SUMMARY:Exploring Intimate Touch (Sydney)
DESCRIPTION:a workshop for gay and sexually diverse men\nfor men who desire a different kind of connection\nThe ‘Exploring Intimate Touch’ workshop is an opportunity to gather together and take a step into a deeper understanding of our erotic\, playful and sensual body. Exploring ‘Betty Martin’s Wheel of Consent’ we will learn how the hidden dynamics of touch\, when unlocked and brought into consciousness can bring powerful insights. Connecting us to our deeper qualities of gratitude\, surrender\, integrity and being of service to another. \nWhen left hidden away\, touch can become unconscious\, disembodied and even harmful. \nDuring this two-day workshop we will take time to immerse ourselves into the four dynamics of touch; Giving\, Receiving\, Taking and Allowing. \nTogether we’ll create a safe and boundaried space to work on each other’s bodies and become more skilled at the rich and juicy qualities held within each of these dynamics. We’ll gain a greater understanding of how consent\, or the lack of consent always changes our experience of touch. \nDuring this weekend you will begin to: \n\nLearn how to recognise your boundaries and work within consent.\nHave a deeper understanding of the dynamics of different types of touch.\nLearn how to use breath\, movement and sound to spread erotic sensation throughout the body and increase your capacity for pleasure.\nGain new techniques for soft and erect genital touch.\nBuild a healthier relationship towards our self and our bodies.\nDevelop intimate and caring relationships with other men.\nAfter participating in this workshop you will have a fresh\, new\, way of bringing touch into your world.\n\nThis workshop will primarily be unclothed. There will be full body touch and we will work in a large group\, in pairs and individually. It is important that you are able to sit on the floor comfortably for extended periods of time with both hands free for touch sessions. \nabout the facilitator\ncurt mason\nIs a Certified Sexological Bodyworker\, qualified and experienced Person Centred Counsellor and Gestalt Psychotherapist.
