Testimonies from One-on-One Online Journeys:

“I absolutely loved my journey it was such a pleasurable, loving, igniting space to really connect to myself. Apsara is a phenomenal guide, I felt so comfortable during our shared time together and will most definitely be returning. I opened portals during this journey that have an impact on me to this day. Thank you so much for this journey and cannot wait to experience it again!” - Charisma

“Tantra journeys with apsara have felt deeply soothing to the nervous system. feelings of softness and peacefulness are elevated after each session. Apsara is very sincere with their approach and kindly checks in on the participant's range and comfort level. She confidently offers teachings that she has embodied, only sharing what is relevant for the specific session. Apsara has a keen ability to pick up nuanced body movement and energetic changes in mood via the virtual realm. feelings of being seen and held are heightened by apsara's devotion to their sacred calling. they allow participants to move through quite a spectrum of emotions without judgement. as an ongoing recipient of apsara's gifts, i am experiencing multiple and long-lasting shifts in my mood and consciousness. i highly encourage anyone to receive ongoing sessions with this priestex of eros movement and flower essences.”- Anonymous

“It truly was a journey, a deeper exploration of my body that I’m still on. Being gentle, yet shamelessly sensual and fierce. I enjoyed it because it made me connect with my body and spirit in ways I never thought. Being able to tap into an ancient matriarchal practice I felt that power. The sounds we made held so much power and wisdom of long ago. To be connected to the erotic parts of me made me feel so strong. It makes me never want to deny my pleasure again. My pleasure is my power.” - Maryam

““During my four sessions with Apsara, I practiced activating pleasure throughout every part of my body through movement, sound, touch, and visualization. Guided by Apsara's uniquely loving, deeply affirming, unabashedly sensual, empowered and empowering energy, I connected with a variety of avatars within me who each hold and activate pleasure in their own way….I now have a vast set of tools to return me to the wellspring of pleasure within me and to allow this wellspring to continue to blossom, as I integrate rituals of pleasure, sensuality, and eroticism into my weekly spiritual practices. As someone who identifies as genderqueer and non-binary, this was the first space I have experienced where dance, pleasure, sensuality, and eroticism were explored completely outside of gender constructs. From the first moment I worked with her, Apsara consciously and masterfully affirmed me as I explored Tantra without asking me to categorize any practices, feelings, or channeling in relationship to "femininity" or "masculinity
….She consistently used language that affirmed my non-gendered divinity and encouraged a non-binary relationship to pleasure…..She articulated her own ancestral connections to the tools she shared, and always made the distinction between what was deeply rooted in tradition versus what she intuited and added to the practice…..Apsara felt like a consistent presence throughout my Beloved Wellspring journey, always accessible in the physical realm and guiding me in the higher realms in the days between our sessions. Even after our sessions have ended, I still feel the guidance of a teacher, and I'm honored to feel initiated into the lineage of Tantra from such a powerful, reverent, and pure soul taking on the divine work of keeping the practice of pleasure alive. Before beginning my Beloved Wellspring journey, I did not have any practices that allowed me to connect to my body and its pleasure through ritual movement. The visibly erotic parts of my ancestral lineage that I had encountered were held with shame by my family system and teachers from my culture; I was quite self-conscious when dancing as I had not yet felt empowered in the part of myself that danced for my own pleasure; I had blockages around accessing my non-binary sexuality with other bodies from a place of personal eroticism; and I did not have a pathway to connect my sense of touch and taste to my work with spirit. A few weeks after my journey with Aspara, these all feel like distant memories. In the weeks after my Beloved Wellspring journey, I've already utilized the immense power of pleasure as a tool of manifestation through dance, flowers, and touch in ancestral ceremonies, none of which I used consciously in ceremony before working with Apsara. The power of these tools continues to amaze me, as the meanings Apara shared with me deepen and unfold. I lost my grandfather soon after closing out my Beloved Wellspring journey, and I was in complete awe to find myself guided to relate and activate my own pleasure in relationship to processes of death, grief, release, and surrender. This is a testament to Apsara's ability to teach pleasure as a portal we always hold within ourselves, a wellspring to tap into through which we can transmute fear, release resistance and move through any earthly experience with joy and empowerment. I am completely certain that I was meant to connect with Apsara at the time I did, so that I could have the tools of my ancestors present with me to help welcome my grandfather into the ancestral realm and to hold me in the boundlessness of my deep inner wellspring of love. Apsara, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for guiding me into such intimate relationship with the divinity of my body! This has been the most magical experience of connection to Self and to ancestral lineage that continues to unfold.”

