Because that is the only way to find inaction: dance to the uttermost\, dance in a frenzy\, dance madly. And if your whole energy is involved in it\, a moment comes when suddenly you see the dance is happening on its own\, there is no effort in it\, it is action without action.‘ –Osho \nImmerse yourself in Osho’s amazing and simple active meditation techniques for the modern world. \nDiscover an alive\, flowing experience of meditation\, through movement\, sound\, expression\, playfulness\, celebration… and silence. \nExplore a range of Osho Meditations\, learning techniques to practise at home\, and find insights into your true self. \nNourish the inner and relax into your being at this retreat in the beautiful Dorset countryside. \nWith Osho video talks in the evenings\, live music and time for sharing. \nThe retreat is perfect for those encountering these meditations for the first time and perfect for those who wish to continue the journey. \n\n\nOSHO Active Meditations® \nOsho has experimented and scrutinised all the approaches of the past and examined their effects on the modern human being. He has responded to their shortcomings by creating a starting point for the hyperactive 21st century mind: OSHO Active Meditations®. Once the agitation of a modern lifetime has started to settle\, “activity” can melt into “passivity”\, a key starting point for of real meditation.\nTo support this next step\, Osho has transformed the ancient “art of listening” into a subtle contemporary methodology: the OSHO Talks. Here words become music\, the listener discovers who is listening\, and the awareness moves from what is being heard to the individual doing the listening. \n\nSome of Osho’s Active Meditations… \nDynamic – Osho’s breakthrough meditation\, intense and enlivening \nNadabrahma – a humming meditation with gentle movement and silence \nKundalini – shake\, dance and be still \nNataraj – dance as a total meditation \n\nFirst you have to learn how to dance\, and you have to put all your energies into dancing. And one day that strange experience happens when suddenly the dancer disappears in the dance and the dance happens without any effort. Then it is inaction. First you have to learn action to go into inaction. That’s what meditation is all about. \nPeople come and ask me why I teach active meditations. Because that is the only way to find inaction: dance to the uttermost\, dance in a frenzy\, dance madly. And if your whole energy is involved in it\, a moment comes when suddenly you see the dance is happening on its own\, there is no effort in it – it is action without action. \nOsho The Secret of Secrets #1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeditation is not against action. It is not that you have to escape from life. It simply teaches you a new way of life: you become the center of a cyclone. Your life goes on\, it goes on more intensely – with more joy\, with more clarity\, more vision\, more creativity… \nOsho From Misery to Enlightenment #2 \nThe Program Includes… \n\nOsho Dynamic\, Kundalini and Evening Meeting meditations with video discourse each day.\nA selection of other Osho Active Meditations\, see descriptions below.\nWorkshops – we call them Playshops! – exploring other techniques that Osho has described\, including from The Book of Secrets. These are techniques you can practise at home and in your day to day activities.\nTime for Sharing.\nLive music for meditation and celebration throughout the weekend section of the retreat.\nEvening Activities like sauna\, singing with live music and videos about Osho and sannyas.\n\n\nA Typical Day… \n07.00 am – Osho Dynamic Meditation \n08.00 am – Breakfast \n09.00 am – Meditation Playshop \n11.30 am – Osho Active Meditation such as Nataraj \n01.00 pm – Lunch \n02.30 pm – Osho Active Meditation such as Nadabrahma \n04.00 pm – Osho Kundalini Meditation \n05.45 pm – Osho video Discourse \n07.00 pm – Dinner \n08.30 pm – Evening Activity \n\nYour facilitators \n\nArchan\, Prabuddho and Nishok guide\, support and encourage participants so that they can dive fully into everything this retreat has to offer\, as meditators and facilitators\, together they have more than a century of experience around Osho and his meditations! \nFully trained\, they have been involved in sharing these meditations at Retreats and Festivals at Leela for the past decade. \n\n\n\nLive Music\nTarisha and friends will add an extra sparkle to some of the meditations with their wonderful live music! \n\n\nTestimonials from participants in our Osho Meditation Retreat \n\nGorgeous meditations – fabulous live music. \n\nI enjoyed the lightness and the playfulness of the facilitation.

The feminine has been silenced\, dismissed\, and devalued. But this is now changing\, and we are part of this change. \nThe womb or womb space\, physical or energetic\, is a powerful emotional and ancestral center. It holds memory. It holds pain. It holds potential. It holds the light of creation. \nThrough conscious connection with our wombs\, we can gently clear inherited patterns\, release emotional residue\, and reconnect with our sacred creative life force. Every time a woman listens to her womb\, she heals a thread of the feminine\, within herself and within the greater web of womanhood. \nWe will gently honour our female lineage\, not by needing everything to be healed or forgiven\, but by meeting what arises with honesty\, compassion\, and respect. \nWe will listen to the stories and beliefs that lives in our wombs and bodies\, releasing what no longer serves\, what is stopping us to be fully be\, and to embrace all our parts\, in an act of love and devotion to ourselves. \nWe don’t just inherit wounds: we also inherit resources\, gifts\, resilience\, and wisdom from our female ancestors. \nBeyond the personal\, honoring the mother line also connects us with the Mother Earth\, the Cosmic Mother\, the universal womb of life. \nWe are not alone\, we are part of all. \n\nBook Your Space HerePowered by Workshop Angel \nHealing with the Elements and the Mother Lineage\nDuring the workshop\, we will work with the elements of nature through movement and rituals as gateways into healing. Each one offers wisdom\, balance\, and support as we honour the lineage and return to wholeness. \nEarth: The Body – The Mother – GroundingWe will deepen our connection with Mother Earth and with our physical body through grounding practices\, body awareness\, and the exploration of womb consciousness. \n\nWater: The Emotions – The Flow – ReleaseWe will move with the water to wash away what is no longer ours to carry\, creating space for softness\, renewal\, and compassion. \n \nAir: The Voice – The Mind – Her Story\nWhat does the womb want to say? We will give voice to the feminine\, reclaiming the right to speak\, express\, and know. \nFire: The Spirit – The Heart – The Sacred Flame\nThe fire of transformation\, passion\, and soul truth. We will re-connect with our inner flame and the Divine Feminine. \nDivine Feminine : Mother Earth\, Mary\, Mary Magdalene and the Rose Medicine\nThese archetypes figures and energies will be guiding and protecting us all the journey. \nWhat to Expect: \n✨ Guided womb meditations and visualizations \n✨ Rituals to honour the feminine lineage \n✨ Dance\, movement and somatic practices \n✨ Healing and nourishing sessions with sacred oils and co-regulation \n✨ Sharing circles in sisterhood \n✨ Creative expression and journaling \n✨ Nature time in beautiful sacred land of Leela\, including the Yoni Garden (a co-creation space for women) \n✨ Delicious\, nourishing vegetarian meals\, herbal teas\, and treats \n✨ Gentle guidance and full permission to honour your own rhythm \nWe will co-create a safe\, non-judgmental space where everything is optional\, and each woman is the sovereign of her own experience. \n\nWho is this weekend for? \nThis space is open to all women\, with or without a physical womb. \nWhether you’ve birthed children\, dreams\, or deep love\, \nwhether this work is new or familiar\, this is for you. \n\nYou may be: \nA woman seeking a deeper connection with your womb and womb consciousness\, or simply feeling curious about what this means for you. \nLonging to strengthen your intuition and inner wisdom\, so you feel clear and strong in yourself. \nFeeling called to return to your body\, your natural rhythms\, and your inner cycles. \nLonging to connect with Nature and Mother Earth. \nCurious about the feminine mysteries and your role in healing the collective. \nDesiring a sacred pause\, a moment to rest\, breathe\, and nourish your spirit. \nWanting to connect with other women\, sharing wisdom and supporting each other \nReady to explore and release what is keeping you from being fully yourself. \nWanting to celebrate who you are and honour the woman you are \n\nThis journey may also support you with: \nReconnecting with your feminine essence and cycles \nAwakening your creativity and passion \nBuilding confidence in your body \nReleasing stored emotional pain \nSupporting your mood and mental wellbeing \nNavigating transitions (peri-menopause\, menopause\, motherhood\, etc.) \nConnecting with the Divine Feminine within \nMeet your Facilitator\nAmiyaAmiya is a sensitive\, intuitive\, and creative woman from Spain who has been connected with the Leela centre since 2013.

