I can make any woman 'o'

I've been studying with the morehouse folks since 1992, prior to that I studied and taught Mantak Chia's taoist sexual practices, and I renewed my teaching credentials in 2004.

I'm certified as a doer (2002), I'm not really on the market - I'm only looking for long term partners, and that would involve a lot of complex agreements.

Back when I was foot-loose and fancy free I used to work the mark group circuit in the SF Bay area to find people to play with, that was very fruitful.

I don't even recognize the phrase "do", so I'm curious.

I'm about to be certified as a Skydancing Tantra instructor, (Margot Anand's school of tantra). And I've been studying and practicing sacred sexuality, western sex magick, and ritual bdsm for about 16 years now.

Hi,

I'm in the East Bay. Given age (60) and my range of sensual/sexual interests (bdsm, bi exploration etc.), I'm not sure how well I fit into this group. I've only dabbled in such areas as tantra, expanded orgasm, g-spot pleasuring etc. Also, the concept of do partners is a bit new to me. But I'm always exploring new frontiers of sensuality and sexuality. I love giving and receiving sensual massage. I'm interested in partners for both private meetings and workshops or playshops, including OneTaste classes. Just meeting like-minded people, with or without the do part would be fun. In any event, establishing this tribe was a great idea. I'm mostly interested in female partners for this type of thing but am open.

Hello,
Really i am just starting with this chapter of my life and looking to learn more
blakc male in Martinez ca
Yes I am looking for someone to help me learn more.
been reading tantra and sex magick books for a while but no actual pratice on any techniques.

Hi Patti!

I've been studying tantra for just a couple years. I was in Sedona last May when Patti and her partner gave a wonderful demonstration of Sweet Rocking. "Do" is new to me too - is it an acronym, or is it just shorthand for Doing good things, with one person in the giver role and the other receiving?

I'm in Minneapolis, but I travel a lot - I'll be in Atlanta for a workshop with Jack Painter, and then in Marin on (non-tantric) business the 2nd week of September; then to Chicago for the next Daka/Dakini conference Sep 21-23.

Hi, Robert here.
The easy part is stating that I live in Las Vegas, most of the things about me are on my profile...
All of the partners I have been with seemed to prefer the, "quick...wam bam...." sex.
Like my personality, I prefer, mellow, slow, sensual play...I'm curious to see if there are others that also enjoy "quality over quantity".
I am currently looking...

Hi everyone. it's nice to see people from all over here to discuss something so interesting.

my name is Ivo, i am a student in a very broad sense. I have pretty good vitals and not enough experience! : ) while in university, taking physics, i indulged in a course about sexuality. it was taught by a wonderful woman who lectured on this subject for 3 hours at a time, i never found it boring. this is why i am here, to talk to real people on something so very personal.

i live near Toronto, that's in Canada....ammmm it's in North America for those who don't know. anyways, so far the only sex i've experienced was within the confines of a monogamous relationship, but i am willing to explore it further. i am not in a relationship right now, but there are many things i miss, mostly on the sensual side of things. i am a very cuddly person, and i don't think intercourse itself is the holy grail of being sexual, there is much in between orgasms that many people miss.

mostly i just miss touching and to be touched by another. i find that very difficult to say in person, and i don't know if i'll meet someone who would understand. it doesn't help to live in the middle of nowhere, and i don't like to drive very far.

it's good to meet y'all!

I came to this tribe because a VERY dear friend of mine is here too and I found that some of the threads were quite interesting and relate to my experience with tantra.

I'm not searching for a DO buddy since I have one now who is VERY satisfying.

Patti your work..."I am an expanded orgasm teacher " intrigues me as I am embarking on Qadishtu training. I hope to learn more about expanded orgasm as related to the techniques mentioned in the tribe description.

Looking forward to learning from you!

Hi,

My name is George and I live in San Jose. I first became aware of the DO about 10 years ago but haven't yet managed to engage with an individual or community who practiced the technique. I would consider myself quite interested but uninitiated. Being a custodial single parent tends to create some challenges in evening/weekend availability but it is manageable with a little planning. Daytimes are easier for me. I identify as poly, tend to be stable in my relationships and this sort of activity would be within the boundaries of my current relationship.

As for philosophy, taste, and style I think that sensual pleasure, the state of arousal, and the sharing of sensual pleasure with friends makes one happier and healthier and helps foster healthier bonds between people. I have always thought that it would be wonderful to be a part of a community of friends who enjoyed sensual pleasure together and so the "Perhaps with enough people we can get some social stuff going" comment in the original posting appealed to me.

I discovered g-spot stimulation about 15 years ago and my former partner of 11 years enjoyed it very much. As for amount of experience and background, I have had some experience many years ago in Taoist practices, practiced yoga in the past, am comfortable in sensual settings involving more than two people but I wouldn't say my life has revolved around my sexual practices either. Mostly I am a parent these days but I discovered this tribe and it looks very comfortable and something I would possibly enjoy exploring further. Oh, and I am willing to drive within a radius of an hour or so without any qualms.

