Are you longing for more freedom and aliveness? Do you want to live authentically? Do you want an increased sense of intimacy with life?
In this short but powerful introductory workshop you can get a glimpse of yourself as a relaxed open being; you can experience the relief of letting go.
Letting go of your masks, exploring your desires and your boundaries, expressing yourself freely. In short this class is about being intimate with (all parts of) yourself. And from that place connecting truthfully to another person.
“It’s all done with love and attention by the teacher who knows what she’s talking about. It’s diverse and feels complete. I felt great afterwards. ”
— ANDRE (PARTICIPANT INTRO TO TANTRA)

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
During this profound and experiential Introduction workshop we will work with meditation, movement, breathwork, inquiry and touch.
In a safe and open space you are invited to connect truthfully with yourself and others. Always on a voluntary basis.

WHY?
The Intimate with Life workshop will allow you to
* experience more freedom and aliveness
* savor the relief of being whole (by including your shadows and desires)
* feel the beauty of true connection
* find joy in simplicity

FOR WHOM?
This workshop is for you if you’re curious what Tantra is about and/or if you wish for more ease in your life. As a seasoned practitioner you can use this workshop to enliven or deepen your practice.
Intimate with Life is open for men and women of all shapes and sizes (regardless of sexual orientation); singles & (occasional) couples with a minimum age of 20 yrs.
This workshop is a powerful stepping stone to our Level One Tantra Training or our Tantra Year Training 25|26.
Once you get a glimpse of your full potential and aliveness, you want more of this profound Tantric work!
There is no prerequisite for this workshop.
“This was a truly transformational and eye-opening experience as our first time in Tantra. The space was incredibly safe, and the people equally as beautiful and accepting. Will highly recommend to friends.”
— JAKE (PARTICIPANT INTRO TO TANTRA)

YOUR TEACHER
Mirjam Maëla
Mirjam holds a master in Psychology and is trained as a coach specialized in working with language of the body.
For 20+ years she studied and practiced Dzogchen (Tibetan Buddhism) mainly at Rigpa and with Jan Geurtz. Nowadays her main interest lies in Śaiva Tantra, studying and practicing these profound teachings with Hareesh Christopher Wallis and Daniel Odier.
“There’s grace in the process of opening to our authentic beauty. I feel fortunate and grateful that I can provide people a safe space for exploring, releasing and expanding. Over and over again I feel a sense of wonder if I see people courageously open up to their true nature; fully embodied, intimate with all of life’s flavors”.
“Mirjam is full of wisdom to share”
— SHIRIN, PARTICIPANT
