If you’ve ever practiced nude yoga or spent time in a nudist setting and felt a tingle of arousal, you’re not alone. And more importantly—you’re not wrong. As someone who has taught nude yoga for years and has spent some time in nudism environments, I know firsthand that sexual energy shows up. It’s natural. It’s part of the human experience. But how we relate to that energy makes all the difference.
This post is for men like you. Together, let’s take an honest, unashamed look at what happens when sexual energy rises during nude yoga or in nudism environments, and what you can do about it.
The Body and Arousal: It’s a Natural Reaction
Arousal isn’t always about sex. That may seem like a surprising thing to say, but it’s true. The male body can become aroused from a variety of triggers:
- Warmth or friction
- Stretching and movement
- Deep breathing and increased blood flow
- Emotional release
In nude yoga, we often combine all of these elements. Our bodies are free from clothing, our breath is deep, and our muscles are engaged. So it’s no surprise that a little sexual energy might show up. Especially for men who grew up with shame around nudity, the experience of being naked in a group—even in a calm, respectful setting—can spark something in the nervous system.
And that’s OK.
Sexual Energy vs. Sexual Intent: Let’s Get Clear
One of the biggest misconceptions I hear is that if someone gets turned on during nude yoga, they must be thinking sexual thoughts or wanting to act on them. That’s not always the case.
Sexual energy is just that—energy. It’s life force. It moves through the body like heat or light. You might feel it as tingling, warmth in the groin, or a sudden wave of pleasure. But that doesn’t mean you have to do anything with it.
Think of it like a breeze passing through. You can notice it. Feel it. But you don’t have to chase it.
In both nudism and nude yoga, the intention is not erotic. It’s about presence, openness, and freedom. That said, your body may still respond. And that doesn’t make you any less respectful or mindful.
How to Navigate Arousal in Nude Yoga or Nudist Settings
So what happens when you feel a rise of sexual energy in the middle of a nude yoga class or a nudism event? Here’s what I recommend:
1. Don’t panic. Getting an erection or feeling turned on is normal. It happens.
2. Breathe deeply. Slow, conscious breathing can help regulate your nervous system and gently move the energy.
3. Shift your focus. Bring your awareness to other parts of the body. Your feet on the floor. The stretch in your arms. The rhythm of your breath.
4. Stay connected to your intention. Remember why you’re here: to move, to connect, to be free in your body.
5. Practice acceptance. This isn’t about shame or suppression. It’s about integration. The more you allow yourself to feel without judgment, the more relaxed and natural your practice becomes.
In group settings, erections do happen. Most nude yoga teachers and nudist communities know this. As long as the behavior remains respectful and non-disruptive, it’s accepted as part of the territory.
The Deeper Side of Sexual Energy
Let me share something I’ve learned through years of practicing nude yoga: sexual energy doesn’t have to be a problem. It can be power.
In many Eastern traditions, including Tantra, this energy is seen as sacred. It fuels creativity, joy, intimacy, and connection. It’s not always about sex—it’s about aliveness.
When we approach nudism and nude yoga with this lens, we start to see our arousal not as an obstacle but as an invitation. An invitation to:
- Be more present in our bodies
- Honor the full range of sensation
- Accept ourselves without shame
Moreover, sexual energy often dissolves on its own when we stop resisting it. The more we fear it or hide it, the more power it has over us. But when we welcome it without acting on it, it moves through us and leaves us more grounded.

Nude Yoga and Nudism: Naked, Not Ashamed
Let’s be real. Being a naked man in a room with other naked men brings stuff up. Arousal, insecurity, comparison, desire. But it also brings healing.
Sexual energy is not the enemy. It’s part of the landscape. In nude yoga and nudism, we get to rewrite our relationship with our bodies. We stop hiding. We start feeling. And through that, we grow.
So yes—it’s OK to get turned on. What matters is how you respond. With mindfulness. With compassion. With curiosity.
Stay grounded. Stay naked. Stay human.
