SUMMARY:Kink as a Vessel for Grief
DESCRIPTION:So little space is gifted to sadness and grief; frequently\, these emotions are bypassed and sidelined. Caritia believes honoring\, acknowledging\, and releasing grief can be liberating for all aspects of your body and life. How can the practices of kink intentionally support opening up of self? Supported by the ritual container of collective gathering. \nCaritia invites participants into this collective space to speak to grief as a companion through the body\, acknowledging the challenges and choosing to sit together in compassion. \nParticipants may practice solo or in a room with others. Choosing 1 or 2 kink practices that would allow for this special moment. Caritia will guide you with exercises\, writing prompts\, and moments of pause and silence. \nIt is advised that each participant select a kink practice that they have done previously so that no one’s focus is drawn away from the grief tending we are sitting with. Participants are welcome to write to Caritia with any additional questions they may have. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  June 5th 2025\, 7 pm – 10 pm \nFormat: Discussion \nMinimum Knowledge Level: – \nWhat to Bring: ideas\, questions\, partners\, ways to keep notes \nSolo or Partnered: any constellation works. Everyone needs to buy a ticket \nClass recording: Yes. This class will be recorded (only the facilitator\, not the participants) and is available for ticket holders for 14 days after the event. \nPreparation \nParticipants are encouraged to set up their space in a way that they have all that they have nearby – snacks\, music\, toys\, or tools they wish to use. If at all possible\, an uninterrupted container can be formed\, or at least that you feel safe(r) where they are. Suggestions for kink practices – wax play (with a colored candle)\, clamps (of any size)\, needle play\, self-flagellation\, ice play\, \n  \nWhat we will explore \nBody awareness exercises \nBreath techniques and sounds \nGroup & solo intention setting \nSetting up your space \nThe colours of grief \n  \nAccessibility Note \nThe workshop and discussion are held in spoken English with automated captions in English which are provided by Zoom. Communication within the class can be had via chat but also people can come on mic and speak.

SUMMARY:The Art of Following  – Submissive Empowerment Series
DESCRIPTION:The view of submission is often one that depicts it as weakness. Someone who has no spine to stand for themselves. Caritia sees it very differently and wish to share this perspective with all who wish to embrace the power that lies within submission and surrender. \nJoin Caritia in a three-part series to break down these ideas and explore your unique path to embracing your submissive nature and holding it with care and strength. Through thoughtful discussion and playful exploration\, we’ll work towards building a deeper understanding your desires\, ways of communication and the ways you wish to connect with a top or dominant. \nPart 1: Map of Me (June 3rd\, 2025 7-9pm) In this session Caritia invites participants to go on a deep dive into themselves. Opening up to more boundary awareness\, where and how boundaries are formed and supporting more curiosity around your desires. \nPart 2: Negotiation & Structure (June 10th\, 2025 7-9pm) In this session  Caritia will offer a basic framework to build from and collaboration protocols to create a play session. Together we will geek out about communication styles\, safety\, health and connections between boundaries to each of these. \nPart 3: Submissive Embrace (June 17th\, 2025 7-9pm) In this session let’s collaborate to find your desired play session or scene. We will also look at ‘who’ of your play – meaning what type(s) of top or dom would you like to find?  \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  June 3rd\, 10th & 17th\, 2025\, 7 pm – 9 pm \nFormat: workshop \nMinimum Knowledge Level: – \nWhat to Bring: ideas\, questions\, ways to keep notes \nSolo or Partnered: any constellation works.

