The Art of Surrender - Tantra Weekend for GBTQ+ Men

de Ruimte, Weesperzijde 79A, 1091 EJ Amsterdam, Netherlands

Over dit evenement

How do we learn to let go, to trust other men, to go deeper in our connections?

What - as gay/bi/queer men* - holds us back from trusting one another and forming deeper intimacy?

What keeps us caught in patterns of transactional sex that we find unfulfilling?

In The Art of Surrender, you’ll get to practice building intimacy, trust, and safety with other men, so that you can finally let go into a world of pleasure, connection and bliss. We’ll use tantric massage practices, including anal massage, to practice receiving touch and pleasure, and opening up to experiences beyond the mind.

The Art of Surrender is learning how to let go of control, so we can show up more authentically. It’s allowing ourselves to be seen, so that we can embody more of our potential in the world. It’s opening up to new experiences, new feelings, and new possibilities in our erotic lives, so we can break out of the scripts and discover something truly profound.

With support and guidance, you’ll discover the bliss that’s only possible when you let down your shields and allow yourself to surrender.

By participating in this weekend, you’ll join a community of like-minded men* wanting to authentically connect, outside of the limiting scripts of mainstream gay culture.

*We warmly welcome all cis and trans men, as well as individuals with other gender identities within the queer masculine spectrum, regardless of body type, appearance, or disability.


WHAT WILL YOU EXPLORE?

❧ How to build intimacy, in your relationships and with men you’ve just met
❧ How to create safety and trust with your partner, and better attune to your partner’s needs and your own
❧ How to look beyond preferences and discover the parts of you and of others that are deeply lovable
❧ Tantric massage techniques to activate and energize the body
❧ How to receive touch and allow yourself to be held and taken
❧ Discover a deeply healing relationship with your anus, focused on slowness and appreciation
❧ How to weave together your sexuality and spirituality to open up to experiences of profound connection
❧ Allow your sexual energy to bring you into states of pure bliss


WHAT IS SURRENDER?

Surrender is a state one can enter when we let go of our mind’s need to control our experience. Surrender can feel similar to a flow state - when we move effortlessly and thoughtlessly through our experience, moment-by-moment. In states of surrender, we can often feel more deeply - our sensations, our pleasure, and our energies. Surrender gives us access to spiritual states where we can feel held and supported, connect with our intuition, and connect with a sense of something larger than us.

In this weekend, we’ll use anal massage practices as a portal to access states of surrender. In anal massage, we get to practice receiving, being held and cared for by another, and letting go of our need to ‘do’, to be ‘active’, or to control. In order to be able to let go, we have to feel deeply safe. So we will spend significant time over the weekend building our container of trust and intimacy as a group, and helping you to feel your capacity, boundaries and limits so that you can receive in safety.


THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU IF:

❧ You struggle to let go of control and want to invite more ease and flow into your life
❧ You struggle to receive - touch, pleasure, love, care - and you want to allow more
❧ You want to drop in to flow states, and experience the pleasure of not over-thinking
❧ You want to connect with other men* in safety, trust and care, and discover the freedom that arises in authentic intimacy
❧ You want to enjoy the pleasure of touching and holding other men with a strong container of consent, boundaries and safety
❧ You want to feel more comfortable in your body
❧ You want to explore new types of anal pleasure
❧ You want to heal your relationship with your anus from past emotional traumas or pain
❧ You want to develop a relationship with your anus that feels empowered, caring and sensitive
❧ You are willing to dive into a weekend that may be uncomfortable, but has the potential for huge growth and transformation
❧ No previous experience with tantric or anal massage is required


What if there’s someone there I don’t want to touch (or be touched by)?

Our events prioritise consent. You'll never be obliged to touch or be touched by anyone. We begin the event with exercises that empower you to say "no" both verbally and non-verbally. As facilitators we are here to ensure your safety, so you can have your own experience without worrying about unwanted touch.

While we encourage exploring beyond your usual preferences, it's entirely your choice. As you might in a massage, you may allow yourself to be touched or to touch someone you wouldn’t usually be attracted to. This event is about expanding your experiences beyond the workshop.
If you ever feel uncomfortable, you won't be forced to connect with anyone. Your safety is our priority.

The Art of Surrender - Tantra Weekend for GBTQ+ Men

It was my first time ever participating in a workshop setting like this and first time experience with anything related to tantra. I had no idea what to expect, which made me very anxious. At the same time, I wanted to do the workshop because I'm someone who has a hard time just letting go and felt I needed to explore and test and push my boundaries. During the workshop I pushed through the discomfort I felt and really worked hard to embrace the exercises and commit to doing them to my fullest. I'm so glad I did - I feel open and changed in ways I didn't expect and didn't think were possible. For me, it was profound--and as a pragmatist I don't use words like that lightly. Jason's organization of the weekend and his facilitation were really impressive. We started slow, built connections as a group, and built trust as the intensity of the exercises increased. If you are looking for ways to grow and push yourself, I highly recommend exploring one of Jason's workshops. I'll definitely be doing another soon.

Kink and Consent Combo Weekend

This was my first workshop on consent and kink. I started nervous and tense, but this dissipated thanks to the safe and warm environment that Jason and Synsia created. I gained some great tools to help me connect better with myself and others. I feel that I'm now better at communicating my boundaries, and at truly knowing if I want to agree to something.
