TANTRA

Tantra is an almost two-thousand-year-old philosophical tradition and worldview and its roots extend thousands of years back to Hinduism and ancient shamanistic and esoteric traditions. The tantra philosophy that I live, breathe, and teach is based not only on ancient traditions but also on modern tantric teachings, often referred to as neo-tantra.

The tantra work I guide is grounded in the earthly realm. At its core is presence – the deep and honest acceptance of the present moment, as well as listening to your own body, needs, and boundaries. I believe that when a person can rest within themselves and be present, the profound qualities of being can emerge and flow. In my guidance, I don’t emphasize sexuality; I see it as a natural and important aspect of humanity, but not the only one.

A Tantra workshop is a journey that lasts several hours, where we explore various fundamental aspects of life depending on the theme: boundaries, communication, presence, self-compassion, pleasure, surrender, holding space, touch, play, and letting go.

The workshop always places a strong emphasis on what is happening within you during various exercises and interactions. Each workshop starts with grounding into your own body and connecting with yourself. Trust and listening to your own boundaries, feelings, and senses are essential to me. I hope that my workshops can inspire new insights into how to courageously walk towards an authentic life that reflects your true self.

I organize Tantra workshops based on inspiration, and their themes vary. In each workshop there is an assistant present who can provide instructions in English if needed, so you are warmly welcome to participate even if you don’t speak Finnish! 

Workshop pricing depends on the duration and theme.

You can also book a private workshop for a small group or for yourself and your partner. In this case, the content is tailored to your preferences.

Private Tantra Workshop for Couples

Couple Tantra workshops offer an opportunity to connect with your partner in a new way, deepen your connection, challenge familiar patterns, and learn new ones. It also provides a space to pause and enjoy each other within your relationship.

The workshop is customized, based on the couple’s desires and needs. The duration of the workshop is 2-4 hours, and it can take place in the comfort of your home with the coach present or remotely. I can also arrange for a suitable space for the workshop. After the workshop, you will receive a summary of the exercises done, along with a practice or two to inspire continued exploration after the workshop. Additionally, if desired, I can provide you with various sources for further learning and theory related to your chosen themes.

This is a beautiful gift for a partner, a couple celebrating their wedding, or simply for deepening your relationship.

Sample themes:

• Present connection and body awareness
• Honest communication and needs

ZEN COACHING

Zen Coaching is a personal coaching method that allows you to descend into deep presence in a safe support, confront your emotions and needs, clarify your goals and dreams, and integrate unconscious parts of yourself into the unique, flourishing person that you already are.

At the core of Zen Coaching philosophy is the human longing to act and be seen as one’s authentic self. Zen Coaching guides the experiencer to their own power, away from a victim mentality, fostering mature agency and gentle honesty towards oneself. Through this method, one can find ways to respond to life’s challenging moments and conflicts from a place of presence rather than automatic reaction.

In coaching, we descend into experiencing the present moment as deeply as possible, and we repeatedly pause at the threshold of the body. The goal is for the insights you experience during coaching sessions to integrate into your daily life, helping you discover new ways to support yourself on your journey. Together, we explore methods for you to examine and apply these insights in practical ways between sessions – tools, exercises, and novel ways of approaching life.

As your coach, I support your descent into deep presence with strong mindfulness, empathetic listening, mirroring, and by asking questions that facilitate the grounding in the body as well as the exploration of your own emotions and needs.

Often, solutions to the challenges or desires that weigh on the mind or heart can unexpectedly be found in the present moment when one dares to encounter oneself as deeply as possible.

Do you dare?

  Welcome to Meet Yourself – in Gentle and Safe Holding

Held: A Journey of Support is a service offered by Ihmemaa Valmennus, where the methods I guide, my intuition, presence, and the way I hold you merge into a holistic experience.
Holding is deep, present support – I am fully here for you with my entire being.

Held Session

A moment where you can be fully held

A Held Session is a meeting without a predetermined script – a space where you can pause, breathe, and be met exactly as you are. This is a moment where there is no need to perform or hide anything – instead, you can surrender to an experience that unfolds according to your needs.

Holding may include Zen Coaching, conscious and nurturing touch, tantric massage, present listening, space for emotional release, tantric exercises, TRE®, or something entirely different. Each session is unique, intuitively shaped by what serves you best in that moment.

During the session, I am here for you – fully present, holding you, and listening.

How does the session unfold?

A Held Session lasts 2.5 hours and begins with quieting down. We take a moment to tune in to what is moving within you – what your body is telling you, what you long for, and what presence is bringing to the surface.

The session can be gentle and soothing or powerful and transformative, depending on what serves you best. You may also arrive with a clear intention in mind.

At the end, we take time for integration, allowing you to ground your experience and return to your daily life with a renewed sense of alignment.

🌿 If this calls to you, you are warmly welcome to experience the power of being held.

💜 Price: 200€ / 2.5h
Before the session, I will reach out to you by email to get to know you and your needs in advance.
