Tantra for couples · In-person intensive
A gathering for couples
We come together to love each other in the present.
Led by Astiko · With the collaboration of Jordi Gatell
Working exclusively with your partner
Does this feel familiar?
A space to pause, step away from your routine for a few days and truly see each other again.
To rediscover presence, intimacy, playfulness, listening and the place within us from which we once chose to walk together.
As time goes by, living together, responsibilities, children, work and everyday difficulties can gradually fill the space that once belonged to connection.
Sometimes we still love each other,
but we stop truly meeting.
You talk about what needs to be done, but you miss pausing, looking at each other and giving each other your undivided attention.
You would like to move closer without rushing, without having to perform and without your time together having to end in any particular way.
You want to listen to each other more honestly, express what you feel and explore another way of experiencing intimacy together.
Returning to the present
We are not looking for a perfect relationship.
We are seeking to be present with what is.
Through the lens of Tantra
A relationship can become one of the deepest spaces for growth and awareness.
The other reveals us to ourselves. Challenges us. Opens us.
When we stop trying to change our partner and begin to listen and observe what is happening within ourselves, the relationship can become a path of self-discovery.
Through Tantra, we explore the possibility of meeting from a more authentic place, where body, heart and awareness can all be present.
The other is not there to complete us.
They are also there to reveal us to ourselves.
Sexuality, presence and life energy
In Tantra, sexuality is not understood solely as a sexual act.
An energy that can become presence, sensitivity, creativity, intimacy and meditation.
Over these days, we will explore how to return to the body, expand our capacity to feel and create a more conscious connection with our partner.
What we will explore
There will be moments to look at each other, express ourselves, feel, play, rest and meet in ways beyond the familiar.
Returning to the body and making room for what is happening now.
Exploring the body, playfulness and other ways of meeting.
Expressing what we feel and opening a space to listen to each other.
Attending to our own experience and that of our partner.
Expanding our capacity to feel and be present.
Exploring sensitivity and intimacy with our own partner.

Intimacy and respect
A shared space in which your intimacy belongs to you. Every encounter is approached with respect and sensitivity towards each person’s process.
All the work is done with your own partner.
You can keep it as private as feels right for you.
The approach honours both your individual process and that of your relationship.
Who is this gathering for?
You do not need to be going through a crisis.
For couples who wish to give themselves the gift of time together.
You can come because you want to deepen your relationship, reclaim spaces that have gradually been lost, explore your intimacy, improve your communication or simply enjoy being together again.
It can also be a space to look honestly at where your relationship is today.
How we support you
No two gatherings are the same, just as no two couples are the same.
Astiko does not approach this work through a rigid programme. Every group is different, and each couple arrives at a different point in their journey.
So, while there is a structure and a direction, the practices are adapted to what is alive in the group and to the needs that emerge during the gathering.
