About this Retreat
Wind Malin Disse was born in Berlin, Germany. From the age of 3 years old he has been living in Ecuador with exception of a view years in Switzerland. He graduated as an Anthropology in Ecuador, and went to Germany for advanced studies as a Migration Manager. Besides Wind loves extreme sports and to play music as a DJ on festivals.
Wind´s path as an anthropologist, artist and Yoga Teacher leads him to be seen as a cultural mediator, a bridge between worlds. He has been teaching the traditional Kaula Tantra Yoga in many workshops. In 2020 he joined a teacher training in the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center in the south India. In Durga’s Tiger School ® he teaches Applied Tantra Wisdom, Meditation and Psychology of Chakras beside Kaula Tantra Yoga and Shamanism. He is a certified Yoga Alliance and Yoga Alliance International Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500) and one of the lead teachers of the Durga’s Tiger School ® Yoga Teacher Training.
Due to his deep interest in shamanism, he has contacted many shamans of the Amazon and Andean region of Ecuador, and worked with them to understand their traditions. From 2009 Wind has been invited to learn more about the shamanic tradition of the Cofán- A’i socio-culture and ended up being accepted as apprentice by the shaman Don Avelino Quenama.
Wind´s thesis as Anthropologist was about the theme: Orality, practices and symbols of the A´i shamanism, including the relation with visionary plants. Don Avelino gave him the authorization to do his own ceremonies with the yage medicine and share his knowledge.
Since then, Wind Malin Disse has attended and guided many shamanic ceremonies in order to keep on learning and help others to enter into a shamanic state of consciousness that allows shamanic healing.
It was the Tsáchilas who introduced her to the first cacao plant in all its stages, since then she has worked with agricultural projects, being able to learn the importance of connection of earth to cosmos..
Feeling the call of the Ilaló back in 2020, she was accredited with 500 hours RYT at Durga’s Tiger School; since then she works as a Kaula Tantra Yoga teacher, supporting meditations, and other diverse classes in addition to managing the space in Ecuador.
Durgas Tiger School was the seed that opened the tantric path, ¨ Tantra says do anything you want with consciousness and love. This has become her life philosophy. ¨ Tantra helps me to walk the path of the heart¨
Jhoselyn has taken an intensive Tantra course with the Sky Dancing Tantra Institute exploring the meaning of Love and Ecstasy, she is a Reiki practitioner and holds a bachelor in Business and French, a Master in Agribusiness and Rural Development.
In 2017, she decided to dive into the question of “Who am I?” which took her on a journey through psychotherapy, breath work, meditation, Buddhism, yoga, energy work, and Tantra. After leaving her home and career, she went to Nepal to learn traditional Tantra yoga and since then she’s been living a nomadic life.
Her journey took her from Asia to Ecuador, where she completed 500 hr training at Durga’s Tiger Yoga School® in 2023. Feeling very connected with the vision of the school, as well as admiring the teaching methods, the decision to be part of the Durga’s Tiger Riders Team came to her naturally.
She has completed 900 hours of yoga teacher training. (Hatha and Tantra yoga) She is also a breath work facilitator, meditation guide, Usui Reiki and Cosmic Energy practitioner.

KAULA TANTRA YOGA
is rooted in Uttara Shaivism, or Kashmiri Shaivism, one of six Śiva traditions. This is a unique sequence that follows a lineage of 5,000 years. The series taught at Durga’s Tiger School is delivered directly from the teachings of Bhagavan Shanmuka Anantha Natha at Shri Kali yoga, in India.
This practice works through deep relaxation where students learn the feeling of flowing into asana without struggle, while each asana is practiced in a slow manner to build patience and awareness of body movement. In this way, each individual finds their unique way of expressing the asana without the pressure of competition or ‘performing perfectly’.
Tantra Yoga facilitators approach students as whole human beings and discourage ‘isolating’ or forcing muscles. Their priority is to hold a space of acceptance and love, with reserved guidance when necessary.
This type of yoga is a meditative flow, completed by the practice of bandha holds, pranayama, mantra chanting, and Samadhi, through seated meditation to develop a deeper form of yogic understanding.
During their time at Durga’s Tiger School, students will explore the tantra yogic lifestyle, philosophy, and arts.
HATHA YOGA
In Hatha Yoga practice students move the stagnation of the body and mind. Through asana, meditation, pranayama and yogic philosophy we meet our physical and spiritual strength that cultivates the energy that empowers our lives. This practice is complimentary to Tantra Yoga as it gives students a perspective yogic style that comes from the evolution of traditional tantra yoga, enabling students to gain a deeper understanding of both Hatha and Tantra.
(select courses will feature partner yoga)
KUNDALINI AWARENESS TECHNIQUES
Through Kundalini yoga, students learn another approach to energy work in yoga. Students explore pranayama, chakras theory, the concept and work of the Kundalini energy. Students explore and cultivate the energy of the two poles, masculine and feminine inside of themselves and all around.
Please note: we don’t train the modern Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan.
DURGA'S TIGER DANCE
Durga’s Tiger Dance is a form of movement developed by Iris Disse based on tantric energy work and techniques of “liberation of the voice”.
