It’s Nice To Meet You!
Hands-on Classes for the BDSM and Sacred Sexuality Community
CLASSES
Dynamic. Practical. Energetic. Informative. Engaging. And Lots of Fun!
TouchDeep and HeartBound have brought their highly-engaging, authentic style of presenting to dozens of events across the country. Their classes center around creating deep human connection, sensual touch, and exploring the sacred sexual completeness of the body/mind/spirit relationship (but without all of that “woo” talk!), all in the context of kink and BDSM.
They lead practical, energetic, “try-it-now” classes, that are often full-immersion, dynamic, hands-on experiences! All are hot, fun, and intense.
TouchDeep and HeartBound offer pretense-free, down-to-earth kink classes that are superbly organized, fully researched, and ultra-authentic. They love what they do (and each other: they’re lifetime-committed polyamorous partners), and it shows in every way.
Participants are delighted by their experiences and by TouchDeep and HeartBound's unique approach to presenting.
"I can't wait to participate in Sacred Touch again and to take every single one of the rest of your classes at future events!"
The Sacred Touch Experience
“…I really, really got a lot out of the Sacred Touch workshop, which I’d love to participate in again. I’m still processing some of what I learned and it was just totally amazing.”
Giving and receiving touch and meeting new people can be an exciting but sometimes scary experience! We’re going to do both in a delicious, deep, and easy way that integrates our honored sacred selves with our hot sexual selves. What a great way to meet new people!
Imagine an inner circle of people surrounded by an outer circle, one moving around the other, building connection in safe space, being guided into deeper and deeper touch, wrapping the sacred and the erotic around each other. The ‘receiving’ circle will be blindfolded, and the ‘giving’ circle’s touch will be guided through heart connection to deliciously-hot full-body sensations. You'll leave feeling great and with new friends!
