September 9, 2016 – September 10, 2016

Surrender, Trust, and Sexual Spirituality
Talks and Dialogues with David Deida

Bestselling author David Deida continues to light the way to a fuller expression of our unique purpose in love and in life. David teaches that in order to offer our deepest gifts—whether it’s in bed, with our art, or through our work—we must surrender as openly as this total moment and trust in the unknowable being that lives with our whole body.

With Surrender, Trust, and Sexual Spirituality, you are invited to a rare public teaching appearance with David Deida held in Boulder, Colorado, on September 9–10, 2016. Beginning on Friday night and through all of Saturday, you’ll join David Deida for a series of spontaneous teachings, new insights, provocative practices, and question-and-answer sessions intended to help you relax the heart’s contractions, illuminate that which we tend to keep hidden, and create an authentic “yoga of intimacy” throughout your days and nights.

Join us on Friday evening for an opening talk from David Deida. Saturday morning begins with two hours of light movement practices and exercises led by David’s trained assistants. Dress in comfortable, casual clothing suitable for light movement.