“My experience with this Tantric journey was profound and insightful. The vocalization & dance portions in particular unveiled to me many strengths and many areas within myself that need both gentle tending and to be let free. I felt an unfamiliar, but not scary, level of depth within my body while working with them. Apsara was always kind, patient and receptive to wherever I was at during a session. Through this work, the budding relationship I have started to form with my ‘inner beloved’ has become so special to me. Apsara is a wonderful listener and a very clear channel for divinity. A powerful and compassionate guide, deeply attuned to the nuances of peoples individual journeys.” - Laila

Testimonies from Group Dance Pleasure Ceremonies 2017-2021

“Apsara’s guidance was gentle and free flowing, yet had an intimate structure….Many times our group erupted in blissful laughter, which shows the beautiful space Apsara was able to manifest for us all— it’s not in every group everyone just starts to erupt in sensual, loving laughter. These practices and meditations not only helped me connect more with myself, but with the folks I was engaging in the meditations alongside. I am forever grateful for Apsara and her visions of bliss. " - Nasha

“During the Hibikiss performance, which I found outstanding, one couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by all of the beauty and impactful stories that were told through the performers. I felt every emotion within myself triggered in a way that still impacts today. That said, I couldn’t help but admire all of the hard work put in by Apsara and everyone involved with Hibiskiss. It was well articulated and memorable performance….Apsara brings that confidence out of you to help one guide to love yourself, experience sensations of erotic feelings with fruit, chocolate, incense, and essential oils, but to also allow yourself to dig deep and to connect with who you really are. In summary, I find Apsara’s work invigorating and inspiring" -Viraj

“Hibiskiss: A River of Love ignited individual and collective identity formation, healing, and transformation through sensual exploration and experimentation in a safe container for queer youth of color. This experience ignited a sense of belonging to a community reverberating with healing vibrations. I carry and treasure memories of pure joy, mutual inspiration, thrills, and love. While I was still early in my grief process over my mother's crossing into the spirit world, Hibiskiss created a space where I could experiment with externalizing and shape shifting the deep grief I was contending with. Before I had access to therapy...I had Hibiskiss.” - Paula

“I enjoyed Apsara's mindfully curated exercises that were designed to guide us to tune into our senses, our visualization muscles, our relationship to the erotic within. I was pleased to enjoy Apsara's facilitation of a judgement free space where participants witnessed and affirmed each others unique energies and freedom of movement…There was a meditation we once did that was so tranquilizing...i fell into a deep slumber and felt soooo yummy afterwards!..” - Paula

"Apsara Preyanka’s guidance of self-intimacy and activation workshops were immensely transformative and awakening for my healing and expanding of my sensual energies. Her warm, charismatic, and soothing energy created a very blissful environment of trust to surrender to myself. Apsara is truly an effortless embodiment of her tantric practice, as it radiates in her energy and touch. Her practice ignites a wholesome sensorial experience of pleasure that encourages the rewriting of trauma and old stories." - Khushboo

Testimonies from Teaching

“Apsara is a giving and very helpful teacher who listened to my needs and guided me in working through my inhibitions. When I was first invited to be a part of the ensemble, I was apprehensive about performing in front of a huge audience as I was not a trained dancer and felt very nervous to showcase a part of myself that was private. However, Apsara put my worries to ease as she was very patience and nurturing to my abilities. Her teachings really helped me step into my role but also helped me identify meaningful ways to channel energy.” - Nyat
