Tantra Festival France 2026

Together we can dive deep!

During the festival we will gradually familiarise you with energy, with your own body and your relationship to others. This will be achieved through a variety of meditations, emotional body work, and a variety of other Tantric exercises. The festival will inspire you to live to your full potential and celebrate life, to let go of your fears, to fully relax, and to experience total freedom in the embracing of your true self. The meditations and exercises are focussed on connecting from heart to heart, going deeper inside oneself and to be fully present in the now. The festival is about being open to giving and receiving, to yourself and to others and going beyond the illusion of the physical body, to dive deeper into yourself, and your surroundings.

Together we will discover different aspects of our being in a playful way – within a safe, supportive and loving community.

Tantra

The direct translation of Tantra is: expanding, deepening. It is all about breaking free from societal and religious conditioning. Every day we are faced with human conditioning which withholds us from living in full freedom. Each of us knows what is within and beyond our comfort zone, we are inviting you to broaden and / or lift this limitation you put upon yourself. Could it be that you are not yet aware of your own potential? Our program of playful workshops with constant support and feedback, will allow you to lift these limitations and move into your authentic self.

Tantra as a study in enlightenment

The focus of the Tantra is on self-realization and achieving enlightenment, the experience of cosmic unity. The workshops and exercises are aimed towards making contact with, and perfecting our female and male energy within ourselves. To strengthen and raise the life energy (prana) by balancing the chakras.

Workshops

The program starts daily before breakfast with a 1-hour varying morning workshop. Every day you make a choice out of three different workshops in the morning and three different workshops in the afternoon. Each workshop lasts an average of 2.5 hours. Teachings take up to 7 hours a day.

In the workshops there are individual exercises, with a partner and with the group.

The teachers work closely together in order to move you in their group sessions gradually and synchronically from earthly to ever-refined energy, through awareness and healing of your own body to opening for love and connection with the deeper layers within yourself and with the people around you.

In the festival program Fredrik and Janie provide a safe space to experiment:

• IT’S all about the BASE GROUNDING- ARRIVING – as Bodies as Souls
• It’s all about the HEART HEALING – OPENING – TRUSTING
• It’s all about CONNECTING Whole Body opening to receive
•  It’s all about LISTENING Opening to the higher fields through the body
• It’s all about INTEGRATION Moving sexual energy alone together and as a group & Embodied Meditation.

This is just a small part of our toolkit for you, in order to experience you, to (re)discover all your flavours, to grow, heal, liberate yourself, peel of the onion to become more open, free, conscious, alive and reveal the light being that you already are…

Testimonials from previous participants

“Wow we are all Buddhas …”. We met the Buddha, in ourselves and in the other. Special, surprising, confronting, open, free. A beautiful learning process. (Michelle and Chris)

What a week, what a time. I have felt a lot, and even more. Beautiful Buddhas, nature, delicious food. What else can a man wish for? I am seeing my life little by little in the Sadhaka light. (Stijn)

My Tantra week: Experiencing together with my love and the group what happens when we take off our masks and are not afraid to open up. I connected with the loving, fragile and in the same time such a powerful being inside myself. Going through the outside layers of the physical body and making contact on energy level. If every person on earth could have this experience at least once in his life, there would be less war! Thank you so much for making sure everyone has an amazing week and for your love. (Jos)

Unfamiliar with Tantra, I somehow ended up at the doorstep of Wim and Chandra. Seven days later and my heart is overflowing with love. Tantra deepened the compassion for myself and for the other. Thank you loving people of Sadhaka for your hospitality, the fantastic ambiance, the delicious food and the safe surroundings that allowed me to grow into myself. (Trees)
