Join us at an island hideaway, to reconnect with yourself, with other loving men, and with mother earth.

Conscious men will come together in sacred circle to explore the core fundamentals of tantra. Both beginners and experienced practitioners will share ancient practices that invite us to:

become more aware of the energetic body that permeates our physical body;
communicate compassion and caring through our touch;
explore grounding and nourishing our body through gentle yoga, playful, improvised movement;
hone our verbal skills of mutual consent and deep listening as well as nonverbal cues to deepen trust;
learn breathwork and meditation techniques that can be used in partners or groups to help enhance connection and enter spaces of profound openness
share several "erotic experiments" that illuminate and nourish the deepest parts of our soul.
