SUMMARY:ONLINE: Hoe With Purpose: Erotic Strategy for the Emotionally Unavailable & Sensually Aware with Sarai
DESCRIPTION:You’re not chaotic. You just don’t want what everyone assumes you want and nobody’s teaching you how to build the erotic life you’re actually after. \nThe entire world is set up to push you toward romance: the apps\, the communities\, the conversations\, the expectations. If you’re aromantic\, done with situationships\, or just clear that you want pleasure without the relationship\, there’s almost no framework built for you. So you improvise. And improvising leads to drama\, confusion\, and connections that cost more than they were worth. \nThis class is for aromantic folks\, casual players\, and intentional pleasure-seekers who want a system for their erotic life\, not just vibes. \nIN THIS CLASS YOU WILL: \n• Name and understand amatonormativity; the cultural pressure to make romance the goal\, and why opting out is a design choice\, not a flaw\n• Learn how to reframe casual sex as ethical and strategic\, not careless\n• Use the Return on Intimacy framework to decide where your erotic energy is actually worth spending\n• Build and audit a rotation that stays clean of entanglement and drama\n• Practice scripts for navigating casual kink conversations with clarity and confidence\n• Get tools for handling ghosting\, rejection\, and NRE without losing your footing \nAn intentional erotic life is possible. This class shows you how to build one. \nPRESENTER: \nSarai311 (any/all) is a BIPOC kink educator\, poet\, and event organizer with a decade of experience across classroom and community learning spaces. She brings eight years of formal teaching and three years of active kink engagement into her work\, blending curriculum design\, emotionally grounded facilitation\, and embodied pedagogy. A doctoral candidate\, her research on identity development and culturally relevant pedagogy directly informs her kink education practice. \nWithin the kink community\, she has served as a Dungeon Monitor\, demo bottom\, and board member for Whippersnappers TNG\, and is the founder and lead organizer of BIPOC at Frolicon. She presents across the Southeast at events including Frolicon\, Southeast Leatherfest\, and Dark Odyssey\, and has been published thrice in Black Leather in Color Magazine. Sarai311 is also the author of ‘What We Could Never Be’ and ‘Unholy Attachments’\, and is known for creating spaces where kink\, identity\, and intentional self-exploration can safely coexist. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/36b8033347

SUMMARY:Kinky Speed Friending with PsychoKitty
DESCRIPTION:We can’t promise love\, but we can help you with a fun night full of meeting people\, a lot of people\, fast. \nOur purpose is to encourage you to meet new people. \n– Find people with similar kinks as yours. \n– Find people with whom to explore new kinks. \n– Find new friends. \n– Find new people to play with. \n  \nPeople will be separated by appetite\, either top or bottom. (Switches can pick a side or wait to see what side is needed more.) And then you will get two minutes with each person and a chance to connect afterward. \nThe evening is about meeting people who complement your kinky appetite\, not about identity or gender. The people you meet will be worth meeting\, even if they aren’t your appetite. \nOnce the event has started\, we can not add new people\, so please be on time. \n  \nPRESENTER: \nRyan “Psychokitty” has been helping people connect with similar events for over a decade\, from the old Shibaricon in Chicago to Dark Odyssey: Surrender\, or hosting events at the SF Citadel\, Catalyst\, and of course Wicked Grounds. \n  \nACCESS: \nIn SF\, this event will be held at Trellis.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Dating as Shadow Work: Turning Emotional Triggers into Pathways of Growth with Marie Thouin PhD
DESCRIPTION:Dating has a way of bringing uncomfortable feelings to the surface—fast. Few other arenas of life expose our tender spots like romance does. One moment\, we are flying high and find ourselves pedestalizing hot strangers; the next\, we’re swimming in insecurity\, shame\, devastation\, or hopelessness. \nOur shadow self represents the parts of us that we hide from our own sight—patterns and traits we would prefer not to feel\, identify with\, or be viewed as by others. However\, what we resist persists: when repressed\, our shadow often controls our lives from the sidelines\, keeping authentic love and connection at arm’s length. \nIntegrating the shadow is about reclaiming disowned parts of ourselves in order to gain awareness\, wholeness\, and personal agency. In this class\, we’ll explore dating as a spiritual and psychological practice—a living lab for shadow integration. Through guided reflection\, dialogue\, and practical tools\, we’ll look at the emotions we most want to avoid: embarrassment\, humiliation\, abandonment\, disappointment\, shame\, insecurity\, grandiosity\, and more. We will learn how to work with them skillfully. Rather than chasing validation or avoiding pain\, we’ll reframe dating as a path of self-inquiry\, expansion\, and authenticity. With this framework\, every experience\, even “bad dates\,” becomes material for growth\, self-reclamation\, and emotional liberation. \nBy shifting from a win/lose mindset to one of curiosity and evolution\, participants will learn how to date from a place of truth in relationships—not from the shadow’s