Discover the path of Sacred Relating
Tantric Intimacy Retreat
LOVE | INTIMACY | DEVOTION
A 5-day Immersion into Tantric Intimacy & Liberated Love
For couples on the path of Devotion, Awakening and Ecstasy
Are you and your partner ready to dive deep into the powerful relational practices of sacred intimacy?
Where your relationship becomes a container for your spiritual awakening and liberation?
Luna and Tristen are here to support you to explore the profound gifts that Tantra and Sacred Sexuality has to offer your relationship.
Over 5 powerful days you'll re-ignite passion, explore new depths of intimacy, experience expertly guided rituals and leave with tools that can serve you a lifetime.
THE PATH OF THE TANTRIC CONSORT
In the Tantric tradition, there was a recognition that through a partnership with a fellow spiritual seeker, we could evolve and awaken on profound new levels. They developed tools for harnessing the intimacy cultivated between a couple to explore topics like desire, devotion, surrender and bliss. Some of our teachers call this 'The Yoga of Intimacy' which beautifully encompasses the idea that your intimate life becomes your 'yoga' - your spiritual practice.
You've probably heard of the promise of tantric lovemaking - ecstatic bliss, extended full body and energy orgasms, psychedelic altered states, profound union.... All of this and more is possible when you have the right tools and perspectives.
We explore what is it to be truly intimate with another — to know your partner, and yourself beyond the masks and roles you wear each day.
We learn to be present with all that a relationship gifts us, and awaken to the aliveness pulsating between two people, moment by moment.
We learn to see contracted states and tensions not as problems but as gateways to deeper understanding, integration and evolution.
You just need the right tools, transmission and perspectives. We're here to give you that.
SOMATIC TANTRA & AUTHENTIC RELATING
This retreat integrates somatic and trauma-informed practices to be a nourishing, integrative yet transformational journey. The approach brings together timeless wisdom of the Tantric tradition with modern perspectives on nervous systems, attachment, trauma and embodiment.
Learn more about Somatic Tantra here
Our Tantric perspectives are based on a mix of NonDual Shaiva Tantra, Shakta Tantra and Buddhist Tantra (which has the most sexuality practices!) mixed with some general erotic mysticism and Sacred Sexuality.
Luna's book 'The Liberated Sensualist - The Modern Tantrika's Guide to Embodied Awakening' goes much deeper into what Tantra and Sacred Sexuality are, her lineage and approaches to the fusion of somatics and Tantra. It's a great way to get a feel for her work if you don't know her already.
Luna and Tristen also weave in Authentic Relating, a powerful, world-renouned practice that brings awakened perspectives to communication that helps couples to transform how they share their inner world.
LEARN TANTRA IN THAILAND
We'll be held at a private riverfront villa outside Chiang Mai — surrounded by lush trees and open green space where you'll have a beautiful nature immersion which will add to the rejuvenating quality and magic of the immersion. (Photos and more down the page!)
Thailand is an incredible country with so much culture, delicious food and natural beauty. North Thailand is famous for it's Buddhist culture and Temples, the abundance of hot springs and lush mountains, and the artisans.
You can fly directly to Chiang Mai or you can get the bus or train from Bangkok.
Learn from a real married couple with years of devoted practice & professional training
Luna and Tristen have been together for over 6 years now (married for over 2 years), and both were on this path with other partners before they met. They are deeply committed to this work, living and breathing it - letting their love be transformed by it year by year. They both also have professional training in Sacred Sexuality, facilitation, coaching, Authentic Relating, Breathwork and more.
Some teachers lean on personal experience alone, missing the nuances and wider view that comes with professional training. Some lean on training alone, yet do not fully embody and live this work. With Luna and Tristen, you're in great hands, with a couple who are both professional and deeply experienced through their own practice. You get their embodied transmission of secure, profound, soul-mate level love and their expert facilitation to support you journey.
They have been teaching couples work together for most of their relationship, and Luna was trained as a VITA Sex, Love and Relationship coach since 2019.
This is not your typical couples' getaway...
The Tantric Intimacy Retreat is for couples who want a deeper intimacy with each other. It blends therepeutic work and sacred intimacy work, so there is space to both process challenges in your relationship and learn skills for communication, attunement and sensitivity, as well as space to explore the limitless potential of your love through sensuality, play and eros.
This retreat is for couples ready to go DEEP.
But this depth doesn't require excessive catharsis or pushing, we take an approach that prioritizes nourishment and embodiment rather than pushing, where we learn to live and breathe this work so that it can integrate into daily life and invite you both to love more intentionally and devotionally.
