Are you ready, willing, and able to say yes! to opening up to receiving more and having it all?
Tantric Practices and Private Couples Tantra Sessions can support couples in these areas, and so much more when woven with the science of love. A big part of this practice is learning how to default to a love and abundance mindset (the opposite of fear and scarcity), learning how to expand your breathing capacity, focusing on feeling and Being, instead of thinking and doing, learning how to use sound, and breath with movements to flow our emotions, energy, and transmute trapped, lower vibrational emotions. All this happens naturally when we Amplify Love Vibrate Abundance, which is what the ALVA Method teaches.
I have been inspired to share this combination after working with humans for 30 years as a physical therapist, and learned a variety of healing, wellness, and intimacy practices. I was married for 20 years, and we did not know anything about tantra. I truly feel looking back on my life, how if every couple could learn these Tantric Intimacy Practices, the world would look a lot different.
You see, whatever we complain about or not appreciate or enjoy about our partners, usually is because we are not fulfilling ourselves in certain ways. We focus and hyper focus on our partner’s “flaws” or faults, as a way of avoiding looking within. I know because this is what I did, and so many of the couples I work with do the same.
True transformation can only occur when we choose to become self-aware, and conscious of what we attract, which gives us feedback on where we are at. If we attract people who lack emotional connection, it is because on some level, we ourselves, have disconnected from our emotions, our heart on some level. Many times, we attract partners who perfectly are avoiding as we are, so that we are safe. Imagine being with a partner who is so open and deeply connected! This partner will cause all your unresolved traumas to arise and are we really truly ready for that? So we focus on our partner’s flaws, we keep our focus external, and sometimes for years. Until we are ready to look within, and then we can truly experience quantum leaps of healing, intimacy, and connection like never before.
My desire to discover my deepest inner parts, led me to study tantra, and today, my relationships feel so intimate, connected, and authentic. I am able to love others as they are, because I have discovered how to love myself as I am, and on that path, what I have realized, is that I AM LOVE. And a big part of my mission is to inspire men, women, and couples how to discover that deep and profound, life-enriching love that we all are, from within.
Couples who attend one-on-one private sessions or group classes with Michelle Alva online or in-person, report many benefits. Here is a recent testimonial to inspire you from a couple with five children who came to visit me on a weekend trip to celebrate their love by experiencing something new together, like Tantra For Couples, “My husband and I had a truly beautiful experience. From the moment we arrived, Michelle made us feel welcomed, respected, and completely at ease. The session was deeply relaxing, intentional, and conducted with the utmost professionalism. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect and be present together, and we left feeling so much closer and more connected on such a deeper level. I wish every couple could have this opportunity. The idea may seem intimidating and out of your comfort zone at first, but if you just trust Michelle and embrace the process, it will transform your relationship in all the best ways.”- A.H.
Here are 3 Tantra For Couples Exercises to practice and prepare for the most intimate and connected Valentine’s Day.
Exercise 1: Soul/Eye Gazing. Benefits: This simple exercise stimulates the healing, connection, and bonding hormone called Oxytocin aka the Love Hormone, which also stimulates endorphins, our natural pain-killer.
Sit in front of your partner, if you have a bench sit on the same bench facing each other. You can also sit in front of one another with your legs wrapped around your partner, depending on the fliexiblity of your hips! Remember, comfort is #1. Align your spine in a neutral and open-hearted posture. Look into your partner’s left eye. Take deep abdominal breaths while looking at one another’s eyes. This exercises is done mindfully, with present moment awareness, non-judgmentally. Allow all sensations and emotions to arise. Do this for at least 2-5 minutes, and notice the magic that happens. Keep coming back to the eye gazing, sometimes it gets so intense, you may feel like looking away and thats ok, do your best, remember, for some couples who are so used to being on their phones, and not spending these intimate moments, it might seem like a lot. Be patient and consistent. After doing this exercise thank each other for Being together and share how this experience felt for you. I call it Heart-Sharing. What does your heart feel after looking into your partner’s eyes, what came up for you? I would love to know. Feel free to write to me at info@michellealva.com and also you can book a phone call to share how it benefit you, here,
Exercise 2: Sacred Release and Surrender Exercise. Benefits: So many! It all depends of where you place your focus. I work with clients here to help them open up their capacity to receive deeper breath expansions, to remodel their discs if they have sciatica, to relax and release tension in the neck, shoulders, mid, low back and hips, stretch the fascia of the pectoralis muscles, and create deeper levels of trust, connection, and calm the vagus nerve. The nervous system re-sets in sacred surrender when combined with E3breath.
