Thai Tantra Massage Secrets for Everyone
Learn the Hidden Arts of Touch, Presence, Connection & Energy
New York • August 30 • 4:00 PM to 9:30 PM
With Monique Darling, Peter Petersen & Yaw
All genders welcome • Queer friendly • Singles and couples welcome
Are you ready to deepen your connection with yourself and others through the sacred arts of Thai Massage and Tantra?
Join us for a nourishing five-hour immersion where you’ll learn how conscious touch can become a pathway to relaxation, presence, intimacy, and genuine connection.
This experiential workshop blends the flowing stretches and body mechanics of traditional Thai Massage with the heart-centered awareness and energetic practices of Tantra. Together they create a beautiful dance of giving and receiving that supports both body and spirit.
Whether you attend with a partner, a friend, or on your own, you’ll learn practical skills that can immediately enhance your relationships, increase body awareness, and help you feel more confident offering touch that is both nurturing and connected.
Throughout the afternoon we will explore:
* Foundations of Thai Massage and partner bodywork
* How to give touch that feels supportive rather than mechanical
* Breath, presence, and awareness as tools for deeper connection
* The art of receiving without obligation or performance
* Simple energetic practices that bring more sensitivity and aliveness to touch
* Easy-to-learn stretches and techniques that support relaxation and well-being
* Communication, consent, and creating safety through touch
Tantra teaches that the body is worthy of reverence, attention, and care. When we slow down and become fully present, touch becomes more than technique. It becomes a conversation.
Yaw will share his extensive experience with Thai Yoga Massage, including accessible stretches and bodywork techniques that participants can easily practice at home. Monique and Peter will guide the group through Tantric principles of presence, connection, energy awareness, and conscious touch.
No prior experience is necessary.
Come discover how touch, breath, and presence can transform an ordinary moment into something extraordinary.
