Love Lounge @Button Factory, Auckland

Tantric Ways of Connecting

A gentle space to explore conscious connection and learn authentic Tantra.
Come home to your body, your boundaries, and your curiosity.
Experience simple practices you can bring into everyday life and relationships.

Why Love Lounge?

• Learn and deepen foundational tantric practices
• Explore closeness, sensation, and awareness in a safer way
• Practice conscious connection that supports presence in daily life

What the Evening Looks Like

We open with an introduction to the Five Zones, grounding practices, and embodied consent.
From there, you are invited into free exploration-moving between zones in your own time.

The Five Zones

• Massage & conscious touch
• Meditation alone & together
• Tea & oracle cards – conscious communication
• Sensual connection & cuddles
• Dancing & free movement

Everything is optional.
You move at your pace.
Presence, boundaries, and choice guide the evening.

What Love Lounge Is Not

Not a sex party or a place to hook up or engage in fast dating culture
Not a space for genital stimulation or strong sexual connection, including full nudity
Not a container for penetration of any kind
• Not about performing or pushing limits.

This temple is a space of presence, slowness, curiosity, and mindful connection-not sexual escalation.

Boundaries & Rules

• No sex
• No genital touch
• Underwear remains on
• No fluid exchange
• Consent and boundary practices are essential
• This is a sober event

If boundaries are not respected, we may ask participants to leave, with care for the group.

Entry, Timing & Participation

Start time is 6.30pm sharp - doors close afterwards.
To protect the container, no late entry is possible.

We want to ensure that the group aligns with the intention of the space.
After purchasing a ticket, you will receive a link to a short intake form in your confirmation email.
Access to the temple requires completing this form.

If we feel the alignment is not there, we reserve the right to refund your ticket.

Please arrive on time and sober, and plan to stay until the end (unless you really need to leave).

While this space cannot offer intensive 1:1 support, facilitators offer private aftercare sessions.

A Few Collective Boundaries

• Non-penetrative space - underwear stays on
• No phones or recording content
• Respect your own pace and others’ boundaries
