About our Introductionto Tantra Weekend: "A wonderful weekend! Delightful, educational, erotic... This is what sex education should be, but isn't. I would suggest Pala and Al's workshop for any couple who wants to expand their love and enliven their sexual relationship.... My view is that there are very few opportunities for couple growth and play that are not dis-ease oriented. We need more JOY."

About our Intermediate Tantra Weekend: "These workshops reveal the true mystery of sex and how to explore its nature. Through their vibrancy and openness Pala and Al convey all that is good about intimate relationships from celebrating difference to the ecstasy of the energetic sexual connection. We'll definitely be returning for further renewal."
Dr. Patricia Rockman, BA, M.D., CCFP - Toronto

"I hope you two have recovered from the weekend. I certainly have NOT recovered, thank God! It's only been a handful of days but the wonderful energy and love from the weekend has continued to grow. We are having a blast and I quietly walk around glowing. Our heart talks were extraordinary successes, dealing very well with two difficult issues for us, and we've turned our bedroom and bathroom into a sanctuary with candles and oils and books which we've had for years and are now front and centre and getting dog-eared in a hurry. The kids seem amused and warmed by our (increased) affection with each other and with them. I've told many people at work about the seminar. People are very open-I'm reminded how starving people are for something deeper. PC-pumping and initiating love-making with celebration of the other's chakras and eye-contact during intimacy have been three powerful tools in the past few days."
Dr. Bryan Moran, M.D., CCFP - Toronto

“Pala and Al bring not only first-hand knowledge to the workshop, but also an infectious enthusiasm for love, life, and sexuality. This was an experience I will not forget! We felt completely cared for and honored. They are awesome hosts, creating a space where we felt safe to explore our sexuality as individuals and as a couple.” Kathy
“Don’t wait for winter to spend a wonderful weekend indoors!” Dick

“I love great sex! I know that I am a spiritual being having a human experience. I came here to learn how to enjoy great sex beyond the physical level. Now we have the tools to enjoy the spiritual aspects of sexual pleasures. Thanks for your kind assistance.” Will
“I like the bed and breakfast approach with the love and hospitality of your home. I like the conversation/demonstration learning approach. I like that you obviously live what you teach. The weekend was wonderful getaway. I learned so much to help keep our relationship spicy, fun, interesting, loving, respectful and enriching.” Brenda

This was a wonderful and refreshing get away.  You were very warm and welcoming opening up your home and hearts to us.  We feel you would succeed as just a bed and breakfast.  The lakeside location was serene and beautiful.  We loved the rooms and incredible wholesome meals made with ingredients from local markets and your own garden.   

We felt that you were sex positive and talked casually about the bond between sex and love.  You brought us out of our shell so that we could bond with each other.  We enjoyed the simple exercises and meditation and found it fascinating how breathing together and looking at each other can bring lovers closer.    We were able to speak with you personally about anything, from sexual techniques, overcoming communication barriers, travel, politics, and their own stories, such as Al’s fantastic Mohawk days.  

It was a great time!  We laughed, we cried, we had incredible meals, and we experienced great sex!  We left your company feeling refreshed and inspired in the future.  It’s heartening to know that people this full of life still exist in the world and are willing to teach and share love of everything with others. WOOO-HOOO!

“Pala and Al, we would like to thank you for a most precious gift of knowledge and wisdom along with experiences that we will carry for the rest of our exciting lives together, always knowing there will be surprises that await us in this Tantric lifelong journey.”

“Al and Pala have given us knowledge and understanding of how wonderful truly satisfying sex can be with your partner each and every time we are together. It is a gift that we will continue to use during our lovemaking for the rest of our lives. It is truly a life long journey for both of us that we will cherish forever.”

Laura and Ryan
Couples Weekend July 21-23, 2006

“I felt very comfortable at all times. My concerns were addressed without me having to ask. I also never felt judged. After ten years of marriage our relationship had gotten somewhat lost. This workshop showed us how to reconnect and direct our energy towards a state of perpetual progress, adventure and discovery. With these tools our love will never again grown old.” Laura

“This weekend was a wonderful way to reconnect with my wife and move forward in our loving open hearted journey.” Ryan

“A truly inspiring week-end. A delightfully sensual experience on all levels. We laughed and cried our way to a more open place in our relationship which helped to free up our lovemaking in a powerful and playful way. I feel a strong shift in my psyche and even my heart seems to be allowing subtle openings which weren't there before the week-end.

