Tantric Massage Course ~ Oxford
Book NowDive into the secrets of conscious touch, discovering sensuality, intimacy and refined Eros. Uncover the mysteries of the sacred masculine and feminine, connect more deeply with yourself while offering the wonderful gift of sensual bliss to another soul.
This course is designed to help people connect in a more profound, healing and soul-nourishing way.
By addressing the fundamental power of attraction and polarity which is at the heart of any relationship, you will gain a practical way of embracing and applying the principles of Tantra in your life.
The search for intimacy often seems fraught with risk and danger, but this is simply because it is usually done without love. When intimacy is approached from the heart, we begin to realise that, rather than stepping unprepared out into the wilderness, intimacy is a true journey home, imbued with all the feelings of safety, security and love that characterises discovering the route within, to our true self.
Who is this course for?
People who want to learn the art of intimacy in a practical way, who want to offer and receive touch in a very profound and conscious way that nourishes the soul.
People who want to develop spiritually. We will describe the fundamentals of physical massage technique, and then deepen this with Tantric principles to transform the massage into an elevated spiritual experience.

To many, the word massage summons up experiences of being pummelled or kneaded like dough. Immediately banish this image from your mind! Tantric Massage is completely different. It is a path to self knowledge. It is an unimaginably sublime experience in which we travel through layers of our being to reach the hidden treasures of one’s own self and that of the other. Here teacher Ben Carver describes to student Vivienne Rush the myriad delights of Tantric Massage.
What is Tantric Massage? (blog article)
“In this state of deep self-connection, tantric massage cuts the chains of fear, the shackles of shame and inhibition, any constrictions in the heart.”
Tantric massage is a spiritual practice in its own right. Like a river with many streams flowing into it, there are many aspects to the practice of tantric massage. To both give and receive tantric massage is a beautiful and heartfelt step on the spiritual path, bringing an intense yet safe awakening of the erotic energies that are brimming with life, so that body, mind and soul overflow with love, and the joy of renewal and rejuvenation.
