ANDY BURU on DESIRE
Exploring desire is a layered process. When one layer peels away, another one appears. And there is an opportunity to deconstruct almost anything, like sexual orientation, gender, fetishes and kinks. It’s an empowering process of rediscovering oneself. However, desires are rarely a solo activity; if they were, they are likely to have been explored already. So exploring desire is a group process through interactions and witnessing. Seeing each other’s desires validates them, giving them life, and that makes us all both braver and safer because the shadows are out in the open.

Tantric Joy Festival Summer 2025
After three joyful festivals in the city of Amsterdam we were flirting with nature… feeling the grass at our feet, waking up with the tribe, jumping in the lake, lying at the beach, taking a walk in the forest, leisure at the campfire, grounding our body’s on the earth…We even added some Hot Tubs and Sauna’s for leisure. So last June 2024 we had our 4th edition at Landgoed Energy Up with a team of great international facilitators, musicians and dj's.
It was fantastic, so we will do our 5th Festival edition, June 18-22 again in nature.
We welcome all ticket holders for the registration on Wednesday June 18 between 11:00 and 13:00 (option early arrival on Tuesday June 11). The Opening Ceremony (mandatory) is at Wednesday 14:00. The festival ends on Sunday 22 of June at 16.00 hrs.
Tantric Joy Festival Volunteer evening Amsterdam
We are calling on people who want to commit themselves to make the 5th edition of the Tantric Joy Festival a success. The large group of volunteers are the heart of the festival. Without them there would be no food or clean toilets or sauna! Coming edition, just like last year, we will work with two teams: Team Kitchen & Cafe and Team Toilets, Shower & Spa.
On Tuesday February 21th, 19:30-22:30, we are celebrating a volunteer evening in Amsterdam. Just to re-connect and have a pre festival fun meeting.

ANDY BURU on SUSPENSION - SURRENDER II
This Suspension - Surrender II workshop is held 6-7 April 2024. It is a long wished workshop and finally in Amsterdam. To surrender is to let go and fall, trusting that one will be caught, by life, by love, by wonder, by another. Surrendering brings great pleasure when one learns to let go of controlling the body, the emotions, and the ego and devote oneself to something greater. This workshop requires some previous experience and practical knowledge.

ANDY BURU on POWER
Power is given to someone that deserves it because of their deviant creativity, rocksteady presence, and ability to create magical spaces. Discovering one’s very personal dominant persona is a journey which will significantly affect what kind of submissives they will attract. Luckily BDSM overflows with expressions of power, and there are several rituals to practice and embody.
