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 one dozen 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: \n$20-$40 in advance. We offer a sliding scale\, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. The regular ticket is $30. This is what most people should pay. \nPlease note: This class is available for free to Wicked Grounds Patreon members who are subscribed at the VIP level ($30/month or higher). If you are a current Patreon member at that level\, please check Patreon for the promo code. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/b0dfc5d632

SUMMARY:SF: Kinky Speed Friending with PsychoKitty
DESCRIPTION:Feeling social pressure to find someone to connect with? \nWe 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. \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. \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. \nACCESS: \nIn SF\, this event will be held at Trellis. Please note that doors will close quickly so we recommend arriving 15 minutes before the event starts for check-in. \nPlease do not attend in person if you have any respiratory symptoms whatsoever. Anyone displaying signs of respiratory symptoms may be asked to leave\, regardless of vaccination status.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Sir! Yes Sir!: Exploring Protocol in Power Exchange Dynamics with Lee Harrington
DESCRIPTION:Everyone in the Dominant/Submissive and Master/Slave community seems to talk about protocol\, but what is it exactly? Where does the line between “common sense” or “etiquette” stop\, and protocol begin? \nWe will look at what Protocol is in a power exchange context\, delve into terminology\, and then examine formats of commonly recognized protocol systems and how these things develop in individual relationships and group dynamics. How does protocol change from public interactions to existing 24/7 in private dynamics? \nLet’s look into how to further develop our chosen dynamics\, implement them consistently\, and discuss the difference between enforcing protocol and punishment techniques. These concepts do NOT just apply to M/s and D/s dynamics – from active listening to self-sabotage\, this class will touch on communication and lifestyle skills for all types of relationships. \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. \nHis books include Playing Well With Others: Your Guide to Discovering\, Exploring and Negotiating the Kink\, Leather and BDSM Communities (with Mollena Williams)\, Sacred Kink: The Eightfold Paths of BDSM and Beyond\, Shibari You Can Use: Japanese Rope Bondage and Erotic Macramé\, and Traversing Gender: Understanding Transgender Realities\, amongst many others. \nLee has been a passion instigator\, academic\, adult film performer\, world-class sexual adventurer\, outspoken philosopher\, polytheist priest/ess\, kink/bondage expert\, and has been blogging about sex and spirit since 1998.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: From Harm to Healing: A Guide to Community Accountability with Adam and Ash of Consent Academy
DESCRIPTION:Consent incidents and violations happen. When they do it creates ripples through the lives of the people involved and the community as a whole. Sometimes these are handled well. Sometimes they’re not\, which frequently leads to more harm. \nJoin us for a look at a new way to deal with consent violations that works to support the person harmed\, foster accountability for the person who did the harm\, and manage the response for the community at large–including transforming the conditions that allowed harm to arise. \nConsent Academy is an educational collective founded in 2016 in Seattle\, WA\, currently with staff and volunteers all over the world. We believe consent is a part of everyday life\, and its practice builds stronger\, safer\, and more connected communities. Our approach incorporates disciplines of psychology\, sociology\, public health\, psychotherapy\, and personal coaching to create a systemic view of how consent impacts everyone\, from the bedroom to the boardroom. \nINSTRUCTORS: \nAdam is a community organizer\, mediator\, consent educator\, and ongoing learner. Their passions lie at the intersections of disability justice\, trauma-informed care\, consent\, embodied somatics\, and responses to and prevention of harm – including transformative justice and community accountability. They desire to help people play and communicate in safer\, skillful ways that are trauma-\, power-\, and risk-informed. Adam is an educator with several groups including The Consent Academy advocating for consent from the individual level to the systemic. They also do consent and accountability work in many contexts and community spaces\, including progressive organizing groups\, and are building out some exciting new projects around this in progressive organizing spaces as well as the kink+ world. \nAsha Lerae has been a part of Consent Academy since 2018\, teaching established curriculum\, creating new workshops\, facilitating discussion groups\, and acting as a consent advocate and consultant. She became Co-director of Consent Academy in January\, 2022. She is passionate about consent education as a way to reduce trauma\, promote pleasure and eroticism\, support accountability\, and foster cultural change that balances autonomy with responsibility. Asha is also an adjunct faculty member at Antioch University Seattle\, an AnteUp! certified sexuality\, gender\, and justice educator\, a certified abortion doula\, and somatic sex educator. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/9da16b9442