You both are wonderful communicators and compliment each other well with your different styles. I appreciated your sincerity and clarity and the fact that you are living examples of what you teach.”

“What a wonderful way to put the spark and love back into our marriage. After 23 years we were sort of just coasting. This has been a great eye opener with many great ideas. I was particularly impressed with how you took three couples (total strangers) and made everyone feel so comfortable together. Even my wife Karen was ready to run away when we pulled into the driveway and she ended up getting so much out of the weekend. Thanks for all the love and lessons.”

Couples Weekend, July 19-21, 2002
Couples Intermediate January 31-February 2, 2004
Couples Advanced, July 15-17, 2005

Intro Weekend: "I found another part of myself this weekend. Who could have imagined me-a sexual/spiritual being, all in one? So profound, so right. Connection to my lover. Spirit, sex, energy, love. Now it's starting to make sense. Sacred sex-an absolute. Finding myself is fun!" Greta

"Al and Pala have given us a glimpse into bliss and ecstasy available to all. They have connected the divine and sexuality in their living. Their work is an extension and demonstration of the love force that is present to and within us all. With excellence, care and commitment they share their love and equip others with tools to enhance their relationship with themselves, God and their partners. Theirs is a quest for spiritual enlightenment through sexuality that promotes wholesome, healthy and divine living." Reverend Gary A. Williams

"Greta and I can't stop talking about our awakening, we're practicing and it's Grea........at!!!!!" Follow up email after the workshop.

“Again, my heart has been expanded. The movement toward oneness has accelerated. Pala and Al have given me another way of opening my sexual spirit and through that I have once again found myself. Thank you both for the gift!”

Conflict, pain, and perseverance are part of building a committed healthy relationship. Thank you for helping us to leap over the hurdles using love power. Love is eternal and real; it brings forth the energy of the Divine. Thanks for helping us to connect with the Divine and each other so that we might be healed.”

Advanced Weekend: “Once again I’ve been given resources to go within and meet with the divine. God’s imprint is active and willing to respond and give direction when asked. I have learned to ask, seek and knock for wisdom and knowledge, guidance, direction and support. Soul relationship with my beloved helps us to commune with the Divine and live out the divinity given to us both. We bless our guides and fellow journeyers Pala and Al.” Reverend Gary

“This weekend (number III) provided another opportunity to be self-reflective; another inward journey to expanding my heart, mind and body. It has affirmed the spiritual-sexual journey that I find myself on. I am excited about meeting my soul-self. I now give myself permission to be free.” Greta

“We are traveling to heights we were previously unaware.”

“Great exercises, presenting, food, and atmosphere. Very loving, comfortable and fun! I am so proud to be your son. Your teachings are enlightening. What a wonderful experience to share with your lover.” Muddy Watters

“I was totally impressed with both Pala and Al’s teaching methods. Wonderful, wonderful work—if only it was longer! It is great to be able to just focus on your lover. Pala and Al will spoil and pamper you and enable you to have fresh open eyes for your lover.” Morgan Cook

“The workshop was much more than we had anticipated. We learned so much about the two of us, our sexuality, positive energy over negative energy, and how to improve an already fantastic relationship. We look forward to practicing the techniques in our everyday lives. The food was fantastic.” Peter and Shelley

“Opening my heart to the one I love seems easy mow that I have learned to be the sexual wonderful mother/daughter/wife that I truly am through Pala and Al’s amazing guidance.” Kiersten
“The workshop opened our eyes and hearts to more than the sexual side. These practices will help us in our family, business, and other relationships through the openness they create.” Jayme

“You were wonderful hosts and I truly felt at home and relaxed. I have the highest respect for you both. I loved the active meditation, the dancing and the many fabulous techniques. Tell everyone about g-spot timing!”Marcy

“I believe that personal growth is one of the main priorities of conscious human beings. By extending your spirit through sexual and spiritual practice we enhance our lives tremendously. I believe Pala and Al can be great guides in a journey of any curious mind and soul.”

