About this Event

“Discover where sex meets spirit, where the dancer becomes the dance and where the whole of your being unites as a passionate embrace of life.” If you’ve ever been interested in exploring the full range Tantra – from spiritual awakening, to sacred sexuality, to just delighting more in the taste of your food and sensing the nature around you – then this is the place to do it! You will be held in a safe and encouraging space that respects all choices and aids in deeper intimacy with your own deep being. Set in the beautiful nature beside the Sequoia National Park area in California, this 4 day gathering will bring the cream of Tantra teachers to create and unforgettable experience. www.tantra-festival.com https://www.schooloftemplearts.org/Event/183/california-tantra-festival-ista-affiliated-event#.V4fYPDUYM8I EVENTS: Tantra Workshops * 5 Rhythms * Ecstatic Dance * Biodanza * Live Concerts * Yoga * Love Lounge * Cuddle Parties * Lake Beaches * Healing Temple * Sacred Ceremonies * CONFIRMED TEACHERS: Laurie Handlers * James Stevenson * Kamala Devi * Eugene Hedlund * Monique Darling * Shawn Roop * Peter Petersen * Richard Bock * Cathleene Cienfuegos * Macaya Miracle * Niraj Skilbeck * Noa Lakshmi * Rachel Rickards *Watch out for more teachers as they are added to the list!