Ready to go deeper with your partner?
This retreat is intentionally small — just 5 couples maximum — Offering personalised support and focus (rather than getting lost in a crowd of couples). This allows you and your partner to get more support for whatever is arising.
All genders and sexualities welcome. This retreat is inclusive for Queer/LGBT couples, polyamorous/ENM couples and people from various backgrounds. We aim to create a welcoming, inclusive space to learn and to embrace the unique way your love takes shape. There is no pushing of gender stereotypes or relating styles.
TESTIMONIAL
"The days I spent working with Luna and Tris was amazing.
They created an incredibly safe container for the group and myself to flourish and open, exploring topics that could be difficult or challenging to many.
I went with my partner, and I'm so glad I did. We journeyed into new levels of surrender to each other, creating more trust and deliciousness between both of us (YAY!). We had a very deep and connected relationship before we went, and this was truly an enhancer of this.
Not only do I feel safe to return and work with them again, I actively desire to see what else they create and enjoy their playfulness all over again."
— Ryan, 2022
RETREAT FOCUS
Sacred Relating
Exploring how your relationship can influence and amplify your spiritual journey. We'll explore practices that bring mindfulness, energy/subtle body work, deeper inquiry and an attitude of devotion to your relationship.
THE ART OF INTIMACY
Intimacy is not just through sexuality but through presence, vulnerability, sensitivity and truth. You'll learn how to hold deeper space for each other, how to transform emotions and challenges into love and how to connect deeply both in the physical and beyond the physical.
Ritual
Ritual allows us to go beyond the mind and into a more transpersonal experience. Ritual is a vital aspect of the Tantric and most spiritual traditions, where we evoke trance states, connect as a group and surrender to something beyond the individual self. Each night there will be a ritual which will bring together what we have been exploring together.
Sacred Eros
Learn Tantric lovemaking skills, sensual arts and how to ignite the spark in the bedroom no matter how many years go by. You'll learn how we can make love beyond the physical body through energetic penetration, breathwork techniques, polarity play and more. We bring in elements of sacred kink and power play to bring spice and variety, as well as slow-sex meditative practices.
None of these require being nude or in sexual intercourse in the workshop area - we practice with clothing on and the skills then can be practiced in private with your partner.
Conscious Communication
Learn how to share your truth, your needs and desires with clarity and compassion. Bringing together Authentic Relating, Non Violent Communication and the Yoga of Intimacy practices.
Partnered Meditation
How can we move beyond the sense of separation and into deep connection with others? Partnered meditations can be incredibly profound to invite us to go deeper into intimacy with life through other bodies, and challenge our stories, judgments and projections of others.

The Journey
Here is an overview of the themes for each day, taking you on a transformational journey of rebirth and liberation
Day 1 : Arrival
Wednesday December 9
INTENTIONAL RELATING
You arrive, you settle, orientation, and in the evening a delicious intention-setting ritual to drop you both into the container.
As you arrive you will connect to the sacred space we will be gathered in, start to get to know your fellow travellers and be welcomed with a ritual to set your 'Sankalpa' (intention) for the time together.
Day 2
Thursday December 10
Relating from Presence
The foundation of profound sacred love starts with depth of presence.
This day is the art of seeing and being seen, paired with deeper communication and couples meditation practices — bringing you both fully into the same room, heart, body and soul.
A lot of couples struggle to feel fully seen in their relationship — between the stresses of daily life and the numbing of screens and distraction, one or both of you can end up feeling half there, even when you're sharing the same space.
We redefine that connection and bring you back into the truth of each other, moment by moment.
Day 3
Friday December 11
LOVE THAT HEALS
Next we journey into love, trust and vulnerability...
We go deeper into love, trust and vulnerability — heart-awakening couples breathwork, healing through intimacy, devotion and worship.
We explore: How can our relationships become a space of deep healing, nourishment and transformation? How we can hold deeper and more profound space in our relationships for transformation, healing and loving more fully?
Together we breathe love into old wounds of separation and fear, discovering the art of being present and holding space for one another without the need to fix or change your partner.
True space-holding means seeing each other's multifaceted truth, moment by moment — beyond the projections and old stories that get in the way.
OUTING: We will go out for the afternoon to a hotspring and do a water-therapy style experience to support and hold your partner as they surrender.
