Interview transcript

Lukáš: It’s 10:03 p.m., and you’re listening to Disclosure Voices on SeeJay Radio. Tonight’s Sex, Drugs, Dance broadcast is quite special because we have an amazing and distinguished guest. Verča, please introduce her.

Veronika: Yes, and our guest tonight is Mrs. Michaela Torstenová from the Tantra masáže Praha studio, which is located in Anděl. Good evening, Michaela.

Michaela: Good evening.

Veronika: And to give our listeners a little context – Michaela is here to introduce us to the world of tantra. So let’s get right into it. Michaela, tell us what tantra actually is. When people hear the word “tantra,” what can they imagine, and what all does it encompass?

Michaela: Tantra is a philosophy that originates from India and is thousands of years old. It deals with the work with the body, sexuality, openness, and the overall approach to life. Most modern people know tantra as tantric sex or tantric massage, which are now very popular and serve as an accessible way for someone unfamiliar with tantra to experience it firsthand.

Lukáš: And is that tantric experience purely physical, or is it also something more spiritual, something that touches the soul or psyche?

Michaela: It’s primarily about connection. In tantric massage, one experiences through physical touch a sense of acceptance, safety, and authentic contact with another person. It’s not only about caring for the body – a person can also bring very intimate or personal topics to the session and work with them during the massage.

Veronika: I’d really like to know – we talked about this earlier with Míša – what’s the difference between regular sex and tantric sex? People might imagine that it’s just spiced up with some techniques. Tell us, what makes tantric sex special, or maybe not “better,” but deeper?

Michaela: There are certain tantric techniques one can learn and include in their sexual life, but the most important part is working with the pelvic floor muscles, which increases sensitivity and blood flow in the pelvic area.

Lukáš: That’s mostly for women, right?

Michaela: Mostly for women, yes – but it makes the whole experience more enjoyable for everyone.

Veronika: I’ve always wondered, how does a woman actually learn that? It’s also something practiced during childbirth, right? How long does it take to learn to control the pelvic floor?

Michaela: It depends on regular practice. Learning the technique itself is quite fast, maybe an hour. Then it’s up to the woman to keep practicing, just like any physical exercise.

Veronika: So it’s basically a sport...

Lukáš: Exactly...

Michaela: A very pleasant one.

Lukáš: Home training is essential. We’ll continue in a moment – you’re listening to Sex, Drugs, Dance.

Lukáš: And we’re here again with Míša, a specialist in tantric massages. Verča, go ahead.

Lukáš: Let’s look at this from another angle – what about young people who are just starting with sex? Porn often gives them a false image. Can tantra help them too?

Michaela: Thank you for that question. Young people often enter sexuality with the idea that it’s supposed to look like what they see in porn. Then they feel disappointed when reality doesn’t match that “recipe.” We teach them to listen to themselves, use their imagination, and open up to the idea that sex isn’t a mechanical act – it’s a meeting and exchange between two people. It takes time. Tantra teaches people to let go of goals – to stop doing it for a result, like an orgasm. In our culture, orgasm is often the “goal,” but that creates pressure. Tantra is about releasing that pressure, enjoying the process, and when people do that, they can go much deeper and enjoy it much more. But it’s not easy because people aren’t used to it – our culture is built on performance.

Lukáš: That’s a fascinating topic. We’ll talk more about that in a bit. I think everyone’s curious about how tantra deals with “the ending,” because people often expect a happy ending, so to speak. Is that part of it, or not? We’ll ask Míša in just a moment.

Veronika: Yes, Luky mentioned we’ll talk about orgasms now. Is it important for tantric massage to end with one, or does the process itself matter more? Let’s say I come to you for a massage – tell me what happens, from the start to the end, including “the ending.”

Michaela: Well, during a tantric massage, it’s very important...

Lukáš: Sorry to interrupt, the massage usually lasts about two hours, right?

Michaela: It starts at 90 minutes, and our longest one is five hours. The most popular ones are around three to three and a half hours – people like to take their time.

Lukáš: Can you imagine someone taking care of you for five hours?

Veronika: Mmmm… So, let’s start with the beginning of your beautiful massage. What exactly can one expect?