Hi;
I live in the greater Austin TX area. I'm interested in this as part of my change-or-life strategy. I think it's happening and I'm wondeing about how it works out. My medical doctor was of no help at my last physical. As to condition, I've never been this fit in my life and am enjoying it. At the beginning of the year I got serious and lost 40 pounds and now I lookk and feel like a new man. Except that some things aren't working the way they used to . . .
So anyhow I'm looking for alternatives and want to learn.

I'm just up the road from Patti in Mill Valley. I am heterosexual and I am very intuitive at reading a woman's energy and tapping into t in many forms to achieve orgasm for her. I also very much enjoy receiving. If the energy is blocked or incompatable I will decline.

well, I have no formal training, or certs, but I'm 51 and I started exploring my girlfriend when I was 11, so that is 40 years of relentless study of how to bring pleasure through touch. I have studied energy work with shamen, massage with experts, and learned to put my entire attention on my lovers body. I use pressure points, energy along chi lines, and trance work to produce profound altered states that have little to do with the few seconds most people think of as a orgasm. This does not work if you are drunk or high on anything, but it surpasses any drug experience. Unfortunately I've found few women that are ready to go to these places. It takes a very deep level of trust, a clear mind, and a good imagination. I love doing this even more than having it done to me, and I am still looking for someone that I can again explore and delight.

I am a new member, just beginning to explore a new era in my life. I am 50, and presently am in Southern California, the Inland Empire area, but will probably be moving to the Bay Area early next year. I have always enjoyed the energy produced by orgasm, both mine and my partners. In the last few years, I have been in the habit of giving away orgasms by the dozens whenever I am at an event with my giant rocking horses. They have vibrators hidden in the saddles. I see that most of the people here are into more personal methods, and I am very much into both giving and recieving in this manner, too. I very much enjoy the energy given off by a woman's orgasms, I think it is one of the most beautiful moments in life.

Both my wife (Aloha) and I (SoundMan) were introduced to the practices of tantra through Steve and Lokita at Harbin HotSprings (north of SF) about 3 years ago. We took the intro course and enjoyed it so much that we continued to practice what we learned back at home on our own and with mutual friends (we are both polyamorous). The next year, we went back to Harbin and took a class from Steve and Lokita in Erotic Massage. We were so very impressed with the experience that we have, for the last two years, provided gratuitous massages during a week long "vacation" at our "Hedonic Sensual Massage" theme camp at the BurningMan Festival in the Nevada Desert. We have found that unanimously, those who have received an erotic and sensual massage from our camp have experienced the "exhiliration and raising of their spirits" as a result. We both are in the health care profession in our day jobs and are in the middle of our course of study at the local community college at night to earn our certification in Massage. Our home in Reno will be our future workplace for our eventual massage practice. It already has become a teaching facility for us to teach others who would like to learn tantric/hedonic sensual massage techniques. Our workshops are only a couple of hours long at a time and we teach not only the basics of tantra but also explore the techniques of yoni and lingham massage as well. Aloha and I are excited about your "sensual do buddies" group and how it will evolve over time. We would like to be involved in most any direction that this group would like to pursue. Thank you Patti for providing the spark for this group to grow into a beautiful light to shine into our communities.

I'm a healthy and clean 32 year-old male who lives in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles. Although my experience with the sensual arts is rather limited, I am looking to expand my knowledge and to experience the many rewards associated with being in touch with my sensuality/sexuality (extended and multiple orgasms, sensual touch/massage, etc). I am of the opinion that the techniques advanced in this realm cannot be digested simply from reading texts on the topic(s), but rather by discovering a partner with whom to physically engage in the act(s).

Yes, I am willing to travel (I love road trips).......I look forward to hearing from you....By the way, I am a straight male.

I am looking to connect. I like Tantra and BDSM, a perfect combination, they work together easily. But i don't always have to include BDSM (but it is fun). I am a bit disabled, but the doing works fine. I like slow sensual.

As I Age

I want to make love,
not in a frenzied race,
but a quiet aligning
of spirits
for as long as it takes
until we dissolve
into one
and we don't know
if it has been all day
or two days.
When i kiss your eyes
I kiss my eyes.
When I stroke your breasts
I stroke the Goddess' breasts,
and she is pleased.
There is nothing I have
that I can give you,
for it is already yours.
Yet with your touch
you give me stars
and comets to ride
through the cosmos
on a wave that
brings me back to you.

Hello Patti and tribe,
I am a 46 year old male and I work in the health care field. I've always been the type of person who enjoys pleasing. I have a desire to learn about this art of Do-ing. I live in the East Bay and have a somewhat flexible schedule. I would like to connect with others in this group to learn and grow. Thank you.

Hello,
My name is Joe and I am new to this tribe. I have taken a few Tantra classes in the past and am looking to find someone to learn from. I live in the North San Diego Couty area.

Namaste

I'd like to try this here in Las Vegas where I live. Anyone?

Been in this tribe a long time but didn't respond to this yet. I am an older male and a board member of the Association of Sexual Energy Professionals. I still have a lot to learn about sexual energy, and I have been studying it for a long time. I live in the central valley and drive 2 hours to meet several of my sweeties, unfortunately in opposite directions.
