SUMMARY:ONLINE: Beyond the Kitchen Table: Modes and Models of Parallel Polyamory with Laura Boyle
DESCRIPTION:Many polyamorous “authorities” present kitchen-table groups as the holy grail of polyam interactions. While these relationship styles work well for many people\, structures that fall outside that framework can be equally positive and healthy. This class will focus on building parallel relationships\, being intentional about your choice of how much to interact with your partners’ wider networks\, and how to openly communicate about: \n\nHow to be entwined in someone’s life but not close with a meta\n“Stepping off the relationship escalator”\nHow to negotiate wanting a different level of interaction than a meta does\nBalancing D/s concerns with poly concerns\nMaximizing personal responsibility and minimizing stress on hinge partners\n\nPRESENTER: \nLaura Boyle is a relationship coach\, educator\, and author of Monogamy? In this Economy? Finances\, Childrearing\, and Other Practical Concerns of Polyamory. She’s the voice behind the Ready for Polyamory blog and podcast\, and has been an expert voice on polyamory in such publications as The Boston Globe and Cosmopolitan. She’s been polyamorous for nearly 20 years and has been teaching since 2018. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/b5a15df977

SUMMARY:ONLINE: From Little Princess to Rebellious Teen: An Ageplay Workshop with Mel and Memi
DESCRIPTION:The idea behind this workshop is to explore the possibilities of ageplay and everything that is yet uncharted about it. We want to offer a cared for space for everyone interested in exploring how being a baby\, a child or a teen can feel\, and for them to be heard and not alone in their kinks and lifestyle. \nWe will cover the basics for anyone interested in diving into ageplay\, and show how tender\, fun and sexy playing with age can be\, knowing that we are doing a radical act of vulnerability with the intent of making people feel accepted and welcome them into this family (hahah) of practices. \nWhat the workshop will cover: \n\nWhat is ageplay: intro\, styles\, dynamics and more!\nKink shame and stigma surrounding ageplay (and how to de-pathologize)\nHow to negotiate for an ageplay scene\nSmall negotiation demo\nArchetypes and scene ideas\nHow to explore “little” and “big” spaces\nIdentity\, 24/7 dynamics and roles\n\nPRESENTERS: \nMel (he/him) is an Argentinian trans masc aligned gender fluid sex and BDSM educator. He is the co-founder of Kinky Vibe Argentina\, a collective based in Buenos Aires that hosts events\, support groups and workshops for the kinky\, queer and neurodivergent community both online and offline. Lifestyle kinkster\, he has been doing kink for the last ten years\, identifies as sub-leaning switch\, and is a sex worker (ProDomme). \nOne of his greatest passions is thinking about power\, risk\, and self-consent in the context of kink\, and spending most of his time accompanying people on their kinky journey. He has been teaching about kink\, pleasure\, risk\, and depathologization for the last nine years. \nMemi (he/him) is an Argentinian trans masc person\, who is a lifestyle kinkster\, a history teacher\, and an early-career researcher in the history of sexualities. He has been doing kink for almost a decade in a wide variety of kinks\, relationships\, dynamics\, and sides of the slash. He is very curious about power\, oppression\, and the complex history behind kink\, the space where didactics and kink meet\, and loves to be a kink enabler to everyone around. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/67b3f4cac6

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Long Distance Polyamory w/ HG Wyndell
DESCRIPTION:Whether partners are 2 hours away or halfway around the world\, it can take a lot more than Google Calendar to make long-distance polyamorous relationships functional\, healthy\, and fulfilling. \nSometimes the distance is a six-month job placement\, sometimes it’s living thousands of miles apart. Distance will multiply the complexity already present in polyamorous\nrelationships. \nWe’ll discuss the challenges\, additional dynamics\, and helpful approaches to long-distance polyamory based on lived experience. Hopefully leaving you with more tools in your toolbox for figuring out how to make it work in healthy and fulfilling ways for you. \nPRESENTER: \nHG Wyndell is an activist\, educator\, and Spiritworker who is driven to facilitate accessible ritual spaces for folks seeking access to more deeply nourishing relationships with themselves and others. They are committed to living life through a lens of wonder\, and in our experience\, they don’t mess around when it comes to embracing the complex beingness of whoever is blessed to be in their presence and consideration. They weave their lived experiences with intentional relationship\, genuine gender expression\, ceremony\, creative arts\, chronic illness\, and embracing pleasure seamlessly with a whole lot of love and a good bit of magic into the rich curriculum they offer. \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested; $20-$40 scale. We offer multiple price points\, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance. Choose the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/5c4e43aefe

SUMMARY:ONLINE: BDSM & Attachment Styles w/ Sir Panda
DESCRIPTION:Attachments are emotional bonds formed in childhood\, and whether we form secure or insecure attachments is dependent upon how our needs for attention\, love\, and growth are met. The patterns set in place carry forward to how we form adult attachments\, including friendships\, romantic partners\, and the bonds of power exchange. \nThis presentation will examine the basics of Attachment Theory\, how attachment styles are expressed\, and how they are manifested in different BDSM identities and roles. The class will also touch on how to encourage secure attachment in ourselves and in our relationships with others. \nPRESENTER: \nSir Panda (He/Him) is a Dominant and sadist who lives his busy polyamorous and kinky life in the Seattle area with his wife and and his collared life partner. He has been a kink educator since he originated the Passport Program at the Center for Sex Positive Culture (CSPC) in 2011\, teaching consent and BDSM basics to new members. In 2015\, Sir Panda founded the View From the Top dominant discussion group\, now hosted online on the fourth Tuesday of the month (https://thecspc.org/event). \nSir Panda has served in a variety of roles in the kink community\, including event host for Arborea Falls and the CSPC\, BDSM Lead for Fantasy Forrest Events\, and Program Lead for KinkFest 2023.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: When No Doesn't Mean No: Negotiation and Communication for Consensual Nonconsent with vahavta
DESCRIPTION:How do you keep yourself safe when you want to feel you’re in real danger? How do you push someone past their breaking point and still leave room to repair the damage? Is there a way to forego hard limits and safewords and stay ethical in play? When you start to play on the edges of consent\, everything becomes a little bit trickier. \nIn this class\, vahavta draws on her experiences and stories from a decade years in a 24/7 consensual non-consent (“CNC”) relationship\, sharing tips and strategies for developing and staying within a personal risk profile\, playing with triggers\, communicating in-scene without “breaking character\,” and dealing with cognitive dissonance (“did I really want that?”) in drop. We will explore the mental and physical considerations and contingency plans needed to enter a CNC environment\, based on the desires and boundaries expressed by both bottoms and tops. \nPRESENTER: \nvahavta began her kink journey eight years ago and has been grateful to get to teach\, play\, and learn in communities in North Carolina\, Chicago\, St. Louis\, and Israel along the way. Today\, she serves her husband in a 24/7 CNC-based Total Power Exchange with heavy elements of emotional play and service and is often found sporting large bruises\, writing\, or enjoying a good beer. vahavta is disabled\, Jewish\, and femme\, and believes in approaching kink with a firm understanding of intersectional context. As an educator\, she aims to give honest and risk-aware information that applies to the realities of human behavior\, focusing largely on the “how” and asking people to consider their personal capabilities\, interests\, and readiness. Passionate about community collaboration\, vahavta is proud to run the Risk Evaluation Database (RED) and contribute regularly to kink blogs and her own Fetlife writing index. In all aspects of her life\, she strives to be a work in progress. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance.
