Tired of the monotony of everyday life, and drab men’s attire?  Longing for some excitement and the thrill of aliveness?  In this lovingly guided session, we take your hand as you step back in to the closet, only this time, who knows who’ll be coming out!!!

Through this transformative process you get to experience the freedom of letting go, cracking your chrysalis and spreading your gorgeous, rainbow wings and taking flight as the magnificent, fabulous YOU, you’ve always dreamed of being!

In this safe, sacred space, find yourself supported and guided through the fashion do’s and don’ts of DRAGDOM. Discover inner strength and power as you don heels, lipstick and a gown.  Free your inner Diva and HEEL YOURSELF!!!

All of us want to be touched. Yet, sometimes asking for touch can bring up fears of rejection, insecurities about our appearance, feelings of vulnerability, issues of worthiness, and even old wounds and memories. What if we created a space where we can bypass old stories and practice asking for touch, knowing that we will receive it in a SAFE and RESPECTFUL manner? In Touch Me, each man will have opportunities to ask for touch and to have the experience of receiving it. We will work in pairings and groups to help diversify and expand our experience. Participants can expect to gain an increased sense of connection, and the ability and practice of asking for what they want, and of course, to receive a lot of nurturing touch! This workshop will be done with clothes on, with respect for people’s boundaries and health concerns.

Relaxation can be hard to come by during these fast-pace and turbulent times. We are easily distracted by all the tasks, technology, and the challenges and responsibilities of daily life. Most of us aren’t even aware of how unrelaxed and anxious we are until we take the time to stop and slow down. Journey into Deep Relaxation™ is a guided relaxation where we will unplug from the noise in our minds, the tension in our bodies, and the fast pace of life. Take time to slow yourself down and catch your breath. Using relaxation techniques such as guided imagery and progressive mind/body relaxation, you will be guided on a slow soothing journey into a very deep state of relaxation and peacefulness. This class is especially good for those who have trouble meditating, sitting still, or have very active minds. Join us to experience a calmer state of mind and enhanced well-being.

In this experiential workshop participants will explore the ways that internalized homo shame arises in their lives and experience multiple ways of identifying, understanding and healing in order to liberate their original blessing.

This workshop is intended to be clothing optional.  Feel free to dress in as little or as much as you choose for this workshop.  This is a safe space and all men’s choices are accepted and celebrated.

Long ago, men were raised to be stewards of the environment and apprenticed to work in consort with land and landscape. From these relationships with place, we fed and nourished ourselves (mind, body and spirit), and we knew deep connection with our kith & kin in the natural world.  For generations, gay men have played a special role keeping these traditions and connections alive…and the planet needs us today more than ever. 

Join John Forti on a nature walk exploring the diverse habitats of Rowe. Together, we will learn to read the historic landscape, forage for and make an herbal tea, reclaim nature play, rekindle our role as earth stewards, and rediscover joy in the spirit of the greenman!

Although LGBTQ+ people have deep soulful intuitions and longings, we have often been alienated and traumatized by the institutions that claim stewardship of spirituality (churches, temples, synagogues, mosques). In this workshop we will safely explore our trauma (emotional, spiritual, physical, sexual) at the hands of these institutions and seek ways of collecting our fragments and healing our souls.
