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

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Listening with Empathy with Master Retro Bella
DESCRIPTION:One of the most common traits among failed scenes\, negotiations\, and contract discussions is misunderstanding the intent behind a verbal statement. Oftentimes the intent is buried behind “under talk” and lack of trust. This can be particularly challenging when communication is already at a standstill. Join me as we explore how to regain trust and relearn how to listen with empathy. \nIn this class\, we will be covering: \n\nWhat is “Under talk” and how can we recognize it in our speech\nReading body language or the lack of body language\nLearning how to become a more empathic person\nRebuilding trust after a communication break down\nHow to create a safe place for private talks\n\nPRESENTER: \nMaster Retro Bella is a Latina High Femme Master and Leather woman from Bakersfield\, California. Her pronouns are She/Her/Hers. She is the first woman to earn the title of 2023 Southwest Master and became the first person of Latin descent to hold the 2024 International Master title. She is passionate about Latinx/ne representation in M/s and Leather spaces. This passion fueled her to create the Latine Leather Pride flag\, which debuted at South Plains Leatherfest in 2025\, and to become the founder of Latinos in Leather. Recognized as one of the Onyx Pearls’ “Young 8\,” she carries the pearl name Amara Pearl. Currently\, Master Retro Bella curates the Latinx Queer Chronicles on Substack\, which showcases the intersectionality of queerness and Latinidad. \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Strangers in the Night: Fray Sexuality\, Relationships & YOU! with Lady V
DESCRIPTION:Fray Sexuality is often described as an attraction to new and/or unfamiliar people\, often with little to no interpersonal connection previously. \nBeing Fray Sexual doesn’t mean you can’t have or maintain relationships. It doesn’t mean you’re cold or “not capable of love”. Its just a different layer of how someone is sexually attracted to people & practices their sexuality. \nFray Sexuality is often looked down upon instead of celebrated for what it is. This class helps us understand what Fray Sexuality is\, how to navigate being Fray Sexual\, & how to support a partner who’s Fray. \nJoin Lady V in the messy fray that is Fray Sexuality! In this class we’ll cover: \n\nSetting & maintaining boundaries with primary partners\nGetting needs met and navigating points of safety when getting intimate with strangers\nMaintaining primary & romantic relationships while being fray sexual\nCreating connection points outside of sexuality & romance\nBalancing respect with (sub)conscious objectification\n\nThis class is geared towards fellow fray sexuals\, partners of fray sexuals & the curious! The class is heavily geared toward consensual non-monogamy. \nCan’t make it? Recording available for 7 days! \nPRESENTER: \n@The_Lady_V (she/her) is a spiritually & socioculturally driven sex-positive educator\, community organizer & pro domina. \nUsing her background in film\, Lady V is able to use the power of improv to switch on a dime. Prior\, she served as the Program Manager for one of the few agencies in the world specializing in navigating sexuality & gender for people navigating intellectual/developmental disabilities. \nLady V has taught for conferences & sex positive venues across the US. She serves as an Advocacy Board Member for Sex Positive World & proudly helps facilitate their education as the Remote Education Coordinator. Lady V has also served the community by facilitating public health events. \nShe is an out\, proud\, & fierce-as-fire transwoman with a passion for empowering others. While hailing from Detroit\, Michigan\, she has settled in Salem\, Oregon\, with her Mistress in a 24/7 TPE where she serves as the majordomo for her leather family\, the Atomic Army. Lady V considers herself both a lifestyle & professional switch. Any way the wind blows\, it doesn’t really matter to her. \nShe hopes to inspire others to enjoy sex positivity from an authentic place\, as well as embrace their spiritual place within sex positivity & find healing within it. \nYou can view more of her work at https://TheLadyV.Net or Fetlife at @‌The_Lady_V. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Creating Energetic Containers for Kink with HG Wyndell
DESCRIPTION:BDSM scenes can bring up powerful energies. Creating a clear container and intention for those energies can help the scene become even more powerful. \nThrough this class\, you’ll discover how to align your play across all your physical and emotional senses to deepen your connection and power. Learn how to call in your own power\, shore up your partner’s power\, align your goals for the scene\, and turn even the simplest scene ideas into powerful engagements. We’ll discuss strategies for simple rituals to open and close our scenes\, helping our scenes have a clear storyline starting with our first ideas\, building momentum\, and ramping up to a strong peak. \nWe will explore: \n\nMindfully setting intentions and goals for our scene\nHow to deeply incorporate myth\, story\, and ritual to build strong stories for play and transformation\nIncorporating language\, symbols\, and supplies to enhance our experience\nCalling in all our physical and emotional senses to support the scene’s story\n\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: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/f9b8480cba
