Anyone looking for energy work will soon come across the offerings from the tantric tradition. This supply mainly consists of women who provide treatments to men and men who provide treatments to women. Or they focus on hetero couples. Many men prefer energy work with another man and thus end up with Tijs Breuer. Tijs makes no distinction, it does not matter whether you identify yourself as gay, bisexual, straight, transgender or as a non-binary person. Tantric work is valuable for every gender and every orientation and Tijs welcomes everyone.
When experiencing the flow of life energy, some still assume that this energy always flows from men to women. This is an outdated view, in which the ancient tantric texts have been misinterpreted. Energy exchange takes place everywhere. Each person has both masculine (giving) and feminine (receiving) energy. So you can just as well receive treatment from a woman, a man, transgender or a non-binary person.
GAY-TANTRA® is also a specific form of Tantra, specially developed for this purpose by Armin Heining. Gay men or men with bisexual feelings have specific concerns and needs. With these Tantra treatments there is plenty of room to allow everything in yourself and to be yourself completely. A bridge is built between spirituality and sexuality, which creates a feeling of liberation.
Acceptance of gay men in a hetero-normative environment
Although homosexuality is fully accepted in our society, you sometimes see certain dogmas about masculinity and femininity emerge, which make many gay men feel unwelcome in personal development groups. Although Margot Anand's movement was non-conformist from the start, there appeared to be no place in these groups for men who are attracted to other men. While energy exchange with someone of the same sex has never been a problem in tantric traditions. For that reason, Armin Heining started GAY-TANTRA® in 1992 as a response to this. GAY-TANTRA® is a translation of the SkyDancing-Tantra® method to the world of loving men of the same sex.
Be happy SkyDancing-Tantra® insights have changed over the years. “Because many people within our movement are looking for a better sexuality or relationship with each other, the misunderstanding has arisen that the union between Energy and Consciousness must always take place through a ritual meditation between a woman and a man. This is not true and enlightenment may as well be achieved simply through meditation with yourself or with someone of the same sex. For example, when you dive deep into the rising and shivering feeling of longing or joy. Or when you discover the infinite space that lies between the inhalation and the exhalation.”
Tijs Breuer is a certified GAY-TANTRA® energy masseur and extacy masseur. He does not distance himself from other forms of Tantra, but integrates different styles and methods of breath and energy work to suit your needs. Because ecstasy and enlightenment go beyond orientations and preferences. The ancient traditions and teachings from tantra are a beautiful source of inspiration for expanding your consciousness and strengthening your life energy. But they should never be used to justify any relational or sexual preference, orientation or behavior. I therefore invite you to look beyond your (gay) identity.
