Soft Medicine Sanctuary, Sebastopol
(Space is limited & sells out fast)
Join Lera Mikhailova—a board-certified OB/GYN clinician, functional medicine specialist, & dancer—in a one-of-a-kind workshop that blends the worlds of science & sensuality.
what is biology & bass?
Biology & Bass is where women’s health, neuroscience, movement, & pleasure activation finally meet—rewiring the disconnection modern life has created—between your symptoms and your power, your rhythm and your reality.
For too long, these realms have been kept apart—leaving us confused by our symptoms, unsure of our needs, and disconnected from the truth that body literacy and deep pleasure are not luxuries, but birthrights. This is not a fitness class, a hormone lecture, or a dance party—this is body reclamation at the cellular level.
Lera has practiced on both sides of the medical system—conventional and holistic. This workshop is what she wishes every woman knew about her body.
Biology & Bass is where functional medicine and feminine embodiment converge—bringing together the precision of science with the pulse of sensuality.
You'll explore the most commonly missed foundations of hormone health and physiological body systems, while integrating tools and movement that support hormone balance, nervous system regulation, pleasure activation, and a deeper sense of presence and power in your body.
Each session explores a new theme, blending root cause education with sensual, science-backed practices to help you understand your body, your symptoms, and your untapped pleasure potential—bringing you deeper into your biology, your rhythms, and your vitality.
