A 2-day exploration of Tantra...
In the speed and intensity of modern life, it is easy to live from the head: managing, achieving, analysing, scrolling, coping — while the body, heart and deeper self quietly wait to be included again.
Initiation Into Tantra is a two-day immersion in London where you are invited to slow down, reconnect with your body, awaken your heart, and explore authentic Tantra in a safe, respectful and beautifully held environment.
This immersion offers you a unique chance to experience the essence of Tantra in a safe, nurturing environment.
Come join us for an unforgettable experience that goes beyond the surface, deeply connecting you with yourself and with other like-minded people.
Introducing Initiation Into Tantra...
Initiation Into Tantra is an immersive two-day journey blending ancient wisdom with modern teachings. Designed to awaken your heart, foster authentic connection, and guide you into deeper spiritual awareness, this retreat invites you to discover your own inner ecstasy. Through carefully crafted guided meditations, energy practices, and conscious partner exercises, you may leave feeling more relaxed in your body, clearer in your heart, more connected to others, and more able to bring presence, sensitivity and aliveness into everyday life.
Guided by expert Tantra Essence faculty, this retreat creates a space for both singles and couples to experience Tantra in a way that’s safe and supportive way. Whether you’re new to Tantra or have been exploring it for some time, this journey is crafted to help you tap into deeper levels of awareness, cultivate personal empowerment, and harmonize with the world around you.
Over the two transformative days, we guide you on a journey from the mind into the body — into presence, trust & authentic connection.
In a safe and supportive space, you'll have a chance to express yourself freely, be seen without needing to perform and reconnect with yourself & others in a grounded way. You'll let go of overthinking, release what no longer serves you and soften your inner critic.
This is a non-residential weekend immersion. You return home or to your accommodation each evening, while being held in a clear, transformational group field throughout the two days.
Who is this for?
This immersion is perfect for you if:
✅ You spend a lot of time in your head and want to feel more present, grounded and embodied.
✅ You are curious about Tantra but want to explore it in a safe, respectful and non-pressured environment.

Suta
Suta has over 25 years experience in the healing arts of Tantra, Breathwork, Massage, Transcendence, Meditation and Darkness Retreats. He has worked closely with Ma Ananda Sarita since 2008 and has led workshops and trainings in 15 countries.
He facilitates people looking to evolve through, and in, Love and Awareness by synergising the powers in sexuality and spirituality.

“The true spirit of my work is to give people who sense that "there must be something more", healing experiences of peace, timelessness & ecstasy that come from reconnecting the energies of sex, love & Spirit. “
Marija Marali
Marija Marali understands the quiet cost of a life that appears successful, yet feels disconnected from truth.
After over a decade in senior leadership roles in London and a foundation in Psychology and Ethics she met the reality many high-functioning individuals face, a burnout, emotional disconnection, and loss of intimacy with self.
In 2019 she stepped away to fully devote herself to Tantra, immersing in the contemplative traditions of Kashmiri Shaivism and the Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra. Through the Marali Tantric Intimacy Method, she guides high-achievers beyond performance into presence, working with the nervous system, the body, and awareness as pathways to clarity, intimacy, and inner stability.
Having supported thousands of students worldwide, she creates refined, intentional spaces where depth unfolds naturally. Those who have worked with her describe her spaces as both deeply challenging and profoundly safe & nourishing.
Learn Tantra in the safest & most authentic way
I am well aware of the myths surrounding Tantra.
It's disheartening that the word Tantra is sometimes misunderstood as a space for orgies or polyamory. Some even associate Tantra with black magic or witchcraft.
In reality, Tantra is a profound path of self-discovery. It is a space for emotional healing. It offers multidimensional tools for spiritual growth.
I am dedicated to providing a safe, respectful, and authentic environment for your transformative journey.
With Tantra Essence, you can trust that you are in the hands of experienced facilitators. Here, we honour the true essence of Tantra. We serve you by creating a safe space where you can thrive, grow, and discover the magic within.
I invite you to look beyond the myths and allow me and my kaula (team) to guide you towards the real wisdom of Tantra. This is a space where you will rediscover yourself, experience profound connection, and have a renewed celebration for life.
-- love & blessings --
