Chris Taylor πŸ”₯ Spicy Speed Friending

Join Chris and many more amazing teachers at FireLight πŸ”₯ June 6-9 www.firelight.love

.

Where real connections spark to life. Meet fellow FireLight πŸ”₯ adventurers for a journey through thought-provoking games that'll make you laugh, feel, and maybe even blush. Ready to transform strangers into conspirators? Welcoming both social butterflies and introverts. Practice your confident "No" and your flirty "hell yes". A combination of Tantra style dyad questions that allow us to meet multiple participants and authentic relating games to go deep and practice interoception and attunement.

.

What is this speed friending thing? Well… we will play games and join in exercises that lend themselves to making connections, getting to know each other and dropping in. It’s all by choice, you can sit out on any exercises you wish. My goal is to create spaces where there is nuance and flow and in that you really get to dial in the spice level YOU want. 🌢

.

The workshop will have a faster pace than a tantra style event, more depth than a bar mixer, more variety than an authentic relating games night, and the best part will be all of us spicy humans to play with! 😸 Some people may have played one or two of these games before yet when taken on this journey as a whole we will get in the carpool lane to connection!πŸš—

  1. A combination of spoken and somatic exercises.
  2. Be brave and get the tools to make requests.
  3. Practice interoception
  4. Learn to attune to another
  5. Practice saying NO
  6. Get to ask for you want and lean into edges
  7. Learn about each other in small groups and really dive in deep. πŸ’¦

.

Chris blends the precision of a seasoned leader with the spirit of a play. Through a spicy mix of authentic relating, tantra, consent, AcroYoga, power exchange, and deep listening, he guides people to explore their edges and deepen trust.

.

He draws from a rich background of teaching at festivals worldwide, community building, flowstate consciousness, and counseling skills. Chris crafts experiences that transform strangers into friends and hesitation into action.

.

Join us for a series of collaborative exploration at The Somatic Playground! These in-person events will take place on Mondays 7-10pm

Get ready to immerse yourself in a unique experience of connecting with yourself and others in a playful, expressive, & intimate way. Through various somatic exercises and activities, you'll discover new ways to move, connect, let go, and build trust with those around you.

Whether you're a seasoned dancer or have never stepped foot on a dance floor before, this event welcomes everyone. We're cultivating a thoughtful space to explore your body's language, express yourself freely, and connect with like-minded individuals.

In the Somatic Playground, we will cultivate a community of somatic attunement and relational intelligence. Each week, a different facilitator will guide you on a journey of research, play, and practice, honing your abilities to dive into your somatic, emotional, primal, energetic, and relational bodies - learning to listen through touch and taste the pathway of motion. An open jam will follow as a way to continue exploring together sparks and curiosities from class.

So, mark your calendars and come join us at The Somatic Playground for an evening filled with exploration, movement, touch, and connection. Don't miss out on this opportunity to let loose, meet new people, and discover the joy of moving at the rhythm of connection and trust.

Our Community Agreements

.

As teachers, facilitators, and participants, while we support everyone engaging with sovereignty (making good choices for themselves and others), we also understand that trauma has huge influence on people's behavior and experience, so we are trauma informed in the ways we teach, engage, and/or participate in these classes. We also recognize and continue to learn to be aware of the power dynamics that exist or might arise as we engage, and seek to level the playing field of power whenever possible, and engage with utmost attunement and consideration for each other.

Erotic energy may emerge but is not the goal. Sensual touch is welcome - we are exploring all that is possible in terms of how we relate to each other through sensing. Sexual touch is not a part of this container. Please reach out with any questions.

.

Diversity and Inclusion

.

For each class series, we seek to include a diverse group of facilitators to express the full range of humanness, bodies, and experience around race, age, gender, identity, sex, sexual orientation, and more. Some series may appear at first glance to favor some subgroups, and while may be accurate that this is what was available at the time, we continue to include facilitators who fit all of these subgroups.

.

Similarly, and in collaboration with the Bloom App/Community, we seek to include a diverse group of humans and celebrate all experiences, bodies, and experiences, especially of those who have historically been less favored or appreciated.

.

Please reach out with any questions.

.

Refunds or Transfer

.

If it ever turns out that a class isn't for you or that you missed a class for any reason, we'll be happy to either refund you or allow you to come to a future class instead. No problem 🫢
