** Intro to Sacred Tantra: Where Spirit and Body Meet

Hosted by Certified SkyDancing Presenter: Patrick Chapman
Featured Guest Teachers: Wilder Akasha & Jim Macdonald

O’Shea’s Place just SW of Austin, Texas
Friday, January 15 (starting 5pm) – Monday, January 18 (ending 1pm), 2027

We are full beings, complete in ourselves, yet we often don’t feel that way. Modern life focuses our minds in one place while our bodies find themselves in another. This drains our spirit, bombarding us with messages that we are either too much or not enough.
What if we could reclaim the truth? What if we could feel our birthright that we are full, complete beings in ourselves, that we are blissful by nature, and just enough, exactly as we are?

Join us for an extended Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend training dedicated to experiential learning about tantra in a peaceful private sanctuary.
Wilder and Jim invite you, supported by Patrick, to explore tantra practices incorporating breath, sound, and movement to help cultivate awareness, vitality, and intimacy. Sessions include breathwork, meditation, authentic communication, touch, and tantra rituals.

Our exploration of Tantra encourages awareness of cultural conditioning, a deeper relationship with your body, and choices that honor your boundaries. We honor the body as a sacred doorway to presence. Body-focused practices are clothing-optional.

** This workshop serves as a prerequisite for the Love & Ecstasy Training®.

Open to everyone. No previous experience necessary: Intro to Sacred Tantra is open to people who come alone (solo) or those who come with a partner. All races, genders, and orientations are welcome.

We offer modifications to ensure participants with physical limitations can participate.

Led by a SkyDancing-trained Staff:
Patrick, Wilder, and Jim are trained in the SkyDancing Tantra lineage. Patrick completed his teacher-training in 2018. Wilder and Jim are currently teachers-in-training. Together, they bring decades of teaching, coaching, and facilitating experience across various modalities.

Training at Private Retreat Center with Lodging and Organic Food: Our training is at O’Shea’s Place, a private retreat center about a 20-minute drive southwest of Austin (30 minutes from the airport).

We will have nine meals together beginning Friday evening and concluding with lunch on Martin Luther King Jr. Day Monday. All meals will be organic and specially prepared to meet your dietary needs.

Informal meals and time for rest, conversation, and solitude are an important part of our training. They provide opportunities to connect with the group, reconnect with yourself, and integrate your workshop experience.

O’Shea’s Place has options for private rooms for partners/couples and for everyone for shared bunkhouse bedrooms or indoor or outdoor camping. Provided that you agree to arrive on time for all sessions, you may also make your own accommodations offsite (recognizing that we will typically end by 10pm in the evening and begin again at 8am).
