Platonic Touch Workshop & Practice


Saturday, January 18, 2020 at 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM PST

Sunnyvale, CA


This workshop and social event offers participants opportunities to learn about and practice communication skills, explore consent, and discover the power of platonic touch. Attendees will practice identifying and asking for what they want, saying no to what they don’t want and yes to what they do want, and experimenting with platonic touch in a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment. If you...
·         are looking to connect with an inspiring community
·         long for nurturing and healing touch
·         need a safe place to relax and rejuvenate
·         desire physical contact with other people in a non-sexual way
·         want to stretch out of your comfort zone
·         often find yourself in the role of caretaker, but need a turn to be taken care of
·         have no idea how to answer the question "what kind of touch do you like?"
·         feel overwhelmed by both a desire for connection and a desire to run away from connection
....then our platonic touch workshop & practice may be just what you have been looking for!

The welcome circle and workshop begins promptly at 2:30pm, which will introduce participants to one another and offer guided exercises and support to practice communication skills. Afterwards, there will be approximately two hours available for practicing touch, eating snacks, or just hanging out. Our event ends a few minutes before 6:00 with a brief closing circle.

Facilitator: Autumn Vandiver
