Cuddle Sanctuary is a three-hour event. It begins with a short workshop and finishes with a long stretch of relaxing hang-out time.  The star of the show is safe, consensual touch.

Cuddle Sanctuary is a Rated G event – so it doesn’t include sexual touch. The kinds of touch that are welcome include hugging, holding, spooning, caressing (the face, back or arms), foot rubs, shoulder massages – there’s plenty of options!

Wear comfortable clothes when you arrive or change once you get to the venue. You can even change into pajamas if you want to!

The workshop is a fun, interactive way to go over the guidelines of Cuddle Sanctuary. It’s also a great way to get to know everyone in the room.

My name is Jean Franzblau – I’m the facilitator of Cuddle Sanctuary. For years I kept Googling the words “cuddle” and “Los Angeles” looking for an event like this. I’m honored to be able to offer Cuddle Sanctuary to the community every month.

Cuddle Sanctuary was inspired by Cuddle Party which was co-created by Reid Mihalko and Marcia Baczynski. The concept has caught on across the world.

Cuddle Sanctuary is especially welcoming to newcomers. If you’ve never attended an event like this, come check it out! And if you live far from Los Angeles, see if there are other cuddle events near you. If not, trust me, it’s totally worth the trip to come to Cuddle Sanctuary.

To stay in touch, join our Meetup and “like” us on Facebook.

That’s it for now. Happy cuddling!
