Making Love with the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine (NYC)

Edd will create a space where it will be safe to embrace your own unique balance of the divine feminine and the divine masculine: how yin are you? How yang are you? How versatile are you?

We are all a mixture of yin and yang qualities. What are your masculine strengths? What about your feminine strengths? Let us embrace our own expression of these energies and the energies shared by the others in the room.

We will review Tantric principles that will help you energetically tap into the divine feminine and the divine masculine.

Exploring where you feel vulnerable; where you feel empowered; what is your authentic gender self expression and how does it manifest in your sexual encounters?

We will begin where we left off last Monday with a variety of fun s3x positions, invite participants to explore them together, and then end in a group circle.

Tickets are $50 per person. Pay cash at the door or use most payment apps. Email yogiedd@gmail.com for details and to get materials in advance. Mention 10/7 event in the subject line.

Location: TBA, NYC.

Desire, Consent, Intentional Touch - A Deep Exploration

A 3 ½ hour event for self-identified men of exploring tantra, conscious touch, loving intimacy and exotic sensual pleasures in a group setting with other men.

Imagine being completely safe and secure, beyond even the possibility for harm and, at the same time, just as completely open, vulnerable, raw and primal such that you've disappeared entirely into the ecstatic ocean of sensing and feeling. This event invites a start down that road through the exploration of the ecstasy that's there in your body at this very moment and every other moment of your life. We've learned to turn away from it, mute it, hide it - this event is an invitation to explore beyond that conditioning.

At this event you'll be exploring your desires for touch, your capacity to open to, give and receive intentional embodied touch and your consent itself. You'll discover your body's innate capacity for pleasure, wisdom and ecstasy through giving and receiving intentional touch and through the process of identifying and asking for what you really want.

You'll discover how consent feels in your body and explore the ecstasy of how to show up fully as both a giver and receiver of touch. This exploration will be invited from different perspectives - you on you, you on other, other on you - within a strong container of consent.

You will be gently guided and powerfully held on this exploration. The program is great if you want to connect more deeply with yourself and other men in a loving and sensual way that is more intimate than the way men typically meet.

The focus is on building a foundation of intimacy, connection, love, sensuality, acceptance and openness that is spiritual and at times interweaving with your sexual energy. A focus on the sensual and sometimes sexual connections with an open and loving heart that welcomes all. Here is the possibility to learn more about yourself and to learn more about the basics of Tantra.

More Details:

For the first part of the event participants will remain clothed to focus on and, with guidance, develop the fundamentals of identifying desires, establishing consent and opening to giving/ receiving intentional touch.

For the second part of the event, the carefully guided touch experiments continue and participants will be invited to become as naked as they wish, including not at all.

During both parts you'll be randomly paired with one other participant to explore your desires, consent and the experience of touch itself. There will be multiple rounds of exploration that will allow for pairings with as many men in the room as possible in the time we have.

This will be a judgement-free, body-positive experience. Sexual arousal might occur or even be likely, it is natural and will not be shamed. You will be reminded to respect everyone's boundaries and to honor your own boundaries.

Admission: $60 cash at the door, Eventbrite or Venmo @Yogiedd (4504). Please arrive 5 - 15 minutes before class start time.

Recommended: come freshly cleaned and washed and avoid strong fragrances; do not come intoxicated; do not come unless you are symptom-free of any potentially communicable infections. Hand sanitizer is always available in the studio.

Level II Tantra for Men, Experience Required
Apr
16
3:00 PM15:00

Level II Tantra for Men, Experience Required

When: Sunday, April 16, from 3 - 6 PM (please plan to arrive 15 minutes early)

Tickets: $80 per person, purchase on Eventbrite: https://tantra_II_apr16.eventbrite.com

Prerequisite: Attendees are asked to attend the Intro to Tantra with Mark Tantra on Thursday, 4/13/2023 at 7 pm, or have previous experience attending Tantra workshops, along with a thorough understanding of consent, boundaries, and self-care.

Program: Mark and Edd will apply their basic Tantric practices within an actual session and take them to the next level. They will also demonstrate additional Tantric practices that we will organically incorporate into the experience as we move naturally with the flow of our energies.

Mark and Edd will demonstrate several vignettes of Tantric mini-session. After each one, we will discuss what was presented, what we experienced, and what the participants witnessed.

The intention is to take the basic practices of Tantra, draw from our varied trainings and experiences, and take things to the next level, while using the principles of Tantra. For this type of workshop, it is beneficial for the group dynamics for everyone to learn to work past their conditioning, fears and judgments. In addition, another important aspect of Tantra is communicating consent and boundaries. We will not be teaching these basic principles on Sunday. This is why there is a prerequisite for this workshop. The participants are expected to have a good working knowledge of how to navigate their interactions without much help from the facilitators.

You must understand consent and boundaries and be able to respond to invitations to try all kinds of deep intimacy. You might want to consider these questions before registering:

  • Can you say no with a gentle heart and yes with a full heart based on what you desire?

  • Are you willing to give others a chance to touch you and let them into your heart even for just a few minutes?

  • Will you suspend judgments that are based on superficial criteria?

  • Are you willing and able to negotiate common ground for any interaction or encounter with someone?

Icebreaker, Welcome and intro

About Mark Tantra: Mark lives in Vancouver and has graduated as a Tantra Teacher and Coach from the Tantra 4 Gay Men School in the UK. His passion is to hold powerful loving space for men to experience the deepest parts of themselves. This calling is connected to his own spiritual practice and development as much as it is a “giving back” to provide opportunities for men to experience even a taste of what they truly are. His combination of classical non-dual Shaiva and Neo tantras, Ayurveda, and Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga practices, the strength of a community of practitioners, and most especially the descent of grace have transformed his being and moves him to want to share this joy with other men who are seeking deeper intimacy and connection.

About Yogi Edd: Edd lives in Jersey City and has received a Certificate in Tantra from the Tantra 4 Gay Men School in the UK. He has been teaching nude yoga for men plus Tantra since 2016. Yoga, in a very real sense, saved his life; and Tantra has filled his life with all of his secret heart's desires. You can read all about his journey throughout his website, MensTantra.com
