Tantra Year Training
An all-encompassing transformative Tantra Immersion
Our Tantra Year Training is a profound invitation for spontaneity, freedom and intimacy
Introduction
We all have different reasons for joining the Tantric path. Some of us might aim for full spiritual liberation, awakening to the true nature of who we (already) are, whilst others might want to experience their lives to be more peaceful, free, alive, juicy, joyful.
In this all-encompassing Tantra Year Training we will work on all levels. We will free ourselves from mind created blockages, so our inner light will naturally shine out. We will cultivate awareness so we’ll ripen into awakening and we will work on ‘Bogha’, which means experiencing a good life, enjoying our human experience.
Gradually we will establish a trust in who we are and a full surrender to all manifestations. We will experience our life more spontaneous, free and connected.
Why a year training?
Our Tantra Year Training consists of four modules and all modules can also be booked separately. So why would you commit to a year training?
With all the choices you have to make in life and all the workshop offerings in the ‘self-help-industry’, it’s tempting to ‘shop’ trainings in different places and/or to book the training late. You never know what else will be on the market. Also financial instability might add up to insecurity and procrastination.
During and after a training many participants are overwhelmed by the profoundness of their experience and strongly feel that they want to continue on the path. However, taken by the tightness and business of everyday life, it’s easy to forget this open and spontaneous state of being. In daily life it lies in wait to forget how safe and alive you can feel, no matter the difficulties you are confronted with. Most of the time it takes a lot of time and effort before granting yourself a Tantra experience again.
Moreover, Tantra is not a one time nice or profound experience. Practicing together on a regular basis is necessary to remind yourself of your natural state. Deepening your practice ensures a free, spontaneous and intimate life, a Tantric life.
When you commit to a year training, you will immerse deep in the teachings and the Tantric view will integrate in your life. You will build a strong foundation from which you reap the rewards for times to come. A gift to yourself that cannot be expressed in money.
Nevertheless our Tantra Year Training is offered at a good price; certainly too a significant reason to opt for a year training.
Build up of the training
The Tantra Year Training consists of four modules; more detailed information about these profound modules, you can find below.
Our Tantra Year Training adapts to the energy and needs of the group as the training unfolds, ensuring a personalized experience that emphasizes connection with both yourself and the kula (group of practitioners). At the core of the training are the teachings of non-dual Shaiva Tantra, crafted to deepen your exploration, understanding and realization of awakening.

Two 1:1 Sessions
Over the year you can schedule two one-on-one sessions with the trainer in which you can work a little deeper on themes you are confronted with and/or in which you can sharpen your understanding.
Each session takes 75 minutes and will take place in Haarlem on a date to be agreed upon.
For whom is this Tantra Year Training?
Our Tantra Year Training is open for men and women (regardless of sexual orientation), singles and (occasional) couples, minimum age 20 yrs.
Most likely the Training will be offered in English, unless there are only Dutch speaking participants in the group.
Previous experience with Tantra is no prerequisite for this Tantra Year Training. However, some experience with personal development and meditation is recommended.
Needless to say is that advanced practitioners are most welcome too, even if you already experienced one or more of the modules. As an advanced adept you know the drill…the more advanced you get, the less advanced you act.
Nevertheless if you are new to Tantra and/or to House of Being, we can imagine that you would like to get to know us and the way we work before signing up for this profound journey. It listens closely in Tantra how the work is offered, therefore we advise you to join one of our Intro to Tantra workshops or book a 20-min free call with the trainer.
And of course you are always welcome to email us if you have questions about the training (content and practical) or check our FAQ page.
Admission interview
If you are new to House of Being and you did not participate in one of our Introduction programs or in a 20-min call with Mirjam, you might be invited for an online admission interview with the trainer. During the interview we will explore your motivation for the training as well as your expectations.
If you are invited, the interview is mandatory as a prerequisite for the Tantra Year Training.
The interview via Zoom takes about 60 minutes and costs € 50. You will receive a separate invoice for this interview which needs to be paid regardless of the outcome. During the interview it will become clear whether our Tantra Year Training is suitable for you at this moment. If we belief there is no match, then we reserve the right to cancel your registration.
