Come home to the one
who was never broken.
You have already felt the opening. The breath that dropped you into your body. The first taste of what tantra makes possible when you stop performing and start feeling.
Now we go deeper.
​
Deeper Tantra is where the practice stops being something you visit on a weekend and becomes something you live from. Where pleasure, presence, and power stop being ideas and become the ground you stand on.
WHERE MODERN TANTRA MEETS ITS SOURCE
This is a space to share more about the business: who's behind it, what it does and what this site has to offer. It’s an opportunity to tell the story behind the business or describe a special service or product it offers. You can use this section to share the company history or highlight a particular feature that sets it apart from competitors.
You do not have to choose between feeling and depth. Here you get both. This is tantra with its roots still in the ground.
Many modern Tantra spaces are simply selling you the fruit. This workshop series is giving you the whole tree.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF
You walked out of the Fundamentals weekend feeling like you were hungry for more, finally felt like you’re getting somewhere and maybe even found your spiritual home.
You have done ISTA, or enough other neo-tantra work, and you can feel that while it may go deep in some respects, you can’t feel that deeper thread that goes back through time to the masters who originated this tradition.
You can feel the pull toward something deeper. Toward awakening, toward wholeness, toward coming home to who you really are. Many spaces pay lip service to awakening, but lack the time-tested tools of tradition to help you actually move in the right direction.
You are ready to devour the path, not just taste it.
This is where it begins— a soul-deep hunger for Reality.
Deeper Tantra is a structured, multi-level journey, and Level 1 is the foundation. Here we build the sovereign, embodied self that everything else rests on. Levels 2, 3, and 4 carry you further in, deeper toward the awakening this work is made to hold. You build the ground before you can rise from it. That is what this weekend is: step one, and the one everything after it is built on.
WHAT WE'LL EXPLORE
Over two days we move from the inside out. First we build the pillar within you. Then we take it into contact with another, where most of us lose ourselves.
Day One - The Sovereign Within
-
Finding your own inner pillar: the felt sense of a self that does not need fixing, rescuing, or completing.
-
Cultivating a sense of healthy ego, healthy boundary of self, and innate divine worthiness.
-
Sourcing your own pleasure and meeting your own pain, without reaching outside yourself for either.
-
Staying with whatever arises in you, and learning the language your body has been speaking all along.
Day Two - Sovereign in Contact
-
What shifts the moment another person enters the field, and how to stay yourself inside it.
-
Speaking your boundaries, needs, and desires cleanly, without getting tangled in the story or the anxiety.
-
Being with your own energy, connecting with others without merging, and walking away from an interaction clean, clear, and complete, instead of carrying them around for days.
-
Using contact, sensation and the meeting of edges as conscious practice: sensory experience as a doorway, held in awareness and consent.
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
-
Deeper Embodiment: a felt sense of being at home in your own skin, and deep knowing where you end, and where others begin.
-
Deeper Practice: time tested tools that keep working long after the weekend ends, and a systematized framework that delivers real progress.
-
Deeper Community: real life connection with people who are linking arms and heading the same direction, as well as ongoing online community growth, support and learning with the Kula Calls.
-
Deeper Sovereignty: feeling open, ground and calm in your nervous system; more attunement and agency and the quiet knowing that you can meet your life, and everyone in it, from wholeness rather than lack.

THE REAL THING
​
You have probably tasted enough tantra to know when something is only skimming the surface.
This is not that.
This is the practice with its lineage intact, taught by facilitators who live it daily in partnership. We meet you in the beautiful, alive, expansive parts and in the tender, shadowed, human ones, because wholeness needs both.
ABOUT US
BEN RAYA
After 30 years of being the classic western disembodied head on a stick, Ben has dedicated the last 7 years to practices of embodiment, somatic and awakening into real human presence.
The call came for him with the birth of his second child, a perfect mirror for all his disowned parts of himself, which launched him into the internal work he needed to step into the person that was necessary to raise her. This being the greatest gift he has ever received.
His primary tradition has been the study of classical tantra, with extensive time practicing modern Tantra, as well. Beyond those, Ben finds continued embodiment practice through Thai Massage, West African Drum and Dance, and Brazilian Zouk. Music has been in his veins since he was a child and even pursued in it in University. His mastery of working within the energetics of the rhythm of life to inspire and move the body is tantric in itself.
When he is not facilitating, coaching or with his children his is still working within his embodiment practice as a Lumberjack, where finding connection to nature, the body and the Dark Masculine, a rich and fruitful tantric practice in and of itself.
Ben is passionate about guiding others into new realms of embodiment, pleasure and connection.
LARINDA MICHELLE
Larinda has spent the last 20 years of her life in event and project production. This has taken many different forms from parties, psychedelic journeys, directing music festivals to sensual connection workshops. Within the projects she had been unconsciously began building a strong attunement for space holding and building communities.

While on her own journey of healing, she found Tantra and immediately felt a deeper call to service. Taking the Practitioner Training through the Embodied Awakening Academy brought a new understanding of trauma, energetics and somatics that has has proven successful with many of her clients.
