Setting the Stage for Play

TANTRA PLAYGROUND | 12.19.22

I was BUSY at the end of 2022… until I took a much needed holiday break. The funny part is that I wasn’t busy coaching, but rather designing a Tantra Room at Tabu Social Club?!

I was given the magnificent opportunity to re-decorate one of the rooms at the club! If you visit, you’ll have the opportunity to play in my space. I thought it would be fun to use this space to discuss what might go into a Tantra playspace… and how you can recreate a beautiful sensory environment at home.

First, let’s talk about the elephant in the room. A mess. That’s right, I mean first you have to tidy up your space. At the very least, there shouldn’t be visible piles of laundry. Of course, if your kink is going for it amongst the dirty socks, you do you. (My version of “cleaning up” for the Tantra Room, is going to be giving the space at the club a fresh coat of paint!)

Although not necessarily tangible, another important point is having the right intention and instructions. I’m providing some simple tantric instructions in this new playspace at Tabu.

At home, you can be sure to set an intention with your partner before engaging. What do you hope to get out of your experience? Is there a specific method or technique or process you want to engage in together? Thinking about this ahead of time (even if it’s right before you tear each other’s clothes off) helps a lot!

Bringing in all of your senses during play keeps us in the present moment and amplifies our pleasure. What can you bring into the room to tickle your sense of sight, smell, taste, touch, sound? Got a good playlist at the ready? Fresh flowers in the room? Silks or sensory toys? Or do you have a blindfold to use to play with amplifying the other senses?

What have you added to your bedside table to enhance your experience of intimacy? Tell me!
