Meet the Shakti Tantra Team

About the Shakti Team, their teachings and experience

The ethos of  Shakti Tantra is to provide experiences and teachings that can help us find contentment, inner joy, delight, innocence and aliveness. When our illusions, confusions, doubts, denials and unworthiness are lifted, there lies our ecstatic nature, our essential being.

Our society does not encourage these states of love, beauty, joy & peace. We long for these qualities and out of our grief and longing we armour ourselves and get on with what we are encouraged to do, which is building our materialistic world, as though this itself was compensation for true pleasure.

Our anti ecstatic society promotes states of guilt, shame and judgement in which the split between heart and sex, the lack of honour around our sexuality, means that we become less than whole. Shakti Tantra’s purpose is to help heal the shame and guilt around our sexuality and to help us treat our bodies with love and respect. When we move to a place of seeing our sexuality as sacred, we can touch base with our ecstatic nature that is full of beauty.

The content of the workshops includes movement, active meditations, tantric structures and rituals and shamanic exercises – everything is an invitation.

Back in 2001 Sue Newswome helped for birth Shakti Tantra with Hilly Spenceley.  She worked with us for many years and here we pay a little tribute to this amazing woman