I loved your unique combination of healing modalities and learning about different tools I can use in my life\, many of which I’m continuing on with after the course. I also so appreciated your gentle and supportive approach which made me feel welcomed\, valued and at home. You created a safe container in which to express\, be heard and learn from each other. Thank you again and I’m looking forward to more”Caroline \n‘The session with Amiya Pilar gave me the opportunity to have some time for myself and reflection. With the focus of nature\, this gave me time to hear my breathing and stretch with guidance alongside free time to express through dance and how I interpreted the music. I need more of this in my life as the one area I always neglect is myself’ \nHelen\, Occupational Therapist\n‘Thank you so much for a beautiful session\, wow! Definitely was a journey\, thank you for holding the space\, I am truly grateful to have been a part of it. Lots of nourishment came and also quite a bit of tenderness. Today I have to be a lot more gentle with myself\, and coming to realise that body was clearly saying that I need to write more about my journey with my body and dancing. Truly grateful for this is what the universe was confirming me to do next’ \nRose\nLogistics & Preparation \nPilar Amiya Lorenzo and her team will hold this space with deep care and integrity. \nTo support each woman’s experience\, Amiya offers a short pre-workshop call with all participants\, to explore your intentions and any needs you’d like held during the weekend. \nNote: This workshop is a healing space\, not a substitute for professional medical or psychological care.

It’s about remembering your aliveness\, moving from the heart\, and reconnecting with your essential vitality. \nRolando Toro \n\nWhat to Expect \nFriday: After a nourishing meal (locally sourced from Leela’s own grounds!)\, we land together with a grounding Vivencia to drop into our bodies and the group. \nSaturday: A day of lightness\, play\, creativity\, and celebration.

Using the medium of Biodanza\, a series of dance\, movements and exercises that create space for a deep experience within oneself and with others\, each workshop is led as a vivencia\, a space in which words are dropped and the deep wisdom of the body is entered. \nNiraj has been involved in Biodanza since 1997\, leads the teacher training program\, and is also trained in the Osho Humaniversity training. He also has specialisation certificates to teach Biodanza and the Four Elements\, Biodanza in Nature\, Biodanza and Shamanism\, AquaBiodanza\, Biodanza for Children\, Biodanza and Massage\, Contact Education\, The Heart of Transformation\, the Minotaur Project and the Argonaut Mission. He has been involved in teaching Biodanza in 20+ countries. \nMilarepa Burgin\, facilitator \nMy first experience of Biodanza was with Niraj during the Spring Festival at Osho Leela in 2006. That initial vivencia had a deeply profound effect on my life\, something which continues to resonate even now\, and I remember saying to Niraj “if you ever decide to train people in this\, you can count me in”. \nAfter almost 20 years of dancing\, with nearly 15 of those years as a facilitator\, it feels that life has come full-circle as we now welcome a new cohort to Osho Leela to begin a new cycle of this incredible training. Whether you see yourself as a future teacher or simply want to enhance and enrich your own life with greater levels of expression and connection\, the Biodanza facilitator training is\, in my opinion\, unparalleled in it’s depth and breadth and provides each participant with a unique insight into their own life and into the experience of living. \nWe look forward to welcoming you to the dance floor and to a deeper understanding of just what it is to be alive. \n\nWhy Join this Weekend… \nThis is an invitation to: \nReconnect to what matters \nRemember the joy of presence \nFeel fully alive\, nourished\, and part of something real \nWhether you’re looking for an alternative to the holiday chaos\, craving genuine connection\, or just love to dance and celebrate\, this weekend is for you. \n\n\nBiodanza Weekend Workshops:Module 1: October 3 – 5\nA New Beginning: The Dance of Life Returns \nModule 2: October 31 – November 2\nBiodanza & 4 Elements: A Deep Dive \nModule 3: December 12 – 14\nThe Biodanza Christmas Celebration Spectacular \n\nA Note on Presence \n“I have zero interest in running anything where people are free to zone out and disconnect by getting their phone out and becoming distracted from the people and environment surrounding them. Therefore\, anyone choosing to work with me opts in to a total digital detox—devices are handed in at check-in and returned upon departure. If this doesn’t work for you\, please do not book.

