If you had sex education in high school, chances are you remember it as being little more than weird and uncomfortable. After all, who wants to sit and watch the gym teacher put a 
condom on a banana with a straight face? In school, these classes are meant to inform young people about the perils of sex as a way to help discourage teenage pregnancy. As adults, we tend to think we’ve learned all there is to learn and these classes are just for kids. But this list of saucy classes offered throughout the country prove that there are plenty of new tricks to learn and can help many people get in touch with what they really want.
Getting Kinky and Finding More Than One Orgasm
The Frisky Boutique in North Carolina began offering classes back in 2005 and today they feature a regular roster of options for people who want to improve their sexual style. In response to the 50 Shades of Grey popularity, they now offer a class called 50 Shades of Play: Unlocking the Erotic Magic of Grey & Steele which helps people learn more about light BDSM in a safe and comfortable setting in order for them to see if it’s something that turns them on in reality as much as it does their fantasies. They also offer a class called Everything Orgasm which aims to help both women and men become multi-orgasmic and to learn about the different varieties of orgasm… and you thought there was only one!
The Hottest Book Club Ever
San Francisco offers a number of different workshops, events and classes that are sexually charged but the book club offered through the Centre for Sex and Culture may be one of the most interesting. The group meets to read, listen and discuss erotica written by its members as well as published books. The centre also features a host of different classes including instructions on pole dancing, open discussions for couples into dominance and submission, erotic dancing and masturbation.
A Weekend for Sex
HAI Global takes workshops to the next level by offering weekend retreats that focus on erotic play and teaching couples how to connect both spiritually and physically. While the aim is pretty lofty, that doesn’t mean it’s all serious business. On the contrary, the focus of their retreats is to help couples reconnect in a happy and playful way which can then lead to tackling the more serious issues that may have been eroding their sexual happiness.
The 21st Century Option
Creative Sexuality offers the perfect solution for people in today’s busy and connected world – online sex classes. They offer recorded and pre-programmed classes as well as live, interactive webinars so there’s something for everyone, even those who might feel a bit shy about joining a workshop in person. Class options truly run the gamut thanks to their impressive roster of diverse educators. People can choose from classes like Entrancing! Beginning Erotic Hypnosis, Getting the Sex You Want, BDSM and “Kinky” Sex: Fact and Fiction, Clinical Ecosexology – An Introduction, Sex and Sensory Dysfunction and even a Virtual Fetish Film Festival.
