Men's Massage Workshop with Jacuzzi Soak

Where: TBA LB

Date: 2007-04-28 17:00:00

Type:

Saturday, April 28, ? 5pm-11pm ? Massage Workshop #1 with Jacuzzi Soak (Long Beach, PCH near Atlantic) Cost: $15 members, $20 non-members if paid in advance – all prices $5 higher at the door. The class will begin promptly at 6pm sharp – please plan to arrive earlier if possible, but it’s OK if you cannot arrive until later with the understanding that we may not repeat the learning & demonstration that’s already taken place. As always, BYO towels (2 at least, please!) & beverages, snacks to share, as well as non-staining massage gel, lotion, or oil and an extra sheet/pillow case or at least a lg./beach towel if swapping massage after the class or offering to be practiced on. A pizza or Chinese food chip-in will be avail. at the door. (Please comment which you prefer when RSVP'ing, and food will be planned for a break period in the workshop, likely around 7-8pm.) An after-hours party will be held from 11pm-Midnight (safe sexual activity ONLY during these hours, and participation is voluntary). Zilch otherwise, PLEASE! The class will begin with basic “Swedish” massage techniques, and cover standard practices top to bottom. We will be moving into Tantric or “Body Electric” style massage by the completion of the 1st workshop. If anyone has an issue with seeing someone else’s erection or possibly becoming erect themselves in a non-sexual, men-only group setting, you are advised to at least leave the area of the massage demonstration before the Tantric techniques section of the class begins. We will be looking for 1 or more attendees to practice on during the demonstration of techniques, so if you have any issues with possibly becoming erect with the whole group watching you (don’t worry, this is just a natural response to you feeling relaxed and enjoying the massage!), or if you have medical issues such as uncontrolled blood pressure, heart problems, or diabetes, please don’t volunteer. Following the class, you will have the opportunity to exchange massage, as well as enjoy the in-suite Jacuzzi and socialize, too. (For that matter, if you come at 5pm, you can enjoy the Jacuzzi then as well and relax.) This event will require a min. of 7 pre-paid guys to not cancel. If less RSVP and you would pay more to attend, please say what your max. is on the RSVP. (Room cost would be divided equally among attending if less than 7. IE: If 5 guys, cost would be approx. $20, plus $5 if non-member, and/or plus $5 add'l. if paying at the door.)