The fae and faerie\, nature spirits and spirits of place known as the Genii Locorum. \nSCROLL TO DETAILSWhat Is It About \nWe will start our journey going back through an ancient portal to explore Old Lemuria where the history of The Fae on earth began. You will meet your ancient Fae teacher and start forging a relationship with them and through them with faeries. \nYour primary ally may be a faerie magician\, a faerie healer\, a faerie keeper of the light or guardian of the flame. These are some of the destinies of faerie and The fae. \nThis is a unique weekend\, filled with old magic that is still being practiced to date. \nWelcome to the portals and the realms. \nDuring This Workshop You Will Experience:\n \nJourney to meet your Gate Keeper \nBe attuned to the frequency of portals and the faerie dimensions \nJourney to Old Lemuria where the story began \nLearn how to work with faerie magicians\, healers and more \nLearn the ancient Faerie Healing ways \nExperience shamanic ceremonies to establish a strong connection \nLearn shamanic drumming to assist you in changing your resonance and enable a deeper journey \nWho Is This For ….\n \nAnyone curious enough to explore other realms and dimensions \nAnyone seeking new effective methods for healing \nAnyone wanting to experience and embody the love of faerie. \nWhat Is Shamanism \nShamanism is a method of healing ourselves\, our loved ones\, our communities\, our environment and our world. \nIn these turbulent times\, shamanism is offering us ancient methods of healing and of celebrating spiritual authority\, sovereignty and self-empowerment. \nThis workshop is open to beginners as well as those wishing to deepen their shamanic practice. \n‘A shaman is one who is able to traverse the shamanic terrain bringing back knowledge\, wisdom and healing.’ Zohar \n Introducing Zohar Bahir \nZohar began her unique journey more than 30 years ago and has continued to develop her skills to this day. In 2014\, following a dream career as an airline pilot\, she decided to explore shamanic healing and travelled to the Amazon where she lived with the Shipibo tribe for several months. \nDuring this time\, she underwent an advanced and intense initiation with a Shipibo maestro curandero\, a master healer. \nAfter returning to the UK with newfound inspiration\, she completed a 3-year course in Classical Shamanism and has been working as a shamanic practitioner ever since. \nWhen it comes to teaching Zohar believes in an experiential approach and her workshops reflect this methodology. \n\nI’ve had the great pleasure of receiving shamanic teaching and healing from Zohar several times over the years. \nHaving worked with other\npractitioners\, Zohar is someone who truly embodies the qualities and\nskills but most importantly the authenticity of a true healer. \nWith an admirable\, interesting life story\, Zohar is relatable in so many ways yet has the aura of a wise and ancient elder who has been doing the work for thousands of years. \nHer ability to hold space is second to none as her calming presence puts you at ease while her strong spirit inspires courage and confidence. \nIn a community saturated with ‘healers’\, I am so thankful to have been guided by her and her work has helped shift the course of my life in the greatest of ways. \nWith her having so much to\nshare and there being so much to learn from\, she is not only a healer\nbut also a great teacher and guide. \nThe real deal. \nCharlie S.\nI am an 83 years old woman who has spent most of my life dealing with\nthe severe trauma that lies in my family from centuries ago.When I\nmoved from Cornwall to Sussex 5 years ago\, I was delighted to learn\nthat a shaman lives next door. Her name is Zohar Bahir and I\nimmediately arranged to take shamanic journeys with her\, something I had wanted to do all my life. \nWhat transpired from those profound journeys and the integration process I was instructed to carry out at the end\, proved to be the culmination of all the therapeutic work\, mainly Jungian and body work\, that I’ve done during my long life. \nI have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone with an interest in shamanic teaching. \nZohar is experienced\, conscientious and trustworthy and works to the deepest levels of understanding. \nSarah I.\nI was very fortunate to embark on numerous shamanic workshops\ntaught by Zohar. \nZohar explains the theory and practices very clearly in her workshops and in an intriguing way that I was able to retain the\ninformation and put it into practice. \nZohar makes her workshops an\namazing and insightful experience. \nShe is a fantastic teacher who\nbrings her vast experience and inspiration to every workshop and in\naddition\, she is understanding\, patient and compassionate. \nNielBook Your Place Here!Powered by Workshop Angel \n\nDetails\nStart: February 12th @ 6:00pm (We encourage you to arrive at 5pm so you’ve time to settle in.

It’s about remembering your aliveness\, moving from the heart\, and reconnecting with your essential vitality. \nRolando Toro \n\nWho is this for … \n✔️ Curious newcomers ready to taste the joy and depth of Biodanza \n✔️ Past students and graduates of Dorset School of Biodanza or other schools looking to reconnect \n✔️ Teachers seeking inspiration and community \n✔️ Lovers of movement\, music\, and embodied connection \n✔️ Supporters of the next generation of Biodanza facilitators \n\n\n\nWhat to Expect \nFriday: After a nourishing meal (locally sourced from Leela’s own grounds!)\, we land together with a grounding Vivencia to drop into our bodies and the group. \nSaturday: A day of lightness\, play\, creativity\, and celebration. Expect festive joy\, community dancing\, laughter\, and heartfelt togetherness. \nSaturday Evening: potential sauna (£5/10 per person) or collaboration with other groups using Leela the same weekend. Ceremonial bonfire/ritual? \nSunday: We rise into the line of Transcendence\, dancing toward feelings of unconditional love\, Oneness\, and deep spiritual connection\, the sacred essence of the season. \nFinal integration Vivencia & sharing circle to honour and digest the journey\, leaving you nourished in body\, heart\, and soul. \n\nThe Many Dimensions of Touch \nTouch can be many things. It can be reassuring\, celebratory\, empathic\, consoling\, loving\, erotic\, tender\, sensitive\, life-saving\, affectionate\, stimulating\, exciting\, harmonious\, inclusive\, calming — and often a beautiful combination of several at once. \nIn Biodanza\, we honour the full spectrum of these qualities. We create a space where touch is respectful\, intentional\, heart-led\, and deeply healing. \n\n\n\nWhat We Will Explore … \nThroughout the weekend\, we will exchange touch and conscious contact: \n\nwith ourselves\nwith a partner\nin small groups\nand as a collective field\n\nSpecific areas of the body we will honour include:\n\nthe hands\, hair\, face\, back\, feet\, belly\, chest\, arms\, and the full body as an integrated system.\n \nYou will also learn the meaning of differentiated and undifferentiated eros\, and have the opportunity to experience these concepts directly through guided encounters. \nThe focus will be on the lines of vivencia of:\nAffectivity\, Sexuality\, and Transcendence rather than Vitality or Creativity. \nThis workshop offers a full-body\, holistic reset of your nervous system\, leaving you feeling nurtured\, connected\, included\, loved\, and deeply refreshed. \n\n\nNiraj Skilbeck\, facilitator \nNiraj co-leads the Dorset School of Biodanza alongside Milarepa Burgin\, graduate of the first cycle of the training from 2008-2011 and is highly skilled at introducing people to the profound depths biodanza has to offer\, such as sensitivity\, sensuality\, touch\, affection and authentic expression. Using the medium of Biodanza\, a series of dance\, movements and exercises that create space for a deep experience within oneself and with others\, each workshop is led as a vivencia\, a space in which words are dropped and the deep wisdom of the body is entered. \nNiraj has been involved in Biodanza since 1997\, leads the teacher training program\, and is also trained in the Osho Humaniversity training. He also has specialisation certificates to teach Biodanza and the Four Elements\, Biodanza in Nature\, Biodanza and Shamanism\, AquaBiodanza\, Biodanza for Children\, Biodanza and Massage\, Contact Education\, The Heart of Transformation\, the Minotaur Project and the Argonaut Mission. He has been involved in teaching Biodanza in 20+ countries. \nMilarepa Burgin\, facilitator \nMy first experience of Biodanza was with Niraj during the Spring Festival at Osho Leela in 2006. That initial vivencia had a deeply profound effect on my life\, something which continues to resonate even now\, and I remember saying to Niraj “if you ever decide to train people in this\, you can count me in”. \nAfter almost 20 years of dancing\, with nearly 15 of those years as a facilitator\, it feels that life has come full-circle as we now welcome a new cohort to Osho Leela to begin a new cycle of this incredible training. Whether you see yourself as a future teacher or simply want to enhance and enrich your own life with greater levels of expression and connection\, the Biodanza facilitator training is\, in my opinion\, unparalleled in it’s depth and breadth and provides each participant with a unique insight into their own life and into the experience of living. \nWe look forward to welcoming you to the dance floor and to a deeper understanding of just what it is to be alive. \n\nWhy This Workshop Matters \nMany people in the modern world live with a deficit of healthy human contact. Loneliness and isolation have become widespread\, often leading to depression and other emotional imbalances. At the same time\, cultural fears and confusion around touch have grown — distancing us from one of the most fundamental sources of human regulation and connection. \nBiodanza offers a powerful antidote. Through guided\, respectful encounters\, it supports the rehabilitation of our capacity to give and receive nourishing touch. It even has the potential to reach early developmental layers\, allowing new imprinting to occur when gentle regression and deep safety are present. \n\n\n\nA Note on Presence \n‘It’s not news to anyone that mobile phones are proliferating throughout all the worlds public spaces\, and not in a good way. Almost everywhere you go\, multiple people are seduced from the present moment by the hyper addictive nature of an ever present internet connection. I have decided to make a stand against this and make my weekends an opportunity for a 2 day digital detox to spare us all from distraction and over stimulation.

