FESTISEX

FESTISEX is a five-day festival in the heart of Montseny at Masia Can Gensana, dedicated to pleasure, play and eroticism, where hearts and minds are opened in an atmosphere of exploration and celebration.
It offers a wide range of activities including workshops led by experts in various fields related to pleasure and sexuality. It is a playful space where the body is as welcome as the mind. Here, artistic expression, dance, music and performance intertwine, turning each movement into a possibility of opening up to delight and inviting participants to explore new dimensions of their own sexuality.
PROGRAMME
Welcome and Presentation
A welcoming circle where, in addition to the joy of the first meeting and getting to know each other, important issues for the care and coexistence of these five days will be framed as the essence of Festisex.
Festisex Team
Limits and Consent
We open the festival with a workshop that will lay the foundations for the experience of these five days. The more we allow ourselves to listen and express our limits clearly, the more we can respect the limits of others and enjoy the encounter.
Through the body, play and embodied listening, we will explore how real and free consent is born. An invitation to inhabit "yes" and "no" with clarity, presence and care for a conscious Festisex.

Erotiz/Art
The erotics of contact
What happens when desire is not discharged, but inhabited?
In this workshop we will explore the art of pre-contact: that space charged with tension, fantasy and pleasure where the erotic awakens without touching. Through the body, breathing and movement, we will open the doors to a more personal, more alive, freer and authentic desire.

Untamed Beauty
When the body is liberated, the soul dances.
This proposal is a festive baptism of the body: a celebration of its sacredness, a living and joyful entrance to the temple we inhabit. A ritual of opening to the joy of Festisex, to honour the body for what it is: a sensitive compass that guides us, a vehicle of the soul and a channel of feeling.
Inside, the body holds a brilliant secret: our sexual system. A parallel dimension, luminous and profound, that is activated when we open ourselves to the vital force that inhabits us. This journey is an invitation to awaken this wild and sacred part, to get in touch with its free and untamed beauty.
Irene Forza
Massage and Sensuality Ritual
Meditative dance.
A breeze from ancient India arrives at Festisex. Inspired by the tradition of Kashmiri massage - a jewel of the original tantra - we bring you this delicate and profound proposal: an experience that goes beyond massage, a sensory, sensual and meditative journey. Focused on the awakening of body awareness, energy and full presence. A silent dance, a meditation in movement, where pleasure merges with beauty through a fluid body language and the richness of a deep connection.
Anadi and Jose Manuel Rey Martín
Your Inner Lover
To awaken the lover that lives inside you. The one who knows how to seduce you with a look, provoke you with a word, touch you without touching you. It is a workshop to reconnect with play, mystery, fantasy and self-excitement as a way to pleasure, self-love and sexual freedom.
Sonia Morillo
Alchemy of Leather with Mud and Colour
Body painting is at the origin of all cultures. We humans have painted our skin to give us courage, to attract love or to frighten away fears, to belong and to distinguish ourselves, to mourn or to celebrate festivals. Our body is a wonderful vehicle and deserves to be celebrated. There are no strict rules here. Let any worry or shame dissolve with every movement.
Mario Sánchez Olivera
Introduction to Shibari and BDSM
A way to learn other alternatives of connection, games and erotic sensory exploration using the tools provided by Shibari and BDSM.
Chelo Moreno (Curveche)
Kin Qi Project Experience
Desire and pleasure in the service of joy.
An invitation to turn on the body, let go of shame and play with pleasure as a path.
Breathing, dance, gaze and massage to activate the sensual energy without haste and without guilt.
We explore the art of touching with presence, with intention and enjoyment with magic. Come with your desire, your "yes" and your limits. Here the body is a living landscape... and also mischief.
Fabiana Charrua
From Ego to Ecstasy
Egoic love is need disguised as love. Ecstasy, unlimited love, presence without demand. In this workshop we will explore through the body the path that can lead us from one to the other.
Festisex Team
Birthing your ``Sexy Self``.
Having transited from ego to ecstasy, we will dare to express our authentic sensuality, as an inner birth into the pleasure of being.
Festisex Team
Festi-Love
We invite you to a space of intimacy and care invoking Eros, the Greek god of desire and love. A journey through the senses, to give space to your way of living sexuality, opening it to tenderness, curiosity, enjoyment and love.
Festisex Team
Closing Ritual
A ritual where we will gather the experience of these days. A space of collective presence to integrate experiences, to be grateful for links and to open up to the surprise of closures and new beginnings.
