Self-Retreat Studio
Come solo or bring a friend, partner, or lover to discover what’s possible when we meet in the Depths of Tantra. The Depths of Tantra is a workshop that at the core asks you: Are you ready to open your heart, surrender to something bigger than yourself, listen deeply to your body in all of its expressions, and experience deeper connection? If so, then welcome. This space is for you. Together we will drop the masks, open our hearts, and ride the tantric wave towards creating deeper connection - through intentionality, ritual, curiosity and juicy embodiment. What is Tantra? Tantra is an ancient spiritual practice that involves countless different practices and traditions. It fundamentally honours and celebrates the full-spectrum human experience, including our sensuality, shame, shadow, joy, happiness, light, and everything in-between. It’s the understanding that deep spiritual awakening and soul liberation comes from daring to integrate all of these parts of us, to embrace, embody and balance the polarity between light and dark, the masculine and feminine (Shiva/Shakti), and by meeting life with love, compassion and honesty. Not by bypassing and rejecting the very things that make us who we are. Tantra is about love, devotion, intimacy with life, and being fully present. We can't practice Tantra without opening our hearts. Getting vulnerable and letting each other in is the only way we can truly experience the life-changing art of tantric connection. When we understand that everything is interconnected, and we dare to meet each other from this place of non-duality, we can begin to let go of the attachments to our identity and ego that creates deep suffering and separation from other human beings. Tantra is what happens when there is no goal to achieve, when expectation and pressure is replaced by loving presence and curiosity, and we switch from living in shameful rejection of who we are - to fully honouring the pleasure of being alive. In my Tantric workshops, I honour you: your realness, your boundaries, your being-ness, your fullness. Come as you are - the realer, the better. The Workshop: This is a fully-clothed workshop where we explore gentle but very powerful Tantric exercises. This space can still feel quite intimate depending on your level of experience, and we do explore sensuality and pleasure. A foundation in personal development, spiritual growth and/or meditation is important, as sometimes challenging emotions can arise. As mentioned above, Tantra embraces the full spectrum of human experience, even the uncomfortable parts, so being able to be with these emotions matters. It's important to note that this is Tantra, not therapy. This workshop is not suitable for those with unresolved trauma that needs attention, or for those that are not ready to challenge/explore beliefs around gender, sensuality and spirituality. We will allow things to unfold depending on what is alive in the room, but here's an idea of what we will explore: - Sharing circles - Creating intentionality through ritual (prayer, intention setting, meditation) - Sensual expression: Explore your “juiciness” through movement, breath and sound - Eye gazing - Various polarity & devotion practices - Playful non-verbal consent practices + discussion - Sensual embodiment practices: Release shame and embrace pleasure - Kundalini (Life-force) flow - Heart opening practices - Gentle (optional) touch like hugs, holding hands, hands on heart + a 30 minute cacao social in the space afterwards! What to bring/wear: - Water to stay hydrated. - Journal and pen. - Clothing that's comfortable for gentle movement - but that also makes you feel connected to yourself and your juiciness! 🔥 (whatever feels right for you on the day). Duration: 3.5 - 4 hours Location: Self-Retreat Studio, Camden (Kentish Town Rd) *Please note: Before the event, you will need to fill out a Google Form (this will be sent to you via email prior to the event). No form = no entry. It matters to me that you are comfortable and feel at ease during the workshop. You never have to participate in anything you don't want to. As always, I will do my absolute best to make this workshop as welcoming, relaxed and fun as possible. This is a space to drop into exactly as you are. The more real and honest you are with yourself where you are truly at, the deeper we can listen, and the more you will get out of this. • Some of my thoughts on Tantra: After 12 years of deep immersion in Tantra (+ Buddhist meditation and Shamanic practices), you can trust me when I say I’ve seen and held space for an extreme spectrum of human experiences. Everything from deep shadow and bruised egos, to blinding light, expansion, juicy sensuality and awe-inspiring expressions of love. I believe we need to make room for it all in order to really grow, because I believe that: We can’t go deep until we dare to be real (with how we feel, with who we are). We can’t experience real connection until we dare to be seen. We can’t grow unless we are lovingly witnessed, lovingly embraced, and lovingly challenged. Mind-blowing love and intimacy is possible, though only when we show up in vulnerability, courage, and deep commitment (to yourself, your practice, your partner, your community). • In practising Tantra, we eventually learn to: - Expand our consciousness - Embrace our divine nature - Embrace our