Advanced Sexuality

The training is for practitioners who already work with or are trained in a field related to sexuality or pelvic work and are ready to go deeper. It builds clinical confidence to work with precision, hold complex cases involving dysfunction, trauma, and sexual health issues, and grow a sustainable practice.

Why this training exists

The Gaia Method approach is built on the conviction that the body holds its own resolution. Blockages are outdated protective responses; the work is invitational, never forceful. The training integrates five disciplines into one methodology: Soft-Dearmouring, the Natural Breath, Energy Work, Sound, and Psychotherapy. It also builds clinical literacy for recognising when symptoms may indicate serious medical conditions and when to refer or collaborate.

Curriculum

7 online modules, 3 Q&A calls, and a 9-day live immersion.

• Pelvic & Genital Anatomy: Deep anatomical study of the female and male pelvic and genital region — structures, functions, and clinical significance.
• Soft-Dearmouring — Advanced Protocols: Point-by-point dearmouring of the female genitals (clitoris, labia, vestibule, vaginal canal, cervix, scar tissue) and male genitals. Detailed, reproducible, and clinically grounded.
• Female Sexual Dysfunctions: Comprehensive study of female sexual dysfunctions including vaginismus, vulvodynia, and more, including the LODCCTRAAP clinical framework for complex female presentations.
• Arousal Physiology & Capacity: The physiology of engorgement, erection, arousal, and orgasm. Evidence-based tools to support clients in increasing arousal capacity. No sexual interaction — entirely clinical and professional.
• The Intelligent Psoas: The psoas as a psycho-emotional and sexual organ — its role in pelvic health, trauma holding, and sexual function. Self-practice and client protocols.
• Sexual Trauma in Clinical Practice: Childhood and adult sexual abuse, amnesia, trauma presentation in the body, and boundary training in sessions.
• Prostate Health & Male Sexual Healing: Anatomy, function, dysfunction, and disease of the prostate. Prostate massage protocols and the orgasmic prostate. Male practice clients will come from outside the group for some practice sessions.
• Mastering Your Sexual Energy Exchange: Absolute control over the flow of one's own sexual energy — starting and stopping it — so it becomes a precise tool and does not contaminate a session.

Included with the training

A 195-page clinical compendium covering anatomy at specialist depth, the physiology of arousal and dysfunction, the LODCCTRAAP clinical case-taking framework for complex female presentations, sexual trauma theory and practice, prostate anatomy and protocols, and ready-to-use intake forms and palpation protocols.

Who this training is for

Practitioners who already work with or are trained in a field related to sexuality or pelvic work. The prerequisite is relevant experience or training in a related field, not necessarily a formal certification or extensive hands-on hours. Relevant experience includes any professional training or practice involving working with the pelvic region, genitals, or sexuality, whether or not it carries a formal sexological qualification.

Welcome to apply:

• Graduates of The Gaia Method Fundamental Practitioner training
• Sexological Bodyworkers
• Dearmouring practitioners with clinical experience in genital work
• Tantra masseuses experienced or trained in genital work
• Pelvic physiotherapists
• Midwives and gynaecologists
• Others whose training includes genital and pelvic work

Gaia Method graduates may enrol directly. Outside practitioners are invited to apply through a free discovery call; if accepted, they receive the Gaia Method genital dearmouring points and complete 10 practice sessions before attending the live training. Graduates of the previous Advanced Sexuality training may attend the 7 online modules as a standalone option.

(Bed options in shared and private rooms are available for an additional €45–€180 for the entire stay, depending on room type.)
