Creating Intimacy: Couples Massage Workshop
prices start at $275 for 90 minutes (+$75 for every extra 30 minutes)
Relationships are complex. For some, our lives seem to become busier every day, all the mundane aspects of life taking time away from the important things. For others, finding new and meaningful ways to connect with our partners can be difficult, as it is so easy to go with what we already know will bring some level of satisfaction to us. It is also common for intimacy between couples to be pushed to the side when more important things come along. Of course, connecting with our partner is infinitely important and should be given the care and attention it deserves.
Whether you and your partner[1] are looking to create more intimacy and connection within an already thriving relationship or you are seeking to rekindle your connection by adding something new and exciting to it, this workshop can help better your relationship with your partner.
Contrary to what society believes and teaches us, intimacy is not the same as sex; when we take the time to understand this, and we taste what true intimacy is, we often find the fulfillment we have been craving. White Tantra Massage is an enjoyable way to add intimacy into your relationship.
The act of massage is very intimate, especially when a loving intention is harnessed. Understanding your partner and what their body responds to is a powerful way of creating a deep and profound connection. White Tantra Massage techniques use the energy we already have within us. It encourages this energy to move throughout our entire being, connecting our body, breath, higher self, and unconditional love. Together with techniques from Touch Therapy Massage and Acupressure, all of this combines to create an intimate and healing experience you will want to repeat over and over again with your partner.
Over the course of this workshop, I will teach you the techniques I use in my own practice and give you the tools to bring more connection and intimacy into your relationship. Learning the art of massage is a journey that supports couples in creating a relationship that can heal, repair, and nurture the beauty within both yourself and your partner. By taking these new skills home, you will continue to grow together, obtain more opportunities to see the body’s own wisdom, and open up to the love that resides within each one of us.

What to Expect
Just as every relationship is different, so is the way in which every couple connects. For that reason, this workshop is customized to each individual couple in a pre-workshop conversation. Some things to keep in mind for when we customize your experience:
- This workshop is primarily based in principles of White Tantra Massage; it also includes aspects of Touch Therapy and Acupressure
- At its core, this workshop involves a massage for each partner, performed jointly by myself (unless otherwise requested) and their partner, while I instruct each of you on how to perform and receive a White Tantra Massage
- As the practitioner, you will learn how to massage your partner and guide their energy while looking for cues in their body language to make the experience more enjoyable for each of you
- As the recipient, you will learn how to tap into your energy and relax into the sensations of the massage, while also learning to find your voice and request things of your partner as they learn how to massage you
- Together, you will learn how to use massage and touch to connect and strengthen your love for one another
- Note: While the workshop is designed to be split between each partner equally, with each partner taking turns in the role of the practitioner and the recipient, it can also be formatted without any swapping
- The specific areas you learn to massage will be customized to your and your partner's preferences
- For instance, if you or your partner's feet are exceptionally ticklish, we can alternatively focus on learning how to massage them without triggering the tickle response, or avoid them in favour of learning how to more thoroughly massage another area of the body
- White Tantra Massage of the genitals can be included if desired,[2][3] with the option for myself to demonstrate the massage on the recipient or to simply explain the process while it is preformed solely by the couple
- The workshop runs for a minimum of 90 minutes, but can be extended in 30 minute intervals to a maximum of four hours in order to cover more aspects of White Tantra Massage
- A full four-hour workshop will cover all areas of the body, with both partners splitting the time between roles as the practitioner and recipient
- Shorter sessions will skip some of the finer details, but you and your partner will still leave confident in your ability to massage one another
- Optionally, the full, four-hour workshop can be split over several sessions
[1] Please note: I pride myself on creating a safe space for everyone, including the LGBTQIA2S+ community and people in non-traditional relationships. While this workshop is designed with two people in mind, I am open to working with polyamorous couples, but please reach out to me to discuss additional arrangements and cost.
[2] Also note: I take consent extremely seriously. Including the genitals—as well as any other body part—is never required, and I will reaffirm consent throughout the workshop to ensure all parties are still comfortable. You can always verbally revoke consent at any point in the workshop.
[3] Additionally: I am always happy to work with couples of all sexual and gender orientations. If you intend to include genitals as part of the massage (it is always optional, and you can always change your mind!), I do request you let me know beforehand what I can expect anatomically, so I can adequately prepare.
