SUMMARY:SF: Kinky Speed Friending with PsychoKitty
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets exclusively on Plura! \n— \nFeeling 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. \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. \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. \nWe cannot admit anyone after about 7:10 (once the event has begun)\, so please plan accordingly! Late arrivals cannot be refunded. \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: Autism and Kink with John Pendal
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we look at the overlap between autism and kink. \n\nWhat is autism\, and what’s the right language to use?\nWhy might an autistic person be attracted to a kinky environment?\nCan BDSM be used as a form of sensory regulation?\nWhat’s the difference between neurotypical and autistic communication?\nWhat would be useful to know if you’re playing with a neurodivergent person?\nAnd how can you negotiate a scene with someone who doesn’t know where masking ends and they begin?\n\nThis workshop isn’t just for autistic folk\, it can help anyone who feels like an outsider or would like to create a more inclusive environment. \nPRESENTER: \nExperienced BDSM educator and comedian John Pendal joins us all the way from London\, England. \nIn 2003\, John became the 25th person (and only Brit) to win the annual International Mr Leather contest in Chicago.

SUMMARY:Kink Class Incubator from Concept to Launch
DESCRIPTION:Ready to take charge of your curriculum?\n\nSince 2019\, Wicked Grounds Annex has provided resources for our instructors and would-be instructors to develop stronger\, more impactful\, more engaging classes — along with strategies to find\, engage\, and build communities with the best students for their content. \nWe can help you change kink culture for the better by refining your course ideas and optimizing your marketing approach. This course will improve classes and marketing for experienced and new instructors alike. \n  \n\nOur approach\n\nIn this class\, you’ll learn what you need to get a basic start teaching in kink\, polyamory\, fetish\, magick — or any other peer-taught subject. Of course\, we’d be delighted if you plan to teach with Wicked Grounds\, but our goal is to create great teachers who can teach anywhere. \n  \nThroughout May 2026\, you will learn to: \nRefine and sharpen your core message \nFigure out what you really want to say — what only you can \nDifferentiate your class based on your experience and knowledge \nMarket your class in ways that really work \nInclude your students\, and learn as you teach \nGive a class that makes a difference \nEngage your audience and build your fans \nHow we’ll engage\nStarting Monday\, April 27\, we’ll engage in four major sections of work as you refine your concept\, discover your audience\, and take your class from concept to outline. \nYou’ll use the same approach that Miriam Green — a retired marketing consultant — uses to develop\, market\, and continually improve their classes. \nThis course will include four full weeks of self-directed coursework (which you may complete at your schedule and repeat as many times as you need) along with four or five 90-minute live sessions starting at 6pm Pacific: Mondays on April 27\, May 4\, May 11\, and May 18\, and concluding Tuesday\, May 26. \nStudents who join without a prior description and outline should plan to attend starting Monday\, April 27 for some basic concepts in class development. More advanced students are welcome to join April 27 but can opt to start May 4. \nAll live sessions will be recorded for those who cannot attend live or wish to review the session. You may also book additional consulting time with Mir as an add-on\, which may be completed during or after the class period. \n\nAbout Miriam Green\n\nMiriam Green has been a BDSM and kink educator since 2014\, when they acquired Wicked Grounds. Mir teaches 4-5 classes per month on average for Wicked Grounds and has also taught repeat engagements for Society of Janus\, Dark Odyssey Events\, Foundations\, Arizona Power Exchange (APEX)\, Desert Dominion\, and several other organizations and events. \nBefore joining the BDSM world\, Mir was a marketing\, brand and product development research consultant for several Fortune 500 companies under their day-to-day name\, and they leverage their niche marketing & product development knowledge in their own marketing and this class. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://wickedgroundsannex.teachable.com/p/kink-class-incubator-from-concept-to-launch111
