We will be hosting this event at the Sacred Embodiment Community's new location at 1818 E Mercer St, Seattle, WA 98112 (previously located on Roosevelt, previously Seattle Tantra Community and prior to that, the home of Moksha Tantra). Please read the DETAILED PARKING AND ACCESS/ACCESSIBILITY DIRECTIONS BELOW***, because the address alone will NOT get you there. Since we have been selling out lately, we highly recommend securing your ticket(s) early. We are looking forward to the excitement of new people to weave into the work we do. Come have a great time with us!
Come for cuddles, touch, breath, expression and eye gazing. The Yum Nights are stewarded by Shawn and Amanda, inspired by their training with Tantra teacher David Cates and their work in their embodiment-centered private practices. Shawn and Amanda are both Somatica practitioners; they guide groups, couples and individuals to deepen and broaden intimacy and relationship through practical experiences. You will be tenderly and playfully guided through physical, energetic and verbal connection practices with yourself, with partners, and in groups. Together we all create a very yummy "heartfield" in the space. This practice is focused on our humanness, and we partner with each other indiscriminate of gender or sexual orientation. At the Foundations level, all practices are fully clothed and are focused on nurturing, innocent touch and attention with each other. You do not need to come with a partner.
Let yourself arrive, relax and settle before the wonderful evening.
We have maxed out every weekend event within the last year, so buying a ticket reserves your spot. Note: Facebook replies do not reserve a spot, though we certainly want to see your RSVP and comments on the event page.
Feel free to invite like-hearted folks. This is a more open pool of people, so no need to ask us before bringing someone, unless you have a question about whether they are a good fit for the event.
If we don't sell out, $40 and up sliding scale at door

NOTE ABOUT SUBSTANCES
Intrinsic in the work is a keen noticing of our bodies. This deep listening doesn't mix well with alcohol or other substances, so please don't consume those that would hinder your natural state.
PARKING AND DIRECTIONS INFORMATION (NEW SPACE)
Arrive with enough time to find a space. Free parking is available around the venue.
The new SEC space is on Capitol Hill, on 19th Ave East between E. Roy and E. Mercer Streets. The official address is 1818 E. Mercer Street, BUT there is no building marked with that address and the building itself is not really visible from Mercer. So your best bet is to navigate to the Monsoon Restaurant, whose address is 615 19th AVE E.
Facing Monsoon, go up the stairway on the left hand side (between Monsoon and Zeeks Pizza). At the top of the stairs is the Mercer Professional Building. Take a Left and walk about 20 feet South then turn Right and walk to the end of the planter box on your right. Our entrance is there grey door.
Parking on 19th Ave in the business district is mostly two-hour. There is untimed parking a block North on 19th between Aloha and Roy. There is also untimed parking to the East on 20th Ave.
NOTES FOR THE LOCATION
Please do not bring pets. This location is smoke free and shoe free. Thanks!
FAQ's: We love FAQ's! Email or Messenger or comment on the FB invite any questions and we will put out answers for all to benefit!
FAQ1: Can I come with a partner and ONLY work with that person? In our workshops, we create some cohesion and mixing of the participants, so that we can flow together. Then in the deepening exercises, if partners would like to do the work only with each other, that is welcomed.
In addition to these workshops, Shawn works with clients to get more out of their individual lives and relationships in his Somatica private practice (www.erosblossoming.com) as well as doing energy work (www.lightandinformation.net).
Amanda helps clients in her Somatica private practice (www.erotictuneup.com) and she facilitates Vulvassage and Ecosexual events in the Western US.
And they work together, with a team approach, to help clients from different perspectives.
THIS EVENT IS HELD IN THE HOME OF THE SACRED EMBODIMENT COMMUNITY.
