Penis massage and hand-play can be one of the most erotic, pleasurable and incredible orgasmic sexual experiences you could have ...
Whether you're seeing someone new, are in a long-term relationship with established sexual patterns, or are just not overly confident in giving your partner(s) genital pleasure, our intimacy can *always* benefit from new ideas and learnings.
This 2.5 hour online session is a verbally guided pleasure practice, to discover and learn new ways to offer your partner/lover/friend, genital pleasure (with your hands). Genital massage and hand-play can be one of the most erotic, pleasurable and incredible orgasmic sexual experiences you could have, and Tess is here to show you how!
You will be verbally guided through seventeen varieties of penis strokes and techniques to try on your partner. These include a variety of touch, breath, movement and mindfulness. This is a chance to really get to know your partners genitals and how they like to be pleasured, with no agenda. The aim is to discover and ignite more pleasure pathways and orgasmicity for your ongoing sexual fun, all in the comfort of your own home.
For the person receiving, your penis is perfect as it is, and things like arousal, engorgement, wetness or erectness are not an expectation. This workshop is about curiosity and playfulness, not agenda. Also, the person receiving the touch can also stop this experience at any time, say 'no-thanks' to any touch they do not wish to receive or even stop/leave the workshop any time they want.
The first hour is clothes on, for a meet & greet and the host will introduce how it will all work, go through some basic anatomy and explain/demo the strokes (on an object!)
After setting up your space and taking a quick break, all videos and microphones are off (except the host!), so you and the person you are with, may drop into a personal, embodied, shared pleasure practice, verbally guided by your facilitator, Tess.
After which, we all come back together (clothes on) for a debrief.
What’s the goal? Tess’ goal is to offer partners the opportunity to explore and discover new ways of pleasure that may have been unknown and for participants to walk away with more confidence in how to offer pleasure (and how to receive it!). To offer a new, intentional way to connect with each other, without agenda or expectation and perhaps get some great ideas for future play together!
All genders are welcome here, however this workshop is specifically to practice hands on techniques on those who have a penis, so at least one person will need that type of genital configuration to be ‘practiced’ on.
This is not a space for voyeurism or exhibitionism and no persons in pleasure will be visible to any others in the session at all. This is a guided, personal experience between you and your partner. This is not about reaching orgasm or any type of climax, it is about exploring new ways to pleasure your partner’s penis, with your hands (of course, if you happen to orgasm/come, that is welcome).
When you book in we will send you details about setting up your space for the optimal experience.

Tickets
Our 'rounds' of tickets are really simple: they're all the same, except that some of them are cheaper, to encourage you to book in early (because it makes a huge difference to us in terms of planning). Round One tickets are similar to 'early bird' tickets, and make up almost half of all ticket sales. Round Two tickets, slightly more expensive than Round One, also make up almost half of all ticket sales. Round Three tickets are generally only there once we're close to being sold out, but can squeeze in a late-comer or two. If you're feeling generous, you can buy whatever ticket feels right, but in general, folks buy the cheapest ones available. For this workshop, tickets range in price from $70 to $100, for couples (includes 2 people).

Technology
For most people, a low level of technical knowledge is plenty for this workshop. PLATFORM BEING USED: Zoom (with registration) CAMERAS: Please note that video / webcam is essential for this event, so have a think about what's in the background. HEADPHONES & MICROPHONES: It's preferable if you've got combined headsets with microphone for the beginning and end group conversations. TWO PEOPLE PER LAPTOP?: Yes, you are welcome to share a device for this workshop. ROOM: You must both be in a reasonably quiet room, free from interruptions. TIMING AND BREAKS: We recognise that Zoom has its advantages, but can be tiring. We include more breaks, accordingly. LATE POLICY: Workshops will be locked to new entrants a few minutes after the advertised start time, otherwise the workshop becomes confusing for you and other participants. Sign up to our newsletter to be notified when new sessions are released (put your location as 'online'). |
WHO THIS IS FOR AND NOT FOR...
INTENSITY: You can take this as easily or intensely as you both like. In general, this is a slow, guided practice, so between one to three chillies (out of four).
WHO FOR: For people that have a partner with a penis and wish to understand it more and get a hands on experience of trying new ways to offer pleasure with their hands. Also, for people who have a penis and wish to experience new forms of touch and pleasure that they may not yet have. For anyone wanting to learn and explore.
WHO NOT FOR: Those who are solely wanting a climax/orgasm from this experience (though that’s fine if it happens). People that want to publicly pleasure or watch others pleasuring. People that do not have a partner/friend with a penis to practice on.
WHAT EXERCISES / ACTIVITIES?: A meet and greet, followed by a camera & microphone off, verbal guided pleasure practice between the two of you.
WILL THERE BE PARTNER WORK?: Yes. The entire practice is working on your partner.
HOW WILL PARTNERING BE DONE?: The tickets you purchase are for two people, you log in together and work together.
CAN YOU WORK WITH AN EXISTING PARTNER / FRIEND?: Yes, partners/lovers/friends/any willing and consenting person who has a penis type genital configuration you can work with.
COMMITMENT: You can take this to the level that is right for you and there will be no moment where people will be visually naked or in pleasure.
RATIO EXPERIENTIAL / THEORETICAL: Mostly experiential. There's a small amount of theory at the start, just to explain how it will all work, anatomy and touch styles/strokes.
WEAR: Anything; there is no dress code. You must be fully clothed at the beginning of this activity, or you will be removed from the group. You will be able to remove clothing once we turn the cameras and sound off - the host will let you know when this is an option. Clothes must be on during all camera-on times.

"Tess is a wonderful animated presenter. She knows her subject and her passion / enjoyment of the area spills over to giving great information in a very personable way. I'm very satisfied. Great value for money. Shame I didn't come across this 30 years ago."
•
"Loved the slow guided pleasuring exercises. Was worried about receiving but did very well during the workshop."
•
"It was a beautiful experience. My partner (penis owner) was a little nervous but Tess's manner helped us to settle in. I very much appreciated the background information and anatomical language, it was pitched at exactly the right level. Tess is an excellent facilitator and I would highly recommend her sessions! I have learnt new ways to touch, but more importantly, the importance of communication during intimacy, communication with words and not just longing glances into each other's eyes ... "
