We’ll be exploring of the art of sensuality and conscious touch, under the colourful backdrop of a galaxy projector, with relaxing scented aromas, and expansive sacred musical soundscapes.This is an opportunity let go of stress and mental chatter, and nourish the mind, body and soul. They’ll be space to give and receive sensuality, within the safety of your own personal boundaries, limits and desires.
We’ll begin with an opening circle where you’ll get to state your intentions. This will be followed by some warm up exercise in pairs and small groups, including wheel of consent practice, to embody and vocalize your ‘no’ ‘maybe’ and ‘yes’All practices are light and playful, and are carried out from a place of mutual consent. These can include, hugging, cuddling, body painting and massage exchanging. Everything is optional, and they'll be space, to be alone present with yourself.
We welcome queer folk of all genders, and non-binary who are single, and couples in relationships. If you want to come along with your partner, and play with them exclusively, that’s completely fine.

“A lovely evening exploring sensuality, with a fantastic energy and playlist. My 1st time attending one of these events. Thank to you everyone who attended.” - J"Me and my husband went to the last one, and found it really nourishing" - S
“I do know what tantra practice is but I didn’t know what to except from this event. I thought it was excellent. If you are single, you can attend and you will learn a lot about yourself. If you’re a couple it will take you deeper into intimacy with yourself and your sacred partner. This event will open you up to give and receive balancing your masculine and feminine. It’s an experience I think everyone should try at least once. I am single and I really surprised myself how open I was with total strangers. Andrew also is an excellent facilitator. Looking forward to the dating event and meet new people xx” – D
