SUMMARY:ONLINE: Badass Boundaries: The Discipline of Power with Buzz Stingyear
DESCRIPTION:This is not a healing circle.\nThis is a standards reset. \nBadass Boundaries is for dominant-identifying men who are serious about leading with integrity. True dominance is not chaos\, rather it is clarity before intensity. When your protocol is explicit and solid\, trust deepens and your authority strengthens. \nThis course teaches you how to eliminate ambiguity and operate at a higher standard of consent and accountability. \nOperational Objectives:\nDefine the Area of Engagement: Establish boundaries clearly before action begins. \nBuild Enthusiastic Buy-In: Move beyond reluctant compliance into active participation. \nMaintain Signal Integrity: Use communication systems that protect both intensity and safety. \nPractice Zero-Defect Accountability: Own every outcome. No excuses. No deflection. \nYour word is the contract. Your discipline is the power. \nWhy Attend: The Tactical Advantage \nAmbiguity erodes trust. Precision builds it. \nMany consent violations don’t come from malice\, but come from assumption\, ego\, or skipping negotiation. In high-intensity dynamics\, this is a liability. When boundaries are vague\, leadership becomes fragile. \nConsent is not a leash. It is a green light. \nWhen the protocol is clear\, action becomes cleaner\, safer\, and more powerful. Stop guessing and defending yourself. Start leading with confidence and integrity. \nPRESENTER: \nBuzz_Stingyear is a late-blooming kinkster who grew up in a money-driven\, Trump-aligned household. He internalized a rigid worldview that took years of effort to unravel. With a doctorate in Counseling Psychology\, he strives to align his personal growth with his training. Entering the public kink community exposed him to the transformative power of feedback\, accountability\, and consent culture. Behaviors once normalized in his vanilla world were challenged and reexamined. Buzz remains committed to self growth\, becoming less reactive and more compassionate\, and supporting others in finding connection\, safety\, and self-awareness within the kink community. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/5323f9556b

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Dealing with Drop with Miriam Green
DESCRIPTION:Sub drop. Top drop. “A case of the Mondays.” \nWhatever we call it\, post-scene drop is frustrating\, irritating\, and isolating. It often makes us question — at least in the moment — what was otherwise an awesome scene. \nWhat is this awful mood we fall into after a scene\, and what the heck can we do about it? \nIn this class\, Miriam Green will draw on what we know about the neuropsychology of BDSM to help us better understand drop\, and build strategies for resilience when we face it. We’ll talk about: \n\nCommon misconceptions about drop\nWhat’s going on in the mind\, brain and body\nMind-body strategies for before\, during and after the scene to help us bounce back\nHow to change our narrative to avoid making drop worse\nThe best ways to effectively communicate after a scene — for good scenes and bad\n\nYou’ll come away with better self-understanding and a self-care toolkit to draw on when drop comes calling. Join us! \nPRESENTER: \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. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/002d00e8af

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Safety in the Shadows: Kink vs Toxicity in Dark Dynamics with vahavta
DESCRIPTION:Concepts such as consensual non-consent (CNC)\, degradation\, humiliation\, and the intentional imitation of abuse cycles are all valid ways to express power exchange and kink. They can also quickly blur the lines between “healthy” and “unhealthy.” \nThrough the sharing of stories\, research\, strategies\, and communication tools\, participants will be empowered to navigate these complex relationships and discern between dark dynamics and toxic behavior. We will emphasize the significance of communication\, active listening\, understanding\, boundaries\, and care within darker elements of total power exchange (TPE) and discuss preventive measures to minimize the risk of harm\, along with ways to course-correct if an unhealthy dynamic is identified. \nPRESENTER: \nvahavta began her kink journey about a decade ago and has been grateful to get to teach\, play\, and learn in communities in North Carolina\, Chicago\, St. Louis\, and internationally. Today\, she serves her husband in a 24/7 CNC-based Total Power Exchange with heavy elements of emotional play and service. 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 \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/07ac7256e9

