What are Tantric Rituals?

We approach ‘rituals’ or ‘holding sacred ritual space’ a bit like cooking receipts. It requires preparation and clear intention, a bit of knowledge and experience, mixing the ingredients well and in a certain order for having a good and safe time, and for receiving a yummy result.

In other words, in a Tantric Ritual we create conscious space, with mutual consent and clear intentions. It has a defined beginning and end, and it is designed to help us deepen our experience in a safe environment with sharpened awareness and presence.

In our TTC you will experience ritual space with various contents, from contemplation and self awareness to exercises of a more active nature.
