Awaken heart, mind, body and spirit to the power of sexuality.

Foundations of Loving Arts 101:
Getting To Know Your Sexual Self

The purpose of this initial course is to create a safe space for talk about sexuality, establish clear definitions, and help each student look at the role sexuality has played in her/his life.

Classes consist of multi-dimensional, informational segments, followed by group discussion, written and/or verbal activities, and personal growth exercises to be done at home. Ritual, an important component of each class session, is employed in various ways to create sacred space for safe, supportive interactions. There is therapeutic value in each course, but classes are not therapy nor are they intended to take the place of therapy. Students decide for themselves the degree to which they feel comfortable sharing personal information.
