1. Tantra for All workshop

An evening to feel, connect, play and come alive. What if you could leave your head at the door for a few hours? No analysing. No fixing yourself. No trying to become a better version of yourself. Just breathe. Move. Feel. Connect.

During Tantra for All, Afke Reijenga takes you on a playful and embodied journey through some of the foundations of tantra. Using breath, movement, sound, meditation, connection and conscious touch, we awaken the senses and explore what becomes possible when we slow down and become truly present.

Come alone or together. Come with experience or as a complete beginner. All you need is an open mind, a curious body and a willingness to explore. Everyone is welcome.

 

2. Intro in Tantra workshop

Experience some of the most beautiful exercises from a wide range of tantra practices, brought together in one accessible and uplifting evening.

During this tantra workshop, Afke introduces you to breathing exercises, seated meditation, conscious touch and massage, as well as specific tantric meditations from an ancient tradition. No previous tantra experience is needed.

 

3. Deepening into Tantra workshop

Are you ready to explore further?

In Deepening into Tantra, Afke takes you on a journey to connect more closely with your true self, moving out of the mind and into the sensations of the body. You will explore the flow of your life energy and meet yourself or your partner on a deeper, more authentic level.

In a gentle and safe way, Afke introduces you to beautiful ancient tantric meditations that awaken the body, open the senses and boost your energy. This workshop is more intense than the Intro to Tantra and is therefore best suited to those who have attended a tantra workshop at De Nieuwe Yogaschool or already have some experience with tantra.

 

4. Tantra for Women workshop

There is something magical that happens when women come together. We soften. We remember. We dare to take up space. For this evening, you don’t have to be anything for anybody. No roles to fulfil, no expectations, no performing. This is an evening to come back to YOU.

Through tantra, breath, movement, dance, sound and embodied practices, Afke invites you out of your head and deeper into your body. We explore sensuality not as something we create for somebody else, but as a life force that already lives inside us.

Can you feel without judging? Move without worrying about how you look? Receive without immediately wanting to give something back? We explore the many expressions of the feminine: from soft and receptive to powerful, sensual, raw and unapologetically alive.

No tantra experience is needed. Bring exactly the woman you are that evening. For women only,

 

5. Tantra for Couples workshop

When was the last time you really looked at your partner? Not while talking about work, the children or what needs to be done tomorrow, but really slowing down, looking into each other’s eyes and feeling: here you are.

This tantra workshop for couples invites you to step out of everyday life and return to connection. Through breath, movement, touch, eye gazing and playful tantric practices, Afke guides you towards a deeper connection with yourself and your partner. Expect connection, laughter, depth, sensuality and perhaps a few butterflies. You’ll leave with simple tantric practices that you can continue exploring together at home.

Come as you are, whether you have been together for three months or thirty years. You don’t need any previous tantra experience — just curiosity and a YES to exploring together. For couples of all genders and orientations.

 

All workshops will be offered in English (Dutch spoken if needed).
