Become a great lover.
Your best years as an ecstatic lover are ahead.
Learn full-body orgasm, how to attune to your partner's body, and how to direct your sexual energy. Meet your inner feminine and become a man your partner is drawn to.
You've felt it.
A body that comes alive. A connection that opens. A glimpse of ecstasy. And something in you says: there is more for me.
Maybe a relationship ended and left you open and raw. Maybe you met someone new, or you stayed with your partner through a hard time, and you can feel the same old pattern still affecting you.
Maybe you spent years being the good one, pleasing and easy, wanting to be accepted, while parts of you were held back and never expressed. Perhaps you've even become bitter or resentful.
A workshop can open a door. Living what you found there, in your body, your relationships and your work, takes a process built around you. That's what this mentorship is about.
It's not a crisis. It's a call.
Most people call it a midlife crisis. I call it the moment your life is asking you for more.
Maybe you've started reading about Tantra and sacred sexuality and sensed there's another way to be a man. The restlessness isn't a sign that something is wrong with you. It's an opening, and the best moment you'll get to build the man you actually want to be. The same call may be asking for more in your work, in the dream you're moving toward.
You don't need many lovers or a sexual history that proves anything. You need guidance and the courage to look underneath.
You were sold the wrong problem.
The ads say the issue is your size, your stamina, the move you haven't learned. They profit from making you feel: I'm not enough.
Look at what women actually report. Research suggests that attentiveness to a partner's experience promotes greater satisfaction for both partners.
of husbands in one newlywed study got it wrong about whether their wife had an orgasm. The gap isn't technique. It's attunement: listening to her body, instead of assuming you know.1
Safety, so she can let go. Presence, so you are here with her. Containment, so you can hold her feelings because you hold yours.
Technique is real, and it comes last.
Presence is attunement.
Everyone says "be present." What it means is to be in the situation, in your body and in hers, and not in your head.
It's deep listening to your partner's body. Three things get in the way:
Solving. Men are great problem solvers, and a body is not a problem to fix.
Chasing your own desire, and how to get it.
Imagining things about her experience that aren't true, instead of asking.
Each one is a one-sided approach to something that is a conversation: a conversation between bodies, without words. What blocks learning most is being sure you already know.
The more you share in that conversation, the deeper the connection goes, until it reaches the realm of prayer and devotion. I teach you to turn that moment into an alive meditation: your attention and attunement move out of your head and into your body and hers. Then both sexual energies multiply each other.
Your sexual energy is a source.
Many men never learn that sexual energy can be cultivated and directed, not only released.
I teach you to cultivate it, to spread it through your whole body, to direct it, and to have a real choice around ejaculation. In my experience it brings more vitality and creativity, and it changes your approach to sexuality altogether.
I've been where you are.
I met my wife when we were both 20. For twenty years we built a life together: two children, and a dance company we created side by side.
But I was not fully there. Mostly I was avoiding my own emotions, and I did it through work. Workaholism is maybe the least destructive of addictions, but it still meant I wasn't present.
Then she fell in love with someone else and ended our relationship. For about six months I was in the lowest place I've known, and I felt that something was wrong with me. I got the support I needed: treatment, therapy, and people who held me while I built myself up again.
One day I saw an ad for a Tantra workshop and decided to go the next day. I didn't know why. It was a clear yes.
Read the rest of my story
I found that the principles of Tantra are exactly like the art of dance, yet not for a performance on stage, but for real life. And I found parts of myself I had left behind. When we met I was a good boy, pleasing her and pleasing others, wanting to be accepted. In Tantra I met my wild side and the mature man in me. They had been there all along, but subconsciously I had rejected them.
Accepting and integrating them was the transformation that allowed me to fully accept myself, including my needs and desires as something natural. I learned that I am loved as I am, without needing to do something to deserve love.
That supported me in letting go of the hidden frustration and resentment I had carried toward the outside, at times unknowingly. I became truly grateful for my life.