This exercise I discovered one day while working with a male client many years ago. He came in with low back pain, and also felt heart-broken and wanted to explore how tantra could benefit him. He was recently divorced and on the path of discovering how to connect his heart with his sacred sexuality and he had heard of tantra and this is how he found me. He came from a large family. He was the youngest of many siblings. I felt called to hold him in my arms and have him lean back on pillows so that his low back could also benefit from being in extension, this causes the discs of the lumbar spine to remodel and move back into an ideal place. This was one of the first times I allowed my intuition to guide me, human beings are wired for connection. And knowing this principle was enough to prompt me to hold space for my client in this way, He wound up crying and releasing years of not feeling supported by his family. Feeling like the black sheep of the family. I supported him in this position for about 45 minutes, while also massaging his neck, shoulders, and mid and low back from this position. He said he felt 80% lighter after being supported in Sacred Surrender, and I was guiding him to use the E3 Breath of the Alva Method process of self-discovery the whole time. This allowed him to release trapped tensions and emotions in the body. You can experience the benefits of the E3 Breath HERE.
This position is so healing and life changing. Some men have never felt held or supported by their partner, or anyone, in this way. Something truly magical happens when I support my clients, whether male or female, in sacred surrender. We do this exercises when I teach couples tantra, and also Tantra 101 for singles and couples. People agree to do whatever they consent to. Sometimes strangers who have never met before are able to hold one another in this way. Our intention, clear boundaries, and consent are key for this exercise.
Lay down with your partner leaning back on your body as in this image below. Open up your arms and legs to welcome your partner in a safe and supported way. It is beautiful to tell your partner “I got your back” or “You can lean on me”. These positive declarations have a profound affect on your partner. They build trust, and promote deep relaxation. Breathe together in this position. You can use pillows for support underneath. Click Here to watch a video that describes Sacred Release and Surrender. Take your time in this position, and use pillows and neck towel for support if necessary. I am grateful to have a background and degree in physical therapy these past 30 years, as it taught me bio-mechanical principles. I also became a yoga teacher, and certified in Integrative Yoga Therapy, which taught me how to work with clients one-on-one, and partner yoga is a magical way to also share and support one another. I integrate partner yoga, partner thai bodywork, which I also was trained in with the Tantric Exercises, and combining all of these with my background in movement science, creates such a safe and profoundly healing and transformational experience. Remember, human beings are wired for connection. Connection heals us, so when we connect body to body, something truly magical happens, beyond anything I could have ever learned in a book or class. Connection teaches us! The key is to be open to the magic, and the miracles of connection. Watch this Video HERE that also explains Sacred Surrender on my You Tube Channel MichelleAlvaTV.
Exercise 3: Sacred Touch and Tantric Massage for Him and Her.
Have your partner lay down in front of you facing upwards and with their legs wrapped around your waist as in the image below. Caress slowly from the lower legs upwards towards the heart and chest, with a loving intention. Feel grateful that you get to touch and massage your partner’s sacred body temple. Tantric Massage stimulates the hormone of love and bonding. The more we touch one another with a loving intention, we get to rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and feel more comfortable being vulnerable.

Read below for more Testimonial Benefits of Tantra For Couples from clients who have worked with Michelle Alva:
“Working with Michelle was a turning point — not just in my personal journey, but in the evolution of my relationship with my husband. She held a space of such deep safety, grace, and feminine wisdom that it allowed us both to soften into more love than we thought possible.
Michelle reminded me of the power of presence, the sacredness of vulnerability, and the truth that intimacy begins within. Through her guidance, I reconnected to myself in a way that naturally deepened our connection as partners. We didn’t need to “fix” anything — we just needed to be witnessed, guided, and gently reminded of who we already are at our core.
Our relationship now feels even more woven — more intentional, more nourishing, and more free. If you’re seeking a deeper connection to your partner — or simply to yourself — Michelle is a rare and gifted guide. Her work is both soul medicine and relationship alchemy.” -Dana B
“Before working with Michelle, I didn’t fully realize how much I had not fully understood what I didn’t have access to in my head and in my heart — even though I was convinced so emotionally, physically, and energetically. Her presence made it easy to connect spiritually and sensually and to simply let go. For the first time, I bonded with my wife in an environment where we were encouraged to speak honestly, and show our love for each other in new, meaningful ways. Michelle pushed through contemporary spaces and established norms with real compassion and insight. She helped me link to parts of myself I hadn’t looked at, perhaps ever. I have learned in recent months that today’s man is not one who will open up and confront their fears, seek out new desires and always seems overwhelmed by chivalry and a societal norm to lead — even if there’s needed passion toward a goal. Michelle will give you the tools to level up more consciously in your relationship — or if you’re ready to connect to yourself on a deeper level. It is why I can recommend Michelle. Her work has made a highly positive impact on my marriage, and on who I am as a loving partner and deeply compassionate and supporting person in the home and across our community.”-Adam J.
“After working with Michelle early in our relationship, we developed honest communication, deepened our emotional intimacy, and gained a clearer understanding of each other’s needs and boundaries. Michelle provided us with tools to express ourselves openly, express desire, and strengthen our bond both inside and outside of the bedroom.”-Todd G.
“It feels more true and connected compared to past relationships. Adding tantra to our relationship transformed the connection. With tantra infused into our lives, we are more honest with ourselves and each other, not afraid to ask for what we want, and have created a deep intimacy with each other that reaches the soul. Soul intimacy feels true, it isn’t making assumptions about you or your partner wants, it isn’t changing yourself to please other people, or feeling shame for expressing your true desires.”-Vicky L.
