Soulful Touch - Spring 2020

Explore a variety of expressions of touch at a weekend retreat for men. Let massage therapist Arnie Katz guide you on a journey of sensuality & relaxation, where you will learn to use massage, touch, and breath-work to help you let go of stress and foster deeper connections! Learn more below!

Come join together in community with men who love men, to explore a variety of expressions of touch!

You will experience:

• the art of giving and receiving massage and other touch modalities.
• the sensuality, relaxation, and connection that conscious touch offers.
• using massage, touch, and breathwork to get more into our bodies.
• letting go of stress and tension and creating greater ease and freedom.
• communal touch and group touch

Soulful Touch has been designed by Arnie Katz, a massage therapist and workshop facilitator with over 30 years of experience.  In this workshop, we will explore touch as a way to deeply relax, be nurtured, get out of our heads and all the chatter, and heal old stories about our bodies.  We will get more connected to our bodies, to pleasure, and to connection with ourselves and other men in the group.  Arnie is committed to the growth, safety and nurturing of each participant.  He creates a safe space, while encouraging fun in the process. Please note that if you are new to Easton Mountain, we offer a “newbie special”.  See below for more info on the rates and accommodation options.

Here is a comment made by a Bill Durham, a most recent participant at the last Soulful Touch program, October, 2019:

“I recently took my first workshop with Arnie Katz. I have to admit that I am not the kind of person that usually enjoys attending workshops but Arnie put me at ease right away and I just loved his workshop!  He created an environment that was supportive, safe and inviting.  The workshop was extremely well planned out with a good variety of activities.  By the end of the workshop I was feeling so much better than I did at the start.  He is an excellent facilitator and I look forward to signing up for another one of his workshops in the future.  The world needs more people like Arnie!”

Here are some other comments participants had to offer about Arnie’s work:

• “You created a level of comfort for everyone to connect.”
• “You are an excellent facilitator, Arnie. Welcoming, open, accepting. You made it very easy to break through personal barriers.”
• “Arnie’s work is refined and polished.  He is clear and confident, and is a wonderful workshop leader. His workshop was a deeply profound experience for me.”
• “Arnie is such a gentle soul which helped to create a great container”.
