Intimacy & Connection

Relationship events, tantra workshops, sacred sexuality, and pleasure education

The most expansive category, and deliberately so. Relationship events, sacred sexuality workshops, non-monogamy support groups, tantra for beginners, erotic writing classes. These are spaces for exploring connection in whatever form that takes for you: solo, partnered, or in community. Curiosity is the only prerequisite.
