Continuing Professional Development

Embodied Sexuality: Feeling Your Yes and No

with Imraan Ismail

Sunday June 1st 2025

5:00 PM BST - 6:00 PM CEST - 7:00 PM IDT - 7:00 PM MSK - 9 AM PDT - 12 pm EDT  (JUNE 2ND 2 AM AEST - 4 AM NZST )


This 2-hour online session offers a clear, experiential introduction to embodied sexuality.
We will begin with guided movement practice, focusing on developing somatic awareness of yes and no as they arise in the body. From there, we’ll transition into paired exercises to explore how these internal signals respond and shift in relational space.
The second part of the session includes two layers of group reflection:
  • A participant-centered discussion to share personal experience and insight
  • A facilitator-focused dialogue unpacking the teaching objectives and the structure behind the practice.
Finally we will cover the key principles of embodied sexuality, including foundational theory and accessible practices.
This session is designed to support both personal exploration and professional development, offering tools to deepen presence, cultivate consent, and engage the erotic with integrity and care.

About Imraan

Born in South Africa as a person of colour and living through the end of Apartheid, I had an unusual childhood. In addition to being raised as Sufi, I realised I was queer.

This opened me up to a path of tantra as well as the LGBTQI+ community. I soon realised that there was a real need for people to become more aware of their boundaries and informed consent within these communities (and in general life).

I am trained as an Open Floor teacher, graduating in 2018. I am active in Sex Positive communities in Belgium and the Netherlands, teaching embodied consent workshops as well as workshops on grounding and centering while connecting to needs, desires and boundaries.

I have studied a more gentle approach to body-dearmouring that is trauma-informed.

I draw on all these teachings, together with my spiritual background, as well as my Masters’ degree in biochemistry and genetics, in my workshops.
