About Me
My purpose is to awaken men's passion for touch, pleasure & connection. I create safe space for men to move past inhibitions & explore greater pleasure with intimacy.
I embody many roles
sacred intimate
masseur
erotic bodyworker
tantric teacher
couples sex & intimacy coach
facilitator
modern day shaman
Whatever role that I assume,
my viewpoint is the same.
Source energy is erotic energy
it is creative energy
a healing energy
a loving energy
We all have our own expression of that energy.
It is unique to each of us.
We can use in creative ways.
It has the power to heal & transform our lives.
It gives life the greatest meaning & purpose.
Somehow, we have lost sight of the meaning of life.
We are here to support each other in rediscovering the importance of pleasure & connection.
As we shed our constraints
we play in pleasure.
We experience our commonality.
We recognize we are all one.
Worthy of pleasure.
Worthy of love.
-----------------
Pleasure is our birthright.
Enjoyment is our aim.
Bliss is our true reality.
Essentially, it is up to us, each & every one of us,
to cultivate & enjoy pleasure in each moment.
One experience at a time.

Testimonials
After working with Austino, I am centered, motivated, and renewed for the long haul. I have grown so much in his care and am beginning to expand my personal and sexual depth, as a gay man. I was really frightened when I began working with him, and now I feel totally safe and at ease with myself.

I want to thank you for taking me through this process. What I went in thinking I would come out with is not what I came out with at all. What surfaced, along the way, were some very deep feelings and emotions that had been pushed aside, namely grief: grief due to loss and grief due to realities of life that I really have no control over. Life is about letting go, so as to be free. These sessions, while erotic, unleashed a lot of stress and anxiety. The erotic nature of this work was fun for sure; but it was also very therapeutic, in the sense that it allowed a deep, inner sense of release, resulting in a sense of peace and relaxation.

My fiancé and I just had an amazing transformative session with Austino. He is intuitive, kind, and sensual and really helped us connect—emotionally and sensually—at a higher level. Three hours flew by and left us thinking "Wow!" and feeling so appreciative of the time we got to spend with him. I would encourage anyone to reach out to him to explore possibilities.

I am continuing to process an experience that seemed to catapult me beyond time and space – really beyond any descriptive words: peaceful/exciting; laughter and happiness; sensual and erotic; relaxing/stimulating; arousing/calming. Austino is an unparalleled master with his craft. He is the consummate Tantric Guide who possesses a Generosity of Spirit, that makes the experience unique to the individual. The ambiance is unlike anything previously experienced: the lighting, the music, the themes – everything contributed to a sacred/sexual intimacy. He impacted me on every level, from physical to spiritual, emotional to ethical. I'm already looking forward to the next experience. Thank You!

I have to say, it was a mind-boggling experience – it took a while to compute. I haven't felt those kinds of feelings, and I'm trying to still decide what they were. I want to say “love," but that seems too strong of a word (but not really). Whatever it was, it was beautiful. Thank you for the life changing experience.

Thanks for this wonderful journey and for helping me explore a world that was previously unknown and frightening. I have been reflecting on the whole process; and with that reflection has come a greater sense of awe, pleasure, and excitement about ecstasy, sex and my own sexuality. The sense of merging with another is a beautiful thing; and entering it through pleasure and touch is nearly surreal. Again, thank you for helping me begin to uncover the mystery that I've built around intimate relationships.
