“When we dance, we wake up, we get down and juicy with ourselves, we have fun and forget all the heavy shit we carry around. In the dance we get real, get free, get over ourselves. Movement kicks ass. When you truly surrender to your own rhythm, you look so cool, so mysterious, so seductive— the way you deep down really want to look but don’t trust that you do.”
― Gabrielle Roth, Connections: The Threads of Intuitive Wisdom
Do You Long For More Kindness, Connection, Community & Confidence Among your Queer Brothers?
For many gay, queer, bi and trans men, true connection is feeling out of reach more than ever.
For example…
Are you tired of the bar and club scene? You show up hoping for connection but leave feeling unseen, disconnected and drained. The alcohol, the drugs, the surface-level chatter, the same tired old side-step-dancing-eye-glancing-hot-guy-seeking that happens on the dance floor—it’s fun for a while, but does it truly nourish you? Are you getting what you really desire?
Do the hookup and dating apps leave you frustrated? Swipe, message, ghost, repeat. You know the rhythm. Instead of the warmth, kindness and respect you deserve, it often feels like an endless numbers game and a whole lot of admin where true depth, presence and kind communication are rare.
Do you feel shy or self-conscious about moving your body? Maybe you love the idea of totally letting go on the dance floor, but you feel held back—worried about how you look, if you’re doing it ‘right’, if you’re too feminine, or too ‘this’ or too ‘that’, or if anyone is watching and what they might be thinking (God forbid you actually connect with your true joy and let it be witnessed!)
There is nothing sexier and more attractice than a man fully in his body, letting his dancing freak flag fly - whether it’s masculine, feminine, cunty or beautifully serene - if it’s authentic, then it’s beautiful!Longing for something deeper? You crave spaces that feel authentic, where love, connection, creativity, and kindness are the foundation, not an afterthought (if a thought at all!) You wish there was a space where you could spend time getting to know guys in a new, unique and deeper more intimate way.
This is What Pleasure Medicine Offers You
A space where movement isn’t about looking good, being judged or waiting for the next hot guy to walk by—it’s about stepping into your body, your joy, you'r delight, your power and your pleasure.
✨ An alcohol-and-drug-free space to move and express freely as you are.
🌊 A deep, healing and immersive music journey that unlocks deep connection to yourself and others.
🔥 A warm, welcoming atmosphere where kindness replaces competition.
💫 A chance to meet like-minded men who are seeking real connection - a place to make new friends, maybe even find love, to be more sensual and create a real community that uplifts, supports, loves and respects each other.
🌿 An opportunity to dance in a way that feels natural and liberating without inhibition, without filters and without expectations.
Here, you don’t need to perform, impress or shrink yourself to fit in. You just get to be you - to discover the deeper, truer you.
You allow the protetcive masks you wear to gently fall away to be truly seen for who you really are.
No dance experience needed. Just your body’s wisdom leading the way.
Why Pleaseure Medicine?
Queer spaces often feel either overly sexualized or emotionally disconnected. Pleasure Medicine offers a space for authentic, heart-centered connection as well as a space for depth, joy, fun, delight and pleasure through movement.
Many of us grew up being told to tone ourselves down, be less expressive or we feared taking up too much space. This is your chance to expand, explore and learn to move without shame.
Dancing should feel freeing, not performative. No need to worry about who’s watching—you’ll be surrounded by others who feel the same way and want to move for themselves.
You’re not alone in craving depth, softness, sensuality, connection and real presence. This is a space where you can connect with want the same thing.
