3-Day Immersive in Santa Monica, CA

June 5-7

 
Experiential learning at the intersection of sensual somatics, sexological bodywork, and plant medicines

There comes a moment in relationship when love is present… but the body wants more.

More aliveness.
More honesty.
More pleasure that feels safe enough to fully open.

YES - I WANT IN!

 

This immersive is for couples who feel ready to expand their erotic connection — to learn what their bodies are capable of, and how to meet desire with presence rather than hesitation.

Guided by certified Somatic Sex Educators & Sexological Bodyworkers Ariel Szabo & Rahi Chun, this three-day journey invites you into deeper intimacy through touch, attunement, and embodied relational practice.

In this 3-Day Immersive, you will learn how to:

  • Engage your partner’s erogenous landscape with skill and reverence

  • Yield to touch rather than brace against it

  • Voice desire, boundaries, and body-led truth

  • Stay present in extended states of pleasure

  • Transform lovemaking into a space of healing and altered consciousness

  •  On the final day, couples are offered the optional support of Grandfather Medicine — a gentle heart-opening ally that can deepen embodiment, connection, and emotional access.

A union rooted in interdependence — where connection nourishes rather than depletes.

A meeting of two whole beings, transparent and vulnerable in service to love.

A state where extended pleasure becomes a gateway — opening altered states of consciousness that invite healing, devotion, and expansion.

This work is not performance-based.
It is presence-based.

Not goal-oriented.
But intimacy-oriented.

“This couples retreat was such a huge contrast to our last. Grounded, attuned, spacious, transparent, and moment-to-moment client-centered. The container was clear, with parameters and boundaries articulated and held with quiet, solid integrity. We were blown away and relieved by how ‘normal’ it felt — it brought tears to our eyes.

Rahi Chun and Ariel Szabo model the humble, educated, informed teachers I aspire to be — ‘invisible,’ listening and pivoting to our needs so our own work could surface front and center.

Day 1 laid the groundwork for us landing, attuning, and returning to our bodies and each other. Such a much-needed break from a harried couple of work weeks.”

As a clinical psychologist, I understand the importance of the space-holder to create a safe place for people to go deep. Rahi and Ariel did just that. My partner and I did some profound healing around our inner children and there were concrete take-aways that we have been practicing. I highly recommend their teachings!
