Tantric Yoga and Massage Retreat for Men

About this event

Would you like to reconnect with yourself, with other men, and with nature?

During this 3-day retreat, you are invited into a space of presence, exploration, and deep relaxation, set in the beautiful BlueWoods Inspiration House in the heart of the Van Gogh National Park, near Boxtel.
This long weekend is an invitation to slow down, to soften, and to gently let go of the rhythms and pressures of daily life.

Christian and Tijs welcome you to a clothing-optional retreat for men — a space where you can come home to your body and your inner nature. Through yoga, massage, connecting and sharing, you are invited to explore new layers of yourself, with curiosity and kindness. Throughout the weekend, you will be nourished with mindful yoga practices and guided into the art of giving and receiving soothing, sensual massage.

What will we do?
Through a combination of playful yoga and intuitive massage, we will awaken the body and bring balance to body and mind. We will move, stretch, and breathe — sometimes gently, sometimes more dynamically — allowing energy to flow freely again.

You will be invited to rediscover the simple pleasure of movement, of warmth, of being in your body. Through conscious touch, we will explore how connection can deepen in an atmosphere of trust, presence, and brotherly respect.

On several moments during the weekend, there will be space for integration, through meditation, reflection and sharing.

Yoga
Yoga is an ancient practice, designed to reconnect with your inner self, calm your ever-active mind and stimulate the flow of life-energy in your system.

Christian’s teaching is playful, explorative, and grounded in awareness. Inspired by ashtanga and vinyasa yoga, with elements of yin, his approach invites both strength, flexibility and softness. Through postures, breathwork, and meditation, we cultivate self-awareness, vitality, and inner stillness. Some practices will be shared in pairs, inviting connection and trust.

Massage
You will be guided in giving and receiving sensual, conscious massage, inspired by Tantric traditions, Esalen bodywork, and Taoist practices.

With slow, flowing strokes and attentive presence, touch becomes a language — one that speaks of relaxation, trust, and subtle awakening. In this space, you are invited to soften, to feel, and to return to a natural state of ease and inner peace.

The energy exchange between giver and receiver creates awareness, relaxation and sensuality. All touch will be conscious and based on consent, in a safe setting.

Facilitators
Tijs Breuer is a life coach and experienced bodyworker, specializing in deep, intuitive bodywork. His approach combines mindfulness, body awareness, and the transformative power of loving attention. In his workshops, playful exploration and authentic connection are central.

Christian Wicke is a yoga teacher in ashtanga and vinyasa yoga, and body worker. He enjoys guiding others into a deeper experience of the body and sharing insights from both practice and philosophy. His teaching include the physical and the contemplative, inviting presence both on and off the mat.

The venue
BlueWoods Inspiration House is nestled in the peaceful Brabant countryside, along the Dommel river. Surrounded by forest and meadows, it offers a natural environment that supports slowing down and reconnecting.

Here, consciousness is not just a concept, but a way of being — in how we relate to ourselves, to each other, and to nature. You will find space to rest, to wander, to sit in the sauna, or to gather by the fire.

Food and accommodation
We arrive on Friday morning and close the retreat on Sunday in the early evening. Throughout the weekend, you will be served healthy vegetarian meals, with local and fair ingredients.

Alcohol and drugs are not part of this retreat.

You will sleep in single beds in single or double bedrooms.
