What?

Our fantasies are not what we think. 
 Every act of sexuality is an act of seeking wholeness. 
What turns us on, gets us hard and wet, is actually showing us a hidden aspect of ourself. 
Our fantasies, even our most shameful ones, can show us what is needed by us for us to expand, heal and grow. 

Incest, especially "Daddy fantasies" are among the most common. This can often result from having experienced a disconnection at a young age. 
Our unconscious mind is often seeking to complete a process which has been pending for decades.


Now is the time.

How?

The workshop will explore this topic through the following elements:
(1) Body-based somatic practices which allow us to connect more deeply to ourselves and our inner daddy.
(2) 
We will engage in fantasy role-play which may include the following activities or more, depending on individual needs:
- Cuddling / being cradled
- Being tied up
- Light spanking
- Light dominance
- other..
(3) Sharing spaces for emotional processing and integration.

For who

This workshop is open to all male-identified bodies.
It is intended for people with previous experience in sexual exploration (including tantra), other body-based (somatic) methods, and other spiritual practices.
It is also great for facilitators who are looking to develop new skills, for those who are advanced practitioners wanting to step into a facilitator role, and also practitioners who have a willingness to dive deep and explore every aspect of the self. 


Slide
OUR MAIN QUESTIONS:
What are we really seeking in our daddy fantasies? 

How do we un-shame our Daddy fantasies?
How do we awaken the Daddy within each of us?
Together we will...

As a group of sacred brothers, we will gather to explore the daddy fantasy in a safe space of permission, allowance, which will hold space for the experience of deep pleasure and processing shame. 
We will explore new ways of engaging with our fantasies more conscious, present, aware and embodied ways. 
We will learn to slow down, explore, and find nourishment in our fantasies even when feeling shame.

We will explore the qualities which are often sought in the daddy fantasy, including: heightened masculinity, safety, security, strength. 
We will share our daddy fantasies with others and engage with partner role play. 
We will also explore our ability to find the daddy within each of us.

✔ THESE WORKSHOPS GENERALLY ATTRACT
✔ Practitioners who have a willingness to dive deep and explore every aspect of the self. 

✔ Practitioners who have previous experience of sexual exploration work (including tantra) body-based methods, and energy work.
✔ Facilitators who are looking to develop new skills
✔ Those who are advanced practitioners wanting to step into a facilitator role
✗ IT WILL LIKELY NOT BE OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE WHO
✗ Are simply looking for a group pleasure practice
✗ Who are seeking to learn tantra massage techniques
✗ Who are seeking sexual experiences limited only to the realm of ecstasy and bliss

- PS: I have no judgement about any of the above, I simply feel that those seeking these aspects will be disappointed by this workshop.

FAQ : How sexual will it get? 
Consent and safety 

✔ We will create a safe space first through establishing ways of voicing consent and boundaries.
✔ As your facilitator I will be responsible for maintaining the sense of safety of the group container.
✔ Each participant will be responsible for their own body, for respecting their desires and boundaries.
✔ Nudity and self / mutual touch, including genital touch will be welcome, however they will not be compulsory. 
Each participant will be able to decide “how far” they choose to go. While everyone is invited to meet their edges, you will never be asked to go beyond your limits of comfort.
✔ Partner practices will be part of the workshop but are not compulsory.
✔ Pairings will be randomly assigned. Therefore participants choosing to participate in partner work must be open to interacting with anyone. Participants however will be able to choose the level of interaction they are comfortable with in any moment, ranging from eye-gazing to more explicit touch and interaction.

About your facilitator

Marc is a somatic therapist and shamanic practitioner specialised in the Medicine of eros, healing practices related to eros and sexuality. 



His work has two main focuses:
1- Supporting the transmutation of shame, trauma and shadow to power, purpose and mastery.
2- As a teacher's teacher, he trains facilitators, therapists and teachers by supporting their development of new abilities. 


His practices, which are often considered radical, combine talk therapy, with experiential processes involving the soma (the body), energy transmission and sexual explorations.


Interactions can range from gentler ones including soft touch, cuddling and conscious stillness to more radical ones such as dark-room therapy, and re-enacting kinky, taboo and shameful sexual scenarios in healing and conscious ways.

Today, he shares his work through 1-1 sessions, online and in-person, residential and non-residential courses and workshops, and online live and pre-recorded courses. 


After spending over a decade training in somatic movement therapy, energy work and sacred sexuality, his own practice emerged as a result of his years spent observing behavioural responses in 1-1 and group therapy sessions worldwide.



As well as being a trained somatic movement therapist, he has also been initiated into shamanism in 2015 and in the Mystery School as a student in 2013 and a guide in 2018.
He is also senior faculty at the Shakti Shiva Academy since 2021. 



While his process and practice are open to people of all levels of experience, he tends to work mostly with advanced practitioners, people who are keen to become facilitators, and facilitators wishing to develop new skills.
