In the tantric tradition, true bliss is not something we chase—it is what remains when we soften deeply enough to meet ourselves.

The texts remind us that in profound relaxation, the contracted self dissolves, revealing our essential state: spacious, alive, and quietly ecstatic.

As expressed in Tantrāloka, this recognition is the expansion of the self into all that is—where separation fades, and only wholeness remains.

This half-day retreat invites you into a sacred unwinding, through traditional Tantra Yoga and Ayurvedic walking massage, guiding you back to the effortless bliss that is your innate self.

I bring these practices lovingly home all the way from my time in India. I bow in reverence to the teachers who have passed these down to me; their wisdom and loving will forever be etched in my bones. They have brought me into deep recognition and remembrance. They continue to unravel through my memory and consciousness, as they are potent methods for utter bliss and harmony.

• AYURVEDIC WALKING MASSAGE:

A powerful full-body treatment that uses grounded, rhythmic pressure through the practitioner’s feet to work deeply into the tissues.

Beyond muscular release, this style of bodywork stimulates circulation, lymphatic flow, and the nervous system—while also activating the body’s energetic pathways (often referred to as nadis or meridians).

By clearing stagnation along these channels, the body becomes more receptive, the spine and subtle centres more awake, and prana can move with greater ease.

Traditionally, bodywork like this is understood to prepare the system—softening physical resistance, supporting the flow of vital energy, and creating the ideal internal conditions for a more profound and effortless asana practice to unfold

• TRADITIONAL TANTRA YOGA PRACTICE:

The Tantra Yoga series is a prana-based, asana-led practice rooted in the Kaula tradition—where we are not working to stretch or fix the body, but to cultivate trust with it.

Each posture becomes a gateway into the subtle, allowing the subconscious to soften and reveal itself in its own time.

Through repetition and a gentle, non-imposing approach, we de-armour, unwind, and begin to feel what is truly there—without force, without agenda.

It is through this deep relaxation, moving cell by cell, that prana begins to flow more freely, restoring harmony and awakening a quiet, embodied bliss from within

Our half-day retreat will move in this direction:

• A demonstration on the ayurvedic walking massage to open meridians of the body and work more deeply into certain muscle groups such as lower back, deep gluteal space, piriformis, and psoas
• Partners will be paired, and each will give and receive this massage to prepare the body for the asana practice – you can either come with a partner or be lovingly paired with someone
• Break for a nourishing meal to warm the bones and soften the heart – Included
• Come together for the tantra yoga asana-based series where we culture prana and cakras. This system of yoga is known to contain and work into the full health of the body by integrating all systems into harmony and balance

Suskia harnesses the power of touch as a pathway for tracking trauma &
lost feeling. She truly ​believes that when touch becomes a practice of
meditation, this profoundly activates the body’s ​ability to nurture itself.

She is no stranger to the underworld of our sexual nature, the somatics of
how trauma moves in ​a body, & the immense initiations that take place
through menstruation.

Having studied anatomy/physiology, classical tantra, ancestral/womb
cosmology & somatic bodywork; she offers ​herself as the bridge between
science and the unseen.

She shapeshifts between the realms of blood, body tissue & nervous
system; the realms of the ​dark womb, the bones of ancestral stories, our
sexual shadows, the erotic & trauma imprinting ​through a visceral
understanding that these are what bring the body into harmonious ​
connection with who we innately are.

Suskia holds the intention of consciously placing herself as a gateway for
others to return home ​to this essential teaching: That when a body
begins to unclench itself from a lifetime of holding ​tight & descends into
deep relaxation, softness & opening, we rediscover that we hold great ​
medicine, wisdom, love & unbounded pleasure.
