About the event

🌈 Join us for The Kindling, a unique sauna dating experience crafted exclusively for queer men! In a world dominated by apps and surface-level interactions, we’re bringing back authentic connection in its most basic form: a meaningful, analog experience that fosters genuine relationships.

What’s in store for you?
💨 Guided breathwork to ground and center yourself
🔥 Invigorating sauna with aromatic elements designed to relieve tension
🧊 Ice bath speed dating for mindful introductions
💭 Intentional practices to meet others authentically
🧘‍♂️ A soothing closing meditation to reflect on the evening
📵 Phone-free zone for genuine connections

Your hosts for the evening:
✨ Brian Lamy, a passionate breathwork facilitator and therapist dedicated to fostering deeper connections among queer men.
✨ Othership Guides will lead breathwork, ice baths, and connection activities throughout the night.

Is this for you?
✅ You’re single and eager for a fresh way to connect
✅ Fed up with endless app scrolling and small talk
✅ Excited to meet other queer men in real life
✅ Open to self-discovery and learning about others
✅ A touch nervous but ready to dive in

Is this not for you?
❌ Seeking a night of drinking or substance use
❌ Prefer staying on the surface and avoiding deep conversation
❌ Not willing to participate actively in the sauna and discussions
❌ Can’t part with your phone for a couple of hours
❌ Here only to swipe in person

What to bring:
🩳 Just your bathing suit and an open mind—leave the rest to us!
