~ FAQ ~

How does this work with the pandemic going on?

Very similar to the in-person events. However, we will respect social distancing, require masks at all times, and we will limit the attendance to half capacity. The dating stations have been modified (and some new ones created) so that we can maintain the spirit of the event while maintaining social distancing.

What is Tantra Yoga?

Well, for starters, it's not what you saw in American Pie! Tantra is thousands of years old (of Hindu and Buddhist tradition) and has become a buzzword, which unfortunately has some misleading definitions. Translated from Sanskrit, it means "weaving," which means bringing oneness to yourself and consciousness to what you do. The exercises are designed to bring you into a state of being more present when you meet your dates. And who doesn't want to be more present, right?

What if I don't feel comfortable doing the exercises?

Thanks for asking! While the exercises are straightforward and fun, you are always 100% at choice for how you wish to participate. If you find an exercise that doesn't work for you, then--just like in yoga--you have the option to modify or completely opt out. Everyone is encouraged to participate at their own comfort level, and our facilitators demonstrate what that looks like so everyone is clear before we begin.

What's the age range?

Some events are open and some have a specific age range (stated in the title)--though it's merely a suggestion, not a rule. See our statistics and learn why people love the open events on our FAQ.