Mariel Camilleri SaringerDirector – Mysthaven Retreat Centre
Mysthaven Weekend February 17-19, 2006

“I love how totally comfortable you are about talking about genitals and sexuality; you make it very safe for participants to address ‘taboo’ subjects. I found it very worthwhile being in the course in a conscious and intentional process of improving our sexual life, even though we already have good sex and a high level of intimate exploration. I believe that any couple, no matter how great their relationship is already, could benefit from spending a weekend with you. Now I’m hoping you’ll return to Mysthaven for a week!”

“If you have an open mind and are willing to learn more ways to enrich your love life or create a new one then this is for you and your lover.” Brad

“You both walk the walk together. You actually practice what you preach. I wasn’t expecting the couple counseling. It was an added bonus and received well by us both.” Kelly

“Al and Pala both make the workshop enjoyable. I felt comfortable in being open and I felt my concerns were addressed properly with caring and respect.” Dawn

“Absolutely saved my marriage! Al and Pala you showed me through your actions and life that passionate monogamy is exciting and enriching. I honestly never knew this before but now I know it and will manifest this reality with my partner. This workshop is life-changing.” John

“Never before have I encountered two people so balanced and dedicated to assisting people on the path of sacred sexuality. Al and Pala are genuine and very knowledgeable. When I came to the retreat on Friday evening, it was my last attempt to save my marriage. By Sunday afternoon my husband and I saw first hand that passionate monogamy was indeed possible. Al and Pala created a safe and sacred place to put aside our differences, heal and start loving one another again rather than focus on what wasn’t working. We have signed up for the next course at the intermediate level and will seem them again next summer.” Tina (Eva Summer Breeze)

Lance and Kelsea
July 22-24, 2005 Couples Weekend

“Pala and Al have a genuine presence that results in an environment of comfort and safety and that meets couples where they are at—-emotionally and sexually.” Lance

“This workshop has provided my partner and I with powerful new ways to connect with one another sexually and spiritually. With these new connections, we have already experienced deep healing of some of the wounds that have inhibited our intimacy. My sense is that as we progress forward now together—-with new energy between us-—the on-going effects on our relationship will be dramatic.” Kelsea

“Best sex we have had in 30 years! The exercises for opening our hearts made this possible (not sex techniques per se, as one would normally assume). And this is even more impressive given that we enrolled in the weekend to celebrate the 30th anniversary of an already wonderful marriage.” Carole
“Al and Pala’s sensitive and intuitive approach to sexuality, relationships and well being has helped Carole and me to improve an already wonderful 30 year relationship. This was our 30th anniversary present to ourselves. The next 30 should be great.” Brendan
Take a look at Brendan's amazing photography

“Perfect length and setup for entire weekend; excellent food; don’t change! I liked how you combined both sexual intimacy and relationship information to make a complete connection between couples.”

Intro Weekend: “No pressure, Pala and Al are good listeners, able to intuit areas needing help, low key, credible, flexible as to the direction of personal interaction between the participants, yet softly guiding and keeping the program on track.
I liked that you most likely know the positive outcome for most couples, yet you let them discover and own the unfolding of a new way of loving themselves. The world needs so simple yet so powerful a message and guidance!” Val

“Hard to improve on perfection, you made us relax and relate.” Bill

Intermediate Weekend: “I can’t think of anything that you could do differently that would improve the program. I liked everything: the professionalism, your such real people, natural and incredibly encouraging and guiding in a direct and gentle manner. The Tantric weekend with Al and Pala should be a mandatory program for couples who are prepared to commit to each other for life. It’s just so valuable and essential for happiness that people couldn’t imagine—until they learn how! Al and Pala deliver you to that place.” Val

“Thanks for a truly wonderful experience once again! For anyone that truly wants to invest in their own greatest asset, (themselves), this experience pays great and long term dividends" Bill

Advanced Weekend: “Each weekend (this was number III) provides the fundamental building blocks for personal growth and ongoing development of your spiritual self. It’s like a ‘tune-up’ for your soul, improving every aspect of your self. Consider this one of the greatest gifts that you can give to yourself.” Bill

“In taking these workshops the resulting impact on our relationship and our daily lives is profoundly positive and far reaching. We are day-by-day and minute-by-minute aware and conscious of the knowledge and techniques Al and Pala have bestowed upon us to live our lives in joy and giving.” Val

“The couples weekend was an amazing time of growth for us as individuals and as a couple. It was sincere, nourishing, creative, vulnerable, spiritual, challenging, and full of good food, real conversation, and sacred love. The things we learned/discussed here will continue to enrich all areas of our life for a long, long time.”

