CONVIVE: To Feast with others!
Mindful Erotic Practice is Erotic Self and Community Care
On Tuesdays and Thursdays we gather on Zoom for loosely facilitated communal erotic practice. A playlist, exploration of intention and an opportunity to share are all options for you. Practices are scheduled for 7 am pacific time (Vancouver/San Francisco). We will meet on zoom to connect - practice starts- cameras/sound goes off- playlist goes on- when practice ends if folks want to share how it was-cameras-sound-can go back on.
Join us once a month, once a week or 2 days a week ....

Their work has been with communities, families, couples, and individuals and extensively with folks in non-traditional arrangements for the last 20+ years.
Their own journeys with learning disabilities, gender, queerness, causing harm and experiencing harm, privilege and oppression continue to deeply inform their ever changing practice. Captain is passionate about social justice, embodiment, earth magic and the ocean.
All of the projects and organizations they work with have scholarships please let captain know if you need any support navigating the processes or have additional accessibility requirements. They would be delighted to support and advocate for you in this way.
