REBECCA FRANCES

Rebecca is a coach, workshop and breathwork facilitator, and writer.  Her focus is on sexuality, pleasure, relaxation and the exploration of how to live a rich emotional, physical life.  She uses her studies in academia, yoga, massage, butoh dance, sexological bodywork, tao yoga and philosophy to inform her work.

Her individual coaching sessions encourage self-educating and self-healing through the use of somatic enquiry, massage and touch, breathwork and hypnotic meditations.  She facilitates groups and workshops, focusing on individual agency, comfort in challenge, and making things fun through undogmatic experimentation. As a workshop facilitator, she is interested in the creation of ritual, an acceptance of being clueless (as a wonderful indicator of getting close to the edge of ourselves), and in the innate divinity engendered through bodies and touch.  

She holds a degree from Cambridge University where she studied the philosophy, literature and art of the body and of sexuality.  She has 600+hrs of massage, breathwork and bodywork training (David Lutt, Thai Massage Circus, Kaline Kelly, Daniel Odier, Martin Beaudoin), 400+hrs RYT yoga teacher training (Surinder Ji, Lizzie and Judith Lasater, Rajiv Chanchani), has experience studying tantra and conscious sexual practices (Swami Vivekananda, Yonathan Saar, Felix Ruckert, Kai Erdhart) is an ongoing student of Taoist practices under the tutelage of Udo Treide, and has studied Sexological Bodywork with the ISB Berlin.

She explores philosophical and poetic approaches to soma through hands-on, creative and experimental physical practices, using her intellectual background and professional interests to continue her investigation of exactly what happens when two bodies touch and why we want that or don’t want that so much.  Her articles and (as yet unpublished) book offer a critical, personal and visceral insight into these topics.

TANTRA – WITH A PINCH OF SALT – RETREAT IN SPAIN

Bodies…what can they do?  Bring your body to us and we will find out. Using tantra massage as a springboard into the clumsy, complex world of human relations, we help you expand your carnal knowledge. This intense form of intimacy, a massage technique performed and received in the nude, contains so much human potential.  This luxurious act gives democratic attention to all body parts, allowing space for whatever wants to come up.  With care and attention, we guide you through movement and meditative mornings which bring you into closer contact with yourself.  From there, with humility and humour, we ask the question: is today’s erogenous zone your eyelashes or your ears, your feet or your asshole?  Do you need a break or a debate, a hug or a slap in the face?

(AN)OTHER INTIMACY – SENSORY EXPLORATIONS

Intimität abseits von festen Mustern und Konventionen ist fantastisch, kreativ und unvorhersehbar – das macht sie so reizvoll, aber auch ziemlich komplex und herausfordernd. In den (AN)OTHER INTIMACY Workshops wollen wir uns auf dieses Wagnis einlassen! Der Kurs SENSORY EXPLORATIONS widmet sich der Sinnlichkeit unserer Körper – sehend, hörend, riechend, tastend, schmeckend. In diesen fünf Modi bewegen wir uns durch das Wochenende, und lassen uns dabei vom Konzept des Beginner's Mind leiten, der eine innere Haltung von Offenheit, Neugier und der wohltuenden Abwesenheit von Vorannahmen oder -urteilen meint. Miteinander entdecken wir unser Sensorium neu, als ob wir zum ersten Mal die fabelhaften...

TANTRA – WITH A PINCH OF SALT – RETREAT IN SPAIN

Das, was wir im modernen Westen „Tantramassage” nennen, verdient es entstaubt und entrümpelt zu werden, um in frischem Glanz zu erstrahlen. Denn wir wollen die luxuriös langen, tiefen, sinnlich-ölig-warmen Streicheleinheiten und die orgasmischen Ganzkörpergefühle - ohne das unterkomplexe Gerede über männliche und weibliche "Energien". Wir wollen in der radikal zärtlichen Freude baden, mit voller Präsenz in einem gehaltenen Raum berührt zu werden…

BREATHE, SENSE, FANTAZISE – A RETREAT FOR EMBODIED BEINGS AND THEIR LASCIVIOUS MINDS

Oh, life! Welcome back. We went through something like hibernation. Carefully we now blink our eyelids, stretch our limbs, crawl out of our nests and dare to slowly open ourselves up to a new world. This is exciting. And overwhelming. And a fascinating chance to reinvent. Where do we begin? Why not at the beginning: it all started with your breath and with your senses. Feeling, hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting. Fundamental as they are they tend to be taken for granted. But once we give full attention to them they generate powerful visceral pleasures and…
