ASSFest M25 Rim | Interpersonal Neurobiology of Erotic Growth

*** An ASSFEST M25 Rim event - see here for ALL the juicy details! ***

This three hour workshop will take you through an experiential exploration of how the nine domains of integration as described by Dan Siegel in the powerhouse interdisciplinary framework of Interpersonal Neurobiology relate to the erotic realm in their own lives. Coming away with a felt sense of this lens of understanding within your own bodymind will equip participants with a new tool to apply to support erotic growth within themselves, their partner’s, their client’s or student’s.

Taught by three of the facilitators of the new Interactive Erotic Education Training, this workshop synthesises knowledge from a range of therapeutic, theoretical and teaching modalities. Lorraine, Jules and Sam are somatic sex educators and somatic therapists with backgrounds in sex work. A core tenet of their teaching practice is that growth happens through relationships - come expecting to interact with the stories and experiences of other attendees. You are, of course, welcome to participate to the extent that feels best for you.

As this workshop invites you to bring personal material and your in the moment experience, feel into what might be useful to bracket, and what feels useful to bring into a workshop space. In any case, prepare to get geeky, cheeky, freaky, and perhaps a bit leaky. All experiences are welcome.
