ABOUT YOUR FACILITATOR:

Amanda Ananda is an International Tantric Facilitator and Domestic Goddess of 2 outrageous young boys. Amanda has a diverse Tantrica background that allows for a unique, blissful and radiant experience to unfold in her workshops, online courses and sessions. She has studied with The School of Tribal Tantra based on Kashmir Shaivism and Shamanic Ritual, Ipsalu Tantra – Kriya Yoga based on Osho’s dynamic teachings, and Babaji Nagaraj’s esoteric Cobra Breath Technique and Urban Tantra combining modern tantric philosophy with conscious kink. Amanda as a life-long student, immersed herself in the sacred teachings from the Temple of Isis and Mary Magdalene, and is most recently now diving deeply into Somatic Trauma Healing. She encourages you to live blissfully in this intense world by gently taking care of yourself and making joyful well-being your first-and-foremost priority. Her techniques will help you to become embodied with simple-yet-profound, heartfelt tools that you can apply in your daily life.

Working with Amanda will assist you to clear the “murky gunk” that blocks you from your true light, guiding you in opening up to the miracle of life, and embracing the bubble of “ananda” (or, in English, bliss!) that is constantly accessible to us all. She is tremendously enthusiastic and humbled to share these teachings with the wonderful souls who say ‘HEAVEN’S YES’ to time spent with her.

Amanda is responsible for bringing Cuddle Party to the Connecticut area. She is ecstatic and honored to support the quickly evolving local Cuddle Monster community.

You can follow her at Amanda Ananda on Facebook or @thetantricmama on Instagram. Go to www.TheTantricMama.com for free meditations, online courses, private sessions and event schedule.

Ticket Price: $28 You can pay via Venmo, Zelle, or cash at the door. 

Feel free to bring your own snacks or meals if you'd like. We've got a kitchen available, so you're welcome to chill, munch, and refuel whenever you need. 

Ecstatic Dance is a beautiful celebration of movement and self-expression, inviting participants to flow freely in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. As you step into the space, you're greeted by an uplifting energy, with music that ranges from enchanting melodies to vibrant beats, all designed to inspire your body to dance. 

The event usually begins with a gentle opening circle, where everyone gathers to set intentions and share a sense of connection. Guidelines create a safe haven for exploration, emphasizing respect for personal space and the joy of being fully present. 

Once the music starts, it’s all about letting go. Each dancer is encouraged to follow their own rhythm, allowing the sound to guide them into spontaneous movement. This dance is more than just physical; it's a form of meditation, a way to express emotions, and a path to deeper self-discovery. 

As the event flows, the energy in the room builds, with smiles, laughter, and shared moments of joy creating a tapestry of connection among participants. When the music fades, a closing circle invites everyone to share their experiences, reinforcing the sense of community. 

Ecstatic Dance is a magical journey where you can explore your creativity, connect with others, and experience the sheer bliss of moving your body to the rhythm of life.

Have you been curious about Tantra?
Interested in experiencing TRUE CONNECTION with yourself, the Divine, and others?

This evening's event will begin with the very basics.

My goal for the evening is to reconnect you with your TRUE DIVINE NATURE, to experience the fountain of unconditional love and acceptance we all have access to but have forgotten. Once you are floating within your own BLISSFUL MAGNIFICENCE, I will lead you through some fun simple exercises with each other that will help you to truly experience an embodied heart-opening intimacy with life.

What you will gain:
*Connection
*Friendship
*Community
*Personal Development
*Witness Consciousness
*Laughter
* ♥

What is Tantra?
Many think of Tantra as a way to enhance their sexuality. While that is an amazing benefit of practicing Tantra, that’s only part of the picture.
Tantra isn’t just a practice. It is method of spiritual advancement as derived from a sophisticated lineage of yogic masters of the ancient world. These methods enable us to cultivate the energy of our bodies (physical, energetic), mind and soul, so we can blossom into our authentic natures. By doing so, we can more joyfully and skillfully engage in our contemporary world. By recognizing our power within the quantum field of love and light, and the influences we can have within it, we can master positive change in our own lives and of the world. The ego mind believes having its desires fulfilled will bring happiness but that is seldom true. The Soul lives in bliss. By identifying more and more with your divine nature, you release your desires and discover who you truly are.
