Kinky Tantra

Saturday 24 May 2025 at 10:00 until Sunday 25 May 2025 at 18:00

Weesperzijde, 1091 Amsterdam, Nederland

Over dit evenement

The intersection of neo-Tantra and kink offers a dynamic space where polarity is defined not by gender, but by power dynamics, intention, and mutual consent. This integration of playful and mindful practices can foster a deeper sense of empowerment and surrender, unlocking personal growth, creativity, and inspiration. Through consciously engaging with these practices, individuals may discover new pathways for self-expression, emotional release, and interpersonal connection.

This workshop includes opportunities to:
- Learn the basic principles of Tantra, BDSM, and how both practices can overlap and strengthen each other.
- Experiencing the yes, no, and space in between in your body, and letting that guide you.
- Awaken your intuitive powers to deepen your play.
- Integrate the principles of Impeccable Consent in the design of your scenes
- Use your body as the most sensual tool for play, getting/improving skills in using different toys of impact (hands and small impact play tools like paddles or floggers) and using them in a Tantric way.
- learn a kinky variation of a full-body Tantric massage
- And get to know amazing like-minded people in the best way! We usually host a very diverse crowd that is of mixed ages, gender, experience levels, and backgrounds.



Why combine conscious kink and principles of (neo-)tantra?

Conscious kink is about embracing explicit polarity in intimate interactions. In everyday lovemaking, roles like giving vs. receiving, or leading vs. surrendering, can blur, causing disconnection. Kink helps restore that clear, exciting polarity. Intentionally crafted kinky scenes can be powerful tools for trauma healing, reclaiming inner strength, and confronting parts of ourselves we fear, both in dominant and submissive roles, allowing us to fully embrace our power.

Tantra, on the other hand, teaches full acceptance of everything happening in the present moment without judgment. It’s a path of deep surrender to life, helping us move out of suffering and into a flow of bliss, peace, and joy.

Combining kink and Tantra creates experiences that blend presence, safety, and acceptance with playfulness, edge, and ecstatic pleasure.

We will use methodologies like meditation, breathwork, dance, sharing, touch, consent-based practices, kinky practices involving Domination/submission dynamics, and optional impact play.

FOR WHO IS THIS WEEKEND?
This workshop is beginner-friendly, although those with (a lot of) experience in Tantra or kink are equally welcome. You don’t need prior experience to enter this workshop, although some experience with workshops in the realms of tantra, consent, cuddling, etc can be helpful. We do ask you to be comfortable enough with nudity and sexy interactions in the room.

If you wish to gain some prior experience we have workshops that offer a great preface to this workshop consider Tantra for Every Body, a (Tantric) Cuddle Workshop, and/or a Pink Play Party

All our workshops are queer-centered and straight-friendly. That means, to us, that our workshops embrace diversity beyond the traditional cisgender, straight, slender, able, neurotypical, or young body.

This event welcomes folks from all walks of life. We are LGBTQIIA+ informed (Wilrieke and most of her team identify as such), slut-friendly, trauma-informed, and non-monogamy informed. White folks are overrepresented in our team and life experiences are coloured through that lens. We do come from different social backgrounds and have different life experiences when it comes to health, wealth, neurodiversity, gender, sexual orientation, etc.

We welcome folks with disabilities. We can adapt exercises so that they fit you. Where we can we will support you. If you have a person/animal that supports you in daily activities that you need to bring for your care, they can of course come with you without buying a ticket. Please reach out if you have special needs, and we will discuss how we can support you. In case we cannot comfort your needs, we will honestly let you know.

Partnering for exercises is never based on (assumed) gender. We usually have a mixed crowd.

You can come alone (many people do), with your partner/s or friend/s. If you come with a partner you are welcome to stay together for the whole workshop, or play with others too.

The weekend consists of exercises that you can do on your own, in two’s, or in larger groups. There will be sharings in smaller groups and in the whole group. Towards the end of the weekend there is a short play party: a contained amount of time where you get to practice what you’ve learned freely with our support and guidance.

As in all of our workshops, you are encouraged to sit out of anything. Witnessing is valid participation.

This is a pink workshop, which means that sensual interactions are welcome, but undies stay on.

ABOUT THE PLAY PARTY / FREE FLOW
Towards the end of the weekend there is a (shorter) play party or free flow. This part of the program is meant as a designated time for you to choose your experience: practice what you have learned, meditate, massage, cuddle, journal, you name it.

What if you are nervous about the play party? Don’t worry! A lot of folks are. And a lot of folks come out of a play party saying things like ‘this was so much fun! Playing here felt so innocent. And watching all these people play, my gosh, so yummy!’. Remember that there is nothing you have to do. To watch, dance, cuddle, meditate, read a book or have a lovely chat is just fine!



A NOTE ON THE THE TANTRA I TEACH

There are many flavours of tantra. The tantra I teach can be considered ‘eclectic neo-Tantra’: Tantra that is a mixture of different lineages and styles of Tantra, brought to you through the lens of a white, queer, Dutch person raised and socialized as a woman.

There were great masters who brought the original tantra to the Western world. I haven’t learned from these masters directly but from their students (or their student’s students). Some of these lineages: Osho/Bhagwan Rashneesh, Chogyam Rinpoche, Crazy Wisdom, Tao Tantra, and Kashmiri Shaivism.

From these lineages come masters with lots of wisdom, but also lineages that are often not free from abusive practices. That’s why I weave neuroscience and a lot of consent practices into my teachings.

Kinky Tantra

Hele fijne ervaring in een omgeving waarin je je enorm op je gemak voelt en waar veiligheid en consent voorop staan. Niets moet en er is ook geen enkele druk om welke grens dan ook over te gaan. Wil je voor jezelf wel wat meer het randje op zoeken dan mag dat ook. De workshop bracht nog zoveel meer dan van te voren gedacht en verwacht en de begeleiding hierin was echt geweldig. Heel dankbaar dat ik dit samen met mijn partner heb mogen meemaken. Het is voor ons een enorm waardevol weekend geweest! Lieve groet Ernst-Jan
