Description
Massage Exchange for GBTQ men*
with Markus Kaufmann
What is Massage Exchange for GBTQ Men*?
Massage Exchange for GBTQ men* is a monthly event that provides a safe and welcoming space to practice and experience full-body touch and massage techniques (using massage tables). Referencing the content from the “Soul of Skin” massage training, each evening offers participants the opportunity to either try out or deepen various massage styles, fostering a community of learning and support.
Switching between giving and receiving roles often allows men* to engage more deeply, experiencing greater impact and connection. The event provides both thematic suggestions for massage techniques and “best practices,” as well as enough freedom to use the space in mutual agreement with your partner*.
Whether you are new to massage or attentive touch, or an experienced practitioner, this event is an excellent opportunity to connect with others, improve your skills, and enjoy the many benefits of touch in a supportive environment.
