Tantra:Love:Orgasm November 16, 2007

Everybody wants a fulfilling, intimate relationship. Yet all too often we get stuck in uninspired ruts. We make love the same old way; our dysfunctional relationship patterns get repeated time and again. We think, "Next time it will be different". It isn't, because WE haven't yet changed.

Attendees of this 2 day-3 night San Francisco residential retreat weekend (called "Tantra:Love:Orgasm") will discover new sexual theories and techniques, based on The Bliss Experience. We will dive deep into the intersection of ancient arts and an intentional urban immersion.

Our past loss of intimacy, and first two sexual experiences, affect our dance moves and our comfort with people. We will use Applied Kinesiology to identify and release the trauma we all carry from loss of intimacy when we were infants.
Participants will:

* Feel lighter, clearer and uplifted - as traumatic cellular memory is released
* Feel empowered and energized - with Tantric techniques to fill you with prana
* Become confident with new communication skills - as you learn non-verbal communication tools with your partner
* Learn dance techniques with a partner - every night you will learn dance moves and have opportunities to practice 'Bliss Dancing'. Did you ever see "Dirty Dancing"? Bliss dancing is even more outrageous!

Experience:

* New ways to communicate with a partner through mudra (nonverbal communication) and dance
* How old experiences are preventing your joy in the present
* How to perform Initiation Ritual
* Breath work to increase energy in the body
* Kama Sutra demonstration with polarity holds
* Bliss through Tantric Dance and Sacred Play
* Awareness of the distinctions of the Kama Sutra, Tantra and Bliss
* Savor Healthy Food, Hiking and Walking in Nature

WEEKEND LEADER:

Nicole Daedone is the founder and visionary of OneTaste™ San Francisco, an urban retreat center dedicated to bringing conscious sensuality into the mainstream. Daedone's strength lies in her willingness to explore all aspects of the human experience, from the profane to the sacred, and view everything as divine. She encourages students to explore all parts of themselves, to reveal what they hold inside to the outer world. Whether they label sensation as good or bad; as desire, obsession, jealousy, anger or embarrassment, to exclude nothing felt by the body, to embrace every experience and feel gratified by it all. OneTaste Urban Retreat has Centers in San Francisco and New York which are run by a community of over 50 practitioners who are researching and documenting their experiences in sensuality. www.onetaste.us

WEEKEND CO-LEADER:

Viktor Grant studied Tantra from many teachers, practiced Kama Sutra exercises and received initiations at sacred sites, including the Great Pyramid of Egypt, as well as many Mayan and Aztec temples in Mesoamerica. He has taught his workshop (called The Bliss Experience) over a dozen times in Hawaii and twice at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur with amazing results. http://viktorpiano.com/seminars.html
