- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 14 Jun, 2026 at 10:30 pm (+02:00)
- **Event Description**: Tantra...

What does reading this word trigger in you? Curiosity? Tension? Love? Excitement?

Are you curious and a bit nervous at the same time?
Does it trigger a longing to experience (again) the magic of tantra - in various flavours and colours, at a place where you feel comfortable, around like-minded people?

Please feel welcome to join us at the Tantric Awakening festival!

Tantric Awakening is a small-scale tantra festival where you can explore and experience what tantra can be for you. In a safe and playful way, in the intimate setting of Odessa Amsterdam. At this festival, you will be invited to open up to new experiences.

You will be invited to awaken the full potential within yourself. The potential to feel, to connect, to breathe, to dance, to play, and to love with full awareness.

The Tantric Awakening Festival offers a menu of workshops that may help you to discover what you really want. To discover what fits you and what doesn’t. Find alternatives to patterns and limiting beliefs where you may be stuck, even without knowing. To enjoy your playfulness and curiosity.

Experience relaxing in your own body and connecting with others, who may be longing for the same. Or to simply enjoy.

The Tantric Awakening festival is suitable for all levels, from newbies to experienced tantrica's!


**** The meaning of Tantra – and our vision on Tantra ****
The essence of Tantra is to fully embrace all aspects of life. Behind that simple sentence lies a world of ancient wisdom, passed through from generation to generation, from teacher to pupil. Tantra is about getting wisdom through experience, not through learning in theory.

The classical tantra has its source in three different religions, distinct from these sources by one ideal: it should be open for everyone (not just for monks) and be possible to integrate into your daily life. This is still suitable for us, after many ages!

Typical tantric elements that help us (normal people) to experience life to its full potential are body awareness, meditation, awareness of the energy system (chakras), mantras, and rituals.

These elements can help us to connect deeper to ourselves, to others, and to the whole.

Tantra does not deny, judge, or block anything in ourselves. Anger, sadness, love, vulnerability. All are welcome. We are invited to observe it, to accept it, to enjoy it.

Sometimes, the element of connecting deeper to our body and that of others are being misused, unfortunately. What is called tantra is sometimes far away from its original meaning. This has created misconceptions about tantra, which is not only harmful to the people involved, but also to people who are, guided by misconceptions, and decide not to open up to the potential of tantra.

With tantric awakening, we do not pretend to have all the wisdom about what tantra is and what it is not.

However, we have the intention to be aligned with the essence of tantra, while creating a safe environment for everyone.
We only invite facilitators who are aligned with this essence as well.

We use clear guidelines and agreements.

In this way, we wish to enable you to awaken to the potential of tantra, and to give you the tools to explore more of your tantra, by finding suitable teachers, or, at your choice, to just enjoy what is being offered to you.


*** Location: Odessa Amsterdam ****
The festival will take place at the urban paradise Odessa, with excellent locations for the workshops and relaxation during the breaks. Odessa is a conscious vegan art ship where city and nature are intertwined, a platform for conscious events and communities.

The location, surrounded by (swimming) water, will give an extra juicy vibe to the festival and includes a Spa deck with a sauna. This offers possibilities to enjoy and relax between and after the workshops in all types of weather.


*** Who should attend? ***
- Suitable for singles and couples
- Suitable for all levels
- Safe environment, clear guidelines, clothes will remain on
- Workshops will be given in English (unless everyone is Dutch)


*** Vegan Food ***
Our vegan cook Flora will prepare lunch and dinner. This food is not only healthy and delicious but it is also prepared with love and care and with mostly organic and seasonal ingredients that will support you to enjoy the festival fully.

A vegan food package (2 lunches and 2 dinners) is an optional part of the festival, which gives you the full experience and ability to enjoy and relax during the lunch and dinner breaks.
