Who We Are
The history of intimacy work as a practice is relatively new, IPEC is proud to be making a step in that story. We responded to the challenges of the entertainment industry by creating a modular-based syllabus for intimacy work that fulfilled SAG/AFTRA accreditation standards while still reflecting our own professional standards. Founder, Rachel Flesher, felt the calling to take what they were already doing in the learning space, but wanted a collective approach. Jyreika Guest & Charlie Baker came in to help build the syllabus that they felt build good foundations.
​
Starting in 2022, the team became Rachel Flesher, Jyreika Guest, Charlie Baker, & Jessica Bennett to put forward the foundational steps to make this collective a reality. We cannot wait to share with you our full team of leaders, instructors, & associates.
Our journey has been one of learning, growth, and dedication. We are thrilled to offer a program that prepares intimacy professionals for real-world experiences and gives them the tools they need to succeed.