He guides participants into deeper embodiment through simple movement\, practical boundary work and relational exercises that build trust and self-awareness. His teaching style is earthy\, direct and supportive\, making inner work feel accessible\, real and alive.More about Khalis ....\nIn the mid 80’s Khalis left Glasgow depressed and possibly on his way to being an alcoholic. He was looking to find happiness out there in the big wide horizon. Travelling the world\, he arrived in California and bumped into the world of Osho and meditation. \n‘The answer wasn’t out there\, it was in there.’ \nThe ever-evolving discovery of the simple process of sitting and focusing on breathing brought him a sense of wonder\, calm and empowerment. He didn’t need alcohol\, money or women to feel valued. \nLooking inside at all his supposed imperfections and mind f*cks he found a long and winding road towards acceptance. \nHe has been meditating (also active meditations involving moving his body and using his voice) for over 30 years and he still gets stressed and anxious\, BUT through meditation techniques he has the tools that help navigate his life in a healthy way. Meditation is the foundation on which he is built and he likes to share this passion with other people. \nKimayaEmbody & Energy GuideKimaya blends grounded movement\, breathwork and intuitive channeling to support people in reconnecting with their natural presence. She reads the group field with sensitivity and brings in gentle yet powerful transmissions that help participants realign with their authentic frequency. Her approach is warm\, playful and deeply embodied\, creating a space where people feel safe to explore\, soften and open.More about Kimaya ....\nKimaya is a space holder\, guide\, and facilitator with over 25 years of experience in energy work\, meditation\, and embodied transformation. Her journey began with Reiki and yoga\, but a deeper call led her into emotional and energetic exploration through many practices such as Osho Active Meditations\, Vipassana\, Bodywork\, Mystic Rose\, darkness retreats. \nHer path hasn’t been linear. it’s been lived\, felt\, and fiercely chosen. From years of self-inquiry and silence to moments of raw emotional release and deep embodiment\, Kimaya has walked the terrain she now supports others to move through. \nIn 2015\, a five-day Vision Quest brought her into a prolonged period of silence that changed the rhythm of her life\, and continued to shape her presence and the spaces she holds. \nKimaya’s approach is holistic\, intuitive\, and grounded in the body. She offers space to move\, breathe\, feel\, release\, and invites people to come home to themselves\, with honesty\, humour\, and the courage to meet what’s real. \n‘In the presence of silence\, the gifts unfold.’ \nWhat this weekend is about …\n \nThis workshop guides you through a natural journey: \nBody: Move what’s stuck \nEmotions: Experiencing emotional release \nMind: Step out of the mental loop \nStillness: Find that place of inner peace and clarity \nNot by forcing\, but by arriving there through breath\, movement\, release\, connection and awareness. \n‘Khalis’s jokes and Kimaya’s presence\, a recipe for success.’ \nWho is this for…\n\nThis workshop is for anyone who wants to feel more grounded\, alive and connected\, both inside themselves and with others. \nIt’s especially supportive if you want to: \n\nFeel calmer and more centred in your body\nStrengthen healthy\, embodied boundaries\nBuild confidence in how you relate and communicate\nExplore energy awareness in a down-to-earth way\nRelease stress\, tension or emotional overwhelm\nEnjoy genuine connection\, playfulness and shared laughter\nPractise presence with others in a safe\, honest environment\nReset your energy and reconnect with a clear sense of direction\n\nNo experience is needed\, just curiosity\, willingness and the desire to show up as you are. \nIf you feel called\, you’re welcome. \n‘A no-nonsense team who know how to reach a person and flip switches’‘ \nThe benefits of this retreat… \n✔️ Learn to move your energy with active meditations \n✔️ Improves energy flow and vitality throughout the body \n✔️ Brings you in connection with yourself and your the body \n✔️ Understanding and harmonizing your energy centres \n✔️ Releases and eases stuck emotions\, tension and stress \n✔️ Becoming aware of your patterns and beliefs \n✔️ Inspires you to built healthy patterns \n‘The meditations took me deeper than anything I’ve done before.’ \nScroll down to Payment details\n\n‘The meditation took me to a place no other meditation has take me to.  I associate this to the process we went through the length of daily meditation and variety of techniques used.\n\nI am now  in a different place to where I was when I arrived and exactly where I hoped to be. \n\n\nI have clarity\, peace and skills to return to peace quickly as soon as a challenge that disrupts the peace present. \n\nI’m hopeful this effect of this immersion into meditation  workshop willnot dissipate and be forgotten as it feels like it’s been fully integrated and is a part of me now\, as you made it so simple and easy to use in everyday life.   \n\nThank you both for these peaceful moments for your skills and knowledge and dedication to your sharing of these  to support others.’\nBeverly Strachan\, Wales‘The weekend was awesome and truly inspiring for me.

During this weekend\, we focus on laying the foundations that support the work ahead\, preparing the nervous system\, the body\, and the psyche with care and intention. \nYou will be guided through grounding practices\, emotional safety\, connection\, and embodied exploration. This weekend offers a first sense of what it means to walk a path many women have stepped away from through fear or conditioning\, a path that reconnects truth\, sensuality\, intuition\, and belonging. \nTogether\, we attune to the body\, build sisterhood\, and learn integration tools that support life beyond the workshop space. We explore the symbolic return to the “Garden”\, as the woman who listens to her own knowing and who can meet what was once forbidden with curiosity and choice. \nThis weekend stands complete in itself and also serves as preparation for the year-long journey that follows. It offers space to feel resourced\, connected\, and steady\, and to sense whether continuing along The Forbidden Path feels aligned for you. \n\n\nBook Now!\nOver the course of the weekend\, the work unfolds slowly and intentionally. Each element supports the body and nervous system while inviting honest self-contact and connection with others. \nWe will: \n\n– Establish nervous system safety and grounding\n– Explore the Forbidden Path through gentle embodiment\n– Build connection and relational trust\n– Introduce integration tools for between workshops\n– Practice staying embodied outside the workshop space\n– Map what has been “forbidden” in your body and lineage\n– Create the beginnings of personal and group rituals\n– Sense whether this deeper path is calling you\n\n\n‘I arrived feeling a bit tired and needing nourishment.

