Presenters for Recognizing Your Inherent Splendor
Audrey Ichida is a life coach and facilitator who co-directed 4 Hawaii (neo-)Tantra Festivals and has studied classical Tantra with teachers in the lineages of Abhinavagupta and Naropa. She has also participated in multiple East Coast and Hawaii New Culture camps. She is a certified Integral Coach® through New Ventures West, an Enneagram Teacher, a scientist, a dancer, an erotic story-teller, and a mother. All of these identities, held lightly, serve her personal vision to support humanity in building a life we love to live. Teaching the Enneagram, coaching, and living Tantra are ways Audrey honors her daily vow to “nurture vitality in myself and others.” As a facilitator she brings her understanding that everyone is teacher and student simultaneously. Knowledge is transmitted through way of being. And Tantra is the fierce spiritual path where illusions are slain and the crisp penetrating light of the soul shines in each moment.