Michaela: After the initial conversation, the massage begins with a standing ritual, where the masseuse first makes physical contact with the receiver – she hugs them, breathes with them, and guides them toward trust and surrender. After that, the client lies down on a futon. We begin with firm, physical touches to release stress and tension, because most people come a bit nervous or shy – it’s not easy to open up to a stranger. We start with the head and feet, helping the person relax both physically and mentally. Then we move to gentler, more sensual parts – feathers, fur gloves, warm oil – the whole body is lovingly touched: the back, legs, buttocks, head. Gradually we reach the intimate areas, which in tantra are seen as a natural part of the body. The intimate massage lasts about 30–40 minutes and happens in waves – arousal rises and falls again, naturally, without any goal. Sometimes there is an orgasm, sometimes not. We never force it. Tantra is about letting things flow freely, not rushing toward the finish, but enjoying the journey itself.

Veronika: I’m completely in awe. What really struck me was how you said that the body should decide for itself whether it wants an orgasm or not. That’s such an important idea – sometimes the body just isn’t ready, and forcing it doesn’t make sense.

Michaela: Exactly. Some days the body just wants to enjoy the pleasure and touch without needing to reach a climax.

Lukáš: It’s not only pleasurable but also healthy. Míša, tantra isn’t just enjoyable – it can also be healing, right? Not only physically, but mentally as well. What kinds of problems can it help with?

Michaela: If it’s real tantra, it can help a lot. On a psychological level, for example, if someone can’t open up, has trouble surrendering to their partner, or feels bored in a relationship – tantric massage can reconnect them. It can also help physically – men with erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation, women with pain during sex, or women who have lost interest. Sometimes women come after trauma or assault. The safe, slow, respectful touch can help them rebuild trust in their body and sexuality. It’s a corrective, healing experience. So the range of things we can work with through tantra is really broad.

Veronika: We also talked about long-term relationships – couples who’ve been together for 30 or 40 years. Over time, the sex life often fades, and they stay together more out of habit. They might say, “We don’t need sex anymore.” Should they give up on that? Can tantra bring back the spark and passion they once had?

Michaela: Absolutely. Sometimes just seeing your partner being touched by someone else reignites desire – you suddenly notice how attractive and desirable they still are. It brings back the spark. It’s actually healthy to experience safe, respectful touch from another person; it breaks the routine and can inspire couples to try new things, even learn new techniques they can later use together.

Lukáš: And that kind of “refresh” really helps the relationship – especially in bed.

Veronika: I think sexual harmony is key to any relationship.

Michaela: I agree. When people lose connection on the physical level, they often drift apart emotionally as well – and sometimes that leads to infidelity. Sexual energy needs to flow. So it’s important to experiment, communicate, and find that spark again.

Veronika: If you’d like to visit Tantra masáže Praha, you can go to www.tantramasaze.com, where you’ll find detailed descriptions of the massages and choose what suits you best. We’ll continue with Míša in a moment to talk more about tantric massage.

Lukáš: Tantra continues in a moment – and you can also check out SeeJay Radio’s Facebook page, comment on the Sex, Drugs, Dance post, and remember, the funniest comment wins a gift pack from our partner AXE. Now, Míša will tell us how to bring tantra home – what if someone wants to learn to do it with their partner?

Michaela: The best way is to take a tantric massage course.

Veronika: Oh, and you teach those at your studio?

Michaela: Yes, we do. We work with both couples and individuals. It’s very personalized – people can tell us what they want to focus on, and we tailor the session to their needs. We combine a bit of theory with mostly hands-on practice – breathing exercises, pelvic floor awareness, and the massage techniques themselves. People leave knowing exactly how to touch and relax their partner on every level.

Veronika: How does tantric sex itself differ from “normal” sex – what actually happens, what’s the idea behind it?

Michaela: At first, it’s all about a change in approach. You don’t rush. You don’t push your partner. You allow time. There doesn’t need to be a goal or a result. Once people understand that, they can go deeper – meditate, connect through breath, move between intensity and stillness, experience every moment consciously. It’s about deep connection and presence – that’s what makes tantric sex so fulfilling.

Lukáš: You mentioned the pelvic floor muscles earlier – we’ll talk about that right after the break. You’re listening to Sex, Drugs, Dance with Veronika, Lukáš, and today, Míša.

