SUMMARY:ONLINE: Negotiating and Communicating for Emotional S/M with vahavta
DESCRIPTION:Humiliation\, degradation\, objectification\, and other emotion-based play can\, for some people\, provide some of the most intense or playful kink experiences. But as a more abstract kink\, it can be challenging to negotiate effectively. Add the complicated nature of safewording when emotions have already been affected\, and you have a recipe for some potentially major pitfalls. In this class\, join experienced emotional masochist vahavta to explore your interest in emotional play\, discuss some of the possibilities for its directions (both good and bad!)\, and learn how to communicate with partners to minimize harm and maximize the experience you want. \nPRESENTER: \nvahavta began her kink journey about a decade ago and has been grateful to get to teach\, play\, and learn in communities in North Carolina\, Chicago\, St. Louis\, and internationally. Today\, she serves her husband in a 24/7 CNC-based Total Power Exchange with heavy elements of emotional play and service. 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: \nThe regular ticket is $30. This is what most people should pay. We offer multiple price points\, so cost is less of a barrier to attendance. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/5dfee4bec6

This series welcomes all genders\, orientations\, and dynamic styles. This workshop is designed for newcomers to BDSM but is open to anyone who wants new tools to improve their BDSM communications. \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: Let's Play with Age Play! with Lee Harrington
DESCRIPTION:Age Play among consenting adults can be a vibrant\, imaginative landscape far beyond the stereotypes often projected from outside (or even inside) the kink community. In this class we’ll explore the personal\, cultural\, and archetypal roles used between consenting adults to take on creative roles other than their natal age. \nAdults might role play being mischievous teens\, kind babysitters\, bratty scouts\, and sweet adult babies\, and in doing so discover how these energies can inform both play and identity. Together we’ll look at pre-verbal\, toddler\, school-age\, teen\, and adult roles\, as well as familial archetypes and other “adults\,” honoring the many ways we express power\, care\, rebellion\, and delight. We’ll also touch on incorporating age play into other kinks while navigating the emotional land mines that past experiences may have left behind. Bring your curiosity\, your imagination\, and your willingness to explore. \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.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Boundary Expression and Enforcement with Laura Boyle of Ready for Polyamory
DESCRIPTION:As a certified People Pleaser and Anxious Conflict Avoider\, for many years I struggled immensely with communicating needs and boundaries with partners\, friends\, and metamours. Communication of needs and boundaries is the foundation of self-care in all relationships\, but especially polyamorous relationships\, where additional moving parts may necessitate additional communication around situational and emotional changes. \nThis class is a roundup of strategies that I’ve been offered over the years by therapists\, partners\, and my own imagination\, including the ones that don’t work for me but do for others I know\, to help attendees build their toolbox for this type of interaction. \nPRESENTER: \nLaura Boyle is a relationship coach\, educator\, and author of Monogamy? In this Economy? Finances\, Childrearing\, and Other Practical Concerns of Polyamory. She’s the voice behind the Ready for Polyamory blog and podcast\, and has been an expert voice on polyamory in such publications as The Boston Globe and Cosmopolitan. She’s been polyamorous for nearly 20 years and has been teaching since 2018. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance. We offer a sliding scale so that cost is not a barrier to attendance.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Dating as Shadow Work: Turning Emotional Triggers into Pathways of Growth with Marie Thouin PhD
DESCRIPTION:Dating has a way of bringing our shadow to the surface — fast. Few other arenas of modern life expose our tender spots quite like romance does. One moment\, we feel exhilarated; the next\, we’re swimming in shame\, rejection\, insecurity\, or hopelessness. In this class\, we’ll explore dating as a spiritual and psychological practice — a living laboratory for shadow integration. \nThrough guided reflection\, dialogue\, and practical tools\, we’ll look at the emotions we most want to avoid — abandonment\, disappointment\, shame\, embarrassment\, insecurity\, grandiosity — and learn how to work with them skillfully. Rather than chasing validation or avoiding pain\, we’ll reframe dating as a path of self-inquiry and expansion. Every experience\, even the “bad dates\,” becomes material for growth\, self-reclamation\, and emotional liberation. \nBy shifting from a win/lose mindset to one of curiosity and evolution\, participants will learn how to date from wholeness — not from the shadow’s need to be seen\, saved\, or soothed. \nYou’ll learn how to: \n\nRecognize and name the shadow emotions that surface in dating\nIdentify projection\, fantasy\, and defense patterns in romantic dynamics\nTransform emotional triggers into insights for integration and healing\nReclaim your psycho-emotional space from rejection loops and idealization\nApproach dating as a sacred practice of awareness\, embodiment\, and authenticity\n\nFormat:\nInteractive talk + guided reflection exercises + group dialogue \nWho it’s for:\nThis class is for anyone who senses that dating can be more than just a search for “the one” — and that it can be a profound mirror and teacher. \nIt’s especially for: \n\nIntellectually and spiritually curious humans who love psychological depth and meaning-making\nRelationship geeks and emotional explorers who want to understand their own patterns more deeply\nQueer\, non-monogamous\, kinky\, or otherwise non-traditional daters seeking a growth-oriented framework that honors their complexity\nFree spirits who want to love and connect authentically\, without giving away their power\nAnyone tired of repetitive loops who’s ready to use dating as a site of awakening rather than reenactment\n\nNo matter your gender\, orientation\, or relational style\, this space invites honesty\, courage\, and curiosity about what dating stirs within you — and how every emotional trigger can become a doorway to greater freedom. \nPRESENTER: \nMarie Thouin\, PhD is the author of “What is Compersion? Understanding Positive Empathy in Consensually Non-Monogamous Relationships\,” the first-ever comprehensive scholarly book on compersion. She has been featured in several publications and podcasts\, including ELLE\, the Savage Lovecast\, The Times of London\, and HuffPost. Marie has also published seminal research studies\, the first encyclopedia entry on compersion\, and is the creator of www.WhatIsCompersion.com\, a popular website that features her research\, blogs\, and resources on the topic of compersion. She is the Founder of Love InSight\, a Mindful Dating & Relationship Coaching practice where she supports and guides people of all backgrounds and relational orientations to create intentional and vibrant love lives. \nTICKETING: \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/d2423e4586

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Boundaries: Mapping the Self in Community with HG Wyndell
DESCRIPTION:Clear boundaries support our personal clarity and our relationships with others. They help identify our most rooted needs\, values\, and desires. However\, our culture doesn’t always provide good models for setting healthy boundaries that serve us and our relationships. Great boundaries allow us to make more room for what we really want. \nIn this class\, we will explore: \n\nThe values and benefits of clear boundaries\nExercises to explore our relationship with boundaries\nHow to reclaim your boundaries while being inclusive\, open\, and receptive to change\nUsing boundaries to set limits and build trust\nBoundaries in the domains of our life: relationships\, personal\, privacy\, work\, etc.\nUsing personal boundaries to prepare for kink negotiations\nAnd taking accountability and impact for miscommunications and consent collisions\n\nAfter the class\, you will receive a set of exercises and journaling prompts to further explore your own boundaries based on what you’ve learned. \nCome join us. Get curious. Ask questions\, and apply your sense of wonder to the ways you interact with and at your edges. \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. We offer several price points\, so that cost is less of a barrier to attendance. \nChoose the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/0fc539244c
