Body Electric was founded in San Francisco, California in 1984 by Dr. Joseph Kramer in response to the emotional trauma, social dislocation, and shame experienced by gay men during the first years of the AIDS crisis.
Dr. Joseph Kramer combined ancient wisdom of Tantra and Taoist sexual cultivation with insights of western sexology, psychology and neurobiology to create the style of Taoist Erotic Massage taught in Body Electric workshops.
Into the present day, Body Electric continues to evolve, offering a range of experiences to expand the emotional and erotic development of men.
