Sex Club: London - Weekend Retreat III

Sex Club Retreat III is our third weekend retreat edition with different themes and exercises to explore yet more areas of expansion, learning and liberation related to your sexuality.

You don’t need to have attended Retreat I or II to attend Retreat III.

★★★★★ “Participating in Sex Club has been one of the best decisions in my life! When I first thought about joining, I felt fear and was not sure if it would be worth the money and time. The reviews seemed too good to be true. After all, how much can we learn in just two days? More than half a year has passed since Sex Club and the workshop has truly opened up a new beautiful world to me. I am now exploring and enjoying myself and my sexuality more and more every day, feel empowered to know that we all have unspoken truths about sex, and am better able to share my vulnerabilities with others. What's more, I am in contact with an amazing community of Sex Clubers who support and challenge me to grow." A.

Sex Club is always evolving and growing, with each group we learn and refine our process. But, some things have held true from our first ever groups - the space we create together is brave and held, playful and deep, supportive and challenging enough that we stretch and grow without pushing ourselves to go anyway we’re not yet ready to go.

The process is informed by a set of principles that help form the container for each person to go on their individual journey, to explore the parts of themselves that most need exploration and to find areas within themselves to expand into.

It’s a beautiful and transformative process that invites you into a greater sense of joy and liberation in your relationships and your relationship to sex.

★★★★★ “This is the second Sex Club I have attended and the only way I could describe the experience is profound, intensely moving, and just beautiful. Profound because you are invited to look inside and and dig out deeply buried feelings and experiences, all shared in a safe environment where vulnerability, honesty and openness are celebrated. Intensely moving because self-inquiry - amazingly facilitated at these retreats by Jules and Connor - is hard and bound to make you experience a wide gamut of emotions. And absolutely beautiful because you get to meet amazing people who are all on the quest to understand themselves better. At the end of each of these events I felt just so lucky for having met so many interesting people! ” - Anna O.

★★★★★ “The Sex Club weekend retreat gave me way more than my highest expectations. What a gift to take out into the world of future relationships. It’s hardly surprising after we’d all journeyed so far, and so intimately together, but I sense some of the new friendships forged there will endure for years. Amazing. Thank you.” - P.

★★★★★ “In connecting with others as I have done this weekend, I have re-connected with myself, my needs, and my wants. And in connecting with others I've remembered, as I do whenever I share in a well held communal space, how much I learn about myself by listening to and witnessing other people's experiences of themselves. Sex Club is a well held space thanks to Jules and Conor, and their empathy born of experience. It's such a blessing to have this space to learn with and from others.” Jim Holt

ABOUT THE WEEKEND

As with every Sex Club, it's a clothes-on space where we inquire into our sexuality via spoken inquiry and embodied explorations all influenced and informed by modern psychology, psychotherapy somatic experience and conscious sexuality practises.

We’ll be exploring the following themes in relation to your sexuality…

Presence
One of the beautiful and somewhat unique things about sex is the amount of touch we experience and the different parts of our bodies that get to give and receive touch. It brings us out of our heads and into our bodies, into presence. We explore the difference between touch that electrifies us and touch that leaves us untouched.

Shame
Shame is a powerful force that can hold us back consciously and subconsciously from expressing what we really feel, want to say and being able to fully experience pleasure. Throughout the course we practise awareness of shame, communication and tools to acquire agency to transcend it.

Fantasy
When do fantasies elevate your sexual experience and when do they take you out of the moment. How can we put our fantasies and experience into words authentically and sexy?

Self-Pleasure
Exchange your experiences and relationship to masturbation and cultivate self love.

Slow Sex
What makes the difference between a feeling of union and a painful or numb experience? Just like a film in slow motion, we explore how we can discover new details, new intensities of pleasure because we whizzed passed them previously.

★★★★★ "The facilitators Jules and Conor were fantastic examples of facilitation at its best. They took time to create and hold spaces which enabled us, the participants to develop relationships with each other within ridiculously short spaces of time. They included themselves and referenced their personal experiences and foibles which made them both human and relatable. Participants felt safe to share with each other, including some very private, never before shared experiences and that was down to the skills of the facilitators. I found the retreat exhilarating, challenging, an opportunity to learn about myself and was left wanting more please.” S.R.

WEEKEND STRUCTURE

Each day follows a similar structure with content building on what came before. The flow of each day is designed to bring us deeper into connection with ourselves and each other.

This is a non-residential weekend retreat. It's deep and beautiful and fun, and we recommend creating some space for yourself to integrate the experience after each day's session, particularly on the Saturday evening.
