Workshop & Sharing Sessions:
Tantric & Sensual massage - Level 1
(Singles welcome)

Location Bugis
Mon 20 Jan 2020 8:00pm

The pace of life in a modern city can be too fast for healthy mental & physical balance.

These sessions focus on how tantric & sensual practices can help in stress management, relaxation, physical & mental re-centering that will help us to better cope with modern living.

As a partner activity, sensual massage also touches on how we can be better communicators & lovers, as well as learn valuable life skills on how to please & be pleased.

First of a 3 part series, this series is designed to be an introduction to the craft, it is co-shared with both giver and receiver perspectives (receiver or giver may be any gender) so we'll also learn more about this from multiple points of view.

Expect insightful, thought-provoking discussions and instructor guidance that will leave you with practical skills you can immediately apply after each session!

Slightly different from previous level 1 workshops, this one will be a more singles-friendly event. Previously, couples are encouraged to join us, and the content assumes a certain level of comfort and connection between partners attending.

We have assembled a group of amazing massage bunnies that can be paired with singles to give great feedback about what you are doing right, what feels good, how to adjust your techniques for better effect etc. As always, it's a practical session so be prepared to get your hands oily and get that muscle memory locked in!

This session would be geared towards learning the basics of sensual massage as a single, no assumptions that you will be massaging the same person all the time, no assumptions on prior contact or comfort level with the receiver etc. We'll thus provide more guidance on giving sensual massages to someone who has never received a sensual massage (from you) - how to help build rapport, trust, observe and how to respond appropriately.

Please note - couples are still, as always, welcome to join us! (Couples that join will practice with each other)

There is a practical hands on component, so we do encourage the following:
1) Singles will be paired with a massage bunny for practice on massage components only, it will be based on mutual consent with boundaries strictly enforced. Vetting required.
2) Participants should be comfortable with nudity in a group context - mainly back / topless as massage components will focus on those areas.

Date: Mon 20 Jan 2020

Who should attend?
Open-minded, body-positive individuals (singles or couples) interested in learning more about sensual and tantric massage.

Interaction Level: Comfortable with nudity, partners will practice with each other. Consent based touch only.

As the workshop is highly intimate and involves touching another party, registrations are open only to screened / vouched parties and physical contact will be kept between partners or your practice bunny (if an instructor wants to help demonstrate on someone attending, consent to do so will be sought).

Due to the nature of the workshop, it’s recommended that you’re comfortable being nude/semi-nude in the presence of others.

Instructions to participants / Requirements: Yoga mats are available onsite, however if you prefer, you may bring your own yoga mat(s) as a base for you to lie down & practice on. You may also like to bring several towels to be used as a base on top of the yoga mats; to cover / keep warm body parts during the session; and for washing up (after). Massage oils will be provided but you are welcome to bring your own.

There isn’t a specific dress code - come comfortably attired or in work attire - it’s fine! However, for the practice segment we suggest the following for practical purposes: Givers should change into tights or shorts, topless (as parts of the practice involve arms and chest contact); Receivers should be covered with a towel at the waist, nude or wearing underwear/panties.

About the instructors:
Mike has always been fascinated with the human mind and it's intricacies.

Having started with traditional forms and styles of massages, which he became proficient in, he started seeking new challenges. Thus began his exploratory adventures in the world of sensual massages where he's constantly growing, learning, and honing his craft. He also likes experimenting with incorporating elements of kink such as primal play, domination, and sensory play into sensual massage. Currently co-authoring at www.sensualmassageart.com together with Mike and is always interested in meeting and sharing with like-minded people.
