SUMMARY:ONLINE: The Spark Between Us: Energy\, Presence & Power in BDSM with Sir Scott and Lecee
DESCRIPTION:Before the flogger lands\, before the rope tightens\, before the first command is spoken—there’s a spark. That unspoken\, electric pull between Dominant and submissive. The gaze that says now. The breath that says yes. That’s the true beginning of the scene. \nJoin Sacred Fire Kink for “The Spark Between Us\,” a live online workshop hosted through Wicked Grounds\, where we dive deep into the invisible\, intuitive art of energy play in BDSM. \nWhether you’re a Dominant learning to shape the space with your presence or a submissive yearning to align your energy in surrender\, this class will show you how to tune the current between you and your partner to create scenes that feel magnetic\, powerful\, and alive. \n✨ In this 2-hour experience\, we’ll explore: \n\nBreath syncing and energetic polarity\nEye contact\, stillness\, and presence as tools of command\nHow to project energy without touch\nEnergetic feedback loops in scene flow\nCord-cutting and energetic closure practices\n\nCome solo\, partnered\, or curious. This class is interactive but pressure-free—designed to meet you wherever you are on your kink journey. \nBecause the best Dominants lead with their energy—and the deepest submission begins in the breath before surrender. \nPRESENTER: \nScott – “FireOnTheMtnTop”\nScott is a lifestyle Dominant\, Sadist\, Daddy\, and Primal Edge Player with over 18 years in the kink community. He’s a founding Director of G.O.D.S.\, creator of Colorado KNKE Kinky Camping\, and a seasoned Dungeon Monitor\, lifestyle event Emcee\, and presenter. \nAs a Dominant\, Scott teaches that leadership in kink is sacred work—rooted in care\, emotional safety\, and integrity. He’s known for creating grounded\, real-world conversations about power and play that help people feel seen\, strong\, and turned on by their truth. \nLecee\nLecee is the “yin” to Scott’s Dominant fire—his little “s.”\nShe’s been active in the lifestyle for 8 years and brings playful insight\, emotional wisdom\, and lived experience as a submissive. \nTogether\, she and Scott co-create containers that are intimate\, brave\, and authentic. Her presence helps others feel permission to explore new desires\, embrace vulnerability\, and rewrite the old stories they were told about sex\, surrender\, and and worthiness.\nhttps://fetlife.com/SacredFireKink \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested; $20-$40 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Creating Containers for Kink with HG Wyndell
DESCRIPTION:Scenes start when the idea first comes into being. It then builds layers of momentum\, it can be anything from a slow burn that moves over years\, to an idea that flash boils. Crafting our calling in\, setting the stage\, and aligning our goals can turn a relatively simple idea into a powerful moment of dreaming. We’ll talk about getting all of our senses on board with our brains and making magic happen. \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: \n$30 suggested; $20-$40 sliding scale. We offer a sliding scale\, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance. Choose the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/2e106c3c09

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Negotiation Skills for Subs & Bottoms with Faun
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re brand-spanking new to the scene\, or you’ve been involved for years\, negotiating a new scene or with a new partner can be a daunting concept for kinky submissives and anyone on the lower side of the D/s slash. \nIn this workshop led by a sub with extensive experience Domming\, we’ll examine the do’s and don’ts of effective negotiating communication\, how to navigate the scene\, ways to identify important traits in compatible play partners\, and guide kinksters of all levels and experiences to co-creating the scenes they’ve always wanted to have! \nThere will also be a live demonstration of pick-up play negotiation and an open Q&A at the end. \nPRESENTER: \nFaun (he/him) is a smut writer and kink educator from the Pacific Northwest. Despite knowing he was firmly on the ace spectrum in his teenage years\, he always felt that something was missing. One day\, he stumbled upon a website chock full of hypnokinky stories\, and the rest is history. Now\, he hopes to help others find their own niche in the kink community by sharing what he’s learned through study and experience. You can find him on AO3 and tumblr as spiraledfaun\, and on Fet as deerfaun. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/ed38d3f81e

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Shadow\, Power & the Erotic Self: A Ritual Descent with Sir Scott

Adult themes and intense material will be engaged with care. \n**FAQ Highlights** \n**Q: Will this involve live scenes or nudity?** \nA: No. This is a teaching\, reflection\, and ritual exploration class\, not a play party. \n**Q: What if I’m new to kink or shadow work?** \nA: Perfect.

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: \n$30 suggested; $20-$40 scale. We offer multiple price points\, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance. Choose the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/5c4e43aefe

SUMMARY:ONLINE: When No Doesn't Mean No: Negotiation and Communication for Consensual Nonconsent with vahavta
DESCRIPTION:How do you keep yourself safe when you want to feel you’re in real danger? How do you push someone past their breaking point and still leave room to repair the damage? Is there a way to forego hard limits and safewords and stay ethical in play? When you start to play on the edges of consent\, everything becomes a little bit trickier. \nIn this class\, vahavta draws on her experiences and stories from a decade years in a 24/7 consensual non-consent (“CNC”) relationship\, sharing tips and strategies for developing and staying within a personal risk profile\, playing with triggers\, communicating in-scene without “breaking character\,” and dealing with cognitive dissonance (“did I really want that?”) in drop. We will explore the mental and physical considerations and contingency plans needed to enter a CNC environment\, based on the desires and boundaries expressed by both bottoms and tops. \nPRESENTER: \nvahavta began her kink journey eight years ago and has been grateful to get to teach\, play\, and learn in communities in North Carolina\, Chicago\, St. Louis\, and Israel along the way. Today\, she serves her husband in a 24/7 CNC-based Total Power Exchange with heavy elements of emotional play and service and is often found sporting large bruises\, writing\, or enjoying a good beer. 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: \n$20 – $40 in advance.

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/81e7134fd0
