Experience what Tantra can bring out for you
· This two-day workshop focuses on exploring play, sensuality and connection with like-minded men.
· It offers the ideal place to share, learn and discover the power of touch, consent and intimacy.
· A safe space, where you can come into more contact with your body and mind and experience more heart based connection with other men.The workshops and guided meditations will take you through a process of working in pairs with other men to learn simple massage techniques to slow down and enjoy the connection you have with another man as you wake up your senses to the bliss of touch.
We will be working naked and will have an undressing ritual to explore how to slowly arrive at being undressed in our first workshop together. All touch is based on consent and in each paring you work in you can define how and where you are comfortable being touched.
· Learn how to bring an erotic massage to another man’s body, cock and balls without the rush to orgasm.
· Explore how to self-pleasure your own body by bringing this sensual, erotic and caring touch to yourself.
· This is done in the context of Tantra energy work, where we build this sexual energy and then circulate it through your body with breath work, meditation and visualisation to help release energy blocks so that you feel more energised and vibrant.There will not be any ejaculation during the workshops.
During, before and after the workshops we have full access to use the swimming pool, sauna and hot tub.

Meet Your Hosts:
Pinto
Driven by a natural inclination towards sensitivity and touch, I've always found great joy and relaxation in both giving and receiving massages. My travels through Latin America and Europe in my early twenties fuelled my desire to transform those experiences into a fulfilling career that encapsulated the calm, healing, culture, and adventure I had encountered.
My journey has allowed me to merge my passion for massage and Tantra, creating a unique approach that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit while encouraging deep relaxation and self-discovery.
NIck
Nick's journey began with 12 years of celibacy and 7 years as a Buddhist monk. Upon returning to London, he sought to reconnect with his life force energy and body through massage and Tantra trainings. After completing a 2-year Biodynamic Massage program, Nick continued to deepen his understanding of ancient wisdom by studying with teachers from Tibetan Tantra and Shaivism lineages. His unique approach to sharing these energies empowers others while cultivating inner peace.
