November 2012 – TV3
In a very entertaining and positive TV show about sex – “69 saker du vill veta om sex” (69 things you want to know about sex) – Calle teaches the main character different exercises to get better orgasms, stronger presence and more pleasure. We did eyegazing, pevic movements, breathing and appreciation games. Lots of fun, and highly appreciated.