It is neither indulgence nor repression. It is walking on a tightrope. It is one of the greatest of balances. It is not as easy as it appears. It needs very delicate awareness. It is a great harmony” – Osho \nTantra is about love. Tantra embraces life in all its aspects. Tantra loves the human being\, the man\, the woman\, YOU. Through this acceptance\, celebration and love can unfold in every detail of your daily life.\n \n\n\nTantra takes you to live in a higher state of consciousness\, transforming a mechanical life into a vital life experience\, full of joy and expansion as well as grounding and presence. \n\n\nThe Leela Tantra Experience has now evolved into the Life Tantra Experience. \nThis shift reflects the essence of the journey: living life orgasmically and embracing all its flavours. \nRanjana and Friends are delighted to announce that enrolment is now open for March 2026. \nWhat are we offering?\nThere is a wide variety of tools & methods we are using in these workshops: \n* Tantra Meditation\, Ritual & Ancient Wisdom\n* Healing & Heart Opening\n* Move beyond the Mind into Authentic Relating\n* Breathwork\n* Massage and Conscious Touch\n* Dance & Movement\n* Sharing Circles & Conscious Communication\n* Awakening your Senses & Body Painting\n* Connection with Nature \nBy embracing tantra as your lifestyle\, you will get:\n\nMore Aliveness & Vitality\nDeeper Understanding of your Body and Energy Flow\nTrust in your Instincts & Intuition to Make Conscious Decisions\nIncreased Sensitivity\nEnhanced Natural Wildness & Creativity\nKnowledge about Ancestral Tantra Wisdom\nIntegrated Meditations\, Rituals and Tantra Method in your Daily Life\nA Balance of Body\, Mind & Emotions\nA Fresh Imprint in your Somatic Memory\nA Higher Quality of Life\, Embracing its Simplicity and the many Flavors\nMore Fulfillment in your Sexuality through Presence & Love\nA Coming Back Home to Nature and your Natural Self\nNourishing Connections\, and Spiritual Intimacy between you and your Friends or Partners.\nExperience what it means to Living Orgasmically\n\nLife Tantra Experience – Training Level 1 Workshop Dates:\n\n\nMarch 20 – 22: Module I “The Tantra Map” Cosmic Blueprint for Living Fully\nApril 17 – 19: Module II\, “The Tantric Vision of the Body and the Senses”\nMay 22 – 24: Module III “She and He are One” The Sun and Moon within\nJune 26 – 28: Module IV\, “Devotional Tantra” – Union\, Love & Meditation\n\nPlease note – This is not a facilitator training. It is an experiential program; a training designed for those who choose to embody transformation and tantra awakening as a lifestyle. You can also spread the cost with a payment plan. \n\n  \n‘It was really helpful to learn more about circulating energy through the chakras and to get precise guidance.’ Aurora \nModule I\, “The Tantra Map”\, Your Cosmic Blueprint for Living Fully \nMarch 20 – 22\, 2026 \nAn ancient method to deeply understand the energies inside ourselves and in relation to others. This is a tantric journey into the chakras\, exploring the dynamic and receptive polarities within. Through unblocking and reconnecting each chakra the energy can flow more freely inward and upward\, creating a circle of love between the centres. With this flow\, we can rejoice in life in all its variety. \n\nDive deeper into your own being\, and the energy system in Tantra\nAwaken your dormant life energy \nExpand your energy and consciousness \nUnblock and open your chakras from the root to the crown\nGround yourself in your roots and your own energy\nCreate a nourishing\, fulfilling circle of union between the dynamic & receptive energies inside of you\nLearn how simple it is to be spontaneous and sensual\, when the flow of your life energy is moving upward and downward in a harmonic dance\nCreate a better understanding of the unique sexuality of women and men\, bringing love and spirituality to your love making\nImprove your breathing so you can absorb the juice of life\, more life – less fear\nIncrease your awareness of your nervous and endocrine systems\, improving your health and vitality\nCreate an orgasmic lifestyle through blossoming each chakra and the 5 elements within\n\nModule II\, “The Tantric Vision of the Body and the Senses” \nApril 17 – 19\, 2026 \nIn Tantra the body is viewed as our temple and the senses are the doorways to enter within. Through this experience the nervous system is relaxing and the energy can move softly. We learn how to deeply listen to our body and become more sensitive\, expanding our physical\, vital and etheric energy. Being present in the senses and the body stops the mental narrative\, and returns us to the simple and natural Being. By awakening cellular memory through the senses and body awareness\, life is embraced in joy and gratitude. \n\nRediscover the wisdom of your own body\, including physical\, etheric\, emotional\, mental\, and mystic energetic fields\nUnlock your true energetic potential\nRecognise your body as a Temple; earth my body\, water my blood\, air my breath and fire my spirit\nHonor desire and passion \nLearn the 8 levels of consciousness in tantra\, from senses to superconsciousness \nNourish your skin and soul through loving massage and gentle touch\nOpen your senses and absorb the natural and innocent beauty around\nHeal insecurities and shame relating to your body and self-perception \nCreate safety to give and receive appreciation\, and learn how to see yourself and others through the heart\nFeel confident in your own temple\, means start feeling more safe and confident in your body\nIntegrate micro-practices for your daily life\, which supports you to be more and more present\nExperience an ecstatic level of consciousness through body\, senses and soul \nLearn how to create a Sacred Temple for lovemaking\nSee the other human being as a Temple\, a doorway to Mahamudra; the Great Gesture with existence\n\nModule III\, “She and He are One” – The Sun and Moon within \nMay 22 – 24\, 2026 \nWe are discovering and exploring the integration of the inner masculine and feminine in a playful way. Tantra states that each woman carries an internal masculine\, and each man an internal feminine. In ancient tantric teachings this is referred to as ‘Ardhanarishvara’. Science confirms what tantra discovered millennia ago\, that we have 46 chromosomes\, 23 come from the mother\, and 23 from the father. This dance of bipolarity exists in every human being and in nature\, such as the sun and the moon\, day and night\, winter and summer. This module will take you from duality to unity. \n\nBalance female and male polarities within \nHarmonise your energies of action and stillness\nIf you are a woman\, you will discover and integrate your inner masculinity\nIf you are a man\, you will discover and integrate your inner femininity\nGo beyond the duality of mind\, and become one\nTransform male and female limited conditioning\, to the true male and female essential qualities\nFeel empathy and understanding in your relationships \nLearn how to rise in love instead of “falling in love”\nLive accordingly to the rhythm of the moon (female energy)\nLive inspired by the sun cycles (male energies)\nExperience the vast inner sky. No sun\, no moon\, rejoicing with the first morning\, and the first evening star\, timeless union\n\nModule IV\, “Devotional Tantra” – Union\, Love & Meditation \nJune 26 – 28\, 2026 \nConscious sexuality\, opening to Intimacy and Meditation as a doorway to Mahamudra\, the great orgasm with the universe. In a loving and sincere way we are creating a safe space\, allowing playfulness and trust to grow and return to the source of being. From here we expand our energy & consciousness to fully connect with ourselves and others in joy and presence. \n\nLearn to share your energy with respect and totality\nBring the quality of meditation and presence into sexuality\nHeal emotional wounds which prevent us to connect with ourselves and others\nDecrease insecurities\, shame\, and stress relating to sexuality and intimacy\nStart feeling more safe and authentic when you connect with others\nTrust in your sensitivity & intuition\, and allow yourself to be vulnerable\nIncrease self-awareness and intimacy with yourself\nShare love and intimacy with partners\, friends\, and family\nExperience more honest\, mature love\, and fulfilling relationships\nSee how much fun and expansion you will experience when you embrace meditations in your daily life.\nMeditation and love are the doorway to your being\n\nWhat participants say:\n\nIt was beautiful. The sessions were really lovely\, very gentle. We did some creativity workshops as well as healing\, breathing exercises and chakra meditations. Tantra in the West has a really strong s*xual flavour and it’s not really about that. \nDimitri\nIt’s definitely an in-depth exploration and a journey\, which you go on with a group\, so it’s a beautiful container to grow in over time. It was really helpful to learn more about circulating energy through the chakras and to get precise guidance. It felt really expansive and exciting\, and a very interesting way to play with energy. It was a very gentle\, subtle and sweet learning experience. \nAurora\nOne of the things I have loved most about this experience is having the old school tantra\, rituals\, devotion\, working with energy\, breathwork and intention.  this is really meaningful for me because it is hard to find that in England in my experience as there is a lot of neo tantra so it is lovely to have something that the richeness and depth of ancient tradition and wisdom. I also want to share how beautiful it was for me to have Maite singing with her guitar to support us in song. There is something very special about singing in community and to be in devotion through music and song so i’ve really enjoye that she brought her gifts. I’ve had a lovely experience. \nHarmony Isgolde\nIt has been a beautiful four module experience for me\, especially to do this with my beloved; to look at the shadows and the connection between us and how to deepen that\, and also the shadows within myself between the feminine and the masculine has been really great to explore. The whole experience has been really enlightening and brings beauty and joy to the heart. \nPremesh\nI have just completed the LTE and I am so full of love\, I feel amazing. It is such a safe\, gentle space that has been held here. This last 5 months there have been beautiful connections\, beautiful friendships… I highly recommend this to anybody. \nCressida\nI have had a really deep\, meaningful and spiritual journey into myself that has helped me to understand me and others and to open my heart to everyone. \nPrem TuriyaMeet the Team\nRanjanaLead FacilitatorRanjana A.

