Introduction to Tantric Yoga

After several sold-out events across Australia and New Zealand, and after many inquiries, Cam Priyadarshana is offering the Denver community a one-off class influenced by the teachings of both traditional Tantra lineages as well as NeoTantra schools, that will introduce participants to the fundamentals of Tantric Yoga. Incorporating various breathing techniques as well as specific postures and meditation practices, this class will explore how to optimize and integrate sexual energy in the context of our fitness and spiritual practice. Touching on the notions of sublimation, orgasm and pranayama, this class acts as a taster of the experience that the complete course entails. What to expect in this 2-hour class: Sankalpa – Setting intention around orgasm. Pranayama - Breathing techniques to arouse sexual energy. Chakra System - Unlocking the major energy centers of the body. Dharana - The dynamics of focussing on sexual energy in areas other than the genitals. Sublimation - Exploring the movement of sexual energy throughout the whole body. Ritual - The power of creating a self-pleasure ritual. Remember, this particular class is based around a solo practice and there will be no partner work or nudity.
