More information about Tantric Latihan..Tantric Latihan is your body's native language, finally given room to speak. Imagine shedding the weight of "should" and "supposed to." This blindfolded practice is a raw, honest exploration where your body leads and your mind has the opportunity to take a much-needed break. Some people flow like water, others stand still as mountains, each following their own unfiltered expression surrounded by others doing the same. It's what happens when you strip away the thinking mind and let your deepest wisdom rise to the surface.


When you practice Tantric Latihan, you can discover what a real "yes" feels like in your bones. Those moments when your throat tightens but your mouth says "okay"? In this container, they become impossible to ignore. Your body becomes your most trusted advisor, guiding through intuition and sensations rather than second-guesses. Imagine feeling so grounded in your own truth that saying "no" feels as natural as breathing. The practice creates countless moments to test your edges - maybe it's choosing stillness while others move, or following an impulse to move when others are quiet. Each choice becomes a chance to strengthen your authentic voice. Those who've embraced this practice often find their inner compass grows stronger, rediscovering their body's wisdom that has been there all along, just waiting for space to be heard.


Latihan is an ancient Subud practice and in this context it has been re purposed for Tantra through a lineage that can be traced back through Osho and adapted by Laurie Handlers as practiced in ISTA.


This is not a workshop. It is a life practice we are sharing in a communal space. We hope you integrate experience into your daily lives. This practice was taught to me by Laurie Handlers. One of her nicknames is "Latihan" as she embodies this practice in each moment as she lives her dream of traveling the world teaching and facilitating. You can follow her work here https://lauriehandlers.com/


Disclaimer: Youtopia DreamSpace is dedicated to ensuring the highest level of comfort, safety, and connection for all our Latihan attendees. As part of our commitment to create an enchanting and harmonious experience, we will be thoughtfully curating the guest list for this event. Our selection process aims to maintain an inviting and balanced atmosphere that encourages genuine connections and fosters a sense of community. We appreciate your understanding and support in our efforts to make this a magical and unforgettable experience for everyone.