They truly are uncannily more than the sum of their parts and some of the deepest\, most profound connections in the line of Transcendence can and do happen with regularity. \nWe shall explore themes of renewal and rebirth\, fecundity and fertility\, change\, awakening\, the celebration and honouring of natural cycles\, harmony\, growth and the return of Life! \nThis is a weekend for experienced dancers and beginners alike and will feature four full length vivencias\, two each from Niraj and Mila plus a Saturday evening happening to be decided. \nYou are warmly welcome to join us to dance your way through this transformative time and spring to life the Biodanza way! \n\nWhat is Biodanza \nBiodanza is a system of human integration\, emotional development\, and renewal through music\, dance\, and authentic connections. \nDeveloped by Rolando Toro in the 1960s. \nBiodanza encourages a joyful\, expressive way of living that enhances well-being and deepens relationships with oneself and others. \nThis is not about performance. It’s about remembering your aliveness\, moving from the heart\, and reconnecting with your essential vitality. \nRolando Toro \n\nWho is this for … \n✔️ Curious newcomers ready to taste the joy and depth of Biodanza \n✔️ Past students and graduates of Dorset School of Biodanza or other schools looking to reconnect \n✔️ Teachers seeking inspiration and community \n✔️ Lovers of movement\, music\, and embodied connection \n✔️ Supporters of the next generation of Biodanza facilitators \n\n\n\nWhat to Expect \nFriday: We start the process of creating a group with a delicious communal meal from the Leela kitchen followed by our first dance session (vivencia) to land\, arrive in our bodies\, decompress from our journey and enter into heartfelt connection with our companions for the weekend\, then a phone free early night! \nSaturday: Yoga\, breakfast\, Coffee Shop\, a potential nature walk\, a Spring themed vivencias\, lunch\, a rest break followed by a second session of the day immediately prior to dinner. \nSaturday Evening: potential sauna (£5/10 per person) or collaboration with other groups using Leela the same weekend. Ceremonial bonfire/ritual? \nSunday: As for Saturday\, with hopefully an outdoor session\, weather permitting \nFinal integration Vivencia & sharing circle to put our experiences into words and create even greater intimacy as we close our deepest dive into the Energies of the season \nBook here!Powered by Workshop Angel \n\nWhat We Will Explore … \nThroughout the weekend\, we will explore themes of: \n\nrenovation and renewal\nfertility and fecundity\ndark/light and life/spirit\nchanging of the seasons\n\nSpecific exercises from the Biodanza playbook will include: \nDances of the Earth\, Air\, Sun\, Horse\, Rebirth\, 4 Elements Integration and many\, many more! \nThe focus this time will be on all the lines of vivencia\, namely:\nAffectivity\, Sexuality\, Vitality\, Creativity and Transcendence \nThis workshop offers a full-body\, holistic reset of your nervous system\, leaving you feeling revitalised\, renewed\, integrated\, expressed and deeply refreshed. \n\nNiraj Skilbeck\, facilitator \nNiraj co-leads the Dorset School of Biodanza alongside Milarepa Burgin\, graduate of the first cycle of the training from 2008-2011 and is highly skilled at introducing people to the profound depths biodanza has to offer\, such as sensitivity\, sensuality\, touch\, affection and authentic expression. Using the medium of Biodanza\, a series of dance\, movements and exercises that create space for a deep experience within oneself and with others\, each workshop is led as a vivencia\, a space in which words are dropped and the deep wisdom of the body is entered. \nNiraj has been involved in Biodanza since 1997\, leads the teacher training program\, and is also trained in the Osho Humaniversity training. He also has specialisation certificates to teach Biodanza and the Four Elements\, Biodanza in Nature\, Biodanza and Shamanism\, AquaBiodanza\, Biodanza for Children\, Biodanza and Massage\, Contact Education\, The Heart of Transformation\, the Minotaur Project and the Argonaut Mission. He has been involved in teaching Biodanza in 20+ countries. \nMilarepa Burgin\, facilitator \nMy first experience of Biodanza was with Niraj during the Spring Festival at Osho Leela in 2006. That initial vivencia had a deeply profound effect on my life\, something which continues to resonate even now\, and I remember saying to Niraj “if you ever decide to train people in this\, you can count me in”. \nAfter almost 20 years of dancing\, with nearly 15 of those years as a facilitator\, it feels that life has come full-circle as we now welcome a new cohort to Osho Leela to begin a new cycle of this incredible training. Whether you see yourself as a future teacher or simply want to enhance and enrich your own life with greater levels of expression and connection\, the Biodanza facilitator training is\, in my opinion\, unparalleled in it’s depth and breadth and provides each participant with a unique insight into their own life and into the experience of living. \nWe look forward to welcoming you to the dance floor and to a deeper understanding of just what it is to be alive. \n\nWhy This Workshop Matters \nOur ancestors celebrated and revered this time of year (and many others!) much more than we do today. Modern western humans have lost touch with our connection to the natural world\, the seasons\, to ritual and the eternal cycles by which all living things are governed\, and we call it progress! It’s not. It’s a fundamental regression from knowing and being in our rightful place in the inextricably linked web of life on Earth. \nHere\, we have the opportunity to recover some of that essential lost ground and feel ourselves as instinctual\, bodily beings again\, rather than thinking machines ever more at sea in a virtual world starved of meaning\, true earthly\, physical/emotional connection to the land\, the elements and each other. \n\n\n\nA Note on Presence \n‘It’s not news to anyone that mobile phones are proliferating throughout all the world’s public spaces\, and not in a good way. Almost everywhere you go\, multiple people are seduced from the present moment by the hyper addictive nature of an ever present internet connection. I have decided to make a stand against this and make my weekends an opportunity for a 2 day digital detox to spare us all from distraction and over stimulation. This means handing in your device on arrival till the Sunday afternoon finish. This measure has proved wildly popular so far\, with many people articulating astonishment at the difference it makes to be without it. It also serves to further the intent of the weekend\, which is to enhance interpersonal connection both on and off the dancefloor. \nA 24hr Emergency Contact number will be provided to all participants in the week before arrival to give to your loved ones.Exceptions must be applied for in advance to Niraj by email to biodanzaniraj@gmail.comThere will be no discussions about this on the day. Please be clear what you are signing up for in advance of making your payment.Many thanks for your cooperation and understanding.‘ \n— Niraj \nBook here!Powered by Workshop Angel \n\nDetails \n\n\n\n——————————- \nBiodanza Weekends\n \nStart weekend: Friday March 20th @ (Arrive from 5pm on the Friday to settle in\, dinner is at 7pm\, the training commences at 8.15pm) \nEnd: Sunday March 22nd @ 5:00pm \n\n\nPrice weekend: £310 (includes workshop & food)\n \nEarly bird till February 27th: £280 \nYou can also pay in instalments – by paying a 20% deposit\, followed by equal monthly payments that will complete before the start of the workshop. \n——————————– \nAccommodation for 2 nights:\nOwn campervan plus hook up if needed £5-£25\nFemale Deluxe Dorm £50\nMale Deluxe Dorm £50\nRegular Private Room £100\nPremium Private Room £140\nMobile Back Room £100\nPine Cabin Regular Room £110\nDouble Pod £120\nSmall Private Room £60\nSharing another Participants accommodation £0 \n\n\n\n\nCheck out our accommodationBook here!Powered by Workshop Angel URL:https://osholeela.uk/event/biodanza-and-the-energies-of-spring/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://osholeela.