What is Tantra?
Many think of Tantra as a way to enhance their sexuality. While that is an amazing benefit of practicing Tantra, that’s only part of the picture.
Tantra isn’t just a practice. It is method of spiritual advancement as derived from a sophisticated lineage of yogic masters of the ancient world. These methods enable us to cultivate the energy of our bodies (physical, energetic), mind and soul, so we can blossom into our authentic natures. By doing so, we can more joyfully and skillfully engage in our contemporary world. By recognizing our power within the quantum field of love and light, and the influences we can have within it, we can master positive change in our own lives and of the world. The ego mind believes having its desires fulfilled will bring happiness but that is seldom true. The Soul lives in bliss. By identifying more and more with your divine nature, you release your desires and discover who you truly are.

About Your Facilitators:
Amanda Ananda’s Bio:
Amanda Ananda is an International Tantric Facilitator and Domestic Goddess of two outrageous boys.
Amanda has a diverse Tantrica background that allows for a unique, blissful and radiant experience to unfold in her workshops, online courses and sessions. She has studied with The School of Tribal Tantra based on Kashmir Shaivism and Shamanic Ritual, Ipsalu Tantra – Kriya Yoga based on Osho’s dynamic teachings, and Babaji Nagaraj’s esoteric Cobra Breath Technique and Urban Tantra combining modern tantric philosophy with conscious kink.
Amanda is a life-long student and immerses herself in the sacred teachings from the Temple of Isis and The Rose Lineage. She is currently diving deep into Somatic Experiencing Trauma Healing and learning to incorporate scientific knowledge about our miraculous nervous systems with the ancient wisdom of Tantra. Amanda encourages everyone to make joyful well-being their first priority and to live blissfully in this intense world by gently taking care of self. Her techniques will help you become fully embodied with simple-yet-profound tools you can apply in your daily life.
Working with Amanda will assist you to clear what blocks you from your true light, guiding you in opening up to the miracle of life, and embracing the bubble of “Ananda” (or, in English, Bliss!) that is constantly accessible to us all. She is tremendously enthusiastic and humbled to share these teachings with the wonderful souls who say ‘HEAVEN’S YES’ to time spent with her.
You can follow her at Amanda Ananda on Facebook or @thetantricmama on Instagram. Go to

Rob:
Rob Krause, has been practicing, yoga, meditation and tantra for thirty years. After completing yoga teacher training in Goa he was introduced to the practices of neo-Tantra in Pune India. He continued his path studying tantra through Margot Anand’s SkyDancing School, Barbara Carrellas’ Urban Tantra, The Body Electric School, and over the last several years through the teachings of Hareesh in the Tantra Illuminated School he has been studying traditional non-dualistic Shaivist Tantra. Rob also is certified in Sex Therapy through the California Institute of Integral Studies.
Tantra is a spiritual path of embracing the fullness of life with growing awareness and joy. Finding areas where we are blocked or closed off to what is present and learning skillful practices to safely open is the path of bringing tantra into one’s life.
Drawing upon traditional and contemporary Tantric teachings and practices, we will create a safe and sacred space for participants to explore pleasure, release emotional blockages, and cultivate a sense of self-love. Through a combination of meditation, breathwork, movement, and energy healing techniques together we will create a profound journey of personal growth and transformation.
It is the realization of an intention set years ago to bring the teachings of tantra, yoga, meditation and sacred medicine to people in groups as here at Centered. It is a blessing to do so with Amanda Ananda and to support her and be supported by her on this joyful path.
