What does it mean to be a little mean? How can sadism become playful, connective, attentive, or even tender?
This workshop invites participants to explore the quieter, subtler, and more personal expressions of sadism beyond intensity alone. Together, we will investigate how teasing, tension, anticipation, discomfort, control, humour, and unusual impulses can support play, intimacy, and connection in ways that feel authentic to you.
Caritia will guide participants through discussion, reflection, and collaborative exploration around the topic of s/m, encouraging curiosity, communication, and personal agency within play. Participants will be invited to experiment with one or two practical exercises and playful frameworks, exploring how different approaches to sadism can shift dynamics, sensation, trust, and relational presence.
This workshop is less about performing a role and more about discovering your own language of play — whether mischievous, caring, awkward, intense, creative, or strange. Participants can expect a space centred on exploration, consent, experimentation, and finding new ways to connect through intentional play.
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.
