Online dating and hook-up apps are often the go-to solution when you need a Mr-Right-Now, but if you’re craving something more or something different to a transactional encounter, it’s often difficult to know where to start.
For the past two years, I’ve been running small group events for men in London – everything from Book Club to Massage Exchange and Cooking events. Initially, I wasn’t sure if the events I was offering would be of interest to anyone, but momentum has gradually built, and we now have a full programme with most events fully subscribed. It’s given me confidence that men are looking for low-stakes opportunities to connect with other men.
We’re in the process of planning the schedule of Naked Men Talking events for 2027. As well as continuing the events that have proved popular over the past two years, we’re also going to trial something new – an Intimacy Immersion.
What is an Intimacy Immersion?
Naked Men Talking’s intimacy immersion will be a curated group of 8-12 men coming together in London for a weekend programme of activities that creates opportunities to explore intimacy with yourself and others.
This is not talk therapy. This is doing the work – getting comfortable in your body and connecting with the communal sexual energy available to us when men get together.
This will be a drug-free and alcohol-free event, so ideal if you’re navigating sober intimacy but also perfect if you’re just happy to enjoy a weekend that doesn’t revolve around drinking.
What sort of guys will be taking part in the Intimacy Immersion?
This will be a curated event. The Naked Men Talking team will personally review each potential attendee with the intention of bringing together a group of men who will be in the same headspace and likely to vibe together with a compatible communal sexual energy.
There’s no criteria that you’re being assessed against; we’re just trying to match you up with the kind of guys that you tell us that you’re looking to connect with.
How do I know if the Intimacy Immersion is what I’m looking for?
Small group events such as naked yoga or mindfulness sessions are a great starting point but generally only run for a couple of hours, so can sometimes feel a bit limited.
An immersion amplifies all the benefits of those small group sessions because you’re spending the entire weekend with the same group of men – a group of men curated to align with what you’re looking for in terms of connection.
There’s no pressure to perform or project a version of yourself that you think people want to see – just turn up, be present and engaged, and see where that takes you.
