Come uncover your true desires for relationship and find how to access your sexual essence to create more love in any moment.
**This month’s Theme: The Art of the Sacred Slap**
—————————————————————
Learn playful and heart-based tools that incorporate our sexual essence to wake your partner up! How can you be a demand for your partner’s open heart and highest self at all times while also communicating what you desire? We will practice embodied tools that you can use both in and outside of the bedroom.
We will explore dynamics of masculine/feminine polarity through breathwork, eye-gazing, and movement. After deeply connecting to your body and to others, feminine practitioners will be guided into revealing their heart through a playful slap to help masculine partners become attuned to their quality of presence. Masculine practitioners will be guided to feel into the feminine’s heart and if you don’t feel her heart is open to not consent to the slap. Each person will work with multiple partners, though if you come with your partner you will get more time with that person than the others.
*Note: Masculine ≠ man; Feminine ≠ woman. If you would like to cultivate more presence, direction, and depth in your relationships, sign up for the masculine role. If you would like to cultivate more feeling, pleasure, and erotic energies sign up for the feminine role. We encourage you to explore whatever sexual essence you are most desiring to embody more of.*
How woke is your love? ;-x
**We never condone violence in relationship! These embodied tools are to be used in and through love only! If you or someone you know are experiencing violence in a relationship please contact A Safe Place for more resources: https://www.asafeplace.org/**

Just like in asana yoga you must practice on a regular basis to maintain your flexibility, strength, and concentration, so too must you practice sexual yoga in the same way. Having a one-off experience is fun and a wonderful way to spend time, but if you really want to see change in your relationships, how you feel in your body, and how you relate to sex and love you need to practice often. I offer these mini workshops monthly as a way to support those in community who want to keep their relationships alive and fully embodied. Some practices and themes will overlap and other nuances will change each month.
When we play with the sexual essences of masculine (consciousness) and feminine (energy), we can learn to create love and beauty in any moment. As we learn to fully embody one pole, we can draw out the other pole in our lover and create moments full of depth and spark. As we deepen in this practice of sexual polarity we learn to bring our desires, fears, complaints, hurts, and longings to the world with an artfulness that opens ourselves as well as those we love.
Whether you are in a relationship, single, poly, hetero or LGBTQ+ this workshop will lead you through embodiment and breath practices that open your heart, drop you into desire and consciousness, and express your heart’s deepest yearnings through the tool of your body.
Using practices drawn from authentic relating, sacred masculine/feminine embodiment, inner child work, and therapeutic techniques, this mini-workshop is sure to leave you feeling more open-hearted and in touch with your deepest feelings about what you wish to create in your relationship life and more bodily capacity to create that.
Doors open at 7:15pm. Hard start at 7:30pm. Doors will lock at 7:31pm to create a secure and safe container so we can go deep.
PLEASE ARRIVE BETWEEN 7:15-7:30PM
Couples, singles, and people of all gender and sexual orientations welcome. We will be practicing with masculine and feminine energies so we ask that, regardless of what gender you identify with, you choose ONE pole (masculine or feminine) to work with during the evening. We will strive to create a balance of feminine and masculine practitioners. If you come with a partner please be aware that you may also be practicing with others during the evening. The more you hone the tool of your body for expression and awareness, the more you can bring that back to your partnership to enliven your relationship.
WHAT WE DO:
Feminine practitioners will explore embodying different archetypal aspects of the goddess and masculine practitioners will explore embodying elements of the divine masculine/God consciousness. We will then explore what it is like to embody these energies while connecting to another soul through the lens of polarity. What happens when the embodied divine feminine comes into contact with the embodied divine masculine? Each event there is a different theme and different energies to embody that will be revealed at the event.
MESSAGE TO COUPLES:
You will practice with other people even with you come with a partner, though you will get to experience the more intense or vulnerable moments with your partner. Couples please watch this video for more about coming to this as a couple: https://youtu.be/Q0EIfOJVa20
