ARRIVAL 6:20 PM

• It's best to arrive nourished, but not overly full, so we recommend completing your evening meal an hour or more before you arrive. You may want to eat your 2nd supper or a snack after you get home. We will also be providing some simple snacks such as nuts and fruit.

• We've not set a specific agenda for this evening, but many forms of intimacy and connection are possible. Please prepare for this gathering as if you were preparing for an erotic date with a lover. Again, there's no set agenda, but if there are types of pleasure you enjoy, it will help to be ready to receive what brings you pleasure!

• Please shower and get clean, but please refrain from using any anti-perspirants, deodorants, colognes, or other scented products so that we can enjoy connecting with each other with all of our senses.

• Please refrain from using any alcohol or recreational drugs before coming to this event. We would love for you to arrive clear as a bell and excited as hell!

Clothing is optional at all times. In fact, if you feel like leaving all or most of your clothes at the front door with your phones, keys, and other things, feel free!

Wear as little or as much as excites you (underwear, fully clothed, or birthday suit). Our friendly greeter will show you where to put any belongings you would like to leave behind at the door.

PAYMENT/CREDITS

We're keeping our Asheville gatherings affordable. Thank you for supporting us in being able to organize, host, and facilitate this event in our homes.

FAQ'S

• Is this an Orgy? No. It's more of a skillfully-guided, intentional exploration of Tantric eroticism among a group of adventurous gay, bi, trans, and queer-identified men.

• What's the Structure of this Evening's Event? Each time we host an evening "Tantric Activation," be begin the evening with several rounds of authentic heart sharing from each person, to express what they're feeling and what's alive for them. After the initial check-in circle, we draw upon several different formats for facilitating the flow of the evening. Some examples of facilitation styles we may use include (but are not limited to) dyad/small-group rotation with exercises, catalytic demos in the center of the circle with willing volunteers, and guided group interaction by way of music and spoken word.

• What level of participation is expected of me? The #1 rule here is to only do what is a 100% "hell yes" for you. At a basic level, that means arriving sober, turning off your phone, and being fully present. You'll have the option of witnessing, as well as engaging with the facilitators and/or other participants in 100% consensual activities.
