CMG-SanDiego Presents........

“The Gift of Touch – A Massage Exchange Workshop”

This workshop will celebrate the body and the nurturing qualities that all men possess.

The workshop will begin with an orientation to bring our focus to the room and to acknowledge each other in all our diversity. Attendees will receive basic instruction on giving and receiving a massage.  The orientation will conclude with the setting of rules of conduct. If you miss the orientation you will not be permitted to join the group. Spectators are not allowed.

It’s important that we create a safe environment for men to experience massage in a group setting. Massage is an intimate act that can generate a full range of sensations and emotions. The massage work will consist of one man on each table who will be massaged by two other men. Massages are full body and are done with massage lotion.  For maximum benefit, massages are received in the nude. For some, this can be a challenge. Do not let concerns about body image, shyness or possible arousal shape your decision. There is no shame in being a man. This workshop honors all men whether they are tall, short, round, narrow, older, younger, smooth, textured, hard or soft. Here all men are considered fabulous!

There will be three massage sessions during the workshop to ensure each man will have his turn on the table to experience a 4-hand massage. This means that you will be standing for two of the three forty-minute sessions.

We acknowledge that while receiving and giving a massage, sensual or erotic energies may arise and are a part of the human experience. We need to be perfectly clear that this is NOT a sex workshop. Inappropriate conduct will not be permitted.

WHAT TO BRING:

• An eagerness to experience this wonderful workshop
• An understanding that you will be massaged by men, and that you will massage two or more men
• A freshly showered body

WHAT WILL BE PROVIDED:

• Clean sheets
