Playful Cuddles Workshop for Men

Sunday 09 February 2025

12:30 - 18:00

Canary Wharf - London

Embrace the rainbow of connection with shared meditation, massage sharing and warm hugs at this small-scale event for Queer-friendly.

It will be a fun, accepting, and warm oasis where we come together to explore the power of touch. Join us in celebrating diversity, fostering real connections, and creating a space where everyone feels valued and embraced.

Bring your Pajamas!  

Cuddling, meditating and exchanging massages are all healthy practices that we should do more often. Hormones and pheromones such as oxytocin reduce your stress levels and are good for your body and mind. Touching makes you more confident in yourself and others. You can recharge your batteries and release stress.

Safe and Inclusive Vibes 

Our workshop creates a judgement-free zone where participants can be their authentic selves. We celebrate diversity and embrace every unique identity, creating an environment where everyone feels seen and accepted. This workshop is designed to celebrate the rich tapestry of human connection. Discover the joy of touch in an open-minded and supportive community. We support each other in taking steps towards greater vulnerability, to seize opportunities for personal growth and self-discovery by opening your heart.

Empowering exercises 

You can come to this workshop and open the space to meet new people, enjoy great conversations, touch, be touched, have fun, practice asking for what you want, practice saying “no” to what you don’t want – all in an environment structured as a place for relaxation, exploration and fun. We start with an opening circle and a meditation, to arrive in the space and come to your true self. In the massage corner we give a short massage instruction to practice these movements. In the next corner we give different options for hugging and holding each other. After these guided activities to promote trust, communication and understanding, you can enter the open space.

Every 15 minutes you can choose whether you feel like a moment for yourself, a chat, a massage exchange or a ‘free-style’ hug.

Play corner to explore

During the open space there will be safe and welcoming corner for exploring the artistry of Shibari. You can share and enjoy the beauty of this ancient art form of rope bondage to bind and immobilize a person, to play with the trust and intimacy while being tied.

You can wear a comfy underwear if your pyjama become too hot or uncomfortable, but not full nudity.

Will be a sober, drug free space and no-sexual

You will have enough time to relax, share a back massage or other welcome touch, have a cup of tea and a healthy snack and hang out.

The workshop is led by P!NTO And assisted by Nick.
