FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

Don't most people already know how to kiss?  Actually no, not with much finesse, or depth, or intimacy, or passion. Most people have not learned anything more than general mouth mashing.

We assume that kissing is something that’s picked up along the way, something that just comes naturally. In fact that’s like asking, "Don't most people know how to get a basketball into the hoop?" Or, "Don't most people know how to cook dinner?" Well sure, to some degree. The mashing of lips, dunking of balls, and the baking of bread can all be done with more or less skill, grace, finesse, presence, passion, and art. Think of the most sweetly finessed b-balls, or that perfectly timed full-on, luscious dinner, now that’s an art show! How much training does it take to be able to do that? Quite a bit, actually.

Practicing the energy sharing techniques of tantra takes the Art of Kissing from the mediocre and merely repetitious into moments of exquisite communion. Loving is an art form rarely studied, yet is more valuable than gold. Art conjured out of energetic connection filled with heart, heat and intimacy.


Who comes to Kissing School?  Kissing School is attended by sensitive and curious women and men of all ages, most often mid twenties to mid sixties.  They may have been married for 20 years, or are just now engaged, on their 3rd date or are simply friends. These are people who feel they’d like to awaken their inner lover, improve their kissing skills, learn about tantric and taoist energy practices. Many are wanting to explore the spiritual within sexuality, or learn to open and access their buried passion. Couples frequently want to "lively up" their relationship by going deeper with each other, communicate about their desires, remember how to generate the electricity they once had, or heal from dysfunctionality in their relationship.

Where is Kissing School held?  Kissing School! is held in a historic building in Seattle. The meeting room is spacious, well lit and comfortable. Parking is free and there are a number of restaurants near by for your dining pleasures.  If you are requesting a private session Kissing School, they are held at Cherie's office in Madison Valley in Seattle, WA.

Will Kissing School ever be presented in my city? It certainly can!  Contact us if you have a group of 10 or more couples that are ready to attend Kissing School! in your area.  Fees are negotiable. 

What do I wear?  Comfortable clothes. You will be moving around throughout the day, shifting into different positions. Layers are useful for optimizing your body temperature.

What do I bring?  You and your partner will be creating a cozy "love nest" on the floor and will be requested to bring materials for this. Upon registering you will be mailed a list of items to bring as well as other pertinent information. If you are traveling by plane, we do have "nesting" materials available for rent.  The cost is $30.00.  Since quantities are limited, this is offered on a first come, first paid, first served basis.

Can I bring someone who is just a friendThis is a wonderful thing to do. Find a friend who’d like to explore the sweetness and joy of communion with you and bring them along to play. It will not be forgotten.

Are the classes hetero or same gendered?  All classes are open to couples of all sexual orientations.

Do singles attend?  Single?  You are welcome to come to any of the the Kissing School! classes by inviting someone you enjoy to come and share this luscious lips-on learning with you. They'll never forget you and the gift you shared. For this opportunity you will sign up as a couple and remain together for the day. For singles without partners who prefer a private session we do have approved Kissing School surrogates, please request a private session and mention you'll need a surrogate.  .

What about camera's and the press/media visiting class?  Kissing School has frequent requests from the media to attend and interview and film parts of the classes. You do not have to participate in these interviews or filming. If you choose to participate, you will sign a release from the selected media group that is in attendance, if you do not sign the release, you will not be filmed or interviewed.  If you have questions concerning this, please feel free to email Cherie and she can let you know if anyone is scheduled to be present at your class date or let her know any concerns or thoughts you might have.
