Presented by Bud Barber and his Tantra Yoga Students
Sunday 19 December 2004 10:30 am - 9:00 pm
In this complete and comprehensive Tantric Massage Workshop you'll have the opportunity to learn and experience three Tantric yet distinctly different types of massage. Also during the day informative talks will be given on the goal and benefits of Tantric Massage.
First the Tantric Kundalini Massage will energize and awaken your "charka system." This massage is often used to activate the Kundalini or spiritual force at the base of your spine.
Second the Taoist Massage, also a stimulating massage and sometimes even cathartic, will energize your body & emotions by combining powerful breath-work with dynamic movement.
The final is the Sensuous Tantric Massage and as the name implies is a highly enjoyable and relaxing experience. With this massage you and your partner will have a chance to blissfully indulge yourselves in one of the most exotic body sensations ever.
The location of the "Tantric Massage Playshop" will be:
Northbrook House 1257 High St. Malvern (behind Malvern Library) Melways Map 59 C - 7

Because we'll be doing the massages on top of a carpeted area in a rented hall we ask everyone to bring (besides massage oil, two towels per person, and a shawl to wear when walking around) a large bed sheet to cover the area that they'll be working so that no oil can get onto the rug.
Before you can attend the workshop we must confirm that you have a partner or at least someone to work with. So if you are single please try to find a partner or a friend that you can bring with you. If you can not find a partner please notify Bud on: (03) 9531-4968 and I will try to arrange a partner for you. If you're single and come with a friend you'll be free to work with other people in the workshop if you and your friend wish but you must at least have someone to work with to begin with.
If you would like for me to arrange a partner for you please fill out the following:
Are you male of female?.............
Do you prefer a male or female partner?.............
If you don't care what sex your partner is please write indifferent.............
How old are you?..........

i.e. you're gay, tall, short, star sign etc....................................................
Would you be willing to pay for both you and your partner?....................................
Would you like for me to find a partner who may be willing to pay for you?............
Please note that there's no guarantee that a compatible partner can be found for you but filling out the above form should help.
Tantric massage is unique to most other body work in that it is by nature open free and flowing. For instance you may work from many different positions similar to that pictured in the Taoist or Kaman Sutra texts or you may massage with all different parts of your body such as your forearms, legs, feet even your shoulders. Tantric massage also works with the breath as well as physical and spiritual energy and even though the massage may not become sexual it is still quite sensual. The goal is not to just feel good or get high but to calm the mind and cool the senses so that a deep state of meditation can be achieved. This enables you both to achieve a conscious state of true Self-recognition.
