Our six-week online intensive Diving Deep with Miriam Green is just five weeks away! (Nov 2 – Dec 13)

September 29, 2025 By Miriam Green

Diving Deep: Discovering & Voicing Your Erotic Desires with Miriam Green a six-week online intensive via Teachable and Zoom November 2 – December 13, 2025 ​Advance ticketing required. Get yours here!​ Please note: these workshops sell out in advance, and space is limited. To ensure your seat, please sign up as soon as you feel committed to this work. The first step in negotiating is voicing what we want. But many of us run into immediate challenges: What do I want? As I figure that out, how do I feel safe talking out loud about my desires? This six-week online intensive is designed to help kinksters and other erotic adventurers get un-stuck around our evolving desires and how to ask for them. Since 2023, we’ve been helping kinksters just like you create their own erotic roadmaps and advocate for their needs and wants. This work is perfect for anyone launching a new phase in their erotic journeys (or feeling stuck in an old phase). Is this course for you?​ Do you get stuck when asked “what do you want in intimate relationships?” Are you uncomfortable telling partners about your desires and kinks? Have you been doing the same thing for a long time and want to find new routes to eroticism? Do you want a deep understanding of the physical and psychological responses you have to kink? Do you want to connect deeply with others? Then yes: this course is for you! Together, we’ll explore: Discovering and honoring what turns you on Safely exploring kink and other edgy forms of eroticism Trying new skills in the bedroom and beyond Deepening your insights into your own desires Disentangling from others’ erotic projections Finding your voice and speaking freely Sharing the desires you’re afraid to voice How we’ll engage The six week course will run live from November 2 to December 13, 2025. This class will include six total weeks of content and homework, three 90-minute live online group sessions (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.) Our three live sessions will be offered via Zoom on Sunday, November 2, Sunday, November 23, and Sunday December 7. Sessions will be recorded for later viewing or for those who cannot attend the sessions live. Ticketed participants will have access to the course materials weekly as they are provided and will have the ability to participate at their own pace, attending the live sessions in real time or online at their convenience. ​​Tickets are available here, and space is limited.​​ Pricing plans are available for additional accessibility.

This Week with Wicked Grounds (9/18 – 9/28)

September 18, 2025 By Miriam Green

Hello kinksters – There is a lot going on this month with Wicked Grounds, but I want to start out this week by talking about another organization that has impacted me greatly. I’ve mentioned in some of my classes that when I moved to San Francisco, I was incredibly intimidated by the local scene, despite having been pretty active in my home communities in Texas. The first organization I got involved with in San Francisco was ​Mission Control​. When I volunteered to work for my first event there (Velvet!), I quickly made new friends and found a warm, welcoming community. I jumped both feet in, quickly finding myself at their old location several time for a big renovation project. When Mission Control lost that space on Mission Street, I was gutted. But those savvy folks found a new home in Oakland, and now they want to make it their forever home by buying the space. This is a huge deal not just for Mission Control but all of kinky and sex-positive San Francisco. If I have personally made a difference in your life, it’s probably because Mission Control helped me get into the local community. If you’d like to pay it forward to them, you can help them with critical fundraising to buy their forever home ​here​. Speaking of helping community thrive, we have a team for LeatherWalk on Sunday, September 21st. We’d love you to walk with us and/ or contribute to our team’s fundraising – whether or not you can attend live. This critical fundraiser works to keep San Francisco’s leather & kink scene thriving in uncertain times. ​Please find out more and contribute to our team here!​ If you’re in the Bay Area—or want to travel in, as thousands do from around the country—mark your calendars for Sunday, September 28th, the day of the Folsom Street Fair! We’ll be running an information booth, giving away some fabulous prizes, and will have meet-and-greets and ask-me-anything sessions with our own Miriam Green & Nick as well as several of our instructors! ​Check out our events listing on FetLife for the evolving details.​ We could use a few people to help us get prizes in the hands of kinksters, so if you’re interested, please drop us a note on FetLife or email Mir at WickedGrounds.com. Let’s take a look at this week! This Week! Thursday, September 18 Online: Learning the ropes? Curious about self-suspension as a long-term goal? You’ll want some excellent self-tying skills.
