Tao Tantric Arts Organiser

Bhavani (Brechtje Riphagen)
Bhavani is the current organizer for Tao Tantric Arts. She books the resorts, arranges the food, interviews prospective students, books people in..and make it all happen! She has a slightly difficult Dutch name (easy if you're Dutch!), so she took the Sanyassin name of Bhavani.
If you join a course you will meet her first!
Luckily for everyone she is an absolutely awesome organizer and on top of her game, as well as a joyful member of the Shakti tribe!

How did we meet?

Minke and Shashi met at Tao Garden, at a conference celebrating thirty years of teaching for Grandmaster Mantak Chia. They were room mates and immediately hit it off!
They discovered that they taught in a very similar way, embedding the precious Tao Sexual Arts in a soft feminine delivery, including music, dance and ritual. Both shared a passion for delivering these incredible arts through a feminine container, including lots of vibrant nature in the surroundings. The Tao Tantric Arts Teacher Training was born!
They have now run many years of month-long TTCs and a few mixed gender trainings! They are delighted that such a precious gift is being well-received, and feel a deep gratitude and honour to have the privilege to share this work.
