Workshops

Advanced Consent Workshop

Have you ever noticed how hard it is sometimes to be authentic with your yes's and no's? And sometimes you say 'No' because you don't think you can change your mind once you've said 'Yes'? Have you ever said 'yes' so as not to humiliate or make a partner feel small or unwanted. Have you ever gone along with something just to please a partner. What are these processes and how do they get in the way of crafting deeper intimacy. In a culture that requires a degree of mind reading this workshop will pry apart many of the subtler aspects of consent that you may not have addressed yet.

Waking up through playfulness and danger (can be run on both mornings)

A fun and pleasure filled start to the day using movement, engagement, imagination along with body, voice, and creativity. Playing with the edges of play and challenging ourselves to do ridiculous things in a thoroughly safe manner. Leave feeling stretched and comforted, challenged and invigorated.

Communicating about sex

This workshop is for improving how you talk, think, and interact with others around sex, erotic play and intimacy. There are many factors that, at any one time, may lead us to be erotically hot and ready to go, 'meh' and 'if I have to', or 'get the hell away'. These factors are often unclear to us. The reason for this is that none of us have spent very much time looking at sexual communication or had much if any sex education, apart from a rudimentary biology exposition. Most of us know more about almost everything in our lives than we do about sex. And most of us find sex difficult to talk about as well. This workshop opens up pathways to sexual communication so that this fabulous and supposedly important area of life is accessible through the simple art of language and discussion.
