Intimacy Workshops

Safe, Intentional Intimacy for the Stage and Screen

Clinically grounded, experiential group workshops for acting ensembles, directors, and creative teams navigating love scenes, kissing scenes, and physical intimacy in performance, safely, intentionally, and with full consent.

Built for Performers and Creative Teams

These workshops are specifically designed for acting groups, ensembles, film casts, and theatre companies who need to build the trust, safety, and relational groundwork necessary to authentically and comfortably perform intimate scenes, including love scenes, kissing scenes, and physical closeness on stage or screen.

Facilitated by a licensed clinician, each workshop is clinically grounded, consent-forward, and tailored to the specific needs of your cast or creative team, so that every performer feels safe, respected, and fully prepared.
