The Art of Living and Dying
Ma Dharm Jyoti
Croydon Hall
This group is based on Osho's vision for the "New Man", who has reverence for life, who accepts life totally and lives consciously moment to moment,
being in harmony with himself and others.
In these five days, we will play with Osho's meditation techniques to drop all the invisible load we are carrying and will allow our potential to express the fragrance of Buddhahood. The other part of the group will be to accept and learn the art of letting go into the ultimate mystery.
Ma Dharm Jyoti is one of the first Osho disciples. She took sannyas in 1970 in Manali where Osho initiated his first group of sannyasins and she has been with Osho ever since. Her book "One Hundred Tales for Ten Thousand Buddhas" is a touching account of her life with Osho. Presently Ma Dharm Jyoti leads meditation camps in India at Oshodham and all over the world.
All-inclusive price from £299
We have a "To the door" Travel Special from London Hammersmith to Croydon Hall. Return ticket price £32

Sexual Achemy - Tantra for Singles
Sarita and Shiva
School of Awakening
During this 5 day workshop we will offer a direct transmission of Tantra master keys, with meditation, dance and rituals.
There are seven keys for a fulfilled sexual experience:
1) awakening vital energy through the senses and allowing this as a full bodily experience
2) allowing emotions to become fluid in their expression
3) allowing the play of yin and yang energies to have equal space during sex
4) surrendering to love itself
5) learning the art of touching and being touched, of giving and receiving 6) disappearing as a self and becoming oceanic
7) recognising sex and spirit as one
Participating in such a profound journey transforms both individuals and couples, helping us reclaim the bliss and aliveness which is our natural birthright.
Mahasatvaa Ma Ananda Sarita is a world renowned Tantra teacher and author and Co- Director of the School of Awakening, based in England. She lived in India for 26 years studying Tantra with her spiritual Master Osho, and has been teaching throughout the world since 1990. Amrit Shiva (formerly known as Nirav Chintan) is apprentice co-teacher with Sarita. He is a holistic healing practitioner, has been practising Zazen for 20 years and Tantra for 10 years.
This workshop is open to both singles and couples and to beginners and more experienced Tantrikas.

An Autumn ReTreat
Dilys Morgan Scott
This dancing workshop is a 5Rhythms residential weekend, which is available to everyone, whether they have previous experience of Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms work, or not. It is for people who want to move and be moved.
It is an opportunity to be more present in our bodies, more connected to our hearts, more honest and expressive with our feelings, more alive in each moment, more gentle with ourselves, more relaxed in our being, more willing to listen deeply within and to gently shake loose our patterns. Moving into the unknown let us be willing to step out and see what we find there. It is a moving meditation, an animated and dynamic communication with each other, the divine and ourselves.
To quote Gabrielle Roth "...hers is the art of inspiring - to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. This is the work we are here to do. We will dance, move, paint, write, touch and make theatre - all stirred together, with a lightness of touch and a sprinkling of humour, to make a rich feast of soul food.'

Tantra for Couples Level 1
Sarita & Shiva
School of Awakening
The theme in this first level is to deepen intimacy through the following ways: a deep cleansing of stagnant patterns of relating, opening the heart and conscious communication through receptivity, sexual de-conditioning and discovering the dimension of sacred sexuality in Tantra.
The full Couples Tantra training provokes powerful transformation and healing in yourself as an individual, and in your relationship. Both parties should be aware of this fact and willing to dive into transformational experiences. The Tantra meditations which include sexual union are practised in the privacy of your bedroom. We offer personal coaching and healing as an integral part of the training. Another important aspect of the training is the group dynamics. Having a room full of couples moving through the same structures, helps in creating a magical alchemy of love. Deep friendships often develop between couples as they all move through the process together. This is one of the master keys which support rapid transformation.

Sacred Sexuality - Tantra for Singles
Sarita & Shiva
School of Awakening
This 6 day group is structured as a journey into sexual awakening and the flowering of this energy into divine sexuality. Some people are afraid to come to a Tantra group, even though they long for the liberation and ecstasy Tantra can bring, simply because they have heard rumours that Tantra may mean getting naked and having orgies or being forced to have sexual relations with a stranger. We would like to clarify that even though we work with liberating sexual energy in this group, we do so in a respectful way, remaining considerate of people’s vulnerability around intimacy. Sexual union between group members is not part of this group structure. We feel this gives people the opportunity for exploring more deeply, simply because there is a deep sense of trust, that you can experiment with many facets of your life force energy, without the fear of going ‘further’ than you would like. Deep and lasting friendships develop between participants in this easy, loving atmosphere of security and experimentation.
In this group we explore 5 stages of sensual awakening. The first phase is self love, which naturally develops between 0—7 years of age. The second phase is same sex bonding, which spontaneously arises between 7—14 years of age. The third phase is heterosexual relating, which commences between 14 –21 years of age. The fourth phase is intimacy, which emerges easily in an individual who has experimented with “sowing their wild oats” and then feels the urge to go deeper with one partner. The fifth phase is Sacred Sexuality, which arises if one has deeply lived the other phases of development. If a person has suffered a traumatic experience during one or more of these phases, their sensual development may become stunted and they will have difficulty to access their potential for fulfilment in sex and relating.
During the group process, we live through these phases, rewriting our life script in a positive way, using Tantric meditations, rituals, group exercises, dance and psychodrama. Participants are able to resolve and heal wrong conditioning around sexuality and move forward on their life path towards an ecstatic expression of all that they are. Integral parts of the group are methods to awaken the dormant life force, also known as Kundalini energy, leading one into expanded states of consciousness and bliss. In this milieu, the group soul expands, into an ongoing dance of vibrant loving aliveness. The transformation people experience during this group is deep and lasting.
