What's Possible

  • Reimagine what it means to become a Daddy, not as a stereotype, but as a grounded expression of confidence, presence, authenticity, and embodied masculinity.
  • Discover how confidence, presence, wisdom, and erotic vitality can deepen—not diminish—with age.
  • Learn how to own your “inner daddy" as a conscious, embodied way of being seen and seeing others.
  • Leave with a deeper sense of freedom, connection, and authenticity in your erotic and emotional life to carry through the rest of you life.

What to Expect

  • Begin to reimagine aging as a time of deeper erotic vitality, emotional maturity, and meaningful connection rather than decline.
  • Opportunities for group connection and reflection on how aging, identity, and desire intersect in the lives of gay men.
  • The experiential approach Body Electric is known for, including breath, movement, guided reflection, and conscious connection—and how these practices support personal, emotional, and erotic growth.
  • Connect with others who are curious about embracing this next stage of life with greater confidence and authenticity.
Eros doesn't fade. It deepens.

Description

🌶️🌶️🌶️High Spiciness (clothing optional events that may include sexual touch)

This workshop is for cisgender men and non-binary people AMAB (assigned male at birth). Please contact us if you have questions about which workshop is right for you. If you have questions or specific needs, please contact Max at max@bodyelectric.org.

About the Workshop

As gay men, we often learn to define ourselves through youth, performance, and desire. But something powerful happens as we approach midlife. Our bodies change, our turn-ons shift, and our relationship to sex, love, and identity begins to evolve. Daddy Rising is a multi-day immersive workshop designed for gay men ages 35–55 who are ready to explore the erotic, emotional, and spiritual transformations of midlife with openness, curiosity, and pride.

Through guided practices in breath, touch, movement, and conscious connection, we’ll discover that our eros doesn’t fade—it deepens. Together, we’ll examine how aging impacts libido, arousal, and body image, while celebrating new ways to experience pleasure, intimacy, and confidence. This is an opportunity to release what no longer serves, honor the man you’ve become, and step fully into the magnetic power of presence, maturity, and self-acceptance.

Ask your coordinator if there’s a promo code or discount available to you. Contact Max at max@bodyelectric.org.

This workshop will take place on the traditional and ancestral lands of the Mohican and Mohawk peoples.
