Introduction to Tantra - a workshop for beginners in Berlin

What is Tantra? How does Tantra differ from other spiritual or self-development practices? What is the role of sexuality in Tantra? What are the core principles of Tantra? Can Tantra be practiced alone or is it mainly for couples? How does Tantra enhance personal and spiritual growth?

This 4-hour workshop is designed specifically for beginners who are curious about Tantra and want to get a first taste of its profound teachings. With the aim to demystify, we’ll address common questions and misconceptions through both discourse and direct experience.

After the introduction round and discourse, you’ll be invited to practice a series of guided exercises designed to deepen your comprehension of Tantra's core principles. These practices include active meditation, energy practices and both solo- and partnered exercises, allowing you to tap in to an embodied experience of the teachings. You will gain tools that can be applied in your daily life, enhancing both your personal and spiritual growth.
What to expect

• Discourse and Q&A: learn about Tantra through discourse and ask your questions

Workshop facilitator
Hi! My name is Sophie. My passion for Tantra is rooted in a deep spiritual yearning and an inner knowing that Tantra is my path. My desire to teach Tantra has been sparked by having witnessed my own growth and healing as a result of these practices and it is inspired by a vision to create a more beautiful world.

I create a space that is loving and nurturing, with a strong emphasis on ensuring that you feel save and supported. My workshops are gentle yet transformative, spiritual yet grounded and always heart-centered. I'm passionate about bridging the wisdom of ancient Tantra with modern-day practices.

Sophie's classes were my first experience with Tantra, and they have been wonderful. She creates a safe and meditative space for practice, and guides us through the process confidently and with ease. The effects on me were immediate, after my first day retreat - my self-confidence and compassion grew hugely, and I have been able to view the world much more positively ever since.

Sophie's approach is welcoming, kind, gentle, but also very knowledgeable. She holds a wonderful space for opening up and vulnerability. I felt very safe to let go and to give myself fully to the different practices, or in Sophie words, "Be total." I felt that I was in safe and experienced hands. The practices teach me to be fully present with my body and my emotions. I also felt more able to be present with the energy inside my body. I very much recommend her workshops for anymore who would like to explore Tantra.
