A tried and true method of nearly 30 years for enhancing true, authentic intimacy. Read more here - https://www.janetmcgeever.com/making-love-retreatThis retreat is ideal for couples who:
- Feel disconnected emotionally and physically and who feel 'out of sync' sexually.
- have opposite sex drives/libido and are at a stalemate in their relationship. Men or women who feel they are impotent or have low libido.
- who want to enhance the beauty that is already there in their relationship.
- Feel their relationship changing, going through a new stage due to aging or menopause - the bodies don't quite work the way they used to - and want to re-calibrate to a new way of making love.
- any age. We have had couples from between 18 and 80.
CONSCIOUS SLOW SEX CAN TRANSFORM YOUR RELATIONSHIP.
But this is not just 'slow sex'. It is a method developed to consciously create deep connection through simple yet effective practices to enhance deep relaxation and connection to the self. Thus enhancing exquisite presence between a couple from which love grows.
The Making Love Retreat is also a COMPLETE RE-EDUCATION around sex, with implications that reach far beyond the act of sex itself. A holistic approach to sexuality, communication, dealing with emotions, that is changing lives and thus families with its ongoing ripple effect.
No matter how devoted you are to each other, if you’re not really connecting when it comes to making love, that lack of connection may affect so many other parts of your relationship.
The Making Love Retreat, as created by founder of the Slow Sex movement, Diana Richardson, world renowned leader of conscious sexuality and author of 9 books on Tantra, is a 6 day live-in retreat for couples in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast, Qld held from Sunday 10th - Saturday 16th May 2026.
Created for couples who value their relationship, want an authentic deeper intimate connection with each other, without closing down or compromising themselves.
Your facilitator: JANET McGEEVER
Janet lives locally in Noosa and is co-author of Tantric Sex and Menopause, and is the only Australian teacher of The Making Love Retreat which she has been teaching since 2012. She was a TEDx speaker in Noosa TEDx in 2013. As a Psychotherapist, she has supported couples for over 20 years in private practice to connect more deeply in their intimate relationships.
About the retreat -
The Making Love Retreat has been running in Switzerland for almost 30 years by the originators, Diana and Michael Richardson, and has helped thousands of couples to transform their intimac.
“In this 6 day Retreat a couple is given a completely new insight into sex, and its function within a relationship. Most of the unhappiness experienced in love has its source in dissatisfaction with sex. When the real truth about sex is clarified, sex becomes a potentially healing force and not a potentially disruptive one.“
— Diana Richardson, creator of The Making Love Retreat®
YOU'LL RECEIVE :
- 6 days and nights at Noosa Springs Spa Resort, in a beautiful setting nestled behind Noosa National Park and bordering on a natural lake behind Noosa.
- World-class tuition on Tantra, as designed by Diana Richardson, now the leading authority of the change in the field of sexuality and conscious relationships. Many Tantra teachers refer to her work as a recognised source. (All retreats are fully clothed in the group room)
- Personal attention from Janet and her assistant, Jodie, who has assisted for 6 years. Janet has held this retreat since 2012 and has taught Tantra for 13 years.
WHAT THIS IS NOT :
- a group sex romp naked in the group room!
- partner swapping exercises
- sharing your deepest secrets with a bunch of strangers
- a teaching about techniques to move energy here and there
WHAT THIS IS :
- a safe environment where you are fully supported by professionals
- a private space just for you and your partner to relax and share in a dynamic teaching that will stay with you for the rest of your life
- a supportive environment where you will learn certain awareness and mindfulness practices that you can take into many other parts of your life
- a week of being with like-minded people and have real honest and intelligent conversations about sexuality - you will feel equipped to share with your children or grand children when the time is right
- a small group of maximum 8 couples, where your privacy is assured
And once again, just to make it clear, there is no nudity or demonstrations during the retreat. It is a private couple experience.
This retreat is described by some as a 'coming home', a 'spiritual honeymoon', a 'reawakening to love'. Couples feel the impact whether they have been together 3 months, or 30 years.
WHAT COUPLES ARE SAYING
"The Making Love Retreat is so much more than making love. It is essential relationship work that would benefit any couple wanting to deepen their relationship. In addition to that, the deep personal transformation that unfolds is breathtaking. The sharing that occurs and the relationships that develop with other couples is also truly beautiful. It would open the hearts of most people.
The location of the event is pure magic, and the attention to detail in every aspect of the event by Janet, Gene and Jodie was exceptional and an illustration of their love and passion. I initially felt the retreat was quite pricey, but after attending felt it was incredible value for money, and worth so much more than we actually paid. I would absolutely recommend the MLR to any couple wishing to grow and flourish."

"I cannot speak more highly of Janet's Making Love Retreat that I attended with my husband. The teachings are so simple and yet so profound. A year prior to the retreat, we had decided to separate after 17 years of marriage. Our relationship had become very stuck and toxic, which underneath was all related to a loss of loving intimacy. The retreat has completely transformed our relationship. If any of the old ways of relating come back, we simply come back to the practices from the retreat, and we instantly return to deep love, relaxation and harmony in our relationship and our family unit with our teenage sons."
- Jane Mallick, Yoga Teacher
"I was frustrated and helpless regarding sex in my marriage. Now with slow sex I feel inspired, empowered and excited to be the lover for my wife that she truly needs to find healing, ecstasy and orgasmic bliss in nurturing love. Through slow sex I can heal my pattern of feeling “not good enough’."
- Uhlrich Kuhnhardt
"This week has softened me, marinated me and opened me to really connect with this beautiful man in a way that I have always wanted. The love making is a 180% shift from the unfulfilling robotic way that I was. I feel overflowing presence that has somehow taken me effortlessly to ecstatic states that I have never experienced before. This work can change the world."- Sharon Turton
