A gathering with Astiko
Tantra for everyone · In-person gathering
The gathering
There is a force within us that draws us towards life.
It draws us in, ignites us, opens us to pleasure, to connection, to beauty, to another. A force we call Eros, yet one that reaches far beyond sexuality.
When we learn to feel it and inhabit it consciously, desire is no longer simply something seeking satisfaction. It can become energy, presence, creativity, intimacy and expansion.
Tantra invites us not to separate what life has brought together.
Awakening the senses and deepening our sensitivity.
Feeling, breathing and allowing energy to move.
Exploring intimacy without losing ourselves in the other.
Two gatherings, one journey
23–25 April · MADRID
An invitation to awaken life energy, sensitivity and connection with the body.
30 April–2 May · BARCELONA
A space to open ourselves to the sensitivity of the heart, to presence and to deeper intimacy.
You can take part in just one gathering or experience both as a complementary journey, where each experience nourishes and deepens the next.
A journey towards awareness
Desire and freedom. Intimacy and meditation.
Through the lens of Tantra
In this gathering, we will explore the body as a landscape of experience and awareness: awakening the senses, deepening sensitivity, listening to the breath and recognising sexual energy not merely as an impulse, but as a living force that can be felt, held and transformed.
We will enter the realm of desire to discover what happens when we no longer need to rush towards release.
When we can stay.
Feel.
Breathe.
And discover that pleasure can be far more than a sensation: it can become a form of presence.
We will also explore meeting another: eye contact, touch, listening, boundaries, consent, vulnerability and intimacy.
Because truly meeting someone requires more than physical contact.
The Alchemy of Eros
Alchemy is not about changing who we are, but about discovering what can be revealed when we stop living unconsciously.
The sexual fire can burn itself out quickly. Or we can learn to stay close to the fire.
Feel its warmth. Let it illuminate. Let it awaken.
What we will explore
Over this weekend, we will immerse ourselves in an essentially experiential journey through the body, breath, movement, sensitivity, meditation, eye contact and conscious touch.
Listening to the body and allowing energy to move.
Inhabiting the body as a landscape of experience.
Awakening the senses and refining perception.
Exploring pleasure as a form of presence.
Being available to meet another.
Boundaries, consent, vulnerability and intimacy.
Breath · Movement · Sensitivity · Meditation · Eye contact and listening · Conscious touch
Presence and respect
It asks us to be present. To be in our own body. To be available. To feel without running away. To desire without possessing. To surrender without losing ourselves.
Recognising what is present in our experience.
Making room for what we feel and need.
Moving closer without losing our connection to ourselves.
Who this gathering is for
A practice of presence.
From here, sexuality can cease to be solely an act of pleasure, reproduction or release and become a space for conscious connection.
A doorway to a fuller experience of ourselves.
Not to learn new techniques. But to experience differently what already lives within us. Perhaps the real discovery is not having more pleasure. Perhaps it is discovering how much awareness can live within pleasure.
The invitation
A journey from the body to energy.
From energy to connection.
From connection to awareness.
And what happens when the fire of Eros, rather than exhausting us, brings us back to life.
What if your sexual energy were not simply something to experience, but one of your most powerful gateways to awakening?
LED BY
My search brought me to Tantra at the age of 18, when, while studying philosophy and Oriental studies, I came across a book by the mystic Osho and left everything to be close to this master, who taught me to die and yet to be blissfully alive, enjoying life in all its expressions.
Alongside his talks, I had the opportunity to take part in therapy and Tantra groups for eight years, where the work was entirely experiential and understanding was integrated on a physical, emotional and mental level, all of it crowned by meditation.
Gestalt, bioenergetics, breathwork, Ericksonian hypnosis, NLP, Tantra, meditations from many mystical traditions, Jungian work, sex therapy and more were techniques I learned to create the space I want to share: the mind’s absolute presence in the here and now, the relaxation of the heart and trust in what Is.
