Calling all deep divers, conscious kinksters, sacred BDSM players, ritual role players, archetypal explorers, and transformational Tantrics.

ARE YOU CALLED TO DEEPEN your expression of your Dom/sub archetypes, your understanding of Kink, the way you play, and/or offer healing scenes & sessions?

THE SHAMANIC KINK IMMERSION 6-day Ritual Scene Play Intensive may be for you!!!

Maybe you’ve found your way into the realms of BDSM, or hovered around the edges of it. Maybe you’ve found it exciting, enticing, felt drawn and then didn’t find the right time and place to step in… Maybe you’ve gone deep and desire to expand and explore even deeper.

If you’ve felt some of the juiciness and power available to you in this realm, and you’d like to truly get to the core of how to use it in a powerful, transformative and shamanic way, join Terra and Francesca for a profound immersion into the essence of conscious BDSM.

During this 7-day in-person immersion, we will dive deep in how to use the tools, toys, and techniques of BDSM for healing, ritual and transformation.

THE ARCHETYPAL PLAY BETWEEN DOMINANT AND SUBMISSIVE, when framed and played consciously, masterfully and consensually, can open doorways to a deeply inspiring, fulfilling and purposeful place. At the Shamanic Kink Immersion, Terra and Francesca will share with you their own lived experience, tools and transmissions on how to journey masterfully into this profoundly transformational space.
THIS COURSE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH all that you will need to know to work with the energy of the power exchange dynamic for healing, transformation, release of shame, and empowerment.

You will get a wide and empowering framework for the Dominant and/or submissive archetypes inside of you to freely and generously express themselves. Through the experiences provided in this course you may find a deeper understanding of who you are in relation to all that is, and how you want to express yourself in the world powerfully.

The Training provides you with opportunities to engage in powerfully negotiated and intentional scenes, in order to expand your BDSM play, D/s Relationship, or Professional Kink practice. We will also teach you techniques and share templates to support you in building Shamanic Kink scenes.
IT CAN BE DEEPLY HEALING FOR INDIVIDUALS to experience a Kinky Erotic Container that has an intention of slowing down, being present, and experiencing the flow of energy and transformation. When we become the trained guides of this type of BDSM journeywork, we not only delight our play partners, we change their lives.

THE IMMERSION DRAWS ITS TEACHINGS FROM:

~Shamanism ~ Tantra ~ Psychology ~ Neurobiology ~ Sexology 

~Taoism ~ Somatics ~ Recovery from Trauma ~ Modern Kink/BDSM

MEET THE COACHES:

Jason Tantra is a pioneer in the field of tantra for men who love men. With 18 years experience in creating tantra events with love, intimacy, sex, connection and spirituality, Jason has led over 16,000 people across Europe and the United States. “I love to create spaces where I witness men in their ecstasy and in love. When that happens, there is more truth in those moments than anything else I see around me.”

Jason will be your host for this event where you are guaranteed to feel love and connection with other participants.

Dillon Diaz is an award-winning adult entertainer and Himeros.tv alumni. Diverse is the word best used to describe his catalog. Whether it’s gay, bi or straight sex, it’s all about the chemistry and sensations for Dillon. “Working in adult entertainment has given me the opportunity to explore my own sexuality and get to know my body and spirit better. I am all about breaking down boundaries and enjoying the sex that I have, whether it’s with my partner or on set. Now I’d like to share what I’ve learned.”

Matthew Shur is a stubborn slut, a funky fag, and a goofy geek—but with lovely shoes. He discovered the power of conscious connection back in the summer of 2019 when he participated in the first Himeros.tv Tantra Retreat. Together with eight men from around North America and two tantra coaches, he filmed a series of erotic films with the intention of empowering, affirming, and uplifting other men who would later bear witness. The videos captured men of different backgrounds learning, practicing and experimenting with tantra in a sacred space while cultivating a sense of authentic loving community. Matthew considers this a transformative, life-changing experience.

In October 2021, Matthew stepped into his role as an in-person facilitator at the first Himeros Experience retreat. He led men of all ages as they laughed, cried, danced and harnessed the whole-body power of their sexual energy. He has since gone on to collaborate with Himeros.tv as a writer and sex & intimacy coach on five different shoots! If you had told Matthew five years ago that he’d be holding space for pornstars and offering them tools to embody their own authentic pleasure, he wouldn’t have seen that cumming!

John Baldwin completed his first tantra workshop more than 10 years ago - and knew it was the beginning of something beautiful. Through his continued journey, John has met some amazing human beings and has felt so much love in all directions. He wants to share that same love with others, and offer something back to them. Becoming a massage therapist and body worker has allowed John to do that. One of John's massage teachers gave him lasting advice: It's all about intention.