Follow-up email: “We are still on the ‘high’ of the weekend, still putting the exercises we learned to use, and still reflecting often about our loving hours spent with you two. Thank you again for doing what you are doing. It is filling a needed lacunae in the world of spirituality. We feel that we are growing so much in these young years of our relationship, and we want so much to share our love. We want to come back already!”

“Thank you for allowing us to learn and participate at your Tantric retreat! The fact that we are able to utilize and reap the benefits from our lessons (immediately) is amazing. Your professional, yet relaxed approach provided the perfect environment for such a special topic. Great food too. Thanks for everything.” Laura

“I liked the openness, honesty, knowledge demonstrated. You created a very safe environment for teaching a sensitive, private and emotional topic. It was also fun!” David

“I felt safe which enabled me to fully participate. I also liked that Al and Pala talked about their personal experience. Pala and Al provide a safe and inviting space for personal work as well as good exercises and instruction. This was a very sex positive experience.” Melody

“Al, keep on sharing your gentle, delightful and loving spirit. Pala, take all of that wonderful lust for life and see if you can make Al’s head spin. The weekend was perfect just the way a lover is. It could be different, but it doesn’t need to be. It felt very real, honest, intimate and respectful. I loved being here with Melody, and your low key and heartfelt enthusiasm. I had fun. I relaxed the shame right out of my body. Come for the food—stay for the loving.” Rodney

“This weekend was fabulous in all respects. Al and Pala are exceptional hosts and instructors. They are professional, extremely warm and open and fabulous cooks! Coming from an already happy 10-year marriage, we have learned things this weekend that will enhance and deepen our relationship. We would highly recommend this to everyone.”

“My husband and I attended the Tantra workshop for couples and it was a wonderful experience. Al and Pala made us feel very comfortable from the minute we arrived until it was time to leave. We learned so much about many aspects of our relationship and will be able to use what we learned when we go home. I highly recommend this workshop. It is well worth the investment!” Yvonne
“I found the workshop very informative. It’s not just about sex! It’s a relationship workshop that deals with sex lives and our relationship with our wives and husbands. I’ve come away a better lover and a better man.” Bob

“This workshop should be mandatory for all couples when they get married!” George
“The workshop made us take time for each other and reconnect in a way we hadn’t in a long time.” Evelyn

“Very interesting and practical. I appreciated the honesty and integrity. Loved the homey environment.” Bonnie, Retired Teacher and Entrepreneur

“If you believe in the sanctity and sacredness of marriage, this workshop/retreat is for you.” Martha, Chaplain, Catholic High School

"...your love enters us as we arrive and stays with us until long after we have left." Sept. 2002

"Incredible but true-at our first workshop we experienced what we both agreed was our best sexual experience ever. At our second workshop, we amazed ourselves by surpassing that. Now at our third workshop we hit a new record for 'best sex ever.' We are looking forward to coming back for workshop number four! Total love, total bliss-thanks!" Sept. 2001

"Every year Jason and I return I am pleasantly surprised. Another part of me opens up that I was not aware needed opening. Pala and Al, you provide a comforting and nurturing atmosphere that promotes sharing and love. Thank you!" Raquel

"It truly is incredible how much I close myself off to people and the world and the woman I love. But what is even more incredible is how Pala and Al's compassion and instruction help me to open up to LOVE through Tantric practice. People need to experience a weekend with Pala and Al. Humanity deserves to feel LOVE, the Pala and Al love. I wish them success and most of all I wish they acquire the ability to help people in a broader audience. LOVE is the answer to everything. Let Pala and Al show the way." Jason

"These two are the real thing--warm and wise, loving and learned. I highly recommend them and their work."

