Ritual of Pleasure and Sadness with Alessandra Massi and Peter Banki

  • Erotic Living Inc (map)

This workshop will explore the links between erotic aliveness and sadness. These are two very powerful forces that make us tremble and break us open. This is a group ritual of movement, song, play and devotion.

In the words of our US American colleague Zahava Griss, whose work has inspired this workshop, the purpose is “to heal, to open our hearts, to free up energy so we love and live our purpose well”

“This is a space that honours your full expression including your grief, laughter, and sexual energy. You are welcome to move and make sounds as you let go of tension. Yes, you are welcome to experience arousal and joy.

When? Sat 25th January, 12pm-6pm

Where? City of Sydney Creative Studios, 119 Bathurst St, Sydney NSW 2000

Cost? $149 (Early Bird until January 10, $199 thereafter)
