Johan Raaimakers

Since 2010 I follow several intensive massage courses that have led to the knowledge and experience of today. My main education is training as a Tantra masseur at Tantra Lotus in Breda. This is a Tibetan Buddhist training from the Kum Nye tradition, where a lot of attention is paid to practice (massage), theory (Dharma), yoga and meditation (Vipassana and Tenang). I have experienced the profound effect that a massage has on physical, emotional and mental well-being. Massage techniques like Sveda, Vedic and Prana Flow, and the integration of duo yoga techniques and meditative techniques into a treatment provide a stable basis for giving Tantristic sessions. I have gained extensive experience in giving massages and coaching and although all people, wishes and bodies are different, my intention is always the same: bringing balance.
I still follow courses and delve into Eastern and Tibetan traditions and visions.

I have gained experience at the Rasayana Tantra Academy in Rotterdam. I followed several courses of national and international teachers in various Tantra disciplines. I am also active outside the Netherlands and Europe. I regularly work as a guest body-worker at various events and I work closely with a colleague from Munich on various courses and training courses where “De Shift” is an annual highlight. Since 2016 I also give practical lessons in Tibetan Tantra massage supplemented with the necessary theory. My goal in these lessons is to let people experience what Tantra and the philosophy behind it is and how it feels. The Tibetan Tantra massage trilogy “Prana & Connection” and “The Playground of Prana” and the “Tantra & Shibari” workshops are good examples of this. Together with colleagues I also organise various weekend workshops with various themes in the spring and autumn.
