”I had a great time at Adam's Heart Centered Touch Retreat, which was informative and fun.

It was great to share nakedness, sexuality, massage and mindfulness in a way that was both adventurous and liberating.

I also am enjoying the meditative health benefits of QiGong - Taoist practice I learned at the retreat. The retreat was freeing in the best possible way... a profound gift to myself.

I can't wait to sign up for another!"

- Jay W. Toronto, CANADA

"A lot was new for me in the GAY-TANTRA workshop. I became aware of my body again. As more of a head person, I was able to reconnect with my body again.

It was a gift for me!"

- Billy G, Miami, FL

"Adam Brown’s Heart-Centered Touch retreat is a very valuable experience. Not only did I gain new techniques, but I learned more about myself.

The entire time brought on a renewed sense of peace, hope and energy in my life.

I highly recommend it to anyone!”

- Kelly O, Santa Ana, CA

"Our GAY-TANTRA workshop with Armin Heining was great! It was the perfect workshop to help my fiancé and I reconnect and grow deeper in our relationship.

The other participants were friendly and had a wide range of ages. We connected with another couple quickly and really enjoyed our time with them during our workshop. The group exercises and meditations were helpful to connect with everyone and we had time for just my fiancé and I to connect as well.

We’d highly recommend Armin’s workshops as he caters to couples and singles alike in a fun group environment."”

- Kyle H. & Joshua K, Syracuse, NY
