THE YOGA OF SEX: Sexological Bodywork Home Schooling with Joseph Kramer, Ph.D.
The Yoga of Sex course invites you to experience how humans learn sex. Profound embodied learning takes place when we repeat a practice mindfully over time. This yoga model of education works, making erotic practice fun, rewarding and transformational.
The new profession of Sexological Bodywork uses the yoga model of education. Certification as a professional Sexological Bodyworker is available through the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco and through the International Institute for Sexological Bodywork in Zürich.
The Yoga of Sex course offers the entire Sexological Bodywork training in a home study format. Home schooling was never so much fun. Although this course was designed for professional somatic sex educators, anyone interested in learning Sexological Bodywork as an erotic yoga practice can enroll. Upon enrollment, you will have access for one year to all the materials from the California State-Approved Professional Certification course including video teachings, an online course workbook, readings, and somatic assignments.
You can enroll in this course at anytime. The complete Yoga of Sex teachings are presented three times each year. Students can choose to go through the four-month cycle one or more times. Everyone chooses his or her own level of participation or non-participation. This format offers the flexibility needed for students to direct their own somatic learning.
This course, sponsored by The New School of Erotic Touch, does not provide professional certification. Many Yoga of Sex students do use the course materials in their professional lives and to prepare for future certification as Sexological Bodyworkers.
These resources are available for Yoga of Sex students:
An online course workbook that will guide your sexual practice sessions and your video education. Here is a segment from the workbook.
A private online forum for communication among students and faculty, including an archive of previous postings.
A monthly ninety-minute phone seminar with Joseph Kramer, Ph.D., on topics such as peak somatic learning, erotic trance states, sensory-motor amnesia, coaching erotic embodiment, shame and pleasure, and Taoist Erotic Massage.
A monthly ninety-minute phone gathering with Ariadne H. Luya, D.H.S., addressing student concerns, questions and experiences.
One year of membership to The New School of Erotic Touch, with an unlimited access to all classes and an expanding library of video teachings. If you are currently enrolled in The New School, we will extend your membership by a year or adjust your tuition.
This abundance of sex education resources is available to everyone who wishes to explore what is erotically possible in theory and practice. You choose your own level of participation. Upon enrolling, all students must introduce themselves to Joseph Kramer, Ph.D by email. Let him know your personal and/or professional reasons for joining this course. Be sure to include any education and experience you have in the area of bodywork or sex education.
*Each Yoga of Sex student will receive a $200 scholarship towards the Professional Sexological Bodywork training at the Institute For Advanced Study of Human Sexuality or at the International Institute for Sexological Bodywork in Switzerland. To receive this scholarship, students must be enrolled in The Yoga of Sex for four months and not more than twelve months before the beginning date of their professional training.
