I’m really pleased that Dr Kenneth Ray Stubbs, from Tucson, USA, will be offering two amazing workshops in March:

  • Fundamentals of Shamanism – this will be delivered in four sessions over two days, Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th March: a 12-hour experiential training in some of the fundamental shamanic abilities that can result in transformation/healing.  The early bird rate which is available till Sunday 19th February is £160 or £145 per person if two people pay together (it’s £190/£175 after Sunday).  (Flyer and booking form)
  • Shamanic Tantra – this will be delivered in five sessions over three days, Friday 16th, Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th March: a 15-hour experiential training to develop shamanic abilities to energetically become “One” with another and intensify your sexual experience.  The early bird rate which is available till Sunday 26th February is £200 or £185 if two people pay together (it’s £240/£225 after the 27th). (flyer and booking form)

(If you come to both workshops there is a £50 reduction on the total price)

Ray’s way of teaching is very different from any other I’ve encountered.  Instead of ‘teaching’ the mind with information or the body with techniques, Ray’s training actually engages and develops our energy systems.  Both of these workshops will be delivered by Ray from Tucson, Arizona, via Skype.  Ray is paraplegic and so can’t travel by plane but in fact there is no need for him to travel as his ability to merge to ‘teach’ our energy system even at that distance is as amazing as it is unique – even highly developed shamans can mostly only merge within a matter of metres.

“If we wish to understand shamanism, we must know energy.
If we wish to understand tantra, we must know energy.
If we wish to understand orgasm, we must know energy.
If we wish to understand God/Source/Goddess, we must know energy.

With energy comes wisdom.
Without these, there is no transformation.

This work is a corner stone not only of tantra, but of so many other therapies and interactions between the Self and the Other.  There is no one else out there teaching this same stuff.

You can watch a fascinating interview with Ray about his work in shamanism and about his two workshops here http://vimeo.com/36409051 and another about the Shamanic Tantra workshop here http://vimeo.com/36459843.

Ray came to an understanding of shamanic abilities from Native American medicine people (shamans). Being in ceremony with them and receiving healings from them, he perceived something deeper was happening energetically than in most of the somatic and psychological modalities he had experienced. The medicine people were able to direct their energies within him in ways very different than what most practitioners can do.

Kenneth Ray Stubbs, PhD – Ray is the creator of the recently released ‘Shaman Cards’. Subtitled ‘Ceremonies for Energy and Wisdom’, they provide a set of ceremonies for individuals to deepen their spiritual development.  He also produced the teaching documentary Path of the Sexual Shaman and is the author of The Essential Tantra.

On a shamanic path for over two decades, Ray is a 13-year Sun Dancer and has been greatly influenced by Tibetan Buddhism. Via Skype, he now gives individual sessions and trainings on energy, sexuality, and shamanism.   For more about Ray, see www.SexualShaman.com
