Workshops

I don’t have any workshops planned at the moment.

Though I trust inspiration will strike when the timing is right.

If you’d like to stay updated with any future workshop announcements, you can join my newsletter here:

Honestly this was one of the most impactful courses I’ve ever taken. Having a safe place to push boundaries in a container that felt safe is an amazing thing. I will forever be grateful to [Mike] and to those in the group.

My Workshop Philosophy

I believe that a well-facilitated workshop is one of the most profound routes into personal and collective change.

In a workshop space, we co-create an alternative culture and craft a new set of norms. With the transformative power of community, we can rewrite the conditioning imbued upon us from mainstream culture.

Here are the pillars I bring into all my workshops:

🫶🏼 Connection-Based Experiences

I believe all transformational workshop spaces are built on intimacy, vulnerability, and camaraderie. I don’t believe in workshops that are primarily lectures.

👁️ The Power of Witnessing

When others lovingly witness us express new parts of ourselves, it has the effect of dissolving shame, and integrating those parts of us into ourselves.

😈 Total Permission

When we let others express their darkest and most shamed parts, we allow them fuller access to themselves.

💙 Deep Sharing

When we share parts of our being that we don’t usually, or ever, talk about, we get to know ourselves better and more fully accept ourselves.

👏🏼 Supportive Container

When it feels like everyone else in the program is on your side, it gives you power you didn’t know you had.

⚡️ Action

Our life is ultimately the culmination of every action we’ve ever taken. If you want to grow and evolve, you must take new actions. A workshop container can give the clarity and support to embark on new actions.

🏹 Commitment

When everybody feels fully ‘in,’ something happens where the container becomes a lot deeper and creates more transformation for everyone involved.

✨ Digesting Intimate Experiences

Workshops can produce entirely new and intensely intimate experiences with yourself and others. When you process these experiences, it gives rise to your growth, expansion, and wisdom.

The container that Mike creates and holds is truly transformational. To witness others and to be seen is a powerful thing, and when doing so with topics and exercises that push our boundaries, push us to understand more of who we are and to embody our whole selves in a community is magical.

Previous workshops

Here are a few workshops I’ve led in the past.

• Sacred Witnessing Circle. This was a couples workshop where the group would lovingly witness each couple expressing their physical intimacy through a variety of prompts.
• Spark. This was a couples workshop where each couple practiced new ways to explore their intimate universe.
• Gender Rapture. An embodied workshop for participants to explore their gender identity, their pronouns, and how their gender expression impacts their sexual expression.
• Journeying Into Sexuality. A six-week group program that included sexual deshaming, embodying and expressing pleasure, erotic imagination, and gender expression.
• Embodied Power Exchange. A contact-improv workshop where participants explored different consensual power dynamics through dance.
• MSEX. A series of 8-week programs for men to come together and work through their sexual shame.

I believe I got everything I paid for and more.

Mike gently guided everyone to push past their edges. They were the perfect example of a leader who shows by example and wasn’t afraid to exposes their own vulnerability to the group. Very patient and calm throughout the more intense sections.

It really empowered me to own my authentic and natural desires that I previously felt ashamed of and or a victim to. I was able to fully witness myself and others be vulnerable with their core fears and hang-ups.
