Different paths.
The same invitation.

Retreats, workshops, dance events, bodywork. Different forms — one intention: somewhere you can stop performing and feel what's real.

This page shows the kinds of spaces I create. To see what's running now, visit the Events page.

ONE-DAY - PERIODIC

Workshops & one-day events

Contained, focused, and alive. One thing explored with real depth.

Themes include conscious kink, power dynamics, intimacy, touch, and embodied play. Some are intimate and slow; others are bigger and more expansive. 

Most people arrive with some idea of what they're looking for. Many leave having found something they didn't expect — a new edge, a moment of genuine connection, deeper honesty, a way of being in their body they hadn't accessed before.

A group of people are multiple people on a bed, helping a shirtless man with a beard who is laughing and lying down. They are touching his chest and stomach.

These are not spaces where you learn to do intimacy. They are spaces where you practise being intimate with yourself, and with others.

MULTI-DAY - PERIODIC

Retreats

Away from ordinary life, with time and space to actually go somewhere — into the body, into relationship, into parts of yourself that don't usually get a look in.

Movement, ritual, somatic practice, conscious kink, embodied intimacy — held in a strong container that makes it possible to take genuine risks. For gay, queer, and trans men, and anyone drawn to this work.

People leave changed in ways they might not always have words for immediately — more at ease in your body, less afraid of your desires, more willing to be seen. A clearer sense of what you actually want. A feeling of having been genuinely met.

The Rite of Surrender

UPCOMING

A week-long immersive retreat exploring power, surrender, and emotional truth — through conscious kink, ritual, movement and deep relational work. Co-facilitated with Shadi Terra. Held at Terra Rosa in the Costa Brava. For gay, bi, queer, and trans men ready to go somewhere they haven't been before.

You don't need to know what you're looking for. You just need to be willing to find out.

EVENTS - PERIODIC

Ecstatic dance & music

Spaces where movement is the focus, no pressure to look a certain way or move a certain way. This is what happens when you stop performing and actually let yourself go.

Some sweat. Some cry. Some feel something they've been carrying for months begin to loosen.

Some events are pure dance. Others weave in elements of play, connection, or sensual awareness. All of them are rooted in over twenty-five years of dance floors — from London club nights through trance and punk to ecstatic dance — and the understanding of what music can open in a body when the conditions are right.

People dancing together, focusing on their feet and legs, with some standing, bending, or stepping on a wooden floor.

Dance is not a metaphor. It is one of the most direct routes I know back into the body and back into yourself.

ONE-ON-ONE - AMSTERDAM AND BEYOND

Bodywork & massage

Touch is one of the oldest forms of healing — and one of the most neglected. My sessions are a space to feel what your body is capable of feeling. Slowly, safely, without agenda.

I offer sensual and erotic massage for men in Amsterdam and beyond, drawing on techniques from tantra and erotic methodology.

These sessions are their own world — dedicated, intentional, and held with the same care and consent that runs through all of my work.

This work has its own dedicated site, with full details, pricing, and booking.

One-to-one sessions in Amsterdam and beyond. Rooted in presence, pleasure, and embodied awareness. Available by appointment.
