Many men come to bodywork carrying more than physical tension. They’re also carrying stress, guardedness, and the pressure to always stay “on”. Especially when confronted with intimacy and their sexual relationship to self, partners, society, and trauma.

For a lot of queer men, experiences like this also reconnect us to something that’s often missing in modern life: healthy masculine contact. There’s a long tradition of men bonding through physical work. Somatic Sexological Bodywork taps into that same dynamic. It becomes less about “getting off” and more about allowing another man to help your body reset. The opportunity to remap neural pathways that better relate with your deepest intimacy, is an informed practice in discovering a more complete erogenous experience with your body, mind, and spirit.

My training originated in the expressive body while working as a certified conditioning and stretch mobility coach for elite circus artists. At this time I was blending; Sports Medicine, Deep Tissue, and Thai Massage. All of which, when paired, led to restorative and generative mobility and strength. I had the gift of working with a wildly diverse scope of physical ability and body types. Truly unmatched by the therapeutic capacity of massage alone.

That experience is foundational to my career now. Having the opportunity to use bodywork as a constructive tool in expressive somatic movement established the core belief of my practice now. The belief that our body holds a conditioned relationship to our experience moving through the world.

Applying my study of neural affective touch mapping to my existing bodywork naturally led to a passion for Sexology. Sexology is a beautifully diverse scope of work and knowledge. I’m grateful and proud that my somatic practice is recognized in the field. Understanding the body as a unique expressive tool, with the capacity to be directed with erotic/sensual compassion, should be acknowledged with the deepest of integrity and honesty.

I enjoy working the full spectrum of erotic and sensual massage. Genuinely exchanging intimacy with queer men is of the highest value. My continued education will always drive my interest toward working to remap trauma. Whether that be a physical assault, familial shame and punishment, societal judgment and expectations, etc. Working specifically with the queer community has no shortage of unique pairings between identity and genital anatomy. Exploring the capacity of masculinity within these variables to create a fully embodied somatic experience for clients is truly a rewarding process.
