We want to connect with our community during this very special time. What place does eroticism have for us today? How are we coping with what life is throwing at us? We invite you to come to a zoom group of listening, sharing and support. There will also be some energetic and breathing exercises to move our erotic energy. No advice will be given without it being specifically requested. The group is between 60-90 minutes once a week. There is a maximum of 6 participants. The enrolment fee is by donation. (Recommended donation is $25 or $10 if you are low income). Prior enrolment is required to receive the zoom link.  Book Now so as not to miss out.

Many men, myself included, get their emotional support from the women their lives. Now is a great time for us to learn new ways to support one another. There is no shame if you are having difficulties at this very challenging time. Our next meeting is happening next Thursday. Feel welcome to come along:

We welcome men of all ages, abilities, sexual orientations, as well as trans-men. 

Time: Thurs. April 16, 6pm (GMT + 11, Canberra, Melbourne Sydney time)

Location: Online (Zoom)

A zoom link will be sent to you on enrolment.

The group will be led by Peter Banki, Ph.D.

Peter Banki, Ph.D founded Erotic Living (previously known as the School of Really Good Sex) in 2015. Prior to that he curated Xplore - Festival of the Art of Lust in Sydney from 2011-2013. He says: “When you are intimate with someone, you witness them at their most open and vulnerable, whatever their role happens to be. Much more than their skills or competence, it’s their being that is exciting.

Peter has an extensive background in Iyengar yoga, dance and the martial arts (Capoeira Angola). His somatic and movement practice forms the basis of his work in the sphere of eroticism.

Peter has also been a scholar and teacher of European philosophy and literature for much of his adult life. Philosophers such as Friedrich Nietzsche and Georges Bataille, Anne Dufourmantelle, Avital Ronell and Jean-Luc Nancy have most inspired him in his thinking about sexuality and eroticism. He holds a Ph.D in German studies from New York University (September, 2009). His book The Forgiveness To Come:  the Holocaust and the Hyper-Ethical  came out recently with Fordham University Press. Articles about Peter's work on The Festival of Really Good Sex have been featured in many news outlets, including The Guardian, Archer Magazine, ABC Radio National and news.com. He has also been interviewed about the Festival of Death and Dying, which he also founded and directs, on ABC Radio and the Sydney Morning Herald. His work on apology and forgiveness has been featured on 2SER and on the philosophers’ zone on ABC Radio National.

How are we coping with what life is currently throwing at us?  How can erotic living help? Now is a great time for us to learn new ways to support one another. There is no shame if you are having difficulties at this very challenging time.

We welcome you to come if you identify either as a woman or as queer. For us “queer” describes the full LGBTQIA+ spectrum and therefore any person who self-identifies as not cis-gendered and/or not heterosexual. For us “woman” describes any person who identifies and lives as such. For us “men” describes any person who identifies and lives as such. All categories, “queer”, “women” and “men” can overlap but do not necessarily have to.

Time: Monday, April 20, 7pm (GMT + 11, Canberra, Melbourne Sydney time)

Location: Online (Zoom)

A zoom link will be sent to you on enrolment.

The group will be led by Sarah Roffey.
