Like the G-spot, Amora, London's Academy of Sex and Relationships, is easy to miss - a discrete doorway leading off Leicester Square. Walk down the long, rose-tinted staircase and it's more chillout room than classroom - and that's a good thing (unless you've got a thing for school uniforms).
First off, you meet the 3D avatar of Amora herself – part porn star, part fairy. And the scene is set. It's pink, it's breathy, it's knowing and it's on a mission to make the world a sexier place. Let the anticipation begin...
The experienceSeven "erogenous" zones, plenty of audio, visual and interactive stimulation and a unique journey through the land of sex, that's Amora. To get you going, it starts gently. Zone 1: 'Love and Desire' explores the basics of flirting and body language.
Fiddle around with some of the amusing interactive toys - you can create the body of your perfect partner on a touch screen - and you'll find yourself getting nicely warmed up. After that, this interactive sexual attraction is a free for all of kissing, foreplay, masturbation and orgasms. Whatever your sexual preference, be it spiritual, casual, meaningful, oral or unusual, you can touch, watch and learn more about it here.
Work it baby
Not content with giving you toys, words and moving pictures to tingle with, Amora lays on AmorExlore, a delicious programme of workshops on all things sexual. Graduate from the Academy with improved oral skills or a burlesque striptease routine and your weekend away will be unlike any other. You'll also get plenty of mental lubrication from the Amora guides, who are sexperts in their own right. No question is too rude, so don't be shy. They aren't.
If you can't get a human, audio guides - known as Whispers - are also available. Alternatively, the writing's literally on the wall with quotes and advice from sex experts, psychologists, relationship gurus and doctors - Amora's advisory board.
A wall full of genitals is always going to impress. The Sexplorium's display of plaster-cast privates allows a compare and contrast opportunity that you just don't get outside of an orgy. Only one of the 84 isn't real. And it's not the one you think.
Ever had an orgasm and thought, "Hmm, I wonder what all that was about..."? The "Amorgasm Orgasm Tunnel" explains. Find out what your body does before, during and after and then watch the evidence: two video screens showing the faces of men and women as they climax. And they're all Australian's apparently.
Taking it home
While it doesn't have the range of Harmony or Ann Summers, Amora's Boutique provides enough ingenious products to keep you and yours happily occupied, including vibrators, body products and clothing. This sort of visual aid is always useful, particularly if you stop off in the Aphrodisiac Lounge for cocktails. A couple of those and you're likely to forget everything you've learnt - unless you keep talking. Which is really what it's all about.
The big takeaway from Amora is just how uniquely personal sex always is. While the special effects may not blow your mind, the subject matter can. So take your lover by the hand and make it a weekend well spent...
