• How to Be a Top Presenter
  In this interactive and engaging workshop, you will learn how to improve your teaching, enhance learning outcomes, increase participant satisfaction, and create dynamic exercises. Flexible and adaptable to any topic or audience, this workshop can be designed to fit a singe evening, a series of evenings, or a full-day training.
• Adult Sexuality Education
  Learn how to applying the basic principles of adult learning to sexuality topics.
• Sex & Shame
  This workshop offers the opportunity to shed some light on how to work with both sexuality and shame in order to move towards enhanced well-being and deeper pleasure.
• Sex-Positivity
  The legacy of sex-negativity, the myth of the normal, and institutionalized sexual shame have left deep marks upon society. Moving towards a sex-positive perspective can help us find the balance between repression and rebellion in order to discover our individual sexual well-being. This topic can be approached from a number of perspectives, including sexual health, communication, sexual authenticity, gender diversity, and social oppression.
• BDSM
  With an understanding of how BDSM works and how people can explore it in ways that support their well-being, we can begin to develop the discernment necessary to distinguish between BDSM and harm. This is an essential skill for clinicians, educators, and others who work with sexuality issues.
• Polyamory
  Just as monogamy is not a guarantee of happiness, other relationship structures are not necessarily a sign of failing marriages, lack of commitment, or dysfunction. Millions of people engage in polyamory, polyfidelity, open relationships, swinging, non-monogamy and other ways of creating connection. Exploring what prompts people to explore these different relationship models and understanding the strategies that help make them successful, can help us support those that seek to create structures that suit them.
• The Physiology of Pleasure
  This interactive workshop explores the sexual organs and explains how they function from a pleasure perspective. There are many similarities that transcend gender, as well as some obvious (and not so obvious) differences.
• Act Like a Man: Male Gender Socialization
  Despite the increasing dialogue about gender roles in modern society, there is little understanding of how masculinity is defined, taught, and enforced. The more we explore these dynamics, the easier it becomes to address them, find new ways of moving through the world, and bring a sense of both compassion and accountability to our lives. This workshop can be adapted to meet the clinical needs of non-profit service providers and professionals.
• Understanding Sexual Practices and Communities: A Workshop for Clinicians
  Working with clients’ sexuality concerns can be challenging when they want to talk about desires, fantasies and practices that you may be unfamiliar with. This workshop introduces a wide range of practices and communities in a balanced, accurate, and non-judgmental manner.

In addition to these classes, Charlie also teaches about a wide range of sexual practices including sex toys, G-spot play, prostate play, anal sex, and safer sex practices.
