This class is an introduction to the techniques and theory of sacred nurturing massage to the pelvis, perineum and genital area.  This can be exchanged within a context of safe therapeutic sessions between partners or friends, and have profound effects.  This massage is extremely powerful and effective to prepare for birthing, and for the general health of the pelvic area.

How to share slow and nurturing healing touch with your lovers and friends. Great for birth preparation, healing traumas, improving sexual experiences, and deepening sacredness in relationships.

This is a very informative introductory class, even if you do not take the further classes.  If you want to take the further training offered on Saturday but have no one to practice with, please come this night and perhaps you may find a practice partner. This will be an overview of the work, including external self massage, discussion, and will not include nudity.

 

Amara will present:

*Introduction to working on both men and women, doing release work around the pelvis and internally.

*Benefits and intentions of this practice.