“It’s all wonderful. Don’t change, it was fun, educational, comfortable and useful to our loving relationship.”

“Al and Pala have designed a seemless weekend that provides a wonderful balance between learning and loving time. My spouse and I felt totally pampered by each other and by the atmosphere provided by Al and Pala. It is far more than a romantic weekend. The tools learned have life changing potential. Al and Pala don’t just talk the talk but thoroughly live and breathe their work. They are wonderful role models for how a relationship can be, and freely share their experiences in a non-judgmental respectful manner.” Warren

“I would highly recommend Pala and Al’s weekends to learn the art of Tantra. They create a safe, relaxed and fun environment in which to dive into this beautiful spiritual practice. On top of everything, the food was outstanding. Al and Pala live what they teach, which makes the weekend all the more powerful.” Laurie

“Pala and Al provide a totally nourishing and healing experience. They are knowledgeable, humorous, articulate and authentic. A weekend of exploration and education with them opens your heart and mind and leaves you yearning for more! I felt totally nourished (food/nutrition, mind, heart and soul) in the space you created.”

Marcelle, (DC) and Anthony, (DC)

“Thank you for putting so much effort into this workshop. We grew a lot and learned powerful new techniques to continue that growth. The setting was perfect, quiet, safe, comfortable, with the most incredible view.” Tony and Marcelle

Alice and Francois are also Tantra Facilitators.

“Al and Pala, you are such a great hot monogamous happy couple! I loved the morning sessions, having the afternoon off, the evening celebrations, the discussion topics at mealtimes and the tropical setting. Absolutely lovely celebrations and rituals, it was fabulous, great!” Dr. Alice Melanson M.D.

“Two years ago we took a one day workshop in Toronto. It had an immediate impact on the two of us. But stress, pressure and insecurities slowly regained control of our lives. We recognized the need to reconnect and refocus our priorities. This led us to a couple’s workshop in your home. I feel it has had an impact once again that has united us for our loving future.”

"We loved being in the company of everyone at the retreat and one of our fondest memories is of the dinners with the wonderful discussions kicked off by provocative questions by Al. We also think the facilitation and teaching by you both was very skillful. Pala is a very good meditation teacher."

Angela, Carolina, Susan, Pala, Amanda, Joan, & Julie

Joan says:
What a waste that I didn’t do this class when I was 18! Thanks to Pala for a great balance of practical tips and deeper teachings.

AJ, Real Estate Investor and Michelle, CPA and Anneliesa Anneliesa is the first baby conceived during one of our weekend workshops! September 28-30, 2001 and December 13-15, 2002

Talk about being conceived in love, the first weekend with Pala and Al resulted in our daughter Anneliesa's conception and she truly is a dream come true. Our relationship is more than I could have imagined. We came back for the intermediate weekend now that our daughter is six months old. What I noticed immediately was that the anxiety I had once had regarding my sexuality was practically non-existent and really left us free to discover and grow without there being anyplace to get to. It has truly been a blessing in many ways finding Al and Pala's web site."

Mark, Computer Program Developer and Elizabeth, Fiction Author

Couples Intro Feb. 21-23, 2003
“I was quite apprehensive about attending a weekend workshop with sex, but this turned out to be an extremely safe and loving environment.”

"Since taking your Tantra Couples Workshop our relationship has grown by light years. After over 27 years together we are more in love with each other than we ever have been. We are communicating with each other on a much higher vibratory level than ever before.

As the kundalini has flowed, strong emotional blocks have been encountered in both of us. We are able to quickly identify what these blocks are about and using our emotional healing techniques from our practice, neutralize them. As these emotional blocks are removed, the kundalini moves up higher and stronger until the next block is encountered. It has been amazing as to how deep these issues are and releasing them has been both healing and eye opening experience to us. Tantra has been and is a wonderful spiritual growth experience for the two of us-and the sex is Great!” Dr. Anthony Brunelle, DC

“My experience during the weekend was one of exploration and discovery. The results were beyond my greatest hopes. I have felt a spiritual awakening that is truly beyond description. The grounding technique allowed me to feel energy levels that I did not know existed. This was then built upon through the sexual fire breath exercise and culminated with the passion pump. These are exercises that I know I will use for the remainder of my life. Aside from the actual exercises, the workshop is conducted in an intimate, safe, warm setting which allowed me to feel free to express myself without hesitation. The accommodations were very comfortable and the meals were absolutely wonderful. Overall an incredible weekend!” Ted

“The workshop was very open and comfortable. Sex is a private thing between two people and very hard to talk about. Pala and Al make this very easy and in a relaxing setting. The whole workshop was fabulous and we learned so much.”

