Description:
In line with our camp ethos, we will spread the Heart Train love to the greater community by hosting a daily facilitated ‘Love, Relationships, and Sex’ Workshop. The workshop is an open invitation to all to share their thoughtful and hilarious stories about love, relationships and sex. It will be intimate. It will be playful. It will be a celebration of all aspects of love! This workshop's is for wayward Burners looking to make friends and connections before heading off on adventures together. It will run for approximately 2 hours a day in the Heart Train ‘Artery Lounge’ and will be hosted by Heart Train Crew. In each session we take turns introducing ourselves and then facilitate a group generated dialogue through annoymous questions submitted by each participant. The facilitated questions will maintain a fun and light tone e.g., what’s the cringiest thing you’ve ever done for love? What is your sexiest body part (silly answers only)? What is love to you? The group generated questions are anonymous and which gives an air of wonder. In the past, the result has forum filled with a lot of laughs, deep & meaningful chats, and social bonding. On any given day, we may explore a more specific theme, e.g. Cultural Expressions of Love, Survival Tips for Relationships at Burning Man, Self-Love & Masterbation, or Cringey Sexy Stories. At Camp Heart Train we hold space for meaningful story telling, humorous tales, emotional recollections of personal growth and of course – raunchy details are always welcome. From there we close the workshop, each sharing a gratitude. We will also give a quick description of local attractions in the neighbourhood that participants can enjoy whilst being in our part of BRC. They are also welcomed to stay, chill and mingle with our camp mates. It is our intention to create a welcoming and inclusive place for lonely hearts and travelers to jump aboard the Heart Train! This workshop is the perfect icebreaker - let take this joy ride together!
