Do you have to be sexually attracted to men to do the workshops?
All sexual orientations are welcome. We do not ask and we do not need to know. The work is about erotic energy and pleasure, not about sexual attraction or activity.

How will this help me in my erotic life?
You will become aware of the many layers of eroticism and how to use them to enhance your life. You can also share this awareness with your partners and friends.

What if I run into someone I know?
Say hello. They are there to learn and experience the same as you. What we find is that most everyone comes into our workshops with a variety of fears. You are not alone. Being in a safe space of exploration and acceptance within a group of men can be one of the most healing and profound experiences of your life. The question is ... will you allow your fears to limit our life ... or will you dive into your fears to see the beauty of what is behind it?

Will they ever say "pick a partner" because I'm afraid I would be the last picked?
All the work is done by random selection in a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment that removes fears of rejection or isolation.

As a man I worry about if I get an erection or don’t get one.
Erections are part of being a man and they are welcome but not required at any workshop. There is never a time during the workshop where you are required or not required to have an erection.

What if I ejaculate or have an orgasm? Am I thrown out?
No. The work is focused on building erotic energy and not about ejaculating. If you do ejaculate or orgasm, simply enjoy it and continue with the workshop. No attention will be brought to your experience. We offer a safe environment of which you can feel safe in experiencing whatever it is that you experience.

I heard it is a big orgy.
It is not. The workshops are about erotic energy, deep connections with other participants and self-discovery. The workshops aren't about sexual activity.
