Welcome to the 3rd Annual Atlanta Tantra Festival
Postponed; Dates TBD

Welcome to the Atlanta Tantra Festival, an event produced and organized by Amina Peterson, Founder of the Atlanta Institute of Tantra & Divine Sexuality. My mission is to show you HOW to BE the LOVE, through touch, wellness, and sexuality. I am working to create a community of lovers working together to dissolve fear, create fearless relationships and increase our natural ability to LOVE. I believe we can heal our communities and families when we eliminate fear of rejection, of not being good enough, or able to satisfy your partner or yourself.
DUE TO COVID-19 WE ARE POSTPONING THE DATE TO THE UNKNOWN FUTURE

When you see the same thing over and over again, you begin to realize it is by design. Anti-racism work requires effort. There are no shortages of Tantric Sex Workers and Practitioners, Yoga Instructors and Spiritual Leaders with melanin, despite what every Tantra Festival all over the world shows in the bookings of their presenters and targeted advertising.

So I built a beautiful festival, that centered Black women, hired teachers of color, particularly Black men and women and created an environment that was safe to be vulnerable, loving and sensual for EVERYONE. We built a beautiful community, excited to learn, practice and engage with each other.
The sharing of conversations around the dinner table was just as critical as the spankings in the kink corner and the hugs in the cuddle puddle. So how do we recreate that online? I have struggled with this since the start of this pandemic, when the World Health Organization told us we would be close to 2 years before we returned to any "normal." I tried to reimagine the festival, first as a smaller event, then as cases surged in nearly ever state, a digital one. No matter how I reimagine it, the same question comes up: how will we cuddle?
We simply can't.
After consulting with other members and leaders in the community, some deep meditation and a few tears, I have made the hard decision to postpone the 3rd Annual Tantra Festival to 2021. I don't know when it will be, but I know we won't do it in 2020.
I also know that when we do comeback together we will need community even more, so I will continue to do everything I can to grow and support it. When is all done, we will need more cuddles than ever, to serve as a reminder that love is touch, touch is sensual, and we DESERVE to experience sensual relationships with each other that are not transactional.
Until then, I will try to bring the energy of the Atlanta Tantra Festival to the digital world. I will continue to create, aggregate and share information on Tantra, Goddess Energy and Living a Divinely Erotic Life here on Patreon, as an offering of gratitude. We will see each other online as we can...
"...continue to build community"
If you have already registered for the 2020 Atlanta Tantra Festival, your festival pass will still be acknowledged for full access when we resume. When we announce the new dates, the festival will be open only to members. Those who purchased the festival passes before we instituted the policy will be offered a trial membership for that weekend if their membership has lapsed. It doesn't matter the level however, the event is a private and only open to members. That allows us to hold deeper, fuller, more sacred space, ensuring the safety and privacy of all in attendance.
It also ensures that we are surrounded by community. A village of people who have invested ourselves into institutions that align with our spirit, that acknowledge our experiences, and that sees us. So stay tuned...
