Sacred & Embodied Touch

Conscious touch is the foundation of deeper connection to yourself and to others, and this exploratory workshop with Holistic Pleasure Coach Andrea Devon Bertoli + Sex Therapist Christopher Brown helps you build your capacity for embodied touch and sensual intuition.

You’ll be guided with gentle breathwork and movement practices to explore impulse and embodied knowing. We’ll explore a dynamic touch framework to explore giving and receiving in new ways (this will involve limited touch between participants—hands, arms, feet). The whole process invites you into depth of awareness of your (and your lovers’) bodies. Taken together, these skills form the foundation of more conscious sexual expression.

This workshop is for you if you want to bring deep sensorial awareness to your whole body, deepen connection with your inner eroticism, improve sensual communication, and expand your connection potential.

Testimonials from our previous events 🫶

“Andrea and Christopher are sexy, fun, and loving teachers—it was very inspiring! I highly recommend this class to couples at any point in their relationship… and I plan to come back for another class!”

“I wanted to thank you for the Tantric Date Night. [My partner] and I had a wonderful time. The class was at a great level—I felt comfortable and at the same time challenged in good ways in the safe and supportive space you created. We have done many of the practices before, but it doesn’t compare to learning it in person. It amazes me that after many years together my partner and I continue to learn new things about each other and grow as lovers.”

“If you are wanting to deepen your connection with yourself and others then I highly recommend working with Andrea. She is a wealth of knowledge and has training in so many interesting fields that come together in a way to really helped to integrate communication, understanding your own needs and others!”