A close friend who stood by me through it all told me, "You wanted this." It took years of inner work to understand him. Part of me had wanted to change and grow up as a man, and I hadn't known it. What looked like a crisis was a call to wake up.
Pain was a great teacher. It showed me that I needed to slow down, open up, and accept my deeper parts.
My body opened too. I discovered more sensation and sensitivity within it, and by following those sensations I found ecstatic moments. As my vibration changed, I began to meet ecstatic, mature women who matched it.
I began teaching in 2015 because I wanted to pass on what I had learned. It is humbling and beautiful to see what it does for people. I've worked with over 1,000 people in workshops and retreats.
In 2019 I began mentoring one-to-one, and I noticed that more men were coming to me, many of them in their next round: after a breakup, with a new partner, or after staying and working through a hard time. So I created this program for them: a mentorship where what men experience in a retreat becomes part of their daily life.
"We are all connected in love to each other."
How it unfolds.
Eight online meetings of 90 to 120 minutes, then three intensive days in person, over six to seven months. It's tailor-made: I walk each man a little differently, and the flow and expansion work usually begins by the third or fourth meeting.
Reflection & Growth
You see yourself clearly. You meet your shadow, what you've suppressed and never expressed, and stop being run by it. You also learn a practice to reach your energetic and emotional body, so you can feel what's alive in you and stay with it.
Vibration Flow Creation
You build the new man: more sensitive, more independent, more alive in your body, and no longer dependent on a partner to feel good. You learn a practice to cultivate your sexual energy, and another to spread it throughout your own body.
You connect with your inner feminine, the receptive, feeling, sensual side of you, so you become more whole, not less of a man.
Into the body
Three days of embodied work, intensive coaching and ritual, in Portugal or at your location. A ritual that guides you to your inner power and inner source.
Touch is always your choice. If you'd rather work without it, we use other practices. Nothing happens without your clear consent, and everything is for you and your path.
Takes place about two-thirds of the way through the journey.
Woven through all of it: my support between the meetings, as what you learn meets your real life. That is the heart of the mentorship.
The result: a man who is confident without performing, sensitive without losing his strength, and desired because he is present.
You're not doing this alone.
Breakthroughs happen in the sessions. Real change happens between them, when what you learned meets the reality of your life: your work, your children, your partner.
That's where it gets challenging, and that's where I'm with you. You send me what happened, and I help you see how it connects to what we worked on and catch the shadow aspects you're only starting to sense. That is the heart of this mentorship. Included throughout the program, plus a follow-up call two months after you complete the journey:
An open line to me on WhatsApp
Message me what happens in your life: at work, with your family, in your love life. Challenges and celebrations. The shadows that are starting to come into consciousness. I reflect it back and support you in linking and integrating the parts that are ready to show themselves. I reply within a few hours, never longer than 24.
Books chosen for you
Study that builds a framework of understanding, to help you aim your intention and to give a foundation to the embodiment work that you feel more in the body. Tailored to the unique shape of your own challenges, not one size fits all.
Practices and assignments

In their words.
"I was very curious to enter the Awakening to Passion mentorship with Ananda. My initial aim was to learn about full body vibrations. But what I received was much more. I learned to dive deep into surrender and expanding my feminine energy. I allowed myself to trust Ananda fully. He supported me with loving presence. … These six months of regular meetings, in-person rituals, meditation, and emotional body yoga changed my self-awareness, my sensations and my experience of pleasure."
"Ananda is one of the key persons in my life for resolving relationship blockages. In his workshops I learned to be content with relationships like never before. I came from a macho alpha male attitude and learned to be open, vulnerable and free… to show the true me. What a liberation to be with someone without any need to hide something."
"Your energy saw through my pain. You knew what I needed to do to heal. Your presence was a blessing for me."
"Ananda helped me to become a better friend for myself. Sweet, gentle, loving — yet still so wild and so much fun."
