Sensual Somatic Poetry

Pleasure for the People presents:
Sensual Somatic Poetry

Tegan and Caroline will be guiding you through a somatic quest of sensory writing exercises, free-writes and prompts, with regular check ins and moments to reflect. We will look to the work of other writers for inspiration and discussion, reading a juicy selection of poems on themes such as desire, shame, sexuality and the erotic. Expect to fill your books and bodies with thoughts, reflections, memories, feelings and ideas.

This event is online and from the comfort of your own home. Please make sure you have everything you need around you for a comfortable experience.

Tegan believes sexuality is universal and extremely personal and it is only you who can truly discover yourself.

Tegan has a therapeutic, somatic and process oriented approach and works creatively with visualisation, imagination and the intelligence of your body. Tegan is moved to bring this work to relationships, individuals and groups that desire to know themselves in this way.
