First steps into naturism
Naturism can be discovered at any age, at any point in life. Some are introduced to it in early childhood, while others discover it much later. Age doesn’t matter; the main thing is that the desire comes from you! If you want to start naturism but don’t know how, don’t panic, CHM will guide you in your first steps. After all, there’s a first time for everything, right?
It all starts with a desire...
We’ve all felt the pleasure of being naked, whether on a beach, at home by the pool, or after a shower. That feeling of freedom is delightful, isn’t it? So, why not extend this well-being during a holiday in a suitable place? By sharing this freedom with other people seeking the same sensations, the pleasure is multiplied tenfold.
Starting at a naturist holiday center has the advantage of being surrounded by many people, which will allow you to feel supported and quickly integrated. Welcome to the community!
The first time
The beginning can seem daunting, it’s true… You have to overcome your fears and questions: What will others think of my body? How will I react seeing naked people? How can I enjoy myself feeling others’ eyes on me? So many questions that don’t help you take the plunge. Yet, if there’s one practice where judgment is not allowed, it’s naturism!
Upon arriving at CHM Montalivet naturist campsite, don’t hesitate to mention that it’s your first naturist experience. You’ll immediately feel at ease with our reception team and the kindness of the holidaymakers. Members of our three resident clubs will be happy to guide you in your first steps.
The first time, you’ll probably feel like everyone’s eyes are on you, when quite the opposite is true. After a few minutes, you’ll discover the pleasure of being naked, freed from all constraints and social barriers. Then, you’ll start to feel a deeper connection with nature and its elements. You’ll quickly notice that once you taste this pleasure, you can’t do without it…
Living Naturism
On holiday at CHM Montalivet, you’ll quickly notice that naturism promotes a horizontal view, where appearance gives way to sensations and emotions. You’ll also discover that some naturists only undress when conditions allow, according to individual preference.
For shopping or going to a restaurant, some prefer to wear a sarong. When playing contact sports, nudity can also be set aside. But in a short time, any discomfort naturally lessens and eventually disappears completely.
For teenagers, who can sometimes be shy, it can be difficult to jump in. At CHM, they feel reassured and can take their time to understand naturism and undress when they feel ready. Everyone at their own pace; the main thing is to discover the joy of naturism!
Le Chalet Lecocq
Europa 10 bis is the historic meeting point at CHM: named after the founders of the naturist movement and the CHM, come (re)discover this place and the history of naturism. Visit the chalet, delve into the archives and collector’s items since the opening of this emblematic site.
