Welcome to Sex Beyond the Rush, A one-day immersive workshop for gay/bi/queer men+ who want more from their sexuality ❤️‍🔥
How often does sex feel electric in the moment…and strangely empty afterwards?
You know that feeling — the chase, the hit, the high... and then the emptiness that follows. The same scene playing out differently but somehow, often the same.
What if there was more?
This workshop is for men who are ready to discover a richer, deeper, more satisfying relationship with pleasure and Eros.
It isn’t about having less sex or seeking it in a different way; it’s about tasting the deliciousness and satisfaction that’s possible when you get out of your head, and drop into the present moment.
How does the day work?
We begin by gently connecting with the other men in the group, creating a safe-enough container where you don’t have to impress anyone. From there, we move slowly into embodied explorations. You’ll explore intimate practices with other participants where you’ll practice slowing down so you can notice what’s actually happening when you connect.
You’ll explore new ways to connect, to touch and be touched.
You’ll learn how to move your sexual energy through your body till you’re buzzing with arousal, pleasure, and desire.
You’ll learn how to hold your arousal so that you don’t feel rushed to release, but can continue playing and playing and playing…
Sex that actually satisfies.
Less in your head.
Less racing toward the goal.
Enjoying every moment. Every touch. Every stroke. Every glance of the eyes.
This is sex slowed down.
Throughout The Day, You’ll Learn Practical Tools To:
‣ Feel the full range of your desire, and use your desire as something that nourishes you rather than something that controls you.
‣ Expand your sensation and pleasure to coarse through your whole body, not just racing toward orgasm
‣ Experience desire without compulsion
‣ Access deeper satisfaction, not just release
‣ Making meaningful connections with other men that goes beyond the physical
Live musician, RamĂłn Oliveras (@ramon_oliveras), will accompany the journey, creating an evolving soundscape that supports depth, intensity, softness and aliveness. The music guides us as we move from grounded presence into expanded erotic energy.
This event is for you if:
You want to be less distracted and more present in your erotic connections
You're tired of the same patterns playing out in your sex life and don't know how to change them
You feel like sex leaves you wanting more rather than truly satisfied
You want more genuine connection — with yourself and with others
You're curious about your own body and what it's capable of feeling
You’re ready to discover a new depth of pleasure that you’ve never experienced before
If you sense you’re repeating erotic patterns, want more choice around how to express your desires, if you’re ready to experience sexuality as something that feeds your life — not something you chase, join us :)
Who will I be partnered with?
If you've never been in a workshop like this before, it's completely normal to wonder what you're actually signing up for.
You will do practices with many if not all of the other guys in the group. 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.
Every exercise is built on clear, ongoing consent — nothing happens without a yes, and a yes can always become a no. You will never be pushed into anything that doesn't feel right for you.
What tends to surprise people is how much warmth and connection emerges between men who might never have looked twice at each other on an app — because we're actually seeing each other's humanity and hearts 💞
👬 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.
Does this workshop include penetration?
No. Erotic practices will involve sharing touch and energy. However, there is no penetration in the practices shared in this workshop.
