem. During this weekend we work with the theme sacred, the holy, and intimacy. What is intimacy for you and what does it mean to truly be present in contact with yourself and the other?

Intimacy can be a beautiful place to enjoy and to grow. It is pre-eminently an area in which it can be fulfilling to feel deep contact with yourself and from there to meet the other. Tantra carries within it the potential to be an entrance to deep connection and opening, with yourself and with the other. At the same time it is also an area in which it is often exciting to open yourself to the deepest level and to show yourself. In this weekend we create a foundation in which you can explore this step by step, at your own pace. From the intimacy with yourself and with the other, tantra can become more and more self-evident, effortless and fulfilling.

We create a safe, open and careful setting in which you can slow down, feel and discover. Together with my assistant I hold the field so that there is space for everyone’s process, with respect for boundaries, pace and personal space. During the weekend you can expect, among other things, meditation, breathwork, sharing rounds, inquiries and tantric exercises. We also work with tantric rituals and structures that support you to sink deeper into yourself and into contact.

We work with a small group of a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 10 participants, which makes grounding, attention and depth possible. Some moments can be new or slightly uncomfortable, precisely in that often lies the entrance to deepening. Everything happens by invitation and never from pressure. The exercises invite you to make deeper contact with yourself and from there with the other, whether that is a partner or an occasional partner. We explore, among other things, the polarity between the masculine and feminine and how you can feel safe enough to truly open yourself.

A number of exercises can optionally be naked. In this, it always applies that nothing is required. You are invited to feel and follow your own boundaries, with respect for yourself and the other. The largest part of the weekend takes place with clothes on. Central is self-inquiry, consciously being present with what is alive in you without forcing anything. What presents itself receives space and attention, without us fixing the program in detail in advance, so that you can come without expectation and you can surrender to what unfolds in the moment.

This weekend is intended for people who have already developed a certain degree of awareness and can carry themselves in what moves inside. It is not a setting for deep trauma work and also not intended for fleeting contact, sex, sexual acts or the acting out of eroticism. When larger themes are present we recommend first seeking individual guidance. In addition to the inner work you are taken care of with delicious vegetarian meals, prepared by a cook, and you stay in a place in the middle of nature that supports rest and stillness.
