The Art of Intimacy - Working with Polarity in the Time of COVID


4 Week Webinar Series

**This workshop is open to singles, couples, and individuals of any and all sexual orientations

 *There is no nudity or explicit sexual content or activity of any kind

Intimacy and connection are more critical than ever. 

The Covid crisis has forced us apart. And it has created an environment of fear about coming back together.  We can’t do big meetings, we have to be super careful if we go on a date, we have to vet everybody…

This is not without cost…We are sustained by connection and intimacy. But now we’re told, “If you want to be close to people, you are risking your health and potentially your life (and others close to you).”   

How do we navigate connection and intimacy now... when we have to stay physically distant? There is no precedent, no wisdom we can rely on. 

And yet - we’re extremely fortunate… We have technology that allows us to see each other, connect with each other, and yes – create real intimacy. 

We just need to know how to do it.

And when we learn to connect deeper with our hearts (and our sexuality), this internal connection can transform all of our relationships. 

We invite you into an exploration of polarity in connection in order to: 

  • Excavate your inner obstacles to connection & intimacy

  • Free yourself from the conditioning that rules your life, and

  • Express what “lives us” – both in relation to ourselves and our intimate relationships.

Together, we will unpack the Active/Receptive principles of Polarity and discover how both exist within all humans. Once understood, these principles enhance our ability to release our fears and allow ourselves to connect more deeply.

-This workshop will feature group experiences and also Men’s & Women’s breakout sessions-

As Men we will explore what it means to be a man in the modern world and journey bravely into purpose, challenge, and brotherhood. Through physical challenge, meditation and vulnerability practices we come to better understand ourselves in relationship to self, partners and world.  Together we will connect to the core of consciousness and bond as Tribe.

As Women we will gather to find ourselves through sensual movement and the gentle exploration of both our strong and tender places. Together we share deeply in support of each other and (re)claim our truth, our bodies, our hearts, and the delicious super-power of invitation.

In This Workshop We Will

Enhance the interplay between intimacy, sexuality, and communication

Explore polarity as represented by the interplay of Active & Receptive principles
