Are you on the personal development and self-love journey from the head down into the heart? Are you intrigued by the mysteries of Tantra? Are you hesitant or unsure where to start your exploration because there are so many options to choose from? Are you seeking a secure and nurturing environment among like-minded women without the presence of men to embark on a journey of self-discovery to explore your full potential and optimize your vitality, intimate relationships, and pursuit of your life’s purpose and passion?
Perhaps you have been looking for a safe place to practice putting yourself first while honouring your boundaries and fully receiving. Or maybe you would like to cultivate greater trust, profound connection, renewed passion and deeper intimacy in your life? Maybe you’ve seen some mixed gender tantric workshops that you would love to attend someday but need the safety, reassurance, and encouragement that comes from gathering with women only first.
Then we welcome you to join us for Tantric Empowerment for Women, the first of a transformative series of workshops exclusively designed for people living in female bodies regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, or differently-abledness. In this sacred space, you will have the unique opportunity to delve into the profound teachings of Tantra and engage in diverse practices within a safe and supportive circle of women.
There will be a mixture of theoretical/philosophical teachings as well experiential embodied tantric practices shared to suit absolute beginners from all walks of life. There will be an opportunity to share to ask any questions you’ve always wanted to ask but felt too scared to or didn’t know who to ask. There will also be an opportunity for sharing about your interests and passions when it comes to what you want to be learning and experiencing on your personal growth journey.
Together we will unravel the secrets of Tantra, unveiling its beauty and depth along with a recommended framework and roadmap to guide your future explorations.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT WORKING WITH NADIA
“Nadia has a remarkable talent for holding a safe space which is charged with such divine energy, that I can only describe my lessons with her as Transcendental!”
~ Arwen J., Nelson Bay, NSW Australia (Taoist Tantric Massage & Women’s Sacred Practices)
“Nadia holds a beautiful sacred space, full of wisdom ready to be shared. Her grounded and nurturing nature helped me feel at ease, guiding me to dive deep into my own divine sensuality/sexuality. I now have more wonderful tools for my own inner journey, both for myself and to share with others. Thank you Nadia!”
~ Nathalie A., Alicante, Spain (Private Tantric Sessions)
“Nadia – yesterday was magical. I experienced so soo much Love when you touched and embraced me it shook and touched me to my core. It was so beautiful I cried. I still cry now whenever I think about the experience that we had. To me it was just pure Love and Union.
I wonder if it’s something that you’re meant to receive as a kid from your mother but I never did. Yesterday when I said I felt awakened I meant I felt that something was awakened within me. You opened and roused something within me that was so beautiful and powerful I still am at a loss for words when I try to describe it… I have noticed some big shift in my being, energy, and expression today too… I am sending so much love and gratitude your way.
I feel so lucky to have met you.”
~ Annaki N., Bondi, NSW Australia (Tantric Massage Meetup)
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT WORKING WITH JANA
Thank you so much for the workshop! It provided me with a wealth of insight, wisdom, and down-to-earth approaches to running a session. You included numerous enjoyable tasks, and I genuinely felt a strong connection to the women. Thank you once again. You’re truly awesome!
~Róisín~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)
For me, your Tantra practice has been a beautiful piece of the puzzle. Now, I thoroughly enjoy my body and sensuality, and I would never have thought that “such nonsense” – slowing down, lazing around, enjoying, and indulging – could be so fundamental. I’ve always been quite active and focused on efficiency, so I used to consider these activities a waste of time. But, in reality, the true waste of time was the long period during which I didn’t engage in them. 🙂
~Linda~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)
Slow down, tune into your body. Experience more joy, and satisfaction, but also pleasure and energy in it. Jana knows how to do that.
~Anonymous Client~ (Tantric Workshop for Women)
Conscious touch, support, and love… These are the valuable takeaways from the session that I have integrated into my daily life and relationships. This applies not only to my relationship with my partner but also to the way I interact with other women. It’s challenging to put into words, but my behavior towards other women has undergone a significant transformation. I’ve shifted from competition to compassion, unity, understanding, and support. I now recognize the divine essence within myself and in other women as well. Initially, it felt strange to receive such a massage from another woman, but I was pleasantly surprised by the results. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to every woman.
