Rise in Love
Tantra Retreat for Couples in Berlin
May 23 & 24
Two Day Weekend Retreat for Couples in Berlin, Germany
Rise in Love is a two day Tantra weekend retreat for couples in the city center of Berlin. It invites you into the experience of deeper love, understanding and communion with your partner. Explore yourself and each other in new ways, allow yourselves to be held and guided into deeper intimacy and immerse in an experience that may naturally flow into every aspect of your relationship.
Who Is This For?
This intimate weekend retreat is for any couple who feels a longing to reconnect and meet each other with more presence and aliveness.
Maybe you’ve been together for years and life has become full with work, children and other responsibilities. Maybe your lovemaking has faded into routine or feels less accessible than it once was. Or perhaps you have moved through a challenging period and feel ready to come back to each other—not through problems or analysis, but from a place of wholeness, softness, and presence.
Or maybe, you simply have a quiet knowing that there is more possible in your connection and you long to be in a container where it is just about the two of you.
Wherever you find yourself, what you will share with the other couples in the space is the desire to
(re-)connect and deepen intimacy. Rise in Love offers you the opportunity to do so- emotionally, physically, and energetically. No prior experience with Tantra or meditation is needed. What matters is openness, curiosity, and a willingness to meet yourself and your partner in a new way.
What to Expect from Rise in Love - Couples Tantra Weekend Retreat
A sensitively and lovingly held container that invites deep presence, where whatever wants to arise can unfold naturally—free from goals, expectations, or desired outcomes. Come as you are and meet the moment as it is. From here, you can connect more deeply with yourself and each other, allowing your natural aliveness to flow.
A well balanced program of partner practices designed to gently guide you deeper. Elements include meditation, eye gazing, breath, sound, touch, movement, embodiment, massage, play, dance, vulnerable sharing, active listening, and ritual.
A cosy and comfortable studio in Kreuzberg Berlin. Feel at home in our birth, private space- enjoy balcony views during breaks or unwind in the garden below. Praxis Köpi offers a peaceful retreat year-round.

Studio
Located on the fifth floor of a quiet backyard building, Praxis Köpi offers a bright and peaceful setting—a perfect retreat for a weekend. It’s an ideal refuge in both summer and winter. On hot summer days, we open the balcony door and the windows on the opposite side to let a continuous breeze flow through. In winter, it turns into a cozy haven.

If you are new here, welcome! My name is Sophie.
I am deeply passionate about guiding people into an expanded experience of Love. I create spaces where people feel deeply connected and truly seen, leaving them with a sense of wholeness, connection and greater acceptance. As a space holder I value devotion, sincerity and humility.
I am double certified as a Tantra teacher (700h) and have been teaching Tantra groups since 2022. Since then, I have guided over 200 couples. Currently, I am in training to become a couples and sex-therapist.
Feel free to read more about my own personal journey here.
I look forward to meeting you!
Retreat Facilitator
“Sophie has a holistic approach to Tantra, which includes sacred sexuality, but does not restrict the practice of Tantra solely to sexuality. It acknowledges and accepts you as a whole human being. While Sophie creates a spiritual space, she has a grounded presence at the same time. This helped me to apply what we learned during her workshops in “real life”. Attending her sessions helped me to get closer to my feelings and to my body in general.”

FAQs

Every couple is welcome. Your age, nationality, religion and sexuality does not matter. The most important thing is that you are curious and open to discover what Tantra means to you. The course will be conducted in English so you’ll need to have a sufficient understanding of the English language (pardon the dutch accent;). If you have any physical constraints, please reach out to see if that will hinder your participation in any way.
-
To join this weekend workshop for couples, you won’t be needing any prior experience! We will start with a holistic introduction to Tantra and from there we will deepen the exploration through practices and discourses. This weekend workshop could offer you the perfect entry into your shared Tantra path.
-
Between 6 and 8 couples in total.
-
You will be invited to remove some clothing if you wish (during the massage as well as the ritual). But keep in mind that you don’t have to do anything! At any moment you have the opportunity to not participate or do something in a way that suits your personal needs and boundaries.
-
There won’t be any sexual intercourse during the Tantra weekend workshop. That you’ll save for when you are at home ;)
-
The first invitation is to become present with your sense of not feeling comfortable. Does it have a message for you? Presence is the main practice in Tantra at all times. It allows us to know ourselves and to take care of ourselves. From this presence, you can choose not to participate or to participate in a different way. Either way, you are learning something about yourself.
-
100% yes! You are so welcome. My heart jumps with joy everytime a non-heterosexual couple joins the space. It is so important that this work is available to everyone! Tantra does not have to be heteronormative. I am open to learn from you how to make it even more inclusive while I share my knowledge of Tantra with you <3
-
Very! But I always like breaking these concepts down in such a way that it is relevant to you and your daily life. Tantra is embodied spirituality. We don’t want to get stuck in ‘woohoo’ - we want to live it and experience it.
-
English with German translations here and there if needed. Your questions in German are welcome :)
-
Comfortable clothing, sarongs, water bottle, lunch & optional: journal, altar item, additional meditation cushion.
-
For cancellations up to 4 weeks before you will receive 50% refund. After that, no more refunds. If you fear not being able to attend, I recommend getting a workshop (seminar) insurance.