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Dating as Shadow Work: Turning Emotional Triggers into Pathways of Growth with Marie Thouin PhD
DESCRIPTION:Dating has a way of bringing our shadow to the surface — fast. Few other arenas of modern life expose our tender spots quite like romance does. One moment\, we feel exhilarated; the next\, we’re swimming in shame\, rejection\, insecurity\, or hopelessness. In this class\, we’ll explore dating as a spiritual and psychological practice — a living laboratory for shadow integration. \nThrough guided reflection\, dialogue\, and practical tools\, we’ll look at the emotions we most want to avoid — abandonment\, disappointment\, shame\, embarrassment\, insecurity\, grandiosity — and learn how to work with them skillfully. Rather than chasing validation or avoiding pain\, we’ll reframe dating as a path of self-inquiry and expansion. Every experience\, even the “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 wholeness — not from the shadow’s need to be seen\, saved\, or soothed. \nYou’ll learn how to: \n\nRecognize and name the shadow emotions that surface in dating\nIdentify projection\, fantasy\, and defense patterns in romantic dynamics\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\n\nFormat:\nInteractive 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: \n\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\n\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 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. She is the Founder of Love InSight\, a Mindful Dating & Relationship Coaching practice where she supports and guides people of all backgrounds and relational orientations to create intentional and vibrant love lives. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/d2423e4586

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Boundary Expression and Enforcement with Laura Boyle of Ready for Polyamory
DESCRIPTION:As a certified People Pleaser and Anxious Conflict Avoider\, for many years I struggled immensely with communicating needs and boundaries with partners\, friends\, and metamours. Communication of needs and boundaries is the foundation of self-care in all relationships\, but especially polyamorous relationships\, where additional moving parts may necessitate additional communication around situational and emotional changes. \nThis class is a roundup of strategies that I’ve been offered over the years by therapists\, partners\, and my own imagination\, including the ones that don’t work for me but do for others I know\, to help attendees build their toolbox for this type of interaction. \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: \n$20 – $40 in advance. We offer a sliding scale so that cost is not a barrier to attendance.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Let's Play with Age Play! with Lee Harrington
DESCRIPTION:Age Play among consenting adults can be a vibrant\, imaginative landscape far beyond the stereotypes often projected from outside (or even inside) the kink community. In this class we’ll explore the personal\, cultural\, and archetypal roles used between consenting adults to take on creative roles other than their natal age. \nAdults might role play being mischievous teens\, kind babysitters\, bratty scouts\, and sweet adult babies\, and in doing so discover how these energies can inform both play and identity. Together we’ll look at pre-verbal\, toddler\, school-age\, teen\, and adult roles\, as well as familial archetypes and other “adults\,” honoring the many ways we express power\, care\, rebellion\, and delight. We’ll also touch on incorporating age play into other kinks while navigating the emotional land mines that past experiences may have left behind. Bring your curiosity\, your imagination\, and your willingness to explore. \nPRESENTER: \nLee Harrington is an internationally known spiritual and erotic authenticity educator\, gender explorer\, eclectic artist and award-winning author and editor on erotic and sacred experience. He’s been traveling the globe teaching and talking about sexuality\, psychology\, faith and desire\, and believes you deserve passion and connection in your life.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Negotiating and Communicating for Emotional S/M with vahavta
DESCRIPTION:Humiliation\, degradation\, objectification\, and other emotion-based play can\, for some people\, provide some of the most intense or playful kink experiences.

Today\, she serves her husband in a 24/7 CNC-based Total Power Exchange with heavy elements of emotional play and service. 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: \nThe regular ticket is $30. This is what most people should pay.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: High Protocol for D/s with Sinclair Sexsmith
DESCRIPTION:Making rules\, tasks\, and ongoing protocol is one of the cornerstones of D/s dynamics. But it can be daunting to figure out where to start\, how to create different structures of protocol for different spaces\, and how to maintain the strict container. \nWe’ll go over some tools that help make protocol easier to experiment with and implement\, such as the cartography of control areas\, the protocol game\, and levels of protocol. Ultimately\, protocol is all about creating adjustable\, adaptable guidelines that feed the dynamic and enhance D/s headspace. You’ll come away from this discussion with tools and structure to elevate your protocol in any situation. \nPRESENTER: \nSINCLAIR SEXSMITH (they/them) is a queer trans butch\, a leather dominant\, and a writer\, focusing on individual\, interpersonal\, and institutional systems of power. They study dominance and submission\, social & restorative justice\, the energetic body\, trauma\, and transformation. They have been in the kink communities since 1999\, and orchestrate transformative kink scenes through written erotica and ritual practice. They actively explore the philosophies of power exchange and the practicalities of sustainable\, long term D/s. As a leather community member\, titleholder\, and organizer\, Sinclair has presented and performed 200+ times at 75+ venues\, including International Ms. Leather\, Dark Odyssey\, SXSW\, Harvard\, and Oz Kink Fest. Their short story collection\, Sweet & Rough: Queer Kink Erotica\, was a 2016 finalist for a Lambda Literary Award\, and they have edited 7 queer erotica anthologies; their latest book is Daddy4Daddy: Queer Kink Erotica.
