Sensual Tantric Massage Workshop. The Kashmiri Ritual for Singles and Couples

A three-day course in Kashmiri tantric massage – a practice of slow, mindful touch that the facilitators describe as meditation in motion. The massage is done with plenty of oil, on mattresses, in four close positions: foetal, lying on the belly, lying on the back and yab-yum. The facilitators demonstrate each sequence on each other, and participants practise in their own pairs under their guidance. Strong emphasis is placed on consent, boundaries and safety: the degree of nudity is voluntary and anyone can say “stop” at any moment.

Who it is for

For couples in any configuration who are ready for nudity and touch, for singles – women and men – who want to learn a full massage session, and for beginners as well as people practising other forms of massage. Participants touch only their own partner; the group has an equal number of women and men. You need to be able to sit cross-legged for long periods.

Programme

• Day 1 (17:00–21:00): consent and confidentiality rules, boundaries, practices of contact and trust, three qualities of touch.

• Day 2 (10:00–approx. 18:00): awakening the energy body (qigong, pranayama), learning the Kashmiri massage sequence by sequence in four positions.

• Day 3 (9:00–approx. 16:30): a ceremony awakening the senses, full sessions of about two hours, closing and certificates.
