Awakening Your Senses

Curious about tantra? This series gives you a practical introduction through your own experience.

For me, tantra begins with presence: noticing what's happening in your body, recognising what you want and staying connected with yourself when you're with another person. Each evening builds on the one before.

Evening 1 · I feel

Begin with your body and senses. Slow down and notice what you can feel, hear and see, alongside the thoughts you have about it. You'll discover how much happens when you take time to pay attention.

This evening provides the foundation for the series.

Evening 2 · I desire

What interests you? What draws you towards an experience, and what tells you it isn't right for you?

Explore desire, receiving and your own signals. Practise pausing before answering, noticing what you want and putting it into words.

Evening 3 · I connect

Being with someone else can bring ease, curiosity, tension, attraction or hesitation. You may notice a change in your breath or find your attention moving entirely towards them.

Evening 4 · I trust

Bring together sensation, desire, connection and trust. Explore what happens when you spend less time analysing and give more attention to your body and senses.

We'll finish with dance, music and celebration, letting what you've discovered become part of your lived experience.

A place to begin

No experience or partner is needed. These evenings offer time to discover what tantra means to you in practice.
