Pleasure Medicine: Redefining Connection & Sensuality for Gay Men Through Conscious Movement
You may have landed here after searching something like ‘ecstatic dance gay London’. Congratulations, you’ve just discovered it…
The dance floor here pulses with a different energy. It's not the frantic beat of a club night, nor the performative rhythm of a typical gay social scene.
This is Pleasure Medicine - a revolutionary new Ecstatic Dance for gay men - an approach to healing, connection, sensuality, pleasure and self-discovery specifically designed for GBTQ men.
A Conscious Dance For Gay Men: Beyond The Usual Spaces
For years, our gay scene has been confined to narrow definitions of connection. Clubs that prioritise sexual tension. Social spaces and apps like Grindr that demand quick, surface-level interactions. Environments that rarely invite true vulnerability or deep emotional exploration and joy.
Pleasure Medicine is an Ecstatic Dance For gay men in London that disrupts these patterns, offering a radical addition to their lives.
Inspired by practices like 5Rhythms, Movement Medicine and Ecstatic Dance - bodies of work that creator Gary Albert has devoted the last 7 years to in his own life - this embodied experience is more than just a workshop. It's a carefully crafted journey of healing, sensuality, intimacy and authentic self-expression. A movement. A revolution.
“When I searched ecstatic dance gay London online, I wasn’t finding what it is that I was looking for, at least not in the exact way I wanted it! So I decided to create it myself” says founder Gary Albert.

Ecstatic Dance For Gay Men: A New Way to Wellness
Find connection, intimacy and community at an Ecstatic Dance for gay men.
Each Pleasure Medicine session is a carefully orchestrated Ecstatic Dance experience for gay men. We begin with a poetic guided meditation, creating a container of safety and intention., reminding us all of the miraculous nature of our bodies.
Embodiment practices follow, inviting participants to awaken their sensory awareness and break through physical and emotional blockages that may cause vulnerability, shyness or awkwardness - we are all in this together.
As the session progresses, intimate group interactions are facilitated in pairs, threes and fours to create opportunities for a more intimate connection experience that take us beyond the hyper-sexualised scenarios we have become used to.
The heart of the experience is a 90-minute Ecstatic Dance for gay men journey. Accompanied by a live DJ set that weaves between classical, ambient, techno, tribal and disco music - with a live flute chill-out that quite literally brings the experience home - participants are invited to move, feel and express themselves.
“It was truly cathartic to dance surrounded by other men like me. I felt free. I felt the gayest I’ve ever felt in my life. I felt beautiful and hot AF. The portal has been opened.”
More Than Just Movement: A Revolution for Gay Men
This brand new Ecstatic Dance for gay men is facilitated by therapist and Somatic Embodied Sexologist in training, Gary Albert. With over a decade of experience, Pleasure Medicine is rooted in deep therapeutic understanding as well as a bedrock of 7 years devoted to practices like 5Rhythms, Movement Medicine and Ecstatic Dance.
It's not about performance or perfection, but about creating a space where gay men can truly be seen, felt and celebrated. A space where we can all let the masks we wear for self-protection gently fall away.
Gary brings a unique blend of depth, light, musical genius and space holding that elicits joy, pleasure, magic, wonder and a sense of celebratory sexuality.
Pleasure Medicine is culmination of his life work. In his recent QX Magazine interview Gary said:
“Pleasure Medicine is the thing I want to see in the world but can’t find – an Ecstatic Dance for gay, bi, queer and trans men to be together in joy, kindness, intimacy and conscious connection where we can let the masks we wear for self-protection to gently melt away”

Why Pleasure Medicine and Ecstatic Dance For Gay Men Matters Now!
In a world that often seeks to take away and judge the queer experience as profane, wrong and dirty, Pleasure Medicine stands as a radical act of self-love, community healing and queer celebration.
It's an invitation to explore touch, movement, intimacy, sensuality and pleasure as a political act.
This isn't just another gay event in London. It's a movement towards deeper connection, towards understanding our bodies as portals of wisdom, towards reimagining what real queer community can feel like.
