The Himeros Retreat for men
Desire by Design
A week-long immersion in somatic sex education for men, built around five private sessions with experienced female practitioners.

What makes us different
Five private sessions. One practitioner. A real arc.
We believe pleasure and desire are guiding forces in how we navigate all of life, and until we're aligned with these deepest parts of ourselves, we can never fully know ourselves.
Each day, you'll have a private somatic sex education session with a trained and experienced female practitioner. You're paired with one practitioner for the week, and together you move through a five-session arc: an opportunity to explore hands-on experiences in arousal, embodiment and desire.

A demonstration of what a somatic sex education session can look like.
The curriculum
Reveal your Erotic Signature
Every Himeros retreat is designed to help you reveal your unique Erotic Signature, and to embody your desires with clarity and confidence.
The curriculum is built on the Desire by Design philosophy: an intentional four-step journey to understand and embrace your erotic identity.
Using the foundations of somatic sex education, our practitioners guide you deeper into connection with yourself through breath, sound, touch, movement and interoception.
Somatic brotherhood
You don't do this alone
Alongside your private sessions, you'll share the week with a small group of men doing the same work.
Each night, the men's group is a place to examine old beliefs about relating to other men, to be honest about what's coming up, and to be met without performance or competition.
Through group mat work and shared time together, the week becomes a chance to build real friendship and trust with other men.