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/biodanza-spring-new.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260323T170000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260327T130000 DTSTAMP:20260530T200145 CREATED:20260209T131958Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260210T191908Z UID:48140-1774285200-1774616400@osholeela.uk SUMMARY:Festival Prep DESCRIPTION:Festival Prep Week!\nAn opportunity to come and support us to get ‘Festival ready’ this Spring time at no cost & enjoy all that Leela offers!\nMonday 23rd – Friday 27th March 2026\nBuilding the Container \nThis is a focused festival preparation week\, dedicated to setting up structures\, marquees\, spaces\, and systems that will hold our first major gatherings of the year. \nThe emphasis is on teamwork\, clear communication\, and practical skills.

Although the bodywork method is deep the therapist is in communication and is continuously adjusting the pressure to what you feel comfortable with. The sessions help me integrate everything that is happening in my body. They help me to experience and let go of emotions\, in a way that new insights and trauma release happens.’ \nRick Schifferstein\, Associate Professor\, USA \n\nBook Training and Accommodation Here!An invitation From Satyarthi\nCreator of the M.E.R. technique and trainer \nWelcome to Myofascial Energetic Release Training\, the culmination of nearly 50 years of my life spent learning\, practicing and teaching deep bodywork to over 10\,000 students. \nA journey which began when I was a professional dancer in San Francisco. The daily training was intense\, and the physical demands took a huge toll on my body\, leaving my muscles tight\, sore\, and aching. It was during this time that I discovered the profound relief and release that bodywork brought me from my rigorous training schedule. \nMy first exploration into the world of bodywork began by learning and practicing massage in 1970. This experience ignited my passion and by 1971 I had trained in postural integration and started giving regular sessions. It was becoming clear to me by this point that bodywork was my true calling and would become my life’s work. \nThe “Co-creation” of the ‘Rebalancing Bodywork Approach’ \nDrawing from the vast knowledge I had gained over many years of studying human anatomy and exploring diverse healing schools\, modalities\, and bodywork techniques\, I co-created the renowned system of bodywork called Rebalancing. This integrates various approaches and has earned international recognition. \nThe Trainers \nKetu BoThe MER training in Scandinavia takes place in Osho Risk\, which is a beautiful therapy center in Brædstrup in Denmark. They offer accommodation during the training. \nKetu Bø Ketu first trained as a therapist with Veeresh Yuson in the Osho Humaniversity in the Netherlands\, specializing in bodywork\, emotional expression\, dance and movement. As a staff member he led workshops in the Humaniversity as well as internationally for many years. After studying Postural Integration body-psychotherapy he trained with Satyarthi Peloquin to become a MER practitioner. Next to having his own therapy practice in the Netherlands he is now leading the MER training in Scandinavia with Ulla Thordal. He graduated as a PAS (Postural Alignment Specialist) in the Egoscue Method and is a NARM (Neuro Affective Relational Model) practitioner. He teaches group-dynamics and character-styles at Bodymind\, the leading institute for body-oriented psychotherapy in the Netherlands. Ketu is passionate about his work and has a profound interest in the connection between mind\, body and soul. He draws from 30 years of experience as a group leader\, meditator\, bodyworker\, and therapist and meets people with warmth\, curiosity and humor. By keeping his pulse on the latest research into fascia\, the autonomic nervous system and the connection between them he keeps the MER training in Denmark up-to-date on what is happening in the world of bodywork. “Once you learn to ground in your body and to trust what you are feeling and experiencing there your life will take on a different quality and you will learn to live in the here-and-now\, rather than being stuck in old patterns and traumas”.Ulla ThordalUlla is a MER certified practitioner and the organizer of the training in Scandinavia. Ulla is living and working in Denmark. She is always looking for the good in people\, finding the reason why things are the way they are. Her curious nature and desire to understand people really defines her both as a private person and as a body therapist. She is married to Brian since 2002 and has 4 children. Ulla works full Cme in her private pracCce in Denmark and has been a bodyworker since 2006. She loves meeCng different people during her day\, and takes her Cme to meet every one of her clients individually and give them what they need. She started out as a Cranio-Sacral Therapist and pracCced cranio-sacral therapy for many years. In 2011 she started exploring the path of tantra with her husband and started to incorporate tantra into her work with people. AMer meeCng Satyarthi Peloquin\, she decided to learn this work from him. Already fascinated by the body\, she could sense the healing potenCal of working with the fascia and the nervous system with both adults as well as kids. Feeling like a kid in a candy store she studied with and assisted Satyarthi in workshops in Poland\, Greece\, France and the Netherlands. Now MER has become the main part of her work in her pracCce and she is now a part of the MER training in Denmark together with Ketu Bo. \n“My passion is that people are healthy both physically and mentally. My tools in my work are my hands and my heart. When I put my hands on people\, they more or less start to work by themselves. My clients tell me that it is like my hands have their own healing system! It is so important that you find your own way in life. We all have a purpose to be here\, bodywork is mine and you must find yours”.Embark on a Journey of Personal Transformation through Myofascial Energetic Release \nIn every Myofascial Energetic Release (MER) training\, a distinctive opportunity unfolds for both giving and receiving\, facilitating not only technical mastery but also personal self-discovery. Satyarthi and his attentive team curate a warm and supportive environment\, ensuring every participant feels secure enough to unfold their healing journey. Engage in daily practices such as dance\, meditation\, and sharing sessions that foster authentic and profound connections among participants\, forging a nurturing community to enrich each individual’s journey. \nBy the end of this module\, participants will have enhanced their skill level and sensitivity when engaging with persistent pain and structural dysfunction in the feet\, knees\, and hips. You will also be equipped to create comprehensive treatment sessions that emphasize grounding and energetic contact through the feet and legs. \nBook Training and Accommodation here!\nDetails \nStart: April 13th @ 6:00pm\nEnd: April 19th @ 4:00pm \nPrice including Training and Full Board Deluxe Dorm £1425\nFull Board Accommodation only (for pre-paid ticket holders) £475 \n\nLimited private accommodation available at extra costs. \nFor more info about our accommodation and facilities\, click here \n\n\nBook Training & Accommodation here!

