About this Event
A somatic movement workshop, fire creation ritual & community sauna time - to celebrate the solstice in community - co-facilitated by Luke McLaughlin & Taylor Johnson.
🚘 ARRIVAL TIME: 2:40-2:55
Arrive “early,” because the workshop starts at 3.
🍃WORKSHOP & FIRE CREATION: 3:00-5:00
The movement workshop combines elements of primal movement, generative somatics, contact improv and mobility training… (led by Taylor).
After we build the inner fire through movement, we’ll transition into a group fire-creation ritual, where we’ll explore the mythos of fire and literally create the central fire for our evening with our bare hands in a unique friction fire method (led by Luke).
🔥RESTORATIVE SAUNA LOUNGE: 5:00-7:00
In community, we get to recharge with sauna, cold plunge, showers and a central fire. There’ll be conversation prompts given (inspired by authentic relating + generative somatics) to build connection, network, and help you move towards the future you want.
*IMPORTANT NOTE:
This is a highly interactive event — not a solitary yoga class. Many exercises involve intentional physical contact with others - for the sake of learning, teamwork & growth. You will always have full choice with partners and the level of physical contact that works for you.

**Personal Note (Taylor here): Movement has become huge in my life... you could say I've fallen in love with it as a modality over the past few years. I don't yet consider myself a "teacher" of movement... more a practitioner/student - someone who loves sharing this art & practice with other people. And while it is true that I will be guiding what we do together... Luke and I will be in the practices with you - doing all the same things, because we want to do this in community. :)
LUKE & TAYLOR’S BIO:
Through wild adventures into the many layers of being human (Luke as a wilderness survival instructor & multi-time winner of Naked & Afraid, and Taylor as a sexologist specializing in men’s vitality & sexual health) Luke & Taylor have figured out how to combine forces to create the ultimate in man stuff experiences. Like that? :p 💪 🔨 🔥
All jokes aside…
We’re looking forward to meeting you and guiding us all through some fun & meaningful processes that will help us deepen & grow as men in this modern world. Reach out if you have any questions.
