LoversLand 

A Tantrik laboratory of Erotic Aliveness & spiritual devotion

An Immersion into the Mysteries
of S3xuality, Spirituality and Yoga 


with Valentina Leo

​​

AFTER A 2 YEARS PAUSE THE LOVER'S TRAINING IS BACK !

"There are few offerings in the whole wide world that delivers so much life in such a short span of time.

Valentina gives all of herself to make one feel all of oneself, and I was infected forever.

Money comes and goes, but this experience still resonates with me many years later.

I love you Valentina." - Brandon Jones-

After over 2 decades of teaching, I finally surrendered to my innate urge to move in circles.
I teach about the Effervescent Cyclical Roundness of Reality-

the pathless path of Non-Dual Tantra.

Without a path, the Training can only express as an actual INITIATION.

Everything is told at the beginning, there is no linear progression.


Our deepest desires are the golden threads to know ourselves as a living EXPERIENCE.

This is the Yoga of Naked Awareness.

When we simply become Empty Space and Flowing Breath.

True knowing starts in the body.

Then it moves from the Heart to the Head...and only then become Wisdom.

Intelligence without heart-centered body wisdom is pretty useless if we want to create communities

of expansive living and loving.

It’s this True Knowing that transforms our mere living into a Loving Celebration of the Eternal Self.

 

Tantra will always meet you in the perfection of where you are at.

There are no levels. There is No struggle.

No striving. No measurements. Enlightenment is never a goal.

We culture deep relaxation of the body-mind beyond spiritual fantasies and religious romances.

Tantra never changes, You do.

When your practice becomes empty of spiritual concepts and clever ideas you can finally embrace this

ever-present moment with the erotic awareness that is gushing forth through you. 

 As you. Because of you. In spite of you. Meditating you. Liberating you.

Forever birthed from your heart, passionately longing to just be YOU .

 

It's a love affair with Truth.

"TO BE LIVING LIKE AN ABSOLUTE LOVER IN ORDINARY LIFE WILL GENERATE CONTINUOUS AND RELENTLESS WONDERMENT, WHICH IS THE VERY SUBSTANCE OF AWAKENING."  Valentina Leo 

​​✶ THE PRACTICES 

 TRADITIONAL TANTRA YOGA 

Rooted in the ancient wisdom of the Vedas and the healing science of Ayurveda,

this āsanas practice will be the container for all the other practices.

Focused on intrinsic relaxation of the physical body and the conscious mind, this sequence

will meditate you into the Deepest Essence of your Being, where True Self can be revealed.

From this space of infinite stillness authentic expression can be found.
(This practice is accessible to all ages and levels of fitness)


 

 TANDAVA 

A Traditional Tantric Practice from the Kaula Tradition of Kashmir,

Tandava is the oldest form of yoga known to us.

Often depicted in the traditional iconography of northern India, Kashmir and Tibet,

Tandava is a very slow, mystical dance that leads to the perception of the Cosmic Body

and Attunement to our Infinite Nature. As a traditional practice of Totality,

Tandava can indeed catalyze the experience of Spiritual Awakening.

 

 THE YOGA OF TOUCH 

The Sacred Art of Kashmiri massage - is a Traditional Meditation practice

from the Kaula Tradition of Kashmir, that uses touch work as a tool to understand the SELF

as Empty Space and Absolute Bliss.

This is an expanded progression of the practice of Tandava,

and has the ability to profoundly nourish our nervous system,

to restore our innate sense of belonging and to reset our connection to life at large

and to finally receive our body as an expression of Divine Celebration. Our birth right.
(We will be working in pairs and some levels of nudity will be required.

Your limits and your availability will be highly respected. Your spontaneity is invited.)

 

 BLISSDANCE 

This  practice is a Spontaneous Harmonious movement of the body

when the body is in an Authentic space of Relaxation as it meets Another.

Then, like in True Lovemaking, the meeting with the other is nothing else than the meeting with our-own-self.
The Sacred Self: an Eternal Still Centre in Movement. Bliss.


 

 SILENCE 

the Infinite quietude of the land leads effortlessly toward the infinite silence of the Self.

We will spend mealtimes in ritualistic silence, allowing for the inner quiet to reveal.

✶ YOUR GUIDE 

Internationally praised teacher of Erotic Wisdom, Valentina Leo has been an explorer of the Tantric Realms for over 20 years, devoted to the teaching and learning of the tantrik current of the Erotic Mysticism of Shaiva tantra. 

 

Uncensored and untamed, she teaches the Yoga of  Unbounded Freedom and Mystical Union with the vast Emptiness of pure Space.​ She is known for her honesty, sense of humour and the lightness she infuses in the transmission of deep teachings. She is a true Dakini of the Heart and a catalyser for spiritual arousal and erotic awakenings. Probably one of the most embodied teacher of the feminine tantrik current alive on the planet today. Working with her will ask everything of you.

Valentina was born in Italy in 1970 and moved to Cape Town in 1997

where she still lives (in between her travels )with her 16yrs old daughter, Luna. 

She cherish howling at the Moon, sculpting deranged cats, and hopes one day to make a living out of late sleeping.

 

“ I was made in Italy at the dawn of the Seventies - definitely made for untidy rooms and rumpled beds. I have always questioned the answers. I have travelled a lot, experienced a lot and tried all that I could! I have lived in caves, ashrams and apartments. I engaged in mystic conversations with wandering Gurus and drank enlightening teas with silent Sadhus. I have sung the endless heart song with giggling Shamans and laughed at cosmic jokes with invisible friends. I have travelled Africa barefoot and Europe on high heels. I have made love over cremation grounds and romanced the Cosmos- made love, literally, with the stars and the planets! I have danced till the early colours of the morning and counted the million stars in the sleepless nights of the darkest hour of self doubt. I have found myself on all four, on the floor of my bedroom, throwing up a lifetime of emotional toxins and realized much later that this was the awakening experience… I have explored all kind of therapies, modalities, meditations and movement practices, healed traumas, danced the divine ecstasy, the shadow , the inertia, the chaos …the Cosmic Drama, before the

Endless Cosmic Orgasm. Today I am Dakini – a Skydancer.

I surrender my Divine Humanity to Existence, to be seduced by my true Form."-
