What happened to my previous offerings?
Well, to be honest, I’ve been on a bit of a rollercoaster in terms of personal experience, tantra, and life in general.
I have always considered MenSensual a side-line, besides what I do to earn a living, but then I realised something about myself: I do love teaching the techniques associated with tantra, but I wasn’t doing with MenSensual what I originally set out to do – teaching! |
"OFFERING" (original website content) "MenSensual offers a mix of activities that could be either more relaxing and enlightening, or more instructive for further practice afterwards ... whichever path you choose, you can expect to learn and experience something beyond your daily routine." |
I had anticipated a lot more interest from couples, so that the setup would be teacher <> practising couple, but I found that most of those who contacted me where singles hoping to experience tantric sensuality rather than learn to apply it with their partner.
I’m certainly not opposed to physical contact with whoever wants to learn techniques, but there is a fine line between tantric experience and ending up doing something very close to sex work. And that was a line I had a hard time defining while not overstepping my own boundaries, quite apart from a level of care I feel for those who accepted my offering. |
"Mission" (original website content) Exploring nurturing sensuality with your partner and introducing new things can be a nice change of pace.

Of course, coming on your own and experiencing some of what was on offer at MenSensual also fits the profile that I put out there, but I didn’t feel ready to exclusively do one-on-one sessions as they require constant switching between teaching and participating. That is fine on occasion, but it ultimately didn’t work for me.
In the end, the whole Covid situation helped me make the decision to put all activities with MenSensual on hold – for now. That doesn’t mean I won’t return to doing this work at some point, though. I’m holding space in my mind and body to resurrect this line of interaction when it feels right. There.
I am practising tantra, meditation and sensuality for myself, though, and have decided to keep the blog alive for the time being. As long as I get a reasonable number of visitors, that is all I can ask for.
