Intimacy and Eros
Kirkridge Retreat Center - Bangor, Pennsylvania
April 23, 2010 to April 25, 2010
This Retreat is for Gay and Bi Men
Limited to 16 participants
Our first workshop at the wonderful Kirkridge Retreat Center. Kirkridge is set atop the mountains in the beautiful Delaware Water Gap, only 90 minutes from New York City or Philadelphia. In this very special workshop, Kevin Kortan combines his passions for life and erotic exploration, as he guides you into ever-deepening experiences of intimacy, body, breath, Eros and Spirit.
Are you looking for greater intimacy in your life? Is something preventing you from fully enoying the touch of another man? Do you want to better express yourself through touch? Are you wanting deeper and more meaningful relationships? Then this is the workshop for you!
We will explore allowing ourselves to become vulnerable; to move past the fears of being hurt; to move towards a willingness to take the risk of being imtimate. Then we will expand our explorations to enjoy the touch of another man. Where and how far you want to go will be up to you.
There will be a great balance of structured time and free time, time to socialize and/or time to be with yourself, and nature, in silence.
Together - A Retreat for Gay Couples
Thatch Caye, Belize
April 24, 2010 to May 01, 2010
This Retreat is for Gay Male Couples
Our first retreat dedicated to couples! We join together on an island off the coast of Belize for eight days of celebrating our togetherness. There are only enough rooms on the island for ten couples, so register early. This very special retreat will be filled with activities to help us grow even closer together as couples. Whether your time together has been two months or twenty years, this is a chance to connect deeper with the man you love, as well as a chance for relaxation and play.
Our days are designed at a very leisurely pace and will offer abundant free time to just to be together on this secluded island. After breakfast, we come together as a group to explore such things as:
Keeping the "fire" alive in your relationship
Does a relationship really require "work"?
Trust
What it means to be a couple
Acceptance
Unconditional Love
Fears
The afternoons are free to do whatever you like: go snorkeling or scuba diving; take a "discover scuba" excursion, take a kayak out to explore the surrounding cayes; lay on the beach; go fishing or swimming; take a nap in the hammock on your cabana's deck; go to the mainland or just find your own way of "igniting your fire".
After dinner, we come together again to continue exploring ourselves as individuals and ourselves as a couple. There will be opportunities to learn new ways to deepen our levels of mental, spiritual and sexual intimacy. During sessions involving physical intimacy, we will work only with our partners. This retreat is not an exploration of group sex.
Our group sessions are not lectures or filled with the latest trend in psychology or "psychobabble". Our time together as a group will be exploratory, experiential and inspirational. Through discerning exercises and questions, you will be challenged to look deeply at yourself and to uncover your "stories". It is our belief in these "stories" that keep us from living a free and joyous life; that prevent us from loving, and being loved, to the fullest. The freer we are as individual men, the stronger we are as couples.
The Wonders of Egypt - 2010
Egypt and the Nile
May 02, 2010 to May 15, 2010
This Journey is for Everyone
A private visit to the King's Chamber inside the Great Pyramid...
A private visit to the Sphinx to stand between it's paws, to place your hands upon it...
A private visit to the Isle of Philae and the Temple of Isis at sunrise...
Eight days cruising the Nile on our own private dahabiya (a luxury sailing yacht)...
A small, intimate group of fellow journeyers (a maximum of 16)...
All this, and more, make this is a very special Spirit Journey indeed,
one that can truly be called "a journey of a lifetime."
Come experience Egypt as few people ever will as we make special arrangements to be allowed inside the Great Pyramid and to get up close and personal with the Sphinx, things that are off limits to the public and have been for many years. These are just two of the many opportunities that wait for you on this wonderful journey. We choose to go to Egypt in early May because there are far fewer tourists present, allowing us a lot more private time in the temples. The temperatures in Egypt in early May are still comfortable and the heat is certainly not unbearable.
We spend eight days sailing the Nile on a private dahabiya. A dahabiya is river-going sailboat, much like what we would call a sailing yacht these days. They were common in Egypt in the days of the monarchy (1920s-40s) when aristocrats and sophisticated travelers loved to cruise the Nile in style. With no motor (and the associated noise and fumes), this is a wonderful way to enjoy Egypt at a leisurely pace, to drink in the landscapes, and peruse the monuments and villages on the riverbanks. There are only 10 cabins onboard (typical Nile river boats have 50 cabins or more), so this is wonderfully intimate way to sail the Nile. Also, because a dahabiya is so much smaller than the usual large river boats that cruise the Nile, we can sail much closer to the banks of the Nile, bringing Egypt right to our finger tips as we lazily drift by. We can also stop at many places too small for river boats to dock.

Tantric Tribes - Naked Yoga for Men
Asheville, North Carolina
June 17, 2010 to June 20, 2010
This Workshop is for Gay and Bi Men
A Tantra and Naked Yoga Workshop
Join Spirit Journeys for four days of rejuvenation and reawakening. The fusion of the powerful and complementary practices of Tantra and Yoga allows you to harness your sexual drive and awaken your Kundalini energy. Once harnessed, this energy is channeled into a dynamic and healing force in your life. The practice of Tantra alone is a very energizing experience, but blending the benefits and principles of yoga with tantra sexual practices transforms all aspects of your life.
In this workshop, you learn the basics of yoga and breathing practices. Using a step by step, practical approach, you integrate the essential elements of Tantric sexual techniques. Channeling your erotic energy helps unlock your creativity, transforming your sexual experiences and significantly altering all other aspects of your life. There will plenty of "down time" just to relax and connect with the others in the group.
Participants work with themselves, with the group as a whole, and with randomly chosen partners. During experiential work, participants conduct personal (and often playful) "experiments" to observe and gain new insights and methods to awaken a deeply satisfying, revolutionary approach to sexual practices.
Join Vancouver Pride Society as we celebrate this summer, Sunday, August 1st, 2010.