Lukáš: We’re back with Míša and tantra. Let’s talk about the pelvic floor.

Veronika: I just want to remind our listeners – today’s guest is Michaela Lynnette Torstenová from Tantra masáže Praha, located in Anděl. Míša is a dramatherapist, tantra teacher, and has been practicing tantra for about 11 years. We talked about how women can learn to work with and move their pelvic floor muscles.

Michaela: Yes, they’re muscles just like any other.

Veronika: Tell us why it’s good to train them – and do you teach this too? Is it just for women, or can men learn as well?

Michaela: It’s not just for women – men can learn it too. For men, it helps control ejaculation. When a man contracts his pelvic floor muscles at the right time, he can last longer and enjoy more control. For women, it increases blood flow and sensitivity in the pelvic and vaginal area, making sex more intense. And it’s very exciting for men when a woman can do it.

Lukáš: So, like a massage during sex…

Michaela: Exactly. It’s very powerful. Every woman can learn it – it’s not hard. It’s about awareness, breathing, movement. Once she learns it, she becomes an unforgettable lover.

Veronika: Míša, you’ll have me at your studio next week. I think every woman would love to learn that. If you’re interested, go to www.tantramasaze.com – you’ll find all the details there.

Veronika: We also discussed jealousy between partners during tantric massages. Míša, tell us – has it ever happened that partners got jealous? And is it better to come alone or as a couple?

Michaela: Both have their benefits. Coming alone allows a person to focus fully on themselves. Coming as a couple is about connection and trust – and communication about boundaries. We help couples talk about what they want and where their comfort zones are. If jealousy is present, we can arrange for separate massages.

Veronika: Sometimes that’s even better, so no one ruins their own experience.

Lukáš: On the other hand, separate massages can create some suspense – wondering what’s happening in the next room...

Michaela: True, but the massage itself is so intense that people usually stay focused on their own experience. Afterward, they can reunite – we even have a heart-shaped bath where couples can relax together and let the experience sink in.

Veronika: That sounds amazing. One more thing – can clients choose their masseuse? Are they mostly women or men, and what do clients prefer?

Michaela: Yes, you can choose, and it’s highly recommended – connection and comfort are essential. On our website, we have profiles and photos of all our masseuses and masseurs. Women often prefer to start with a female masseuse – about 60% do – and later, they may try a massage with a man. With a male masseur, the energy is more dynamic and passionate; with a woman, it’s softer and more nurturing. It depends on what you feel drawn to. I always recommend following your intuition.

Veronika: Has it ever happened that a client wanted to have sex with a masseur afterward?

Michaela: Many times. But the tantric massage truly ends with the massage – it doesn’t cross into sexual contact, because that would break the sense of safety and sacredness.

Veronika: There are also some special massages, right? Can you tell us about them?

Michaela: Yes, we have something called Temple Priestesses of Tantra – it’s based on four feminine archetypes: the Mother, the Lover, the Femme Fatale, and the Virgin Priestess. Each brings a different energy and mood. Some clients need nurturing and tenderness, others want adventure or strength. There’s also a tantric bath ritual, where the massage happens in warm water – deeply relaxing and sensual.

Veronika: I can hardly believe all that you offer. And one last cheeky question – are the masseuses nude during the massage? Lukáš really wants to know.

Michaela: Tantra is about naturalness – about seeing nudity as something normal and beautiful. The masseuse can be nude if she feels comfortable and if there’s trust. When the atmosphere is safe, nudity enhances the experience – it adds beauty and authenticity.

Veronika: I love that. Nudity as something natural and human – it lets people drop their masks and just be. That in itself must be healing.

Michaela: Exactly. It’s not about perfect bodies – everyone is welcome as they are. People receive acceptance and a sense of peace with their body.

Veronika: As we wrap up – what services can people find at your studio if they’re facing relationship or intimacy issues?

Michaela: Whether your challenges are emotional or intimate, you can come to us. Besides tantric massages and courses, we also offer therapy and counseling for individuals and couples. Don’t hesitate to reach out – we’re here to help.

Veronika: Exactly – don’t hold things inside. Everything can be resolved. And if you ever need support, visit Tantra masáže Praha.
