“I learned to accept myself exactly as I am and to give myself the right to live my life the way I want, and not the way others expect me to.”
Hello, I’m Sandra,
I’m from Belgium,
and I’d love to share with you my experience
from the tantra workshop
I attended with Monika and Peter
at the Connective Tantra School in Spain.
It was a fantastic experience.
During the whole week,
I was able to see who I truly am
and felt completely supported
by the whole group
under Monika and Peter’s guidance.
There I learned
to accept myself exactly as I am
and to give myself the right
to live my life the way I want,
and not the way others expect me to.
The workshop was perfectly organized,
the meals were delicious,
I had a spacious room,
and the atmosphere was relaxed and easygoing—
we laughed a lot.
What I especially enjoyed in the workshops
were the contact exercises,
the meditations,
and the bodywork.
I learned so much about myself
and will carry this with me
for the rest of my life.
I’m very grateful
for this beautiful transformation,
and in the future,
I will definitely attend more workshops
at the Connective Tantra School.
Thank you.

“It was something very big for me, because I have reached such a profound internal transformation that has given me the freedom to be who I am, what I have been working on for a long time.”
Hi, I’m Montse Paredes del Carmen. Today I’m here to share my great experience I had with Peter and Monica in the Tantra workshop I did here in Spain. It was something very big for me, because I have reached such a profound internal transformation that has given me the freedom to be who I am, what I have been working on for a long time.
And through their exercises, their presence, their words, their energy, their entire workshop that they have transmitted to me, they have given me a lot of faith, a lot of peace, a lot of stability, and above all a smile on my face. Because thanks to them, and of course thanks to my work, I have been able to be more stable, connected with everything that I have around me, in front of me, and above all inside me. That woman who was quiet, small, well now she is manifesting and presenting herself as Montse Paredes del Carmen.
It’s me! Delighted! If you feel like it, I advise you to go and have this experience. It’s very big, valuable, and an incredible peace, love.

“I´m in a kind of joy, inner peace, calm and really deeply connected with my body and my heart. I´m just feeling Love..”
I just want to share my current state of being.
Since I returned to the island and had a really good night’s sleep in my own bed, something shifted. I woke up on the morning of June 4th feeling a deep sense of joy, inner peace, and calm. I’ve been profoundly connected to my body and my heart ever since.
I feel love. I feel peace.
Even when I try to think something negative — and believe me, I do have challenges in the outside world — it doesn’t affect me. I remain in this peaceful state.
It’s incredible.
When I walk, I feel like an observer — fully present, completely in the here and now. It’s like magic.
And by the way, I’ve stopped drinking coffee — thank you, Peter, for that inspiration. I don’t miss it at all. I want to preserve this beautiful state of mind, this state of being. It feels like bliss.
I honestly hope this feeling stays with me for a long time. And I trust it will. There’s no doubt, no anxiety — and all of this without any substances.
Whatever I did… it brought me here.
And I want to thank you — because you were part of my journey.
Wishing you a beautiful weekend.
Abrazos.

“I live most of the time in my head, I’m very rational and I wanted to explore more balance and be in contact with my heart.”
Hello, I’m Jeroen, and I’m from Belgium.
I participated in the Tantra course with Peter and Monica, and I’d like to share a bit about my experience.
As someone who tends to live mostly in my head — very rational — I wanted to explore more balance and reconnect with my heart. At first, the experience was definitely outside my comfort zone. But thanks to the safe and supportive environment created by Peter, Monica, and the group, I felt secure from the beginning.
The course started with a clear theoretical explanation, including how to set personal boundaries, which helped me feel even more at ease. That foundation allowed me to really be myself and to explore authentic contact — both with others and with myself.
Over time, I found myself becoming more in touch with my heart and creating true, honest connections. From that deeper place, it became possible to build more meaningful relationships with others as well.
I’d truly encourage any men who may be hesitant to take part in this course. It’s a powerful way to find more balance within yourself and to build genuine self-confidence.

If we take a look at the meaning of the word Tantra, which is a Sanscriet word, (Sanscriet is an old language that does not exist anymore) then tantra means literally that what is woven or in other words that what is connected.
In tantra we work with connection: we ask ourselves the question: how can I connect in a better, healthier way with myself and from there, how can I connect in a healthy way with somebody else.
For tantricas a good or healthy connection starts in the first place in their own hearts, that’s why we call Tantra, the path of the heart.
And by far the most important quality of the heart is to love, so tantra is the path of love.
In tantra, we are learning through experience, not so much by theory or knowledge. In tantra we experience mostly through exercises with our body, sometimes with our mind.
In the experience we are working a lot with pleasure, so in tantra learning by experience is a lot of fun, we are not learning by suffering.
In tantra we mostly don’t give the answers, we are showing you the path to find the answers yourself, by experience.
If you are looking for a more balanced, happy and joyful life that is lived from the heart, or if you want to liberate yourself of certain limitations, judgements or dogmas that don’t serve you anymore, you could consider to follow the path of Tantra.
In the Connective Tantra School, safety, respect, expertise, kindness and care are the keywords.
We provide for our participants a warm, safe heaven were they can explore, grow, transform and enjoy, in their own rhythm. Everybody is always fully accepted just the way he or she is.
In our workshops and sessions all exercises are optional, nothing is mandatory.
All our facilitators are experienced, certified tantra teachers who work from their heart without any judgement.
Before each workshop or session we will always organize a video contact with new participants to learn to know each other, to talk about eventual concerns and to answer all questions posed.
Most sessions and workshops are open for singles, couples or any other relation form. However sometimes we organize workshops especially for a group of singles or couples. If this is the case, this is clearly mentioned.
As an important part of life, healthy sexuality is a topic that is covered in our tantra sessions and workshops. According to the Tantra philosophy all contact between human beings should start and be anchored in the heart and this also counts for sexual contact. If a sexual encounter between human beings is anchored in the heart, we call this encounter a sacred sexual encounter. So in Tantra we try to lift sexuality to a higher dimension by including our hearts. Other aspects related to sexuality like desires, boundaries and radical honesty are also topics that are covered in our workshops and sessions.
At the Connective Tantra School we always fully accept and welcome every sexual preference or gender identification without any judgment or opinion. In our sessions and workshops the keywords are connection and love, and as a tantra school we are open to all forms of expression of those two beautiful items.
It is neither mandatory or necessary to be naked during Tantra workshops or sessions. However, in certain circumstances, for instance in a Tantra massage setting, it can be convenient to be (partially) naked, but there is always a total free choice of the participant in this matter.
For any further information, for all your questions, for a request to a free personal contact by video call or for all inscriptions, you can fill in the contact form* and we will get in contact with you very soon. (*click and then close this window)
The Connective Tantra School also organizes trainings for people who have the ambition to become a Tantra facilitator or a Tantra massage practitioner. Those trainings exist of a series of workshops followed by an internship, supervision and a cap stone project.
