REBECCA FRANCES

What does the dictionary say? “A festival of uninhibited debauchery,” “a Bacchanalian celebration; a sacred ritual; a mystical religious service; a secret cult gathering at night,” “debauchery, revelry, licentiousness; excess, intemperance,” “collective acts that deliberately violate social norms.” And what does “orgy” mean to YOU? Whether it’s a state of blissful oneness, letting yourself go in a relaxed way, frenzied sex, or a playful interlocking of bodies—we experiment from one orgy to the next, exploring, losing, and finding ourselves 🍇

Men as chaise lounges, flying carpets, tables, chairs, massage machines, trash cans, cat trees, beds, punching bags... they’ve already transformed into all of these things here, and the men decide for themselves what they want to become and how they’d like to be used. The guests at our elegant house party make themselves comfortable, munch on snacks, play chess on the new surfaces, and chat about Goddess and the world—the main thing is that, for one evening, it’s not all about men! A workshop on the beauty of objectification and an evening of socializing and a different kind of luxury. All genders are welcome. Inter, agender, and non-binary people decide which direction they lean toward and which side they’d like to play on.

A retreat in the mountains, featuring massage, movement, breathwork, theater, and discussion—inspiration for soft, sensual, and intimate bodywork encounters. Using tantra massage as a springboard into the awkward, complex world of human relationships, we welcome you to TWAPOS.

*No matter what gender was assigned to you at birth, no matter what chromosomes or genitals you have. If you don't identify as a woman but were assigned the female gender at birth, you are also very welcome.

Seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting are the gateways that connect us to the world. What path do they show us toward engaging in erotic play with one another? Which, by the way, can be just as fun, cozy, strange, or even platonic as it can be kinky, hot, and sexy. Choose your own adventure.

Are you unhappy with your sex life? Perfect! Because problems* can be a blessing and reveal something valuable to you—if you’d just finally stop wanting to get rid of them right away! When we listen to them, magic happens. In this workshop, our problems transform into our muses. Without sugarcoating anything, they inspire us to experience intimacy differently: more harmoniously, more connected, more freely. A weekend for individuals, couples, polyamory groups, or friends (and more). This way, for a life of love—and a love life—that goes far beyond sex :)

Maybe sex in your relationship has quietened, gone stale or become predictable. Maybe your body has changed—due to aging, stress, or having children—and intimacy feels unfamiliar. Maybe you’re used to hook-up intensity, and making love feels like it’s missing something. Or maybe you’re just curious about what else there is to discover…

Usually we tend to squeeze relaxing activities into our free time. We schedule yoga, drive to the sauna, force ourselves to read a book or meditate. Yet we still feel stressed. Perhaps the important thing is to do nothing. Let’s get drunk on relaxation.

Would you like to do something together? Get closer (again), nurture your bond, break out of stale routines, or have fun that’s meaningful? In our day-to-day lives, we often lack the time and ideas to do this. Don’t despair! We’ve put together two carefully planned days where you’ll explore, in a playful and embodied way, what it means to be in a relationship.

Do you need a break from sex? Do you feel uninterested, bored, or frustrated? Are you (or are you wondering if you are) asexual? Or is it just not worth the trouble? Abstinence could be like fasting, detoxing, or going on strike. Or like coming home. Or it could be incredibly exciting to resist temptation. Whatever the perspective—could there be abundance in abstinence?

An evening for tantric practitioners exploring the joy, the juice, and the sometimes itchy truths of this profession.

When was the last time someone really paid attention to your mouth... during a massage? Physically, the mouth and face are full of nerve endings and are highly sensitive. Socially, the face carries a lot of emotional weight. We use it to communicate, we try to control it, and some people cover it with makeup and/or styled facial hair. And our mouth is this fascinating gateway to our inner selves, a deliciously wet cave with…

Bodies…what can they do? Bring your body to us and we’ll find out. Using tantra massage as a springboard into the awkward, complex world of human relationships, we help you expand your carnal knowledge. This intense form of intimacy—a massage technique performed and received in the nude—holds so much human potential. This luxurious act gives equal attention to all parts of the body, allowing space for whatever wants to emerge.  With care and attention, we guide you through movement and meditative mornings that bring you into closer contact with yourself. From there, with humility and humor, we ask the question: Is today’s erogenous zone your eyelashes or your ears, your feet or your asshole? Do you need a break or a debate, a hug or a slap in the face?  

Intimacy that breaks free from set patterns and conventions is fantastic, creative, and unpredictable—that’s what makes it so appealing, but also quite complex and challenging. In the (AN)OTHER INTIMACY workshops, we want to embark on this adventure! The SENSORY EXPLORATIONS course is dedicated to the sensuality of our bodies—seeing, hearing, smelling, touching, tasting. We’ll move through the weekend in these five modes, guided by the concept of the “beginner’s mind,” which refers to an inner attitude of openness, curiosity, and the soothing absence of preconceptions or judgments. Together, we’ll rediscover our senses, as if we were experiencing the fabulous... for the very first time.

What we in the modern West call “tantric massage” deserves to be dusted off and decluttered so it can shine with renewed brilliance. Because we want those luxuriously long, deep, sensual, oily, warm caresses and the orgasmic sensations throughout the entire body—without the simplistic talk about male and female “energies.” We want to bathe in radically tender joy, to be touched with full presence within a held space…

Oh, life! Welcome back. We went through something like hibernation. Carefully, we now blink our eyes, stretch our limbs, crawl out of our nests, and dare to slowly open ourselves up to a new world. This is exciting. And overwhelming. And a fascinating chance to reinvent ourselves. Where do we begin? Why not at the beginning: it all started with your breath and your senses. Feeling, hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting. As fundamental as they are, they tend to be taken for granted. But once we give them our full attention, they generate powerful, visceral pleasures and…
