Tantra Date: a meeting that begins on a deeper level

A different way of meeting people: less judgement, more presence, genuine encounters and human warmth.

Tantra Date is a playful, experiential evening for singles who want to step away from everyday routines, slow down and feel what it is like to connect without the usual expectations. It is not speed dating or simply an evening of conversation. You meet others through presence, eye contact, breathing, movement, gentle touch and heartfelt conversation.

The evening starts in a safe, supportive setting where you are welcome as you are. Through simple guided exercises you practise simply being present, noticing your breath, bodily sensations and emotions, and letting encounters unfold naturally.

You can take away:

1. a different way of meeting people, even without knowing what to say

2. a deeper connection with yourself

3. more confidence and ease in social situations

4. an experience of gentleness and conscious touch, always by mutual agreement

5. more meaningful conversations and new connections

6. playfulness, movement and joy

Every participant decides how much to take part. You can opt out of any exercise or stop at any time, and nobody has to justify their choices. Blindfolds are used in only a small part of the guided experience, and you can choose not to wear one. You do not need to be experienced, confident or extroverted; curiosity is enough.

The evening suits you if you want to meet people differently, long for genuine connection, want to explore your comfort in social situations, are open to guided breathing and presence exercises, or are simply curious.