Through this experience the nervous system is relaxing and the energy can move softly.

The sessions were really lovely\, very gentle. We did some creativity workshops as well as healing\, breathing exercises and chakra meditations. Tantra in the West has a really strong s*xual flavour and it’s not really about that. \nDimitri\nIt’s definitely an in-depth exploration and a journey\, which you go on with a group\, so it’s a beautiful container to grow in over time. It was really helpful to learn more about circulating energy through the chakras and to get precise guidance. It felt really expansive and exciting\, and a very interesting way to play with energy. It was a very gentle\, subtle and sweet learning experience. \nAurora\nOne of the things I have loved most about this experience is having the old school tantra\, rituals\, devotion\, working with energy\, breathwork and intention.  this is really meaningful for me because it is hard to find that in England in my experience as there is a lot of neo tantra so it is lovely to have something that the richeness and depth of ancient tradition and wisdom. I also want to share how beautiful it was for me to have Maite singing with her guitar to support us in song. There is something very special about singing in community and to be in devotion through music and song so i’ve really enjoye that she brought her gifts. I’ve had a lovely experience. \nHarmony Isgolde\nIt has been a beautiful four module experience for me\, especially to do this with my beloved; to look at the shadows and the connection between us and how to deepen that\, and also the shadows within myself between the feminine and the masculine has been really great to explore. The whole experience has been really enlightening and brings beauty and joy to the heart. \nPremesh\nI have just completed the LTE and I am so full of love\, I feel amazing. It is such a safe\, gentle space that has been held here. This last 5 months there have been beautiful connections\, beautiful friendships… I highly recommend this to anybody. \nCressida\nI have had a really deep\, meaningful and spiritual journey into myself that has helped me to understand me and others and to open my heart to everyone. \nPrem TuriyaLife Tantra Experience – Training Level 1 Workshop Dates 2026:\n\n\nMarch 20 – 22: Module I “The Tantra Map” Cosmic Blueprint for Living Fully\nApril 17 – 19: Module II\, “The Tantric Vision of the Body and the Senses”\nMay 22 – 24: Module III “She and He are One” The Sun and Moon within\nJune 26 – 28: Module IV\, “Devotional Tantra” – Union\, Love & Meditation\n\nPlease note – This is not a facilitator training.

The Sweat Lodge supports a deep process of purification and integration\, bringing us back into contact with what is whole. \nIn ancestral cultures\, human beings lived as Tribe\, guided by the rhythms of nature and sensing the presence of the Great Spirit in trees\, animals\, plants\, minerals\, and one another. Life was met with reverence\, respect\, and care\, rather than seen as something to be exploited for profit\, as often happens in modern society. \nThe Cosmo-Vision invites us to remember this way of living: reconnecting with the Tribe\, where each person is valued\, respected\, and recognised for their unique contribution to the whole. \nNature and Cosmo-Vision are one. \nThrough this connection\, we see our planet\, Mother Earth\, as part of the greater cosmos\, and the human being as an earthly expression of the stars. \nThis experience is an opportunity to feel alive in your body\, embrace nature within\, feel deep gratitude for the gift of life and start living and honouring your own destiny and soul calling. \n  \nThe Universal Womb\n \nWe enter the lodge\, The Universal Womb\, with respect and humbly to feel the magnificence of Mother Earth and nature.\n\n \n\nIn the Lodge\, you will experience the power and the sweetness of the four elements; earth\, water\, fire\, and air. \nAn experience to go deeply into your being through four rounds of The Sweat Lodge. \nHot volcanic rocks are placed in the center\, and water is poured over the rocks to produce steam. \nHerbs\, typically sage or copal\, are added to aid the cleansing and experiential process. \nYou can receive healing\, tribal unity\, love\, expansion in nature\, and a vast silence. \nThis retreat supports you to: \n\nShining your life\nIntegrate the rhythms of nature into daily\, monthly\, and seasonal life\nLiving with dignity\, coherence\, and inner alignment\nReconnect with inspiration through the beauty of nature\nEmbracing\, seeing your natural talents and share them\nFeeling more grounded\, and present in everyday life\nGain clarity around your life purpose\nReceive loving support\, strength\, and belonging through the Tribe\nOpening to a renewed vision for your life\n\nWhat are we offering to Humanity?\n\nA contribution to deeper contentment and peace—for individuals\, communities\, the whole world and and all beings\nPrayer and intention for a return to inner and collective harmony\, recognising that all beings are interconnected: humans\, animals\, plants\, and the living rhythms of nature\n\nWhat participants say:\nDuring the summer I was fireman at the Sweat Lodge in the grounds of Osho Leela. The Sweat Lodge was facilitated by two Shaman\, Ranjana and Tarisha with great love and awareness. I was helped at the fire by my friend Mel\, together we collected the logs and gathered the rocks. We laid the fire a big cradle in line with entrance of SL. The participants were led in some beautiful rituals that connected us all. Then they all placed a rock on the fire\, and we lit the fire\, a truly magical moment. After two or more hours the rocks were red hot. When the Shaman were ready hot rocks were passed into the lodge one by one. what an experience for us outside tending the fire and rocks. Thank you.Chris Pearse (Premen)\, Gilingham\, Dorset (UK)Participating in a Sweat lodge ceremony\,  held by Ranjana and (Tarisha) I found to be a deeply profound experience \nGoing through the discomfort of the heat\, with others was a very bonding and supportive environment \nDuring the different rounds we were supported by chanting\, singing & drumming\, allowing me to surrender and let go more into meditation and connection with myself \nIt was a beautiful experience sitting on the earth\, under the stars and by the fire\, fully immersed in nature. \nThe ceremony left me feeling cleansed both physically and emotionally\, and my spirit feeling vibrant and alive. \n Karuna Louisa Marsh\nI’ve now experienced three beautiful workshops by Ranjana. In each case\, it was a magical experience\, a really wonderful sense that you were benefiting from the wisdom of different ancient practices\, all of which explored the same fundamental truths about the masculine and the feminine. In the two workshops where I was with my partner\, Ranjana’s wonderful facilitation helped us become even closer\, and discover new ways to connect. We were no longer simply ourselves\, but somehow tapped into a universal energy that manifested itself in our bodies. It really was special. \nStuart\, UK\nMy experience with Ranjana was powerful\, the Tantra workshop raised my awareness to the feminine energy which is within me. I felt energized\, confident and had a lot of fun! It was easy to dive into it and let go. Ranjana is a great teacher\, caring and passionate. I recommend this workshop to everyone.
