About this event

  • 12 hours

Are you intrigued by the mysteries of Tantra? Are you hesitant or unsure due to various misconceptions? Are you seeking a secure and nurturing environment among like-minded women to embark on a journey of self-discovery to explore your sexuality and sensuality?

Perhaps you have been looking for a safe place to practice putting yourself first while honouring your boundaries and fully receiving. Or maybe you would like to cultivate greater trust, profound connection and deeper intimacy when relating with other women…

Then we welcome you to join us for Safe to Surrender, a transformative series of workshops exclusively designed for people living in female bodies regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, or differently-abledness. In this sacred space, you will have the unique opportunity to delve into the profound teachings of Tantra and engage in diverse practices within a safe and supportive circle of women.

Together we will unravel the secrets of Tantra, unveiling its beauty and depth. Within this empowering environment, you will learn and grow, embracing your true self and the intricacies of your sexuality. Our workshops provide a nurturing space to foster personal growth and raise collective consciousness.

Immerse Yourself in a Full-Day Journey of Sensual Exploration

Prepare to embark on a transformative day of self-discovery, where time slows down, and every step is carefully guided. Our skilled facilitators will lead you through the fundamental aspects of Tantra. We will start with some baseline practices that include grounding, breathwork, eyegazing, mirror exercises, conscious dance/movement, and archetype embodiment. Then we will gradually expand upon these according to the needs of the group, meeting you where you are at while ensuring that you feel supported every step of the way.

As the day unfolds, we will culminate in an enlightening demonstration of a Tantric Ritual for Women, including the sacred practice of Yoni Massage. You will have the freedom to choose whether to observe or actively participate, honouring your comfort level and desires.

This series of workshops is designed to cater to a diverse audience, providing a space where women of varying levels of knowledge and curiosity can gather. Our aim is to foster continuous learning and evolution, offering future workshops tailored to each individual's journey.

You are at choice when it comes to your level of participation in every moment so you will not be expected or required to do anything that isn’t a “hell yes” for you. This is an invitation for you to connect with your inner truth and honour your boundaries. It's an opportunity to uncover any self-imposed limitations and embrace your deepest desires.

Join us for this extraordinary journey, where the profound beauty of Tantra awaits. It's time to step into a realm of self-discovery, sensual exploration, and personal empowerment like never before.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT WORKING WITH NADIA


“Nadia has a remarkable talent for holding a safe space which is charged with such divine energy, that I can only describe my lessons with her as Transcendental!”

~ Arwen J., Nelson Bay, NSW Australia (Taoist Tantric Massage & Women’s Sacred Practices)


“Nadia holds a beautiful sacred space, full of wisdom ready to be shared. Her grounded and nurturing nature helped me feel at ease, guiding me to dive deep into my own divine sensuality/sexuality. I now have more wonderful tools for my own inner journey, both for myself and to share with others. Thank you Nadia!”

~ Nathalie A., Alicante, Spain (Private Tantric Sessions)


“Nadia – yesterday was magical. I experienced so soo much Love when you touched and embraced me it shook and touched me to my core. It was so beautiful I cried. I still cry now whenever I think about the experience that we had. To me it was just pure Love and Union.

I wonder if it’s something that you’re meant to receive as a kid from your mother but I never did. Yesterday when I said I felt awakened I meant I felt that something was awakened within me. You opened and roused something within me that was so beautiful and powerful I still am at a loss for words when I try to describe it… I have noticed some big shift in my being, energy, and expression today too… I am sending so much love and gratitude your way.

I feel so lucky to have met you.”

~ Annaki N., Bondi, NSW Australia (Tantric Massage Meetup)


WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT WORKING WITH JANA


Thank you so much for the workshop! It provided me with a wealth of insight, wisdom, and down-to-earth approaches to running a session. You included numerous enjoyable tasks, and I genuinely felt a strong connection to the women. Thank you once again. You're truly awesome!

~Róisín~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)


For me, your Tantra practice has been a beautiful piece of the puzzle. Now, I thoroughly enjoy my body and sensuality, and I would never have thought that "such nonsense" - slowing down, lazing around, enjoying, and indulging - could be so fundamental. I've always been quite active and focused on efficiency, so I used to consider these activities a waste of time. But, in reality, the true waste of time was the long period during which I didn't engage in them. :)

~Linda~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)


Slow down, tune into your body. Experience more joy, and satisfaction, but also pleasure and energy in it. Jana knows how to do that.

~Anonymous Client~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)


Conscious touch, support, and love... These are the valuable takeaways from the session that I have integrated into my daily life and relationships. This applies not only to my relationship with my partner but also to the way I interact with other women. It's challenging to put into words, but my behavior towards other women has undergone a significant transformation. I've shifted from competition to compassion, unity, understanding, and support. I now recognize the divine essence within myself and in other women as well. Initially, it felt strange to receive such a massage from another woman, but I was pleasantly surprised by the results. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to every woman.

~Patricia~ (Yoni Massage)