Day 4
Saturday December 12
Shadow, Power and Polarity
Here, we dive into the shadow to alchemise
This day explores relational shadow work, power dynamics and polarity. Every relationship has it's shadows, power struggles and tensions, here we explore how to navigate them mindfully, playfully and effectively.
This is where transformation can happen in profound ways, and it can also be fun and a little kinky.
Here polarity is not about 'man=masculine, female=feminine' - that is old-paradigm and limiting your evolution. We explore our relationship to trust and surrender, power and submission, leading and following, control and flow. We challenge old patterns and open to more fluidity so we can create more variety and wholeness.
Day 5
Sunday December 13
Passionate Lovers
"Your sensuality is the gateway to your divinity"
We explore sacred sexuality, the yoga of desire, devotional intimacy and erotic energy play — the art of sexual yoga, harnessing erotic lifeforce energy and surrendering into the aliveness found between two bodies uniting.
Passion doesn't have to die out beyond the honeymoon phase — it's an energy you can learn to wield wisely, together, for years to come. Here you'll learn powerful practices for making love beyond the physical, bringing devotional touch to your intimacy practice and accessing entrancing, hypnotic states together.
Learn how to kindle the spark no matter how many years go by, and to bring yogic awareness and skill to your lovemaking. No nudity required.
Day 6
Monday December 14
Integration
Integration, and a beautiful re-commitment ritual to bring together everything we've journeyed through.
We come back into gratitude and celebration of what's been built — closing the space together with love and potency.
The final day has a morning session before you check out at 11am and head off into the world.

The Tantric Intimacy Retreat is for you if...
This retreat is for couples on the path of sacred relating, seeking to deepen your intimate connection, reignite passion, and cultivate a fulfilling, long-lasting erotic bond.
Whether you're navigating mismatched desires, longing to revitalise intimacy, or simply eager to explore new dimensions of pleasure and presence together, this retreat is crafted for you.
It doesn't matter if you've been together a year or fifty — these practices work regardless of how long you've been together.
- You're a couple looking to explore sacred intimacy to build a deeper and more spiritually nourishing relationship
- You have an open and curious mind, ready to try unconventional esoteric and holistic practices to find deeper connection and freedom
- You are interested in exploring your relationship to love, trust, surrender, desire and your bodies — together
- You're willing to look at your patterns, face discomfort and 'not knowing' as you open to learn new skills, rewire old patterns and shed old resentments, stories and behaviours that do not serve the evolution of your relationship. You aren't going to enter this container putting it all on your partner, you're open to taking responsibility for your part in the dynamics too.
- You have some experience with spirituality, wellness and embodied practice already - perhaps you've tried meditation, breathwork, ecstatic dance, somatics or other wellbeing practices before and now you're ready to explore this work in partnership. The more personal inner work you've done, the deeper the partnered work will go!
- You're ready to awaken to new realms of possibility in your relationship and step into a new chapter in love, sex and relating.
All Love That Liberates events are all queer-inclusive and we do not work with typical gender expectations. Same sex couples are welcome, trans people are welcome, kinksters and ENM people are welcome.
As with most retreats, this is a sober event and drugs/alcohol are not allowed during the retreat.
If you have special accessibility needs please let us know in your application and we will work to accommodate you.
Who this is not for:
While there are therapeutic elements in this work, it is not a replacement for couples therapy when there are more serious issues. If you or your partner have a lot of active trauma, unresolved trust breaches, an inability to manage anger or arguments, or untreated personality disorders, this is perhaps not the space for you right now.
- This is not suitable for couples who are right at the edge of breakup and are unable to open to touch or connection with each other. If your relationship is in serious struggle, we recommend couples therapy or potentially some additional sessions with Luna before the live retreat. While there is space to work on some challenges, if you're in near constant triggers with each other, the retreat flow might not be suited and could even escalate the challenges. It's more designed for couples looking to lean into deeper love and intimate expansion, not to repair unhealed wounds.
- This is not recommended for couples who are extremely private and would not feel comfortable being in a shared space with other couples who are touching, going through emotional processes or kissing. While you do not have to do anything you're not comfortable with, and you can practice in your room if you really need to, the best support for the journey will come from a willingness to practice in the shared space (no sex or nudity will happen in the space, all practices clothed)
- Anyone with an issue sharing space or being respectful with non-binary, queer or trans humans.
- People who have severe active trauma, psychosis, narcissism or are medicated for mental health disorders (bipolar, BPD, PTSD etc). Please connect with us first if you are unsure if it's the right place for you and your current situation.
