OUR TIME TOGETHER

Integrating our polarity as an invitation to discover our wholeness.
Like a lotus flower existence we also emerge from the swamp, we don’t need to chose or denied it, we can embrace it all, the brightness of the light and the depth of the shadow. The lotus flower is a reminder of the potencial we all have to flower, to be reborn again but this time recognizing, validating, integrating, embracing our light and our darkness and everything in between or around.
Our bodies will be the landscape were the magic will happen. Integration comes by building bridges, creating safe containers to express our essence, connecting with the sacredness of the shadow, moving our flesh and bones to rewrite our stories, a narrative that allows us to embrace our totality. This will be an experience that invites you to weave the depth of your roots with the light of your wings, it will be a journey to welcome yourself home in new ways.Are you ready to discovery who can you be if you are allowed to welcome all of your parts???

Exploring the darkness of were the sparkle shines, bringing presence were the eyes can not see because of the darkness, weaving a collective tissue to support our journey to integrate the wisdom of the sacred polarity.

This workshop is an invitation to claim safety in our first territory, our body. Somatic explorations to bring awareness and sensitivity, Contact improvisation as a creative space to cultivate presence and Sacred intimacy to awaken the presence of our heart will be the main ingredients for our journey

How do we get in touch with our true desires? How do we get past our shame in owning our desires? Once we know what to ask for, how do we get what we want? We are often reluctant to ask directly for what we want. Maybe we are not clear on what we want. Or are afraid of rejection. Or afraid they will say yes, yikes!

This is a playful experiment exploring our fantasies and desires. Finding our way to be true to ourselves and getting our needs met. With a wide permission field and a tight container, together we can go to those places you have not yet dared to go, but want to…..

In this laboratory, we anonymously share our deepest desires and most shameful sexual fantasies. Then there is the opportunity to act these out with any of us participating in various roles, or simply witnessing. Think Family Constellations meets Sexy Temple with complete freedom of expression. There will be the opportunity to be witnessed claiming your desires and fantasies. Any shame and embarrassment will be witnessed without judgment. We will hold each other with love and compassion.

Sexual expression and engagement are likely in this container. This intensive invites a more advanced level of scene work and offers an opportunity to push your edges. We are constructing a safe and supportive container that seeks to hold both the crunchy bits of edge work and the exploration of pleasure with loving compassion and playfulness.

The Fool is the beginning and end of the major arcana of Tarot- designated to the number zero “0” -the infinite loop, the same shape as “O” (in Obscurity and Obscene).

The subversive magic of the clown is to play with paradox and to stretch the spectrum of ordinary into extraordinary. In this workshop we will play with the power of the perverse- exploring the allure of an alter ego, touching into the eroticism of the exiled and the sexy of silly.

This workshop is the helix of my experience as a professional dominatrix and clown. Its like if Authentic Relating, Clown and Kink had a baby. Come ready to play with all our parts!

Hunting What Haunts Me is a three-part journey into the subtle shadows that follow us—the stories we inherited, the fears that tighten our voice, the desires that keep knocking. This proposal invites participants to approach what haunts them with presence rather than avoidance, using somatic, poetic, and playful tools to meet their inner terrain with curiosity.

The offering includes three interconnected sessions:

1 — FOAM: Immersive Storytelling Ceremony
A sensorial, intimate ritual that works directly with shame and vulnerability. Through guided listening, darkness, and collective imagination, participants meet themselves and each other gently. Foam creates a soft landing where people can be seen without shrinking or exploding.

2 — The Obscene Body: A Playful Inquiry
An exploration of what each person considers “obscene,” understood not as pornographic but as that which stays offstage. Using body, voice, and writing, we investigate the edges of secrecy, exposure, and permission—making space for the parts of the self that long to be expressed.

3 — Vulnerability as Courage
A session dedicated to the heart as a site of openness rather than weakness. Through movement, meditation, and witnessing practices, participants distinguish collapse from courageous presence.

This proposal speaks directly to Touch&Play’s questions: What do we hide, and why? What haunts us? How do we stand in our truth without dominating or disappearing?

This workshop is an immersion into the territories we often deny: our wounds, our dramas, victimhood, anger, fear, dark desires, what is “wrong,” what we have learned to hide. The shadow is not an enemy, but an immense reservoir of creative energy. Everything we reject in ourselves becomes raw material for our transformation.

