Whether you are looking to get sex ed savvy for safer sex at sex clubs, poly communities or for your one-on-one relationships and trysts, this informative talk will

encourage a practice of safe sex talk in all your intimate relations. Regardless of experience, orientation, relationship status, age or politics, being able to talk about safer sex, knowledgeably, and act with integrity, makes sex, love and intimacy so much easier, for you and your partner(s)!

Learn sexy communication skills during this casual and informative afternoon discussion with special guests, sex and relationship expert Reid Mihalko, Reality-Hacker Lawrence Lanoff and Authenticity Coach Monique Darling.

Reid says:

“Safer Sex is all about practicing that “Safer Sex Talk.” But when was the last time you got together with a group of friends to “rehearse” it? Do you have your Safer Sex Elevator Speech down pat? If not, how can you?…

Navigating group sexual dynamics in any relationship takes skill, patience and a little bit of luck. If “luck” is where opportunity and preparation meet, then learning how to negotiate sound relationship boundaries and agreements is a sure-fire way to make the two, or three, or four of you the luckiest people on Earth!”

Lawrence says:

“People say the world is all about love, the universe is made of love, love is the answer to all things, and all you need is love.  Love is a very confusing metaphor that awkwardly hides people’s true motivations.  You see, the world, at its core, is not about love. The world is about fuck. Without fuck, there is no love. Without fuck, there is no sentient life. If we had a planet of people who only loved from their hearts, without the sex, there would be no people.  As we learn to embrace life from the context of fuck, there would be a lot less confusion about reality. There wouldn’t be a question about why he or she is talking to me. We talk to, listen to, hang out with and follow people we are attracted to, who if given the chance, we might fuck, We could drop all the shaming, blaming, guilting perspectives we currently have regarding sex, because fuck would be the baseline of obviousness.  Love is delicious and necessary to happiness and fulfillment, but fuck is essential to life.”

Monique says:

“You do not need anyone to hold a “safe” container for you around sex, around pleasure, around being yourself. Learn how to hold your own safe container. Communicate exactly where you are at, meet others from a place where they really want to honour and support you. Don’t come from fear, embarrassment, or holding back because the person you are interacting with has genitals. Genitals are fantastic!  Genitals are amazing!  It is ultra sexy to behold a person who is empowered and in comfortable with their sexual expression.  Let’s get passionate about diving into our vulnerabilities and talking about the stuff that scares us the most.”

Watch and learn as real sex educators go head-to-head and reveal their best bedroom moves.  What better way to learn about practical sex education that you can actually use than to watch three sex educators literally go head-to-head?

In this entertaining, informational, guaranteed-to-be-funny and friendly, “competitive” throw-down, we’ll let the audience watch, take notes, ask questions and when the dust finally settles, hang out and mingle with the experts and guests!

Join world renowned sex and relationship educator Reid Mihalko, Reality-Hacker Lawrence Lanoff and Sacred Sexuality Coach Monique Darling and watch as they go mano y mano and blow for blow against each other.

In this fun-filled 3 hour workshop learn:

  • What sex educators do under the covers and how
  • Their best tips and tricks (and probably not the kind you read about in Cosmo)
  • Their favourite, black belt sexy-sexy time moves!
  • And much, much more…

We can’t promise you badly dubbed voice-overs or high-jinx drama like TV’s Iron Chef, but we can promise you some down-to-earth applicable sex and relationship education.

If you were a big fan of “I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours” as a kid, or you always wished there was a reality show called “Shagging With the Stars,” then this workshop might be for you. Tell your friends. Bring a date. Bring a notebook too while you’re at it!

Special Guest Facilitators:

Reid Mihalko, Oakland, CA, helps adults create more self-esteem, self-confidence and greater health in their relationships and sex lives, no matter what their self-expression of those happen to be.

From his rated-PG/PG-13 workshops (Cuddle Party, Speed-Flirting) to the rated-R (Iron Slut Sex Educator Showdown) to his explicit, NC-17 rated, Show-N-Tell sex education workshops (where audiences get to watch, take notes, and ask questions), Reid has worked with thousands of individuals from myriad walks of life, orientations, relationship styles, countries and religions. Known for his charisma, wit and emphasis on integrity, Reid travels the country teaching, coaching, consulting and collaborating on fulfilling his mission: Create more self-esteem, self-confidence and health for adults in and out of the bedroom.

Reid has been a featured speaker at dozens of conferences on relationships and sexuality and is a sought-after presenter and teacher at colleges and sex positive stores across the country.   www.reidaboutsex.com

Lawrence Lanoff, Sedona, AZ, one of the most fascinating people on the teaching landscape is Lawrence Lanoff. Truly a renaissance man, Lawrence is a film director, photographer, author… and a deeply enlightened healer and teacher.  He calls himself a “rubber meets the road kinda guy” as he applies this practical essence to his artistic and spiritual skills over a 20 year span, to an amazing array of disciplines, starting with a couple of dream jobs – the directing of movies and as a photographer for Playboy Magazine.

Over the past several years, Lawrence has been in a process of refining his radical teachings, leading people into a new kind of freedom, literally deprogramming them from the sleep imposed by cults and religions. What is slowly evolving is a revolutionary new theory of consciousness that incorporates evolution, symbolism, metaphor, neurobiology, and their relationship to healing, spiritual evolution, and neuro-economics — the neural pathways that influences our deepest feelings about self worth and money, and, of course, sex and relationships.   www.lawrencelanoff.com