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Sex Magick for Kinksters with Miriam Green
DESCRIPTION:The traditional definition of magick is “the art and science of changing consciousness in conformity with Will.” We could also say it’s a way of moving and transforming energy and perception. In terms of our life work\, magick is a set of tools that allows us to get out of our own way to more effectively do our work in the world. \nThe magickian’s tool kit includes techniques such as ecstatic trance\, symbolic ritual\, polarity work\, breathing techniques\, sensual immersion\, and more. The sex magickian specifically works with the energies raised in solo or partnered play as fuel for their spellwork or life Work. \nThose tools should seem very familiar to us kinksters. You may not be a magickian\, but most of us are playing around in the magickian’s tool kit. \nThis class will explore some basic information on how to understand the potent energies invoked in D/s and S/m. We’ll talk about the nature of the soul\, how to engage the deeper mind\, creating a safe container for a scene\, and what one can do with the energies we raise in BDSM play. Whether you believe in magick\, want to believe in magick\, or think this is all just a fun metaphor for how the mind works\, you are sure to gain new tools and perspectives on BDSM play by attending this \nPRESENTER: \nMiriam Green has been in the public kink scene for over one dozen years in the Austin\, Houston\, and San Francisco scenes.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Latex: A History with Dolly Diatima
DESCRIPTION:How is it possible that a simple tree sap sparked a powerful community of fetishism with a rich culture and extensive history? To answer this question\, this class explores the history of rubber\, a journey that involves the Aztec people\, quack medicine\, high fashion\, the Second World War\, raincoat fetishists\, and much more. The class will begin by discussing what latex is and where it comes from and will continue into a chronological history of rubber as a material as well as how it relates to fashion and fetishism. This journey will begin in 1600 BCE and end in the modern day. Along the way\, we will discuss all the wild and exciting pieces of rubber history that have worked together to create rubber fetishism as it exists today. \nTowards the end of class\, we will briefly explore different methods of latex care to ensure your pieces stay shiny and last long! \nINSTRUCTOR: \nDolly Diatima is a Persian American professional dominatrix\, writer\, fetish model\, and lifestyle kinkster. As a nonbinary and neurodivergent sex worker on the ace spectrum\, they offer a unique perspective into kink and sexuality which they work to bring into their sessions as a domme as well as into their writings and classes. They are currently one semester away from a BA in Philosophy and can often be found discussing the intersection of kink and philosophical concepts on their blog. After graduation\, they plan to pursue an AASECT sexuality educator certification. In their spare time\, they enjoy drawing in the pop surrealism style\, watching extreme horror films\, and collecting vintage fashion. They reside in the San Francisco Bay Area with their big beautiful tuxedo cat\, Ligeia. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/7da128c161

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Trauma-Informed Age Play: Through the Lens of Care and Caution with Draven
DESCRIPTION:This series will explore the 4C’s of trauma-informedness (Compassion\, Consent\, Care\, and Caution) to understand the cultural and historical aspects of harm done to those who are child-like. In each of the workshops\, we will dive into trauma-informedness. \nYou may attend all workshops or just one\, it is up to you! These workshops are interconnected but can be attended individually. \nThis is the third in the series\, the other two are 2/9: https://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/c9d6dba8c1 \nAnd 2/23:\nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/854ca21176 \nIn the first workshop\, we looked at age play through the lens of compassion\, exploring historical pathologies\, aspects of age play\, and how we can be compassionate with others and ourselves. \nThe second workshop will explore the concept of the complexity of consent within age play. Consent is critical to develop trauma-informed relationships with those who play as a younger age and their caregivers. We will explore how to live a consensual life within an adultist/sanist society. \nThe third workshop will highlight the importance of care and caution within age-play dynamics\, whether that’s individually\, dually\, or in a group setting. In this final workshop\, we will integrate all aspects of trauma-informedness together to understand the importance of connecting with community for a healthy life. \nINSTRUCTOR: \nDraven is a Trauma-Informed Sexuality Educator with Dynamic Education and Counseling and a Ph.D. in Human Sexuality student at the California Institute of Integral Studies. From a playful and authentic base\, Draven weaves research and stories to teach individuals how to process one’s trauma with themselves while being supported by a therapist. While teaching\, they knit stories in to include intersectional identities and how oppressive systems affect individuals and communities. As a Trauma-Informed Sexuality Educator\, Draven coaches neurodivergent individuals/couples/polycules\, provides trauma processing groups and conducts a variety of workshops on healthy sexuality. Draven also volunteers at The Consent Academy as a Consent Educator and at Queer Space as the Founder and LGBTQ+ Liaison. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/7013fc36d5
