Armin C. Heining, who founded GAY-TANTRA in 1992 and who has been living since then in the true sense of the word, has himself trodden an unparalleled path of transformation in his life ("From Benedictine Monk to GAY-TANTRA Coach", see interview).

On the basis of this extraordinary pathway through life, he has gained the ability to empathize with the most diverse aspects of human life and, particularly in the case of gay men, he can offer competent advice, support and direction.

Armin C. Heining has gathered experience, both by working on himself and together with many hundreds of homosexual, bisexual and heterosexual participants using the most varied instruments to achieve lasting healing and wholeness in body, soul and spirit. GAY-TANTRA uses the strongest of these.

GAY-TANTRA combines the exercises and methods in a sound and integrated sequence which allows body, soul and spirit to re-adjust, grow and regain health. GAY-TANTRA conveys these techniques in theory and practice with all thoroughness.

GAY-TANTRA promotes your personal growth, as well as healing your sexual and vital powers, and is in harmony with society at large. Seminar participants are given the opportunity of accepting their same-sex love as something natural and living their daily lives in keeping with it.

GAY-TANTRA has a base of seven specialized instruction and guidance DVDs: Erotic Massage, Genital Massage, Anal und Prostate Massage, Multiple Orgasmic Genital Massage, Multiple Orgasmic Anal and Prostate Massage, Gay Kama Sutra, GAY-TANTRA Ritual und Sexual Ecstasy (as of 01-2013). Additionally, it is based on the profound and worldwide recognized books of Margot Anand Naslednikov, who was for many years the Tantra teacher and mentor of Armin C. Heining

GAY-TANTRA trainings, seminars and courses are, when desired, certificated as continuing education courses for medical and psychological professions. Basic research has been established in collaboration with participants of comparable studies in the heterosexual context.

GAY-TANTRA Workshops, introductory and intensive seminars take place mostly on an annual basis in Amsterdam, Berlin, near Bremen, near Dresden, in Frankfurt, near Graz, in Hamburg, near Kassel, in Cologne, Copenhagen, near Leipzig, in London, Milan, Munich, near Naples, in Nuremberg, near Salzburg, in Vienna und Zurich (subject to alteration).

In 2009 Armin C. Heining opened the GAY-TANTRA Oasis in Berlin, a place where a team of men provide Gaytantra massages for men in an exclusive atmosphere. A Tantra School for gay singles and couples, counselling, gay sex coaching, various rituals and much more are also on offer.
