A Tantrika's guide to - Holding Space

EVENT DESCRIPTION

A Tantrika’s guide to - Holding Space explores intentional spaces as a door to intimacy and self awareness. Through different exercises and exchanges we become aware of the space we are holding for ourselves and others. Through this process we look to deepen our capacity for connection and intimacy.

FACILITATOR
Æris Grace: As a facilitator, I love to create supportive environments, where a diversity of body types, age groups, neurotypes, genders & relationship styles feel at home. I hold powerful spaces cultivating Intimacy by combining sensuality, emotional intimacy, embodiment, eros, energy work & kink with insight in contemporary relationships, queer theories and neurodiversity.