Jim and Maureen
Intermediate Tantra Weekend, September 24-16, 2003

“Al and Pala gave a glorious weekend. It was everything we had hoped it would be and more. I highly recommend this weekend workshop!”

"Al and Pala are very good at creating a safe space."

One month later: “What a wonderful weekend we had with you and the other couples. We may be a long way from ecstasy, but we are finding a path to intimacy. Sunday night we danced to old records (in the nude). I don’t know when I’ve been happier.”

Cheryl & Dave
Couples Intermediate June 21-23, 2002

"We set out on our journey with much anticipation. Hoping to shed our ever-present pressures in daily living. Hoping for a rocket launch into a peaceful realm to carry us on. We stepped onto your doorstep and were warmly greeted. Your home was very comfortable to be in. The bedroom welcoming. The bathroom with its candles, oils, lotions and paints-a tease. The food was enticing and satisfying. Our journey was started. Al and Pala you glow!" Cheryl

"Peace, excitement, hope, warmth, love, passion, trust, contentment-thanks Al and Pala. The weekend was beyond our expectations. Thank you for your warmth and inspiration. The way you have decorated your home with photos and Tantric paraphernalia has inspired us to do the same." Dave

"We have nothing but praise for the weekend workshop! You presented a sensitive & very personal topic with honesty, care, enthusiasm plus just the right amount of discretion! We both felt comfortable at all times. our conclusion was 'it will bring us closer and take us to new heights in our realationship.' Your work was already recommended to friends!"

Vic and Cathy
Couples Weekend July 19-21, 2002

"I've noticed that for several days after our extended Tantra lovemaking sessions we are both alert and energized. Life flows smoothly and things fall effortlessly into place. We're thoroughly enjoying our mutual multi-orgasms."Cathy

"I am following all the procedures as outlined and actually have found that after only a few weeks, I am able to have 'ejaculatory - less' climaxes whilst having the sensation of ejaculating. You have no idea how much Kleenex this has saved Cathy and me. There are many times when one of us climaxes and we are not sure who it was...we share so many of these wonderful sensations and they are heightened by the fact that they are SHARED...and not necessarily individualistically achieved. I do practice the pc squeezes all the time and find them a wonderful way to while away the aggravating time I'm stuck in this horrendous traffic we have here. Thank you again for your terrific hospitality and the opening of a world of pleasure I wouldn't have believed possible before attending your workshop." Vic

“This was a new level in our marriage. The weekend has introduced my wife and I to a great way of getting closer and allowed us to experience something that we have been looking for a long time.” George
“The weekend helped us to learn to be more playful with each other, and helped me learn to communicate more with my husband. I liked how everything was taught visually instead of textbook style. I also learned that I don’t have to always say yes to everything, so that we can just enjoy each other without expectations.” Debbie

“The genuine sincerity projected and shared by Pala and Al in their instruction was fully evident. Touching and hugging are special communication tools you use well.”

Sabrina, Independent Film Producer

"Thank you Pala for opening your loving arms and helping me on my journey to self-discovery and self-love."

Shawna, Potter - Majestic Mud

"I am hugging mother earth and listening to a story she is telling me. Feeling like a child wrapped in her loving mother arms."

"This weekend changed my life on sooo many different levels. I awakened my Goddess and the world is now a different wondrous place filled with love and sensuality. I can't wait to go back in March. Thank you for being apart of my life."

