You may be considering Tantra Massage as a profession, seeking to explore your own sexuality, or simply wish to share a deeper intimacy with your beloved.

On the Foundations weekend you will learn a fully body massage sequence that supports the relaxation of the body and enlivening of the life force energy. There is no intimate genital massage on this weekend, and all participants are invited to give and receive touch to one another.

You will receive an initiation into Tantric rituals of honouring and devotion.

For the workshops featuring massage to men (including lingam massage) and women (including yoni massage), live models will join us for the weekend for practise. We are deeply grateful to these courageous beings who share their bodies and their time for our education and experience.

If you wish to share this experience with your beloved, then you are welcome to come as a couple. You are completely in choice as to whether you partner with each other exclusively for the duration of the workshop, or work with other people in the group. People who come as a couple usually find that some exercises they feel comfortable to do with other people and some exercises they prefer to do together.

Yes! Just click on the ‘Private Tuition’ option in the upper menu bar to find out more. Some people prefer to learn one-to-one (or two-to-one if you are a couple) and we are happy to offer this.

If you have no previous experience of Tantra or bodywork, we may request that you attend a one to one session with us beforehand. It is essential that you have a sufficient level of maturity and awareness around your sexuality before participating in a workshop.

Our workshops are clothing optional. Participants are invited to undress to whatever level they feel comfortable with. There will be nudity in the room and it’s important that you feel at ease with this.

We recommend bringing a sarong to wear either when giving massage, or to pop on between practise sessions.

Tantra massage is offered from the floor. As such you need to be fit and flexible in your body in order to work from the floor. If you have back or knee problems, this may be unsuitable for you.

Participants are required to bring ‘nesting’ materials (such as a yoga mat, sheepskin rugs, or even a duvet) to make a comfortable massage space. If you are travelling from abroad (e.g. flying and limited in what you can bring), then we can usually supply you with nesting materials.

Entry is via a short online application form. Depending on your level of experience, we will arrange an online interview with you and/or recommend a private session.

Once we have approved your request to join the training, we will send you details of how to book.

Payment is 50% of the course fee to secure your place, with the remaining payment to be paid a minimum of four weeks before the workshop weekend. If you are booking within four weeks of the workshop, payment in full is required.

Please see our Terms & Conditions page for further information on bookings.

Our workshops are open to people of all genders and sexual orientations. There is an atmosphere of respect, acceptance and honouring at all times.

We like to ensure a good mix of physical forms and energies in the room, and so do not strictly gender balance (i.e. one man to one woman) our workshops. Therefore there may be times when you are invited to work with someone who is not your usual ‘type’. One of the gifts of Tantra is to see the Divinity in each and every human being. We move beyond personal preference and ideas of sexual attraction, into a space of honouring and appreciating all.

You may have a strong feeling about working with someone, or the degree of intimacy in the encounter. We encourage you to communicate this in a mature way. You may have different boundaries with different people and this is entirely appropriate. However, the boundaries should be guided by aliveness to the moment and awareness of yourself, not by a set of assumptions around who you can touch and who can touch you.

Currently there is no recognised qualification or standard to become a Tantric practitioner. Sadly this means that many people are offering services under the name “Tantric” with little understanding of the true depth and potential of the path.

For people who complete all 4 core workshops (Awakening, Shiva, Shakti, and Divine Devotion), there is a Certificate of Completion.

If you are interested in practising Tantra Massage as a profession, we offer guidance and support to you on your journey. Depending on where you are starting from, we may recommend you attend other trainings in Tantra and/or massage/bodywork in order for you to develop your personal awareness and professional skills.

Gayatri offers a Group Mentoring Programme for aspiring and active practitioners. She is passionate about supporting you to have a practice that is safe, sustainable and sacred. Group Mentoring is only available to those who have trained with Gayatri, and the next programme will run in 2020.
