Madhurya Balan

Somatic Sexologist, Intimacy Coach
 

Founder of Desire Lab

What exactly do I do?

Pleasure activist, Contentment creator

Artist, Designer, Educator, Facilitator

Agile renegade

I am a Certified Sexological Intimacy Coach from the Institute for Relational Harmony Studies (IRHS), under the ACSB accreditation.

As a practitioner, I conduct 60-90 minute somatic sessions for individuals and couples related to intimacy. 

I also design and conduct workshops and courses in consent, movement and pleasure practice. 

I am as much a researcher as a practitioner as an artist, which has been a core motivation to run the initiative Desire Lab, an exploratory, experimental and expressive space of inquiries around intimacy.​

 

Why did I choose this line of work?
 

For freedom.

For liberation.

For love.

What was I doing before this?

My work has been at the intersections of ecology, conservation, alternative education, creative and art practices, design and community work. 

I was based in Nepal and in Tiruvannamalai from 2014-2020.

From pursuing the question, how do we live in harmony with the land, I am now pursuing the questions in the realms of the relational, how can we choose to live in conscious harmony within ourselves and with each other?
