BUILDING PLEASURE RITUALS

This is a recorded virtual class. Once you purchase your ticket, we'll email you the details to access the recording.

So often we are our first, and best, lovers. The way we’ve learned to touch ourselves (or not) can effect the way we relate to our own body and our partners’ bodies for life. But spending time alone and focusing on pleasure regularly gets pushed off the schedule.

What would it look like if we took time to focus on our body’s needs? What would it look like if we treated ourselves like our most cherished partner? Touch can release oxytocin, reduce stress, and calm our nervous system — and yes, self touch can do those things too. In this class we’re going to learn ways to make time for ourselves. To learn the ways we like to be touched, and explore the ways our bodies can experience pleasure. We will consider making pleasure a ritual, learn genital massage techniques, and embrace masturbation as a healthy, loving practice.