behind-the-scenes manipulation. \nYou’ll learn how to: \nRecognize and name shadow emotions and patterns that surface in your dating experiences \nTransform emotional triggers into insights for integration and healing \nReclaim your psycho-emotional space from rejection loops and idealization \nApproach dating as a sacred practice of awareness\, embodiment\, and authenticity \nDate others from a place of wholeness and authenticity\, paving the path to better relationships \nFormat: \nEmbodied meditation + interactive talk + guided reflection exercises + group dialogue \nWho it’s for: \nThis class is for anyone who senses that dating can be more than just a search for “the one” and that it can be a profound mirror and teacher. \nIt’s especially for: \nIntellectually and spiritually curious humans who love psychological depth and meaning-making \nRelationship geeks and emotional explorers who want to understand their own patterns more deeply \nQueer\, non-monogamous\, kinky\, or otherwise non-traditional daters seeking a growth-oriented framework that honors their complexity \nFree spirits who want to love and connect authentically\, without giving away their power \nAnyone tired of repetitive loops who’s ready to use dating as a site of awakening rather than reenactment \nNo matter your gender\, orientation\, or relational style\, this space invites honesty\, courage\, and curiosity about what dating stirs within you\, and how every emotional trigger can become a doorway to greater freedom. \nPRESENTER: \nMarie Thouin\, PhD is a Dating & Relationship Coach who supports and guides people of all backgrounds and relational orientations to create intentional and vibrant love lives. She is the author of “What is Compersion? Understanding Positive Empathy in Consensually Non-Monogamous Relationships\,” the first-ever comprehensive scholarly book on compersion. She has been featured in several publications and podcasts\, including ELLE\, the Savage Lovecast\, The Times of London\, and HuffPost. Marie has also published seminal research studies\, the first encyclopedia entry on compersion\, and is the creator of www.WhatIsCompersion.com\, a popular website that features her research\, blogs\, and resources on the topic of compersion.

SUMMARY:Diving Deep Discovering and Voicing Erotic Desires - A Six Week Course with Miriam Green
DESCRIPTION:The first step in negotiating is voicing what we want. But many of us run into challenges: What do I want? As I figure that out\, how do I feel safe talking out loud about my desires?\nThis six week course is designed to help kinksters and other erotic adventurers get un-stuck around our evolving desires and how to ask for them. This work is perfect for anyone launching a new phase in their erotic journeys (or feeling stuck in an old phase). \n\n\nEngage in a journey of self-discovery\n\nThis six week course is designed to help kinksters and other erotic adventurers get un-stuck around our evolving desires and how to ask for them. This work is perfect for anyone launching a new phase in their erotic journeys (or feeling stuck in an old phase). \nTogether\, we’ll explore: \nDiscovering and honoring what turns you on \nSafely exploring kink and other edgy forms of eroticism \nTrying new skills in the bedroom and beyond \nDeepening your insights into your own desires \nDisentangling from others’ erotic projections \nFinding your voice and speaking freely \nSharing the desires you’re afraid to voice \n\nAbout Miriam Green\n\nMiriam Green has been in the public kink scene for over twenty years in the Austin\, Houston\, and San Francisco scenes. They teach a series of KINK 101 classes on the SF kink community\, BDSM negotiations\, and dating while kinky. They also are the owner of Wicked Grounds\, San Francisco’s leader in BDSM education and community building. \nHow we’ll engage\nThe six week course will run live from November 1 – December 14\, 2026. \nThis class will include six total weeks of content and homework\, three 90-minute live online group sessions on Monday evenings (all recorded for later participation if needed)\, and at least one half-hour individual consult with instructor Miriam Green. (Our class tiers include the option to add more consulting for your own journey.) \nOur three 90-minute live group sessions will be offered via Zoom on Monday\, November 2; Monday\, November 23; and Monday\, December 7 – all at 6pm Pacific time. \nSessions will be recorded for later viewing or for those who cannot attend the sessions live. \nIs this course for you?\n\nDo you get stuck when asked “what do you want in intimate relationships?”\nAre you uncomfortable telling partners about your desires and kinks?\nHave you been doing the same thing for a long time and want to find new routes to eroticism?\nDo you want a deep understanding of the physical and psychological responses you have to kink?\nDo you want to connect deeply with others?\n\nThen yes: this course is for you! \nPrevious students say …\n“Knowing why you do kink is the most valuable asset any kinkster can have\, moreso than any technique or toy on the market. Mir’s inclusive framework and expansive knowledge base create an amazing sandbox for players to explore what makes them tick and how to better pursue it. Whether you’ve been playing for five minutes or fifty years\, this class is a game-changer!” – Ari Can-Do \nTICKETING: \nhttps://wickedgroundsannex.teachable.com/p/diving-deep-discovering-and-voicing-your-desires_2026
