Relating and loving skills for couples and individuals

About Us

We are Priya and Bob Tourkow. We believe that in this fast, technology-orientated world, people forget how to have deep, connected loving relationships. We are passionate about helping them gain the skills to bring more love, intimacy, sexuality...and fun into their lives.

How do I start talking about INTIMACY?

(Reprint from Intimacy Works! newsletter. Signup for the newsletter.)

I often get calls from men who are looking for “more pleasure, more enjoyable sex, something more” in their relationships. They might have heard a bit about the ancient art of Tantra, and think, “It’s all about having better sex.” They wonder if that’s what they need. Sometimes they think they have a problem that’s all their fault, and has nothing to do with their partner: “I’m not relaxed enough.” “I climax too quickly.” “I can’t perform well.”

My first question to them is always, “Have you and your partner talked about this?” The answer is usually, “No, we don’t talk about intimacy or sexuality.” Read More

Why do I post things here? (Are you curious?)

Sometimes when I have thoughts and make little notes (that I then tend to lose) about things I think I might want to post here, I wonder: “Why do I want to post this to our blog?” So I decided I want to tell you why I want write things here. Read More

I don’t have to do it alone! (Really?)

This post is prompted from my first experience attending a “networking” group. But, it’s not actually about “networking”. I learned - actually “remembered” - something fascinating about me, and that remembrance might be of help to you. Read More

We’re Mostly Alike! (Even when we seem different.)

I’m a bit late in posting this. I said I would post something after our “Be My Valentine” workshop, but I’m more than a week late. Sorry!One of the things that I always experience when Priyatama and I lead a workshop, is how “teaching” to others actually provides important reminders to me about myself and my relationship with Priya. This post is about one of those “reminders”. Read More

Post-Valentines Weekend glow.

Well, we are back from leading our “Be My Valentine” weekend retreat/workshop, and I am filled with a great feeling of love and connection. We had a great group of people at our favorite venue, Buckland Hall in Wales. As usuallu happens, I learn things from leading workshops. I’d love you to read more to see if what I learned could be helpful to you and your relationships. Read More

“Letting Go” - and Trusting

Priyatama and I are “letting go” of something that has been very big in our lives, (in fact it brought us together) and it isn’t easy.

For the past four years, we have been the UK “producers” of a series of USA-based workshops from the “Human Awareness Institute” (”HAI”) called the “Love, Intimacy and Sexuality” workshops. Priya has actually been producing them for almost nine years (before I joined her in England) and I have been deeply involved with them for almost 20 years, mostly in the USA. (I am an American, she is British.)

While we continue to love and support them, we have made a decision to step down from the role of “producing” them. (The workshops will continue in the UK, but produced by others.) Both the decision and the process of stepping down have been quite difficult, and in the “letting go” both of us are learning and growing. I would like to share with you my experience of “letting go”, the “trust” that has taken, and the learning I am gaining from it. Read More
