These Boots are made for Walkin’

If you are planning to join the workshop alone/solo, check in if you are open to exploring this play with someone new and unknown? If this would be challenging, please aim to bring a play partner or cohort with you.

Firstly, shoes are not compulsory to participate in this workshop; they are simply an option for those who wish to explore this aspect. Bring shoes that are clean and not directly from outside. For both hygiene and floor protection purposes (Kara is a no-shoe space under normal circumstances). Sneakers, boots, and kitten heels are welcome. Ideally, no platform (soled) shoes. High heels/stilettos are permitted only for those with prior experience.

LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.

Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.

When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone's self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people's chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.

Friends don't have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