When we TURN ON to feeling, we allow things to move within us, old patterns become visible to be dissolved, fears are slowly disempowered, there is a BANG! and our inner potential... unleashed.
We invite you not to judge the feelings that arise but allow your inner witness to guide your experience.
"I dance with Durga´s Tiger. My demons are moved, emerge, and dissolve in the light of breath, voice, and movement. My voice makes every cell vibrate."
SHAMANISM & CONNECTION WITH NATURE
As we are living in Ecuador with a huge American Indian population, students have the opportunity to learn about Andean culture, its Cosmovision, and its similarities with the Tibetan Tantric tradition.
The parallels are slowly unveiled, weaving together both understandings of energy, astrology, subtle anatomy, and physiology of the bodies.
The TEMAZCAL is part of the program as a come-together and healing ritual
The Intention of the Durga’s Tiger School Temazcal is to allow Healing, energetical cleansing and Last but not least to allow the TTC Groups to connect as the spiritual community that we are. This is why it is a community Temazcal.
Shamanic Clown — Between Ritual & Play is an energetic fusion of techniques such as improvisation, clowning, dancing, musical/rhythm work, meditation, and practical shamanism. Through these exercises, you can integrate the foundations of ART into LIFE.
Some themes we work on are connecting with the inner child, connecting with intuition, developing the right brain activity to enhance lateral thinking, releasing old patterns and blockages, opening senses to the present moment, and group work that fosters loving, compassionate ways of relating.
With these skills you begin to increase your creativity and may open to a new perspective completely.
APPLIED TANTRIC WISDOM
These classes are a powerful opportunity for self-discovery through dynamic group and partner work.
Please note: there is no nudity or sexual contact
We come together to open to life; learning to embrace the dual nature of reality, dancing between beauty, chaos, magic, intensity, and intimacy — we begin to make a clear connection between yoga, sacred sexuality, and art.
How can I integrate the liveliness of new experiences into my everyday life and relations?
INTUITIVA ANTOMY AND PHISIOLOGY
We will approach the vision and methodology of the Kaula Tantra yoga practice in these classes. We will develop a connection with our inner body intelligence, learn how to read it better, and act according to its current needs. It’s about the combined powers of the mind and the physical body and the effect of being totally in harmony with the messages we perceive from our bodies in each moment.
We will learn the main principles of tantra philosophy, the Ayurvedic knowledge, alignment, Pranayama to understand the traditional yoga practice and its benefit on the whole human being in all its levels- physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
MANTRA CHANT AND SACRED SONGS
Mantras, the science of sound, in Tantra, represent a powerful tool for the liberation of the mind and connection with higher states of consciousness. We explore different mantras during our meditation practices, mantra chanting circles, and yoga practice.
We use mantras and sacred songs of indigenous cultures to connect with the spirits of nature and the mystery of creation.
The teacher training also involves chanting spiritual “come together” songs from different cultures.
Students explore the vibration that the sound creates within us and at the same time they learn about the use of the voice as a tool to guide people into yoga practice.
PARTNER YOGA
We will discover the joy and the importance of support and be supported, through this experiencing the delight of giving and receiving. The challenge is, how do you cultivate and care for your sacred space, but also nurture your partner’s needs and desires?
In these classes we will continue to work with the asanas of the Kaula Tantra series; through the tantric wisdom approach, we cultivate focus in presence, senses, connection, and body communication. Through these functions, we enter into the dance of Shiva and Shakti.
(select courses will feature partner yoga)
YOGIC WALKING MASSAGE
Derived from Ayurvedic wisdom this ancient foot massage was used to prepare warriors for battle as well as open the physical and energetic bodies for the Yoga practice.
Working with partners it’s a very effective, meditative, and intuitive way to give and receive before the Yoga practice. The massage activates important Marma Points as well as softens the muscles.
Karma Yoga is part of the learning process of community life.
We help each other to maintain a common space, and by focusing energy in the collective, we come together to maintain a high vibrational space.
Through karma yoga, we keep in contact with the Earth (PachaMama) and her fruits while we contribute to the well-being of the collective environment.
Living in the ashram enables students to focus intensively on their training, away from everyday tasks and distractions; allowing them to fully immerse themselves in a process of learning and self-discovery.
An energetic group environment is created, enabling students to share their experiences and learning processes; in turn, collectively deepening their understanding of tantra and yogic practices.
FACILITATORS
We are an international team composed of about 20 passionate and motivated people with amazing backgrounds specializing in various fields and aspects of yoga.
Each teacher comes with a unique design of class that is perfectly integrated into the main teacher training choreography that is the base of our program. The schedule of teachers is not a fixed plan, as the school is confident that each teacher will deliver what is best for each course.
We are a rotating team to keep the energy high and fresh in the trainings during the whole year.
We ask that you enter the course with an open mind to EXPERIENCE and allow each encounter to guide you to a deeper understanding within your SELF. The knowledge gained through experience is a core part of the Tantric perspective and for this reason, the course is not entrenched in theory.
Extras & weekend offers
Day trips to hot springs, the mountains or to Otavalo Market etc.
Shamanic experiences (power plants, Temazcal, etc) can be explored after the training
