For many of us, simply talking about the issue is not enough — we might need some experiential guidance and support to know how to enhance pleasure and feel safe in our bodies. An embodied intimacy approach helps you connect with your felt experience. Here, we listen, explore, and teach the body what safe, fulfilling and wildly pleasurable intimacy, can look like. Human intimacy cannot be cognitively planned or practiced, in a way that allows us to grow within our own connections. Intimacy is felt, experienced, and learned through the soma (the body).

A Somatic Sex and Relationship Coach is your personal guide to exploring and reclaiming your sensual superpowers. We focus on experiencing your body, helping you unlock and embrace pleasure, desire, and intimacy like never before. From breathwork to body awareness exercises, they'll show you the path to becoming a true master of your own pleasure domain.
