Facilitator Bio
I am a Sexological Bodywork practitioner, Somatic Sex Educator, Embodiment facilitator and Certified Sacred Sexuality Practitioner. I invite people into deeper connection with their sensual, playful, and authentic selves. My work weaves together body awareness, intimacy coaching and sex education, to support genuine expression, eroticism, pleasure, presence.
With a passion and a priority for inclusivity, and a nurturing touch of humour, I create spaces that feel alive and safe.Where curiosity, connection and consent guide the experience. I believe in the body’s innate wisdom and the transformative power of Somatics and embodiment to bring people home to themselves and each other.

Workshop 1 duration:
90 Minute Workshop, 2 Hour Workshop
Equipment needed:
Speaker, Mic, Cushions, Whiteboard
Workshop 1's Intention:
'-To open dialogue around cultural conditioning and shame
-To begin deconstructing limiting beliefs around gender, chest size and shape.
-To model safe, presence-based touch and offer students a visual reference for their own practice.
-To offer alternative inclusive narratives around gender, intimacy and embodiment.
-To embody sexological bodywork principles and explore sensation, safety, and relational presence.
-To integrate learning, support emotional processing, and deepen individual, couples and group connection
Workshop 1 rough format:
Engage - Self: Grounding in space. Settling the nervous system. Beginning to cultivate awareness of the chest area.
Engage - Others: Start to connect by stopping in front of others with sentence stems prompted to normalise diverse experiences and foster relational safety through non-judgemental listening.
Engage - Topic: Somatic practice to guide awareness into hands, and importance of attunement to others whilst giving massage. This will support open dialogue around cultural conditioning and shame; and, begin to deconstruct limiting beliefs.
Study: Bring awareness to inequality/limiting beliefs/stories/conditioning. Demonstration on massage techniques, and the importance of massage for health/lymphatic drainage.
Activate: People are invited to partner and offer massage to others or practice on self.
Reflection: Questions regarding what participants are leaving with? How will they take this into the world and their relationship with others or self? What was it like to receive or give? How is their perspective regarding chest massage different to before the Workshop?
Workshop 1 program description:
The Art of Chest Massage invites participants to explore the chest as a landscape of sensation, emotion, and embodied connection. Participants are guided through breathwork, dialogue, and hands-on practice to deconstruct cultural conditioning, gender myths, and shame surrounding the chest. Through presence-based, consent-led touch, participants learn inclusive techniques for relaxation, arousal, and healing while fostering intimacy, safety, and deeper awareness of self and others. Chest exposure optional. Participants bring a meaningful item for inclusion in practice.

Speaker, Mic, Cushions, Whiteboard
Workshop 2's Intention:
'-To bring joy and playfulness to eroticism.
-To demonstrate how eroticism can be fun and playful through guided somatic games and practices.
-To offer a fun experience whilst integrating learning that ‘sex doesn’t have to be serious’.
-To invite participants into a state of embodied curiosity, where pleasure, laughter, and connection become gateways to erotic aliveness
Workshop 2 rough format:
1. Engage - Self: Moving around space and starting to notice and drop into body.
2. Engage - Others: Moving around with body parts in a fun way and starting to connect, using movement, sound, imagination.
3. Engage - Topic: Demonstrating and playing small games.
4. Study: How does playing games create nervous system regulation, activate creativity, and support connection in self/partnership/community/intimacy.
5.Activate
The following games are examples of those that will be facilitated whilst continually reflecting with participants that intimacy, connection and sex is about bringing joy and fun:
Inner / Outer Circle
I’m a tree (group improvisation game)
Mirror dance (partnered): lead/follow game
Sorry I’m late (improvisation group): activates imagination & spontaneity
What I see in you...
6.Reflection: Question around what participants are taking away? How can they use these new skills/approach/perspective in life with friends/lover/partners? What are they noticing in their bodies after playing these games? What are they noticing about their nervous system now compared to earlier
Workshop 2 program description:
Lets Play invites participants to explore a range of games and practices that support learning how sex, sexuality and eroticism can be fun and not always ‘serious’. Participants will learn and experience games in both a group environment and in partnered practice that will support making intimacy fun.
Play opens a doorway where people can access their most natural states of curiosity, creativity, and intimacy - and ultimately a deeper connection to who they really are. When we facilitate play, we invite others out of survival mode and into safety. We create spaces where laughter co-regulates nervous systems
