This Week with Wicked Grounds (5/1 – 5/11)
May 1, 2025Hello kinksters –
A very happy May Day to all! Whether you’re dancing around a maypole, gathering May flowers, marching for worker’s rights, or all of the above, we are here for you!
I’m personally excited to spend time this Sunday hosting an all-day event to get back in our bodies and claim resilient feminine energy. If you’re in the Bay Area and this work calls to you, you can find out more here.
If you’re an educator or aspiring educator looking for strategies to get through these very weird times, perhaps you’d like to join us for our annual Kink Class Incubator, which will launch on Monday, 5/5 through our site on Teachable. We’d love to have you join us.
This week!
Thursday 5/1
Hurray! Hurray! It’s the first of May! Outdoor shenanigans start today!
Join us tonight online at 6pm for Compersion in Non-Monogamy: Myths, Realities, and Possibilities with Marie Thouin. This class can be watched live or later by recording. Get your advanced tickets through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
Friday 5/2
No live classes tonight, but you can get our digital downloads and video classes or even explore one on one coaching at Wicked Grounds Annex.
Saturday 5/3
Curious about exploring the world of classes, munches, play parties, maybe even one of those outdoor kinky camping adventures? Join us today for Welcome to the Public Kink Scene with Miriam Green starting at 11am Pacific. Get your advanced tickets through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
Sunday 5/4
Almost all parts of the body are ripe targets for BDSM play. Why not the hair and scalp? Join us online this morning for Fatal Follicles: Hair Pulling for Harlots! with Lady V and learn how to do hair-pulling right for sensation play and control. This online class will be recorded, so you can watch live or see the recording later in the week, as long as you have advanced tickets first. Get yours through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
If you’re in San Francisco, and want to get much more in touch with your embodied resilience and power, consider joining us for the The Embodied Feminine Daylong Intensive (by Click Your Heels). This daylong workshop is appropriate for anyone who wants to get in touch with their own sense of feminine energy. Please read the ticketing in detail to see if this work calls to you! Details and ticketing through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
Monday 5/5
Getting started as a kink and BDSM educator? Or perhaps you’re a long-time educator looking for more inspiration on how to develop and market your classes? Today is the first day of our annual five-week Kink Class Incubator! Join us for the one class each year that is most likely to pay for itself. 😉 This five-week journey is ticketed through and administered at our Wicked Grounds Annex site on Teachable.
Tuesday 5/6
No live classes today.
Wednesday 5/7
If you are in San Francisco, join us for the most fun you can have on a Wednesday night! It’s SpankLab! hosted by impossiblepain. Every month, we explore hands-on strategies for impact play. Whether you are brand new, or come out each month because this is where you know you’ll find your regular play crew, you are welcome to join us for this first-of-its-kind peer-led impact play workshop. Advanced ticketing is recommended. You may get yours through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
Thursday 5/8 and Friday 5/9
No live classes tonight, but you can get our digital downloads and video classes or even explore one on one coaching at Wicked Grounds Annex.
Saturday 5/10
Curious about D/s but not sure where to start, or how to get the most of it? This is your weekend!
Join us at 11am Pacific for Sarah Butcher, joining us all the way from the UK to present An Introduction to Submission. You’ll learn all the basics of how to engage in safe, hot, consensual D/s play. This class is open to people on both sides of the slash who want a deeper understanding of submission. Get advanced tickets through Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
