Got Your Back Intimacy 4 GBTQ+ Men

Feeling that people around you have got your back is an integral part of both your sense of belonging and you living in your freedom to fly high in life!

So many of us have gone through experiences in life where we’ve felt totally unsupported. 

And even more so as GBTQ+ men. 

In this ‘Got Your Back Intimacy’ workshop for GBTQ+ men, you’ll explore relating, touch, and connection practices that activate your back body and you feeling supported there.

You’ll be guided in deepening your capacity to rest back into yourself, into the support of other GBTQ+ men, and to rest back into life.

Imagine if in each moment you felt that life had got your back? 

How would feeling that level of support enable you to leap forward into living the life you most desire?

This workshop invites you into the magic of the felt experience of the GBTQ+ men around you having your back and you having theirs.

You’ll explore the power of mutual support and how this enables us to rise up together. You’ll also explore the shadow behaviours of feeling unsupported such as undermining, backstabbing, self isolating, and excluding, and how to step out of operating from them.

Expect to feel your back body like never before and as a rich resource of support and holding!

Get ready for this powerful day of melting into the experience of feeling supported by other GBTQ+ men.

IMPORTANT POINTS

This is a GBTQ+ workshop that is open to any adult who identifies as a man!

You may experience many of the practices and processes in this workshop as homoerotic. 

You are never required to touch or be touched by someone you don’t wish to share touch with, or be touched in any way that is not of your choosing. You are always encouraged to play within your boundaries. And, I invite you to open to, and explore the possibilities of experience you can create when you let go of preconceived ideas.

In this workshop I ask you to take full responsibility for the choices you make in how you participate.

You’ll be encouraged to focus on your experience of your own aliveness in your body, and to let go of any agenda for sexual interactions or fulfilment of attractions.

At this event you can wear as much or as little clothing as you want.
