Analogy 2

This retreat in rural France is for anyone who who resonates with the male side of the gender spectrum, owns an anus and wishes to explore or clarify their relationship to it.

Whether that relationship is traumatic, painful, or full of pleasure and joy – all is welcome. Over nine full days of massage, sharing circles, meditation, self appreciation and pleasure, partner and solo work we will take a deep dive together into this under-discussed but hugely rich body part.

Expect to leave with less shame and self-consciousness but with valuable practical insights and greater somatic integration and resources. As well as new friends and great memories.

Maevon Canter has been exploring spirituality and movement for over 30 years. In 2009 Maevon began studying somatic practices with Authentic Eros and certified as a Sacred Intimate in the Body Electric tradition. He currently teaches BodyFlow massage on the Village’s Soul of Skin program and contributes to Stretch.

What to expect:

● An opportunity to ask yourself questions about sexuality, intimacy and relationship;
● The courage to express clearly what you feel and what you want;
● Paying attention to our actual thoughts, feelings and actions that perhaps don’t get named due to social codes, shame or the fear of failing;
● Expanding your touch, listening and nonverbal skills;
● Getting out of the head and into the body;
● Discovering the pleasure and fulfillment already present in your body;
● Develop greater presence: slowing down in order to better read and experience the current context.
● Allowing and welcoming the uncertain and the playful;
● Exploring counter scenarios to habits you want to transform (for instance: expressing a boundary from a place of connection, eye contact, initiating contact in a sober way, inventing rituals to supplement routine, and so on…)

We can recognize more clearly what we actually do in our sex/intimate lives and invite choice. We can explore what is still helpful and in alignment with what we really value and want and what is not. We can experiment, practice and cultivate new forms of action.

We provide a safe space where you decide how far you want to take it within the set frame. What happens in every exercise encounter is according to your choice and based on mutual consent.

you want to develop your capacity for intimacy, explore your edge, nourish yourself in a loving environment or simply have great time with yourself and a community of fellow explorers – than this is the right workshop for you.
