❣️❣️ Could kink hold the key to your personal and spiritual growth?❣️❣️
Power Play, dominance, submission, and Kink are about so much more than what’s being done physically. Underneath the actions are profound layers of emotion, feeling, and meaning, which give power play its erotic charge ❤️🔥
When held with deep intention, kink becomes much more than a sexual experience - it can be deeply healing, and even spiritual.
At Power & Presence, you’ll practice cultivating your personal power and discover how owning your power erotically can lead to greater ease in owning your power in life.
When you embody Power with Presence - all of your erotic play becomes supercharged. And any act - even a simple glance of the eyes 👀 - becomes deliciously arousing 🔥
When you build your capacity to hold Power in your body, you can more easily connect to your center, to your personal Truth, and bring yourself in the world with greater clarity and ease. Becoming more of who you are and less of who you aren’t.
Many of us don’t fully own our power:
We compromise who we are in order to fit in or to please others.
We keep ourselves small to avoid being fully seen in what makes us unique and special
We ignore our unique gifts and feel that we could be offering more to the world and having a bigger impact
We avoid speaking our truth in order to avoid conflict
Life often feels flat, disconnected, or meaningless
Sex feels repetitive, predictable, disconnected or hollow
We’re caught chasing the next dopamine hit, rather than the things that make us feel truly alive
There are many things that hold us back from stepping into our full erotic power - stories of not being good enough, having to perform, insecurities and doubt. During this weekend, you’ll get to playfully explore how to take power and land in greater confidence and ease.
This weekend will also be a powerful opportunity to experience the deep freedom of letting go.
Many of us long to let go of control - to be guided, held, and supported by another man. Yet many of us struggle to let go. We struggle to trust - trust that we’ll be fully held in all of our experience. Trust that other men will be able to meet us. Trust that it’s OK to be vulnerable.
At Power & Presence, you’ll get to experience deep states of surrender using conscious kink to get you there.
What will you explore?
How to wield power in an erotic scene with playfulness and care
How to effectively take control, while maintaining a deep connectedness and attunement to your partner.
How to build trust, safety and intimacy with your partner
Letting go of control and the blissful release of submission
Tools for building a physical and emotionally safe container for power play

Erotic/cock massage practices to build sexual energy and feel it coursing through your whole body
How to work with resistance as a tool for feeling and increasing your Power in your body
Partnered practices to feel and express your Power as an embodied force, and how power play can be a spiritual practice
Kink scenes where you’ll get to play with taking/giving over power, and working with the blockages and challenges that arise when you do so
What is ‘Tantric’ Kink?
Tantra sees sex as a mirror of life and of spirituality.
Tantric Kink is an approach to kinky play that uses Power and Surrender as portals to profound spiritual experiences
When we learn to properly surrender, we can experience profound states of freedom and bliss that can bring us into contact with our higher selves
Through the conscious exploration of kinky fantasies, we can integrate more of our psychological shadow - to feel more ‘you’, more embodied, and more whole
We also use sexual energy to feel our power directly. In this weekend, you’ll practice working with sexual energy as a way to open your Power Center, so that your life force energy can flow more freely
You will also discover what keeps you from embodying your full power and from surrendering, and receive tools and processes to help work with and release your blockages or stuckness.
The weekend includes tantric cock massage practices to transmute your sexual energy into pure Power, so you’ll feel energized and empowered to manifest your desires and bring yourself into the world with greater clarity and ease
This workshop places a strong focus on respect, consent, and open communication. Through a series of practices, plays and scenes, you'll gain insight into the dynamics of power exchange and the profound intimacy that can arise from surrender and control.
Whether you're a seasoned practitioner of kink or a curious newcomer, this workshop provides a safe and inclusive space for you to explore your desires, awaken your senses, and give you the confidence to dive into power play with others.
This event is for you if:
You want to be a more empowered lover
You want to challenge yourself to step into your s*xual power
You’re curious about surrendering or being submissive and want to explore in a safe environment
You’re new to kink play/power play and want to build a strong foundation
You’re an experienced kinkster, and want to feel more connected with partners in your scenes
You want to deepen your intimacy and connectedness with partners
You want to explore the energetics and spiritual aspect of kink/power play
You want to become more creative, more powerful in your ability to manifest, and bring yourself in the world
You want to cultivate more ease and capacity for flow in life
This event is NOT for you if:
You want detailed instruction on specific kink tools (ie shibari, bondage, whips, etc). We will use some kink toys during this weekend, but this day is focused on the energetics of taking power and surrendering rather than a technical training for specific tools.
You want to only explore dominance or submission. All participants will be invited to step into the energetics of both roles so that you can deeply understand the polarity of power play.
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.
Who will I be partnered with?
You will be assigned random partners for all Tantric practices. This helps create a sense of equality, openness, and mutual care among all the participants. That said, any boundaries you have are always honored, and you can always negotiate the level of intimacy with any partner.
If you come as a couple, you will still be partnered with other participants throughout the weekend, to be fully integrated into the group process.

What have previous participants said:
“This was a beautiful, transformative experience that helped me better understand how I want to connect with other men through touch.
“This was a really special experience. Jason is a skilled facilitator who creates a very safe space to explore sometimes vulnerable territory. He has a way of making shame disappear and creates a safe space to explore freely. This event made me look at intimacy in my own life very differently and I am very grateful for the experience.”
“Very overall positive and mind opening experience. Jason, the instructor, is very professional and knowledgeable. He made everybody feel as safe and comfortable as they possibly could. The weekend has stayed with me and I’m glad I decided to go and experience it. Would recommend others push themselves out of their comfort zone and do the same.”
