HOW IT ALL STARTED

Initiated by Riihannon Wilde in 2020, The de-armoruing trainings & The Tantric Sexology Embdodiment educations is slowly growing into a movement of people that want to lead by example, through their aligned action and embodied experience, and support human evolution in the challenges the world is facing today.

Today

Today our De-armouring trainings and Tantric Sexology is mainly a result of the coming together of Riihannon Wilde, Celestine Andersen, Mathijs Mulder-Barge and Jeroen Cops. and a highly experienced team of guest teachers and assistants.
Together Riihannon, Jeroen, Celestine & Mathijs have 65 years of experience in the field and they dedicate themselves to lead and share their passion and lived experience for the benefit of all. With being a result of their embodied experience, they weaves together their combined lived experience in the realm of trauma awareness, classical- and neo tantra, somatic psychotherapy, couples work, de-armouring, bodywork, neurosceince, tantric sexology and more. In the educations, their experience is supplemented by books written by experts in the field as well as professional sessions with experienced practitioners.

What makes our Academy stand out from many other educations
One of them is our holistic and trauma-informed approach, which finds it foundation in the three pillars of embodied experience, science, and spiritual wisdom. In our opinion, there is not one contemplative tradition, philosophy or science that holds the full truth. They all represent different flavours of the same universal truth. As well as our mission to bring a much higer level of integrity into the field.

What also use our team dynamic to eradicate blindspots, shadows and at all times allow ourselves to receive feedback. This is our way of making sure that we are creating a healthy field and community.

During the educations and trainings, we will present different teachings and methods to you, so that you can experience what aligns with you and deepen your professional expertise. While bringing a lot of professional experience and framework we focus on bringing our student home into their own power, wisdom, alignment and essence rather than applying our truth on to them.

Ethics

A HOLISTIC PERSPECTIVE

The essence of all existence is consciousness and through that root, everything is connected. We approach life and human beings from this perspective. This means we acknowledge all aspects of life as an expression of the devine, the dark and the light. A tantric sexology practitioner is open to all parts of existence and our being.

SOMATIC GUIDANCE & WHOLENESS

We believe everyone is whole and powerful. Therefore we teach you to guide clients into their own wisdom and power rather than giving advice or coaching or being the "healer,or saviour". We teach you how to guide clients somatically and from non-interference with a solid tool box as your foundation.

OUR
PRINCIPLES

CONSCIOUSNESS HAS NO JUDGEMENT

What this means is that there is no right or wrong, there are only consequenses. The discernment of right and wrong is seen as a mental process. We try not to judge in terms of right or wrong, rather we look at an individual's unique timeline and see what is in alignment in the moment. There is a Buddhist saying ‘as many monks as many paths’, which fits perfectly in this philosophy.

LIFE IS A DANCE BETWEEN POLARITIES

We believe that in order to embody your full potential it is important to explore the masculine and feminine polarity in your being. The first step from essence is masculine and feminine or ‘shiva’ or ‘shakti’ as it is called in some tantric traditions. During the education we will invite and challenge you to stretch yourself in both directions.

AS ABOVE, SO BELOW

This principle embodies the truth that there is always a correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of being and life. What happens on one plane of existance has its impact on all planes. The micro and the macro are constantly connected with eachother. The body, for example, reflects what is alive on an emotional, mental and spiritual level. Another example is that what happens in ourselves is a reflection of what happens in the world.

SHARING FROM AN AUTHENTIC PLACE & EMBODIED EXPERIENCE

There are so many schools, teachings, theories and systems in the world. Because of internet they are more easily accesible then ever. We want to remind you that your experience is what matters most. We invite you to question us and everything you read. Explore what feels right to you and what is in alignment with your truth. Disagree, be sceptic and curious. Explore the teachings and methods yourself, so you can find out what works for you. It is important to be authentic in what you share and that you share only what you have lived yourself. This is how you become able to embody your essence and share it with the world.

SEXUAL ENERGY AS A FUEL FOR MANIFESTING YOUR PURPOSE

In Tantra sexual energy is recognised as a gateway to different states of consciousness, eventually even a way to reach union with the divine. By building up our sexual energy (for instance by refraining from peak orgasms) and learning how to direct the energy it can become a very powerful tool for health, healing, deconditioning of limiting beliefs and patterns that do not serve anymore. In this way sexual energy is used for personal and spiritual growth and manifesting a life that is alinged with your essence. Recognising sexual energy in this way turns sexuality in a genuine spiritual practice.

WE ARE TRAUMA-INFORMED

It is our opinion that when working in the field of de-armoruing, tantra and sexuality it is essential to have an understanding of trauma and the nervous system. Given the amount of people in the world that have experienced (sexual) trauma, as a de-armoruing practitoner or tantric sexologist, we need to be able to recognise signs of trauma response and know how to help our clients regulate, so that we can serve them best. If we don’t the sessions will be less effective or risk re-traumatising someone.

HOW IS OUR EDUCATION ROOTED IN TANTRA

Tantra is a rich spiritual philosophy which has roots going back thousands of years and branches that reach across many asian countries and cultures. Since reaching the west it has transformed even more with the upcoming of neo-tantra. Our Tantric Sexology education is not an in depth tantra education, there wouldn’t be enough time to do it justice. However, the fundament of Tantric Sexology is rooted in tantric & neo tantric principles like: a holistic perspective, polarity, the principle of correspondence and recognising sexual energy as life force. As an education we aspire to give you a solid understanding and experience of these principles, so that you can apply these in your personal and professional life in a modern world.

WE USE SCIENTIFIC INSIGHTS FOR STRUCTURE & SAFETY

Just as Tantric Sexology is not an in depth tantra education, it is also not an in depth education in sexology. We acknowledge the contribution science, in the form of psycotherapy, psychology, neuroscience, epigenetics and sexology have made in navigating the landscape of the personality and opening to deeper layers of authenticity. We use the insights, models and techniques created in these fields as tools to give structure and safety so that the necessery deconditioning can take place for us and our clients to embody our authentic expression of self. There are different types of sexologists, ranging from clinical sexologists to sexological bodyworkers. On this spectrum we position ourselves in the area of sexological bodywork as we use talk, movement, breath and touch-based approaches to help our clients.

THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS

Our Academy present a new paradigm of educations and trainings in the realm of de-armoruing, Tantra and sexuality. We believe in the transformative power of De-armoruing, Tantra and sexuality for deep healing, rewiring, and pleasure. However, we recognize the potential risks when therapists lack relevant professional embodied experience or awareness - it can (re)traumatize and cause harm. Or when a professional lacks embodied experience or somatic sensitivity. Our mission is clear: to bring more integrity into this field and fill the gap.

Unlike many de-armoruing, sexologist, tantra and trauma-informed educations that certify anyone attending, we've chosen a different path. We believe that certification should reflect more than just attendance - it should mirror a commitment to quality, embodied experience, and professionalism.
