What happens when you combine Tantric and Taoist techniques for building and sharing sexual energy with conscious power exchange and intense sensation? In this participatory workshop we will gleefully push and pervert Tantra into ecstatic new realms.
You'll learn how to combine the heart-filled, spiritually energizing techniques of Tantra with the intense stimulation and heightened awareness of SM and you'll have the opportunity to find the blend you like best. You'll learn:
*how to fly into ecstatic, timeless states of consciousness,
*how to create your own personal container of breath, safety and comfort,
*techniques for traveling longer and further, plus
*necessary skills for safe landings back on earth.
You'll also get to play with some rope and get and/or give some intense sensation.
Please bring 12-foot length of 1/4"-3/8" rope and a blindfold
Breath is your greatest source of energy and aliveness. It can produce so much pleasure, it will amaze you. Once you become familiar with moving erotic energy around with your breath, you'll find all your erotic encounters to be much more fulfilling. Your orgasms will be longer and deeper. You will share a more authentically intimate connection with a partner. You'll even find yourself using breath techniques in non-erotic situations to bring erotic energy to more and more areas of your life.
