About Reinoud
Founder Reinoud Eleveld (1956) has a mission: to build a sexually safe civilization. A society that neither suppresses sexuality nor allows it to be boundless and transgressive. The sexual revolution has brought many positive changes, but after a revolution, a new civilization must be built. Otherwise, sexual liberation ultimately leads to sexual addiction and systematic boundary violations. In a sense, we have slowly but surely reached a point where sex is becoming unsafe again, and our children are being hunted in an uncivilized manner.
The Foundation of Existence
Fortunately, beyond suppression or boundlessness, we have a third choice: voluntary boundaries. When you allow your sexual energy—nothing less than the creative force of reality—to flow freely through you in a safe and conscious way, without the compulsion to project it onto another, it has a profoundly positive effect on your energy and health. This way of experiencing sexuality is known as transformational sexuality or mono-cultivation—an ancient Taoist practice from China. It is essential for anyone seeking greater vitality, consciousness development, and wisdom.
Secrets of the Feathered Serpent
Reinoud discovered this knowledge during his years-long quest, which began when he was fifteen. At that age, he decided to become a sorcerer to make his surroundings safer. His many travels eventually led him to the Toltecs in Mexico, where he encountered The Secrets of the Feathered Serpent. Reinoud quickly realized that magic requires energy—a lot of energy. And learning to work with sexual energy plays a crucial role in that. However, the secrets of the Feathered Serpent remained hidden from him.
The Power of Sexual Energy
Until, in the 1980s, he found what he had truly been searching for among the Taoist Internal Alchemists of the Nei Dan Kung tradition: the power of sexual energy to become safer—for oneself, for others, and for the planet.
“I learned that we all possess an inexhaustible source of energy, right within ourselves. This source has been with us from the moment of conception and remains with us until we die. It is the sexual energy that not only brought our life force into existence but also allows us to generate new life force throughout our lives.”
Reinoud’s Teachers
Reinoud trained for many years under Annette Derksen, who was the first Senior Healing Tao Instructor in the Netherlands, trained by the renowned sifu Mantak Chia. Reinoud became the second senior instructor and underwent intensive training with teachers such as Mantak Chia, Michael Winn, Juan Li, Chong Mi Mueller, and Ron Nansink. He lived among Taoists in Asia and, over the years, developed his own interpretation of Nei Dan Kung, or Internal Alchemy.
Top Athletes
Reinoud has now been a sifu (teacher) and a source of knowledge for many years. His life mission became passing on this wisdom in a safe and complete way. Through the platforms Taotraining Nederland and Valley Orgasm, Reinoud shares his knowledge both online and in live sessions with thousands of women and men in the Netherlands and Belgium.
In his own words: “I would have loved to have had access to this knowledge when I was fifteen. Now, it is here for you. Feel invited to use it—for your own benefit, for others, and for the greater whole.”
To make the practical application of his knowledge visible and tangible, Reinoud also started coaching athletes.
He began teaching both amateur and elite athletes through Iron Shirt of Golf, working with golf coach Mette Hageman and tennis coach Hans Hendrickx. Additionally, he started producing online programs to give as many people as possible the opportunity to learn to practice sports “in a beautiful dream,” as Reinoud himself describes it.
The Seven Veils
And his quest is far from over. Drawing from various mystery schools, he pieced together fragments of knowledge about love and relationships into The Seven Veils, with self-love and mono-cultivation as its foundation. This marks a new step toward a sexual civilization that makes safe and flowing sexuality accessible to this and future generations.
Together with Isabel Timmers, he co-authored the books The Little Seven Veils and The Seven Veils: The Handbook. They also wrote The Art of Self-Love together. With Daan Jacobs, Reinoud wrote On the Path to Wisdom and Five Forms of Immortality—each title finding its way to a broad audience.
Sifu, Author, and Speaker
With his innovative perspective on sexuality, deeply rooted in ancient wisdom, Reinoud inspires not only as a sifu and author but also as a highly sought-after speaker in various podcasts, such as those of Janneke van der Meulen, World Champion Coastal Rowing, and Kukuru by Giel Beelen.
Interviews with him have also appeared in publications such as de Volkskrant, Psychologie Magazine, Human Magazine, Happinez, and Linda, and he was featured in the TV program Boeddha in de Polder.
