This Week with Wicked Grounds (12/18 – 12/31)

Hello kinksters –

We hope the end of year is treating you well! While we’ll have some breaks for the holidays, we continue to offer classes right through the end of year.

And be sure to keep an eye out of next week’s newsletter! We plan to run an end of year Boxing Day sale and there will be some great deals to help you make the most out of your adventuring next year.

Already thinking about your new year’s resolutions? You might want to join your fellow kinksters for our third annual ​Month of Mindfulness for Kinksters​ in January. We’ll share a full month of meditation sessions & techniques, journaling and other self-care to start off the new year right.

Now, let’s get into what’s happening this week!

This Week!

Thursday, Dec 18 through Saturday, Dec 20

No live programming on these days, but you can always check out our video classes and other digital downloads at ​WickedGroundsAnnex.Teachable.com​.

Fort Bragg, CA: It’s not an official Wicked Grounds event, but our Miriam Green runs The Mendocino Munch for kinksters on the Mendocino coast. This month we’ll be at Tall Guy Brewing in Fort Bragg, CA from 1-3pm. This is an all-ages, family-friendly brewery with plenty of n/a options (their home brewed root beer is spectacular!). If you live in the north coast or are visiting for the holidays, come say hello! ​FetLife event listing here.​

Happy Winter Solstice!

Online: Join us online today for BDSM & Attachment Styles with Sir Panda.

Attend live or through the recording with your advanced ticketing from ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Monday, Dec 22

Online: To give, or not to give! That is the question! Join Miss Mackenzee online tonight for The Ultimate Guide for Teasing and Orgasm Control. Can’t attend live? No need to deny yourself! Our instructor records the class and will distribute a link after to all ticketed attendees. Just be sure to get your tickets through ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Tuesday, Dec 23

Online: Sometimes the best way to move forward with new year’s plans is to look back over the one that just passed. Join Sinclair Sexsmith online tonight for Your Year in Kink to create a mindful structure for your year in review. This class is offered live only, and will not be recorded. Mark your calendars and get your tickets through ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Wednesday, Dec 24 through Saturday, Dec 27

We don’t have any live classes over this period, but keep an eye out for our Boxing Day Sale with codes to be announced next week! The sale will launch Friday, Dec 26th and last through the end of year.

Sunday, Dec 28

Online: Interested in service and not sure where to start? Trying to offer or inspire service but want more inspiration? The first thing to know is that service rituals and dynamics are not one size fits all! There are a lot of styles, and finding yours is the best path to fulfillment. Join Lady V online today to explore it all in our online class Service Styles! Can’t attend live? We’ll provide a recording to all ticketed attendees. Get your tickets through ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Online: Curious about magick and the occult? The basic principles behind it all are very familiar to us as kinksters – we just need to learn how to apply what we already know! Join Miriam BatAsherah Green online today to explore it all in Sex Magick for Kinksters. Attend live or through the recording with your advanced tickets from ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Monday, Dec 29

Online: Consensual non-consent can be hot, but it requires some great communication skills and negotiation to work well. There’s probably no better teacher on this subject than vahavta, whom we’re delighted to welcome back to present today’s When No Doesn’t Mean No: Negotiation and Communication for Consensual Nonconsent. This class is not recorded; you must mark your calendars and attend live. Get your tickets through ​Forbidden Tickets​ or ​Plura​.

Tuesday, Dec 30

Online: If one of your new year’s resolutions is to create more parties, you are in luck! Join Lady V online tonight for Get This Party Started: Event Organizing & Hosting.
