“Grant”(Howard Grant) -“Sacred Touch”
Grant has facilitated nurturing touch and tantra workshops for the Billy Club, Discovery Community, the SF Healing Circle, Light Touch Retreats, California Men's Gatherings, and Kalani Hanua's Gay Spirit. He brings to each session an ecclectic mix of touch exercises gleaned from bodyworkers, sex healers, and queer shamans. Grant is a fan of 'touch from the heart', strives to live in the moment, and emulates the poet James Broughton:“Be champions of hug, be warriors of kiss". Here's a link to Grant's paintings and sculptures that were inspired by his close observation of the male form from years of bodywork and facilitation...hgrantart.weebly.com
