TESTIMONIALS
We had Yarit Dor who was amazing. She was good at making situations really light and funny so you felt comfortable being vulnerable... And then, during the orgy scene in episode three, they said it would be easier if we all gave ourselves different names, instead of using our real ones. That’s good because you can separate the scene from reality, and you would “tap in and tap out” through a high-five as you go in, and another as you go out and back into yourself."

I'd never worked with [an intimacy co-ordinator] before (Enric Ortuno), and woah it’s the best thing ever. All my experiences of doing sex scenes before have been sans intimacy coordinator, and I can’t believe how much better it is. It just creates a completely safe environment. You feel fully protected, and like you can say no to anything… "

Thank you Yarit for creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for us to work in. You were my anchor during a very demanding show and I'll never forget how you supported me in realising the story I wanted to achieve.

Undertaking this training in Intimacy Coordination with Moving Body Arts has changed my life. Not only has it given me the opportunity to pursue a valuable and fulfilling role which is complimentary to other services I can offer the creative arts, but it has encouraged me to lean in to, and live my authenticity, with renewed confidence.
