Marije Klumpes

‘Tantra means a lot to me. I have come home to myself. That may sound vague, but for me it is very down to earth. And at the same time grand.

Tantra taught me that real contact is possible, even when it is difficult or tense. In my sessions you will be given space for everything that is there – with love, honesty and presence.

I believe in a solid foundation: a safe place where you can sink in and meet each other on a deep level.

This is the work that makes my heart overflow.’

Marije's story

‘I spent a large part of my life doing what I thought was meant to be. In doing so, I was fighting with myself. Parts of me were not welcome; I kept them hidden from myself and others. I never felt enough, no matter how hard I tried.

In Tantra, the greatest lesson is saying yes to everything I experience. Yes to life. That also means saying yes to my love, zest for life, energy, greed. And yes to my no, or your no. To my hate and my pain.

Not easy feelings to be with.

But guess what?
When I move toward them, instead of fighting them, when I give my heart and body the space to feel everything – I become softer, kinder, fuller, more alive and real than I ever imagined.’
