Shakti Sādhana Retreat
August 24 - 30, 2026 | Nass Valley, Northern BC, Canada
Enter the Heart of Tantra through Practice, Not Theory
Tantra isn’t something you learn from a book or a screen. It is lived, breathed, and felt in the body. It’s the smell of smoke on your clothes after a fire ceremony, the vibration of mantra resonating through your chest, the sight of a yantra slowly taking form under your hands.
The Shakti Sādhana Retreat is a 7-day immersion into the living, breathing world of traditional Tantric practice. This is not a retreat for dabbling—it is a call to those ready to step deeply into devotion, subtle energetics, and embodied ritual.
What to Expect
This retreat is both participatory and, by invitation, initiatory:
- For retreat guests: You’ll be immersed in daily practices—mantra japa, fire ceremony (yajña), pūjā, yantra building, and guided ritual experiences—that enliven the body, clear stagnant energy, and deepen connection with Shakti.
- For initiates (invite-only): You’ll not only participate, but also begin to learn how to carry out these rituals yourself—how to hold the mantra, build the yantra, prepare offerings, and tend the sacred fire.
Both paths are honored, and both lead into the heart of experiential Tantra.
Benefits
While every journey is unique, many participants experience:
- A more embodied, lived understanding of Tantra
- Revitalization of body, mind, and energetic system
- A loosening or clearing of inner blockages
- A deeper connection with Devī, the Divine Mother
- The first stirrings of kundalinī awakening
- A profound sense of belonging among fellow sādhaks
Why In Person?
We can learn concepts online—but Tantra is experiential.
You cannot understand yajña until you’ve placed samagri offerings into the fire.
You cannot know the yantra until you’ve carved and painted its lines yourself.
You cannot taste the resonance of mantra until it’s lived on your lips in the company of others devoted to the same truth.
This retreat offers what books and screens cannot: living practice in sacred community, body to body, breath to breath, mantra to mantra.
Who It’s For
- Practitioners with some background in yoga, meditation, or Tantra who feel ready to enter the world of subtle energetics and devotion
- Experienced seekers wanting to go beyond intellectual understanding and into lived practice
- Those drawn to fire, ritual, mantra, and the living presence of Shakti
This is not a beginner retreat for those needing everything explained through rational or purely tangible frameworks. It’s for those willing to step into mystery and allow practice itself to reveal truth.
The Setting
Held in the sacred Nass Valley of Northern British Columbia, this retreat is nestled among ancient forests, mountains, and rivers—a powerful container for spiritual work. In August, the land is alive with wild beauty, spaciousness, and quiet.
Contribution
This retreat is kept intentionally small and simple. Your contribution helps cover the costs of teachings, shared living, and the home we’ll gather in together.
This supports the daily teachings, guided meditations, open dialogues, retreat coordination and administration, retreat supplies, and the overall holding of the retreat container.

A Note on Community
At its heart, this retreat is about sangha—a circle of practitioners coming together in love of truth. To sit by the fire, to chant side by side, to bow before the altar of the Divine Mother together—this shared field magnifies what is possible for each of us individually.