Leslie, Child Care Worker - Developmentally Delayed Children
5 Part Tantra Series 1998

"As a monogamous couple looking to rekindle our appreciation of each other after 25 years together we were looking for a non-threatening environment to nourish our love and passion. That's what motivated us to investigate Tantric enrichment. Pala and Al are caring mentors who introduced us to new levels of intimacy through the wisdom of Tantra. Together they provided a nurturing and secure environment filled with the little surprises that excited our senses and resurrected the deep devotion and love we had buried over these past years."

Kim and Keith
May 9-11, 2002 Private Session

"Keith and I had a great time and learned so much. I hope (know) that someday we can still be so in love like the two of you! It is wonderful to know that 15 years down the road there is still hope of being so much in love (especially after both of us being in 15 year relationships previously)."

"Kim and I had a truly enlightening experience last week during our private session. The Tantra principles learned have added a new, wonderful, and spiritual dimension to our relationship. Kim and I both agree that this was the most worthwhile experience we have ever had in our lives. We hope to return in the near future to continue our learning under your able guidance."

Marilyn, Retired Teacher and Orvile Farmer
Couples Weekend September 7-9, 2001

"We enjoyed our weekend at 4 Freedoms very much. We have a closer, more intimate relationship because of our experience with you. We would recommend 4 Freedoms to other couples. We hope to return for further work."

"We tried everything they suggested! Everything worked! Each day we moved onto another level."
"This week has transformed us utterly. I came here in hope and trepidation, with no idea of how we were about to transform our lives completely, and forever. Who would have believed it? Not me. Not us. But the fearful, defended beings that arrived here have melted away in the tropical heat. We have achieved the oneness of love, the intensity and depth of connection, and the honesty and joy of communication, that I have longed for all my life. I am truly amazed.

One Year Later: "...we are as committed and loving as ever - if not more so, time having passed and love having deepened - and trying not to let things slip too far. We still put our relationship first, as you taught us(!), knowing that everything the kids really need (love, mostly)is going to be drawn out from this central source - that is, our love, the love we generate. We thought of you often last month, as it marked a full year since we came back, freshly wed, from Costa Rica and every day we celebrate the love that we discovered in ourselves, through you."

Andrew and Cindy, Gestalt Therapists and Facilitators
Couples Weekend, Feb. 15-17, 2002

"It was a truly glorious weekend for us. We remain on a high. Our bedroom is already reorganized and we are both recharged. Both content and process approach were superb! This workshop is a gift for any couple wanting to deepen their connection with each other and learn/explore the amazing possibilities available to them in Tantra. Al and Pala's loving presence and artful teaching enabled me to stretch and grow with support. I look forward to a next opportunity to learn more."

Shawna, Potter and Dale, Sales Representative

Immersion Weekend January 31 - February 2, 2003

"The most wonderful weekend in paradise! I learned so much about myself and Shawna. What a way to spend my birthday, being pampered and treated like a god! Our sexlife has blossomed, and grown, and we have learned how to create that special time and place for loving. I have learned how to control my orgasm better...YIPPEE! We really enjoyed the sharing with other couples. Al and Pala, you have a wonderful way of teaching! It was truly a pleasure!"

Roch and Tamara
Couples Weekend August 10-21, 2001

"It was an incredible, spiritual awakening that every couple should experience. It opened a new door for both of us. We are now acutely aware of the energy around us. Now that we know more about the energy, we've been having a whole pile of fun and wonderful experiences working with it. Tantric love is a must."

Linda and David
Couples Weekend November 17-19, 2000

"We enjoyed a very special weekend that helped us renew our commitment in subtle but valuable ways. Everything-the setting, the guidance and discussions, the activities -- encouraged us to focus on each other and our relationship.

While we can't claim our love life has become wildly passionate (late middle age hormone changes for both of us make that unlikely), our sexual appreciation of each other has definitely improved."

Couples Weekend April 19-21, 2002

"Al and Pala are warm and caring teachers. I enjoyed the pampering and Pala's wonderful food. It was a beautiful atmosphere in which to learn new loving techniques that we will certainly use.

I liked your honesty and openness. You showed us what can happen in a relationship with sacred sex - seeing is believing."

"We both look forward to working with you in the follow-up coaching sessions and are anxious to work towards being ready for the Intermediate Course. It has been a delightful and fun-filled experience sharing this weekend with you and we hope to live our life in ecstasy as you have taught us."
