To an even richer and more refined intimate relating.
Join us for a transformative day dedicated to "Opening Up" – a workshop designed for those curious about exploring the realms of intimacy and s/xuality within group settings or more intimate multi-partner explorations. This immersive experience invites you to delve into the art of communication, connection and emotional openness, setting the foundation for authentic and joyful interactions.
Throughout our day-long journey we'll delve into the art of opening up across different areas: open communication, open relating, opening our hearts and our minds!
This workshop offers a well-rounded playful and introspective experience that caters to those dipping their toes in these waters for the first time as well as those seeking to deepen their existing understanding.
It is an invitation for those who carry curiosity, enthusiasm or even just a spark of interest in exploring the multifaceted dynamics of er0tic settings with more than two in a supportive environment. Through a mix of light-hearted activities, primal play-inspired games and reflective moments, you'll have an opportunity to broaden your relational awareness and understanding.
Join us for a day that promises not only fun and games but also a deeper dive into understanding the nuances of relationships, intimacy and the art of sensµally relating to more than one. Let's explore together in a space where curiosity meets understanding, where playfulness meets depth, and where you get to craft your own unique journey into the world of open play spaces with kindness, respect and joy.
At the core of this gathering is choice and consent. Every activity is optional and you are free to sit exercises out any time you want to.
The general vibe of the day workshop is one of slowing down in a fun and an embodied relational laboratory.

✨ THE PLAY PARTY ✨
In the evening we'll continue bringing our insights into practice and play! We'll transition into the enriching world of the a free flow Play Party.
This unique space allows for the kind of expression that feels right for you in every moment, from soft and tender closeness, to bold requests, to wh!ps and b0ndage, to your meditative moment of being with yourself. Here lots can happen, yet nothing needs to happen, allowing you to flow with your newfound awareness and desires.
You can join this gathering with the complete freedom and choice to not touch anyone and stay fully clothed. It is always an option to take time by yourself.
Join us for this delightful conclusion to our 'Opening Up' workshop – a Play Party where you can experiment, unwind and celebrate your empowered self in the company of those who share your journey of self-discovery.
