A three‑part journey to soften, sense, and reclaim pleasure through slow, guided self‑touch in community (read the unedited version on our website).
Welcome to the Awakening Pleasure Series
In many bodies, pleasure and pain have become over‑coupled – layers of tension, emotion, and unspoken stories sit between sensation and satisfaction. Across three monthly evenings we will gently unwind those layers through self de‑armouring, somatic boundary work, and the healing alchemy of group resonance.
Come to one session that calls you, or weave the full arc for deeper integration. Each workshop stands alone yet can be seen as an extension of the previous.
1. AWAKENING PLEASURE: A Journey of Awakening – 22/Sept
2. AWAKENING PLEASURE: By Opening the Gate – 20/Oct
3. AWAKENING PLEASURE: A Path of Inner Mapping – 17/Nov
Often in life we have to rush so much, and we can even feel discomfort when we finally slow down. In these gatherings we intentionally move at the pace of the body, meeting any unease that arises. The aim is to reconnect with the vulva (one focused theme at a time) through slow presence and plenty of space.
SESSION 2 - Opening the Gate
Do you notice tightness, burning, or a guarded sensation at your gateway?
Our opening often stores memories of boundaries crossed or being rushed.
This session focuses on …
Softening the opening – the threshold between outer and inner world. We explore boundary‑honouring touch to release the first ring of tension, invite deeper ease, and restore the gateway as a place of trust and welcome.
WHAT TO EXPECT & WHY JOIN
– Key Benefits: Softened gateway, reduced discomfort, increased readiness for pleasure, and a stronger sense of agency.
– Hands‑On Exploration: Step‑by‑step self de‑armouring techniques with real‑time guidance.
– Group Resonance: Practise side‑by‑side, normalising intimate self‑care and celebrating boundaries.
WHO IS THIS FOR
VuIva owners who are ready to explore sensuality and sensitivity in a communal setting. You feel at ease practising self‑touch alongside others and can self‑regulate emotionally; the facilitator will guide but this is a self‑development space, not therapy.
No experience in de-armouring required.
Health & Safety – Participation is not suitable if you are pregnant, have active infections or outbreaks, severe unresolved psychological trauma, psychosis, or serious physical illness. When in doubt, reach out.
DRESS CODE
Wear something comfortable that makes you feel safe and/or sensual.
If you’d prefer extra coverage, a dress or skirt that allows easy access without exposing too much is recommended.
TIME AND PLACE
Monday, 20 October from 19.00 to 22.00.
Please note that we begin on time, and you'll not be able to enter after the event begins; better to be early than late.
