Divine Masculine.

Take your practice to the next level, at this incredibly safe and sacred
space for hands-on experiences of energy and connection-time with a partner.

then exercises with each other to help us bond, practice surrender, and
play like children, and finally, guided instruction on Sensual Yoni
Massage.

Somatic Awareness: Sex and Creativity

9-10 (free with admission to Essence)

May 5th, 2012 | 9:00pm – 10:00pm, doors at 8:45pm

In this hour long body based workshop we will explore the merging of sex and creativity. Using individual and partner exercises: sensate focus, tantra meditation and movement we will feel our bodies come alive with sensation, laughter and play. From a deep somatic state we end the class with a genital self-image drawing. You will walk away with new tools in Somatic Awareness practices and feel deeply energized and artistically expressed.