sensuality and release shame - Become more vulnerable and therefore more real (we stop “playing games”) - Increase our capacity to embody, hold, and be present with more of our human experience - Have more energy and capacity for presence, love and sensitivity to others - Love waaaay deeper! - Circulate energy to feel more aliveness, pleasure, and sensation - Dissolve the illusion of separation - Integrate and accept all aspects of what it means to be human - Grow by taking responsibility for how we show up in life About your facilitator: Ellinor Madeland is a Swedish-born, London-based facilitator specialising in Tantra, somatic awareness and conscious connection. With over 11 years of immersive experience with Tantra (across different communities and expressions), she brings both hard-won wisdom and genuine warmth to the events she holds. Having encountered both the profound gifts and the real dangers that can exist within tantric communities, she offers a unique perspective that is honest, grounded and deeply considered. Her workshops are welcoming enough for beginners, and rich enough for seasoned practitioners wanting to go deeper on their path. Alongside Tantra, Ellinor has spent the last decade exploring Buddhist meditation, yoga, shamanic traditions and ceremonial work. The result is a practice that honours both ancient wisdom and modern practices, in a way that feels alive and accessible today. She is known for facilitating spaces where people feel genuinely held, and where real, lasting transformation becomes possible. *Return Policy: 14 day return policy. No refunds after this.

Every time I attend one of her workshops (and I now try to make it to all of them), I leave feeling deeply held and grounded, as if embraced by Mother Earth herself! Her ability to hold space for each participant is truly exceptional - she facilitates with such grace, presence, and care, and it’s clear that every detail is thoughtfully prepared. Ellie creates an environment where everyone feels welcome, safe, and gently invited to explore at their own pace, always with deep respect for personal boundaries. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!" Anonymous - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Workshop: Language of Energy (2026) “This workshop was a beautiful and grounding experience. I arrived feeling anxious, but left feeling calm, open, and more connected to myself and others. The practical exercises helped me feel present in my body and more confident in expressing my boundaries. It felt safe, authentic, and genuinely transformative, thank you for such a special space. ✨” Kate - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Women's Tantra Workshop: Sisterhood, Tantra & Cacao (2026) "The tantric sisterhood circle was such a gorgeous and restful space. There were a mix of people who were new to tantra and those who have been practicing for many years. It felt incredibly safe and supportive; this was due to Ellinor's excellent stewardship and clarity over her intentions for the space, the exercises she chose, and the respect and gentle nature of the women who attended. With every tantric exercise Ellinor made sure it was clear that we were completely free to be actively involved or simply observational depending on our current comfort level. During the sharing I genuinely felt a shared deep peace and acknowledgement with my fellow sisters, it truly was a sacred space. Thank you to all my circle sisters and to Ellinor, so much love and gratitude for each of you. x" Bethany - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Workshop: Language of Energy (2026) “The workshop was a beautiful opportunity to connect to myself and others and explore different practices with like-minded people. As always, Ellinor held the space mindfully and with a lot of care so I felt safe to participate fully.” Sarah - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Women's Tantra Workshop: Sisterhood, Tantra & Cacao (2026) “I felt comfortable, witnessed and present. Something shifted, now two days later and I can’t put it into words yet but it’s positive, light, encouraging & beautiful. I feel open & safe. Thank you Ellinor for such a special afternoon 💛” Palaash - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Women's Tantra Workshop: Sisterhood, Tantra & Cacao (2026) “Ellinor holds space with a rare combination of warmth and quiet confidence that instantly puts you at ease. There's a beautiful balance in how she guides, gentle enough to feel safe, yet nudging enough that you actually move. Her trust in herself is palpable, and somehow that becomes permission for you to trust yourself too. The program she puts together is thoughtfully sequenced . You feel yourself easing open rather than being pushed, which in these kinds of spaces makes all the difference. The dancing exercise was a particular highlight: a live, embodied way to notice where tension lives, where you hide, and where you don't. That kind of real-time self-discovery is hard to create, and she does it effortlessly. The cacao was a beautiful touch, and the women she gathered created a genuinely safe container. I came exactly as I was, and that was more than enough. If you're curious about tantra and want to explore it in a grounded, feminine, and deeply held space, I couldn't recommend Ellinor more highly." Jess - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Women's Tantra Workshop: Sisterhood, Tantra & Cacao (2026) "This is the first female-only tantra workshop I’ve been to – I cannot speak highly enough the way that Ellinor created the space for us. I entered the day feeling nervous (and giddy) and I left feeling grounded, sensual, and connected to the other women I shared the afternoon with. My intention for the space was to remain present – and what I noticed along the way was joy, connection with sisterhood, power, and pleasure in worship. I’m planning on attending her future events this summer" A - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Taster Workshop (2026). “I attended Ellinor’s tantra workshop and found it to be a truly beautiful experience. She has a warm, grounded presence and a way of explaining things that feels both clear and deeply felt. I left feeling more connected, open and inspired. I’d wholeheartedly recommend her work to anyone curious about exploring this path.” Harvinder - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Taster Workshop (2026). “Ellinor a vibrant soul she is, has put on an amazing tantra workshop, it was so positive and loving! I felt open and welcome and would heartily recommend this to everyone!" Jack - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Taster Workshop (2026). “I had a wonderful time at the Tantra taster day. The space felt safe and supportive, and challenging in the right way - engaging our courage to connect to ourselves and others in joyful and expressive ways. Ellinor facilitated with care, generosity and authentic interest in her subject. Exercises were thoughtful, clearly communicated and effective. The dynamics were held mindfully. I fully recommend Ellinor’s tantra events with confidence to future attendees.” Ryeca - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Taster Workshop (2026). “Elinor was an open, loving human who brought that same energy into the space”. Anonymous - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tantra Workshop: Language of Energy (2026). “Ellinor brings a lovely energy to her facilitation and creates a safe space in which to learn about connecting to yourself, others and spirit. I especially enjoyed the insightful embodied consent exercise. A wonderful introduction to tantra.” Kate - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Taste of Tantra (2025) “Ellinor is a really fantastic guide through the first layers of the topic of tantra. The container that she creates is a really beautiful and safe space where I met different souls all looking to connect for different reasons – all are accepted and welcome, with absolutely zero prejudice or expectation. She guides you to a place of exploration and deep mutual trust. I had a truly wonderful experience with her.“ Nim - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Taste of Tantra (2025) “It was a great experience. Such an experience allows someone to drop deep into themselves and forget what is going in their lives and in the outside world. The breath work was euphorically fulfilling.” Pernille - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heart Activation (2025) “What a profound journey. Thank you for bringing us into such a deep space. I had so many visions. I went deeper and higher than I’ve been all at once. It was so profound, a really good experience. Thank you for offering it. You were so present that I felt fully immersed.” Hendrik - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heart Activation (2025) “Thank you for doing this. This was one of the most powerful meditations and inner journeys I think I’ve ever had sober. There was so much in it. It’s crazy how much wisdom you gave me in this one hour. Thank you. This was beautiful.” Anonymous - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heart Activation (2025) “This was a profound experience. World-blowing. Your truth felt honest and strong. The space was set in a limitless way, the way you fell into it. I had my own crazy experience sitting here. So thank you for that. You carried and held us in such a respectable manner.” Bethany - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solstice Cacao Ceremony (2025) “The ceremony was a beautiful opportunity to connect to myself, to ground into my body and to explore my emotions. I left feeling softer and more open.” Malin - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heart Activation (2025) “I loved how you held the space. There were times where I was like “how does she know what to say?”. It was such a flow. I haven’t gone that deep that quick in a long time. I really enjoyed it, and I got to another level of what I already know, where I’m already going. A very important workshop. Thank you.” P - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rose Cacao Ceremony (2025) “Ellinor has a beautiful, open and generous energy. Her heart opening cacao ceremony was carefully curated and every detail had been considered. The ceremonial cacao was delicious and I immediately felt my heart open and I dropped into my body which primed me wonderfully for the rest of the ceremony. The soul retrieval meditation was very powerful and Ellinor really guided us through that step by step. It was such an amazing, safe space and it was so easy to share afterwards. She even baked the most amazing apple crumble!” With love, Ellinor Madeland
