ManToManifestation Festival – One-Day Festival Event

This one day Men’s event will take place on Saturday 17-Dec-22 in the heart of Amsterdam.

It will be a day filled with workshops and fun. Most of the workshops offered throughout the day will be given by one or more of the annual festivals’ amazing facilitators (and 1 guest facilitator). The intention is for our facilitators to join together and offer duo-facilitated workshops!

The evening will be completed with an (optional) Potluck community dinner! Food, music and lovely company….

This is a great opportunity to try out what the annual full-weekend festival is all about (www.ManToManifestation.com)

The venue is smaller than the annual festival venue, so there will only be one workshop space available during the day, and a maximum of 35 can attend. So if you want to come, please buy your tickets now!

Workshops

Let me be your Temple of Joy by Love Dragon and Pinto

In an act of allowing (practicing one of the four quadrants of consent) your body will become the dance floor that your two partners can enjoy themselves on. Under a rainbow of music, they might rock’n’roll, waltz, boogie, twerk or freestyle. This workshop is an invitation for you to “dance” along and interact with your partner celebrating love in the “Temple” in a crossover of (non)dance, (non)massage and consent. This workshop is nudity-friendly, but does not include genital touch.

Together Feeling – exploring consensual movement & touch by Tijs and Franacis

Inspired by the Wheel of Consent (Betty Martin), we will explore what our body and mind enjoys most. Most of us even don’t know what they really like, when it comes to moving our body or being touched. Time to discover that in interaction with other men. We will combine different yoga positions and massage strokes to explore what feels good for you. With the so-called Bossy massage, you will be completely in the lead while receiving touch from another man. We will change partners and we touch with our hands, arms or other body parts, with and without massage oil. You will feel safe, connected and peaceful.

Gay Beloveds Ancestral Blessing given by Sadhu Valakhilyas

Come receive the transmission of love relationship between men, being carried through our lineages from the days of old, into the present, and forward into the future! In this workshop you’ll explore the imprints you would have most desired to receive about man to man love relationship, as well as the download you did receive as a child. You’ll be guided in opening to receive the blessing of all the gay male beloveds who have gone before, and who wish you the freedom to live the man to man love relationships of your dreams! If you’re feeling stuck in how to find gay love relationship in your life then this workshop will support you to clear the way in opening up to it! This workshop includes sharing exercises, embodied process work with supportive holding & touch, and some very playful movement, contact, and body connection practices!

What is the ManToManifestation Festival?
