This unique boundaries and consent workshop is for ALL MEN, not only for those attending a Tantra festival for the first time. It is important because in sexually open environments even experienced men tend to act needy and overly eager, wanting too much too early. Despite the default consent workshops held at the beginning of most festivals, it is well-known that women's boundaries are regularly overstepped, especially on Temple nights. At every festival, women share with me about receiving inappropriate touch, which may trigger a freeze response in the best case or cause sexual trauma in the worst case.
In this workshop, men will learn that female arousal works very differently than male arousal and that they will progress much faster by escalating slowly and smoothly. A female assistant will share how uncomfortable inappropriate touch feels and demo the body language of both, her openness to go further and her freeze response as an indicator to slow down and check in with her level of comfortability. Furthermore, men will learn about Temple etiquette, especially how to interact with Shaktis in the Temple while being respectful.
In this workshop, men will develop a deeper understanding of the feminine sexual nature and receive guidance on how to flirt with women without overstepping their boundaries. When women feel comfortable and safe, they cultivate an inviting, open, and vibrant atmosphere that makes men feel more appreciated and confident in initiating interactions with Shaktis. By doing this, we create an unforgettable festival that everyone supports and feels excited to return to each year.