Through the free movement and improvisation of Dance Therapy and Biodanza, we open a safe space to face what we try to avoid.
Can I see my shadow? Do I accept it or deny it?
Recognizing it is reclaiming power. Integrating it is ceasing to fragment ourselves.
When we inhabit our vulnerability—that inner serpent, that culturally imposed “sin,” that unspeakable thing—we begin to release a torrent of desire that had been trapped in the corners of our bodies.

“Dancing My Shadow” proposes a journey where pain becomes drive, where weight becomes rhythm, where discomfort becomes language.
The shadow is an outlet for passion: when we move it, surrender, power, and freedom emerge. We stop fighting against ourselves and allow that darkness to become our compass.

This workshop reminds us that we are whole: light and shadow, intuition and chaos, will and wound.
By integrating all of this, we stop being frustrated and discover that we are capable of supporting ourselves, expressing ourselves, and moving forward from a more honest and fulfilled place.
Here, the shadow is not corrected: it is danced, honored, and transformed.

Divine expression of the soul, mind and body; held together in divine union.
Ecstasy states of being: Sexy, mysterious, powerful. Wild expressions of love.
To be witnessed with presence. Integrating the wild into the divine.
Transmuting sexual energy into interior Divine union.

• Experiencing the Erotic blueprints: 5 senses in present.
• Shibari Gote knot; total movement restriction. Surrender to pleasure and be witnessed.
• Integrating Greek Archetypes: Eros, Pysche, Dionisio, Aphrodite. (Aphrodite and Eros Love ritual.)
• Embracing your erotic power: Collective tying, with roleplay (Storytelling)

EVERY PROPOSAL INCLUDES CLOSING CIRCLE: -AFTERCARE-
• Practices of 10-15 min. of: -Petting, careless, spooning, kisses, nail scratches, eye gazing, shaking the body.
• Feedback amoroso.
• Optional offering: Service, or tribute.

You are not alone in your grief.
Grief is as natural an expression of humanness as joy, and honors the losses of what we loved: family, friends, jobs, relationships, situations, etc. Unexpressed grief can be the source of stress, illness, and disease while the process of grieving can bring balance to the body, offer greater aliveness, and create space for joy to recolonize the heart.

We will create a safe container together to share in sacred witnessing, body awareness, heart-opening music, and emotional release.

Intro to Contact Improvisation & Jam

TBC

Contact Improvisation was born from academic dance research in the 1970’s in the USA and is at the heart of our practices. The form has spread all over the world as a Postmodern Folk Dance.  It’s practice can lead to profound personal and relational refinement and flourishing. At it’s peak it allows the weaving of multiple dynamic flow states where the emergent dance is greater than the sum of its parts. We will explore the basics and the edges of Contact Improvisation.

Evening with Eros and Kink

by Professional Doms

By delving into the dark world of Rope, Role, Power and Sensation Play we choose a path of liberation. Confronting and embracing our shadows we hope to dispel shame , build confidence and find integrity in our boundaries and desires. This evening fusion explores the tools, terminology, and nuances of setting up scenes and/or experiences through the nuanced approaches & lenses of BDSM, Kink & Eros. Beginning with a short performance and demo, followed by Q&A with experienced players, and then flowing into self guided exploration.  

Somatic Grief & Prayer Ritual

TBC

Life contains suffering and collectively embracing our pain and our sorrows will help us to digest and compost the things in our life that do not bring us joy. Being seen and held in our grief can cultivate our self compassion and our prosilience. This ritual centers around a simple embodied score, in order to invite grief, love, prayer, and presence to move through the body and be released in order to cultivate more space in and around the heart. Bring your grief, your longing, your love, your tears, your grumbly pain, your beauty, your Being. 

Liquid Love Ritual

TBC

Exploratorium

A space to explore the different possibilities of sensuality, play and touch. Areas to explore with a Guardian or a pair of guardians that can be replaced through the evening. The areas would vary depending on the emergent offerings.

Touch&Play Jam

On the final evening, an emergent threshold ritual to relish and honor our experiences in this co-created dream. We will dance, offer gratitude, connect and turn towards the horizon of the dawn of living in deeper connection with our desires and boundaries. A yummy and supportive opportunity to prepare for integration and the return. How do we carry the fruits of our time here together back into the other realms of our lives?
