We are often taught to approach the body as a means to an end. A vehicle for productivity, pleasure, or desirability whose limitations are to be pushed through when possible. What if we took a radically different approach? Befriending the body. As it is right now. Listening to and meeting its voice with kind touch and holding. States of (un)dress and/or genital holding are welcomed. There will be options for holding / being held by others.
