Q1: How long will the orgasms be?
A: Well, that depends.
Q1: So, like, 20 minutes?
A: Again, that depends. The focus of Tantra, however, is not on the orgasm, but on the increased connection between the participants.
Q1: So, more like 10 minutes?
Q2: What if we don’t want to have sex, but would rather just swim and watch other people having sex?
A: Well, this is a workshop for participating.
Q2: Do I have to participate with my wife?
A: That’s the idea. You’re going to enter each other’s sacred temple. You’re going to forget about everyone else here and lose yourself to the blissful energy of tantric union.
Q3: Can I leave my swimming trunks on?
A: We encourage everyone to step out of their clothes because clothes are like masks for our bodies. Tantra allows us to take off the mask.
Q4: So we can’t wear masks? I thought we could bring masks. [Puts Freddy Kruger mask behind back.]
Q5: Can we yell things?
A: Well, Tantra would have you listen to your intuition, and if that urges you to speak, then speak. Normally, however, Tantra is so intense that the participants do not speak. Or rather, they do not speak out loud.
Q5: So we can’t yell things?
A: I’m not going to say “no,” but you may find that you don’t need to.
Q5: I usually yell things.
A: Well, whatever you yell, the ocean will take.
Q6: Is there anything we can’t do in Tantra or does pretty much anything go?
A: I’m not sure I understand.
Q6: Can my husband and I try to drown one another as our arousal increases?
A: No, I would not suggest any violence. Tantra encourages us to be accepting of our partner.
Q7: This is more of a logistical question: what happens if we’re swept out to sea by the riptide?
A: You should let it take you then swim parallel to the shore. But that reminds me, has everyone signed their waver?
Q8: How long will my orgasm last?
A: People, this is not about orgasms…okay, guys a minute, ladies 45 seconds–if you’re lucky.
