Surrender & Ravishment — A Tantric Lens on Power Play — Online Event

$21.00

Sunday 11th October, 7pm GMT

Trust, attunement and what it takes to truly let go.

Ravishment and surrender are two sides of the same erotic coin. One person is given the freedom to follow their desire with confidence and direction, while the other consciously relinquishes control and allows themselves to become more deeply absorbed in their body, their partner and the experience.

This workshop explores surrender and ravishment through a tantric and somatic lens: how partners create the trust required to let go, how the person leading remains attuned while following their own desire, and why both sides require considerably more skill than simply adopting a dominant or submissive role.

Topics include:

  • The erotic polarity between surrender and ravishment
  • Surrender as consciously relinquishing control rather than simply submission
  • Ravishment as presence, desire and direction rather than aggression
  • Why surrender requires the nervous system to experience safety and arousal simultaneously
  • Developing the self-trust to communicate your experience authentically
  • Attunement to breath, tension, expression and body language
  • Recognising checking out, bracing, unease and performed pleasure
  • Staying attuned to a partner while remaining connected to your own desire
  • Creating clear boundaries before play without attempting to predict every desire in advance
  • Allowing spontaneity and intensity within an agreed framework
  • Communication and repair when something does not land as intended
  • Practical embodiment, attunement and expression exercises for both sides of the dynamic

Rather than treating surrender as passivity or ravishment as simply taking control, this workshop looks at the relationship between desire, trust and attunement that allows both people to move beyond performance and become more fully absorbed in the experience.

About Laura

Laura is a certified Tao Tantric Facilitator specialising in Sacred Femininity practices. She trained in 2020, assisted in 2021, and co-taught in 2023 alongside Shashi Solluna and Minke De Vos. Her lineage sits within the tradition of Osho, Margot Anand, Sarita (Neo-Tantra Osho) and Mantak Chia (Universal Healing Tao).

She is dedicated to helping women expand their capacity for pleasure by working directly with the body — through breath, movement and sound — rather than around it. Her own path to this work came through years of somatic therapy and tantric training, and the realisation that our capacity to feel pleasure and our capacity to feel pain are, in the end, the same capacity. Learning to be with both, rather than avoid either, is at the heart of how she now holds space for others.

Laura completed the Trauma Training for Tantra Professionals, certified by Tantra Alliance, in 2023, and has been a faculty member of the Mysteryschool Awaken As Love since summer 2022.

She brings all of this into the room she holds — for every woman brave enough to increase her capacity to feel, guided by breath, movement and sound. It's an epic journey into aliveness.

About the Series

Much of what exists around kink focuses on technique or performance. What’s often missing is a deeper understanding of why we want what we want, how those desires take shape, and how they can be expressed in a way that feels considered and connected.

These sessions are designed to slow that down. To look at desire, power, fantasy, and connection through a more thoughtful lens, bringing together psychological insight, embodied awareness, and real conversation.

It’s about understanding yourself more clearly, and creating space for a kind of intimacy that feels intentional and grounded.
