„My kink is connection. If you really see the other, if you are truly seen by the other – see means: really mean – there is a quantum leap in feeling, desire, lust and love.

And all that is so much greater than the perfect ass or the most beautiful eyes. It takes you away from ‘I want’ to a moment together, a magical dance, even if it’s only for one night.“

„I am fascinated by the huge, hidden potentials in us and the ways to set them free. My approach is playful – with ease, humor, empathy and love. Love for myself and people with all their facets.

My motto: I have got a thousand faces and all of them are true. (Henry Miller)“

Schwelle vienna is my home, my creative playground and a place where I am welcome as a woman with all my knowledge, my strength and my passion and (sexual) energy.

At Schwelle vienna I always provide musical entertainment at the parties and lead various workshops, for example: Ecstatic Dance, Ritual Posture and Ecstatic Trance ® and Lovemore Playground etc….

I believe that “good” sex, which I see as an expression of our potential and being, is important, necessary and extremely healthy.

It is primarily about the relationship with yourself, which is reflected in the experience with others. Knowing your needs a yes and also being able to say no.

Many conditioning and beliefs have to be let go and the threshold supports each and every one of them and is a very carefully managed place and leaves a lot of space to experiment.

In my workshops I work intensively with the body, music and dance, the state of consciousness trance and ecstasy, your life energy, sexual energy, humor, letting go of conventions and beliefs, gratitude and joy. And self-love. And celebrating life and being.

We are here to have fun and to experience and learn.

I originally come from the creative industry, worked as a presenter for television and radio for a long time and then lived for many years in Germany, America and England. Traveling is my passion, which I still pursue.

At the moment I’m working parallel to my work on the threshold as a djane and musician.

Reiki Teacher and TCM practitioner, event organizer, chairman of the Association for Social Openness and Loving Society.

Spending his teenage years with dealing and healing his past. He worked for years in psychological self therapy and systemic family therapy.

In his twenties he opened himself up, studied and practiced alternative medicine such as Reiki, Kinesiology, Acupressure, The Bars and more.

Three years ago he started the project S.O.U.L. – Symbiosis Of United Love which became an association for the promotion of social openness and loving society.

His heart and energy is focused on the growth of this expanding and love caring network.

By leaving principles like respect, consent, kindness and openness the members create and enjoy a safe place for diversity.

Reinhard Gaida is the founder and senior partner of Schwelle Vienna,
Vienna’s first sex-positive space which he established in 2012.

Reinhard is a certified coach, counselor and trainer and is responsible for taking all necessary measures and precautions for maintaining a mindful and nurturing environment for all Schwelle venues.

The Schwelle Conference and Schwelle Festival promote and enforce the concept of mutual acceptance and respectful interaction. All participants are given the opportunity to develop in a safe and inclusive space and to encounter consensual new experiences in all kinds of directions.

“My goal is to create safe places and discourses for a strong open-minded community.

I emphasize on providing support to everyone who wants to live ethical non-monogamous relationships with or without a sex-positive lifestyle. Moreover with our events we strongly continue the public discourse on polyamory and sex positivism”.
