Philosophy
Your life is about love. Love holds us together. Love means much more than physical
love. Love is a holistic celebration of mind, body, and spirit caring. Sensual touch
should not be solely for sexual gratification. Ideally, all touch heals your partners, and
improves their health, their mood, and their ability to connect deeply to you. It teaches the
person giving and receiving to be more present with others, and with their own body. We
unite healing touch techniques with sensual techniques to teach our guests to care for
their partners holistically.
Sacred Sensuality
Sensual touch includes hugs, snuggles, etc. Sensual touch also includes, but is not
limited to, sexual touch. 90% of tantra is non-sexual. It is also a healing, connecting,
healthy experience.
Healing is about holistic connection with others, and one's higher self. We begin with
communication, and negotiation. Romance starts at the first glance exchanged with your
prospective partner. Touch begins with stillness, and breathing, as you "listen" to their
body, mind, and spirit.
History
Harmony learned healing and sensual touch techniques to interact in a more intimate
way with all of his friends. His spiritual development largely branched out of healing
through touch. Harmony has over six months of full time touch training.
Backrubs and Frontrubs started simply because Harmony enjoys rubbin' people. What
started with intimate 5 person touch parties quickly gained popularity. Harmony attended
a ROMP Naked event, where the tantra expert did not show up to the party. Harmony
facilitated a group who traded touch. There he created the model we still use, and
coined the phrase "the most likely way to get touched is to give touch first". Soon
Harmony spontaneously led groups at larger events. He has taught at campouts such
as Critical Massive and the Center for Sex Positive Culture's "Paradise Unbound"
campout. Currently Harmony teaches in Seattle, at the Sharma Center. He should soon
be teaching in Portland, Tacoma, Bellingham, and Vancouver BC, and ... wherever you
invite him. He would love to teach you soon. Almost all profits go to charities. Harmony
teaches to create community.
Environmentalism
Harmony usually travels by bicycle or public transportation to events rather than harming
the planet by driving. Future generations desperately need us to rapidly decrease our
harmful emissions. Please do not take long car trips to Harmony's events. He will come
to you...on a bicycle.
Compassion
Food at events is often raw, seasonal, and vegan. Harmony prefers cruelty free
massage products. May the world be free from suffering. Now. Starting with you.
