Zahava dances. Love Making Dances? Yes, that’s what makes the dances she performs, choreographs, teaches, and creates with clients. What started as twenty-five years of professional ballet, modern, contact improv, West African, Middle Eastern and Sufi dance became a path of moving the body, mind, and soul consciously in space, sex, relationships, and tribe! While training as a Sexual Shaman with Kenneth Ray Stubbs she learned dance had become her doorway to orgasmic states of consciousness and connection with source. And that dance includes stillness.

Presentation: Love Making Dances
A 30 minute guided moving meditation to open and heighten sensation in our body. Open, sweaty, and present, we engage the breath and voice to build sexual energy as a tribe. Surrender inhibitions to creativity. Connect deeper to the instincts, truth, and pleasure of your body.
ROUNDUP EXCLUSIVE: 90-minute workshop with Zahava and Om ($25)
The Art and Logic of Orgasmic Meditation
Orgasmic Meditation is a very rich practice of connecting with your lover in a structured and conscious way. In this 90-minute workshop we will demonstrate OMing with a woman in the receiving position. We will discuss the intention and logic behind its structure and the opportunities it provides for bringing more awareness into our sex, both at the beginning level as well as at more advanced stages.
Some benefits that OMing creates are:
- Increased ability to surrender control
- Opportunity to have more powerful and longer lasting orgasms
- Opportunity for women to feel unconditionally valued by men
- Releasing fears and ego games that have prevented pleasure in the past.
- Bringing more lightness and play in all of your relationships.
- Feeling that Spirit is the source of physical pleasure.
Would you want the opportunity to feel more pleasure and trust with your partner the next time you have sex? Join a community dedicated to honoring the feminine as sacred and giving men tools to be more present lovers.
This structured meditation practice involves sexual contact. The teachers will offer a live demonstration including nudity. Workshop attendees will be watching and encouraged to ask questions. Workshop attendees will keep their clothes on at all times and may leave the workshop at any time.
Date: Sunday, Sept 26th
Time: 11am-12:30pm
