Cuddle Workshop Yorkshire

*** This group is now closed. Please contact me if you are interested in a one to one appointment, either for connection or for practical help recovering from past abuse. Please also contact me if you would like to offer my workshop at a festival or similar event. ***

Cuddle Workshop Yorkshire is about exploring nurturing touch within safe and agreed boundaries. We explore platonic touch with a series of exercises, and you are encouraged to work out your own boundaries and you will get chance to ask for what touch you would like to receive. We welcome those who are nervous or confident about touch.

All our workshops have a safe and nurturing feel about them, all are LGBT friendly and of course clothing stays on! You are always at choice to step out of anything you find too challenging. I am affiliated with Anna Fortes Mayer's Cuddle Workshop in London which has been around since 2011. I started attending as a 'novice cuddler' several years ago and now co-facilitate some events with Anna. Now I bring to Yorkshire all that I have learned.
On 25/04/16, I was grilled on BBC Radio Leeds Liz Green Breakfast Show about this workshop. Click to Listen:-

And 29/4/2016 I was on nationwide on BBC radio where the presenter was a little kinder to me!

One of the best videos to watch is one filmed at the London Cuddle Workshop, you'll notice me in the video but its worth bearing in mind my venue size allows for a maximum of 15 people. Which is great as you get lots of chances to work with different people, and I find that people are often willing to share their experiences when we have short discussion circles when there are not dozens of people in the room.

If you are a little nervous about attending a group workshop, or possibly recovering from a bad past experience with touch and you think that you might benefit most by a one to one appointment, please message me for details.
