Sacred Mysteries of the Ecstatic Body

SACRED MYSTERIES OF THE ECSTATIC BODY! After the success of our first edition last January, when we welcomed 18 participants, to whom we express our heartfelt gratitude for their trust, courage and surrender, we felt inspired to organize a second edition of our 3-day workshop 'Sacred Mysteries of the Ecstatic Body' A journey into the sacred mystery of the body and a joyful exploration through ropes and massage. During this weekend retreat, we will delve deeply into our Sacred Bodies, primarily through conscious touch and conscious rope play. Set in the enchanting Conscious Castle—a beautifully restored 13th-century medieval gem with modern comforts—this fully guided and fully catered experience will provide a safe haven for your sacred exploration. WHAT TO EXPECT: By day, conscious touch will be explored through tantra massages, guided by Philippe Bonny, while conscious rope play will be led through shibari by Danny Karijopawiro. Our first evening will feature an ecstatic dance journey with Philippe, your DJ for the night. On the second evening, Danny will guide us in a conscious and playful way into our Temple Night—an intentionally crafted space designed to explore connection, intimacy and self-awareness with clear boundaries in a safe and respectful manner. Sunday will offer additional practice time for ropes, massage, or play in a very relaxed way. Step into a beautifully held environment where you will be invited to embody authenticity, presence, and consent. This event welcomes both couples seeking to deepen their relationship and sexuality and singles who love adventure. No prior experience with ropes or massage is required or having attended the first edition!
