May 2025, Monte Velho

Experience a Transformative Retreat in the Algarve, Portugal

Embark on a profound journey of self-discovery at our transformative retreat nestled in the stunning landscape of Monte Velho. Surrounded by lush forests, breathtaking vistas, and a serene atmosphere, this retreat invites you to step into a space of deep practice, contemplation and community.

Our responsive retreats adapt to the energy and needs of the group as the retreat unfolds, ensuring a personalized experience that emphasizes connection with both yourself and the kula. At the core of the retreat are the teachings of non-dual Shaiva Tantra, crafted to deepen your exploration, understanding and realization of awakening.

While each day in a responsive retreat is unique, throughout the retreat, we will delve into a rich variety of topics from the Tantric philosophies, and engage in energy body practices that cultivate greater awareness and a deeper intimacy with reality. We will also explore the practice of mantra and potentially dive into some textual study, allowing these profound teachings to illuminate and deepen our practice. There will also be embodiment and somatic awareness sessions to help integrate your experiences.

Additionally, you will have the opportunity to connect with our kula, and foster meaningful relationships allowing you to build a supportive network for your ongoing journey.

Join us in the serene beauty of Mount Madonna, California, as we embark on this enriching exploration together, nurturing our understanding of the sacred traditions and practices of Classical Tantra.

Your booking includes retreat tuition, accommodation and three delicious vegetarian meals per day.

Our retreats are phone free but we provide you with an emergency contact number to share with your loved ones.