SUMMARY:Rope Study with Dasniya: Navigating weight lighty
DESCRIPTION:A monthly exploration of technique\, aesthetics\, and embodied experience in rope \nJoin us for our monthly Rope Study with Dasniya\, an intermediate level rope study session that blends intuitive movement\, systematic rope management\, and deepened awareness of body handling and safety. Throughout the session\, participants will have the opportunity to switch roles between tying and being tied—gaining a fuller understanding of restriction from both perspectives. Whether you are drawn to meditative ties\, sensual exploration\, or technical precision\, this class offers a space to experience rope with curiosity and care. \n  \nThis Month’s Exploration: Harness in Motion – Navigating Weight Lightly\n  \nIn this rope study class we will connect systems of consequent restriction with system of movements. Dasniya will open her vast dancers tool box to creatively expand the traditional shibari vocabulary. Rope harnesses will serve as anchor points and transform the classical top-bottom dynamic into playfully and intimately dancing with your partner in space. Note: This class is the first of a series of three classes that will explore this topic in depth. The classes build on each other but it is not obligatory to take all three of them. \nDasniya’s Rope Style\n  \nDasniya’s approach to rope is deeply influenced by the Japanese Kinbaku masters Akira Naka and Kasumi Hourai\, with whom she studied in both Europe and Japan. Further inspiration comes from the photographic work of Norio Sugiura and the legacy of Nureki Chimuo\, key figures in shaping this style. \nWhile this tying system is often regarded as advanced\, it can be adapted and taught from the ground up with regular practice\, attention to detail\, and a strong focus on safety. The method combines structured forms\, improvisational principles\, and a sensitivity to restriction\, allowing practitioners to refine their technique while developing intuitive flow. \nDasniya’s personal approach is also shaped by her dance training and Buddhist background. She views rigging through the lens of movement\, listening mindfully to impulses and resonance\, often creating a meditative and euphoric experience in rope. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  May 27th\, 2025\, 7 pm-9 pm CET (Berlin) \nFormat: hands-on rope lab \nAudience:  LGBTQIA+ & FRIENDS \nLanguage: English \nMinimum Knowledge Level: single-/double column tie\, basic frictions\, you need to be able to tie a box tie /TK\, simple up-lines \nWhat to Bring: comfortable clothes that are more tight fitting if possible\, a set of 8 of your own ropes\, safety equipment \nSolo or Partnered:  preferably partnered but you can also partner up in the class with other solo people or tie yourself (everyone needs a ticket) \nPrice: 25 Euros per person \n  \nNote: \nThe class starts at 7 pm sharp. Please arrive 15 minutes earlier so we can process your ticket and welcome you. Once the class has started we do not allow entry. You cannot transfer your ticket to another week. If you are not sure you can come\, please purchase your ticket on the day as soon as you are absolutely sure you can make it. \nIf you know you will come to our open training or rope study more than just once\, please ask for our discount card! (For every 5 classes\, the 6th class is on us!) \n  \nMandatory Covid-19 rules \nIf you would like to inform yourself about other safety measures we have in place\, please consult our Covid-19 measurements here. \n  \nAccessibility Note \nThe workshop is held in spoken English.

SUMMARY:Potato Sacks & Body Handling
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is heavy. It’s passive\, it’s hard to move and hard to lift. This is a workshop for fat bottoms. We take up space\, we give the ropes our full weight\, we stop minimizing ourself\, and we become potato sacks. Ceci will guide you in letting go and finding freedom. Technically we will explore how to give weight\, what passivity means\, and how being heavy can actually help movement and suspension. \nPartner: tba. \n  \nFormat: hands-on workshop \nMinimum knowledge level: You need to bring a person who can tie you in semi-suspension or suspension. You are able to communicate boundaries. You have some understanding of how your body functions in movement and can avoid injury through modifications and/or communication. \nMaximum amount of participants: as many as fit the space \nWhat to bring: A rope top who is able to do at least semi-suspension. Enough ropes to tie a couple of harnesses and uplines. \nConstellations: partnered\nPassive watching is allowed \nAccessibility: We will move around on the floor and it is not safe to do passive play standing up. You might end up moving around on your knees without realizing you’re doing it\, so maybe bring knee pads if it’s helpful.

SUMMARY:Embodied Tying
DESCRIPTION:Ginger will show about how they their body as a rigger with a series of beginner friendly exercises. They will cover how to maintain connection at different distances as well as how to be heavy\, close and not afraid to use your whole body. \nThere is so much stigma around touching and being touched by fat bodies. So much so that it can create a sense of distance\, tentativeness and even fear when we do rope. They will also integrate how to challenge negative self perception with open conversations about how our bodies feel when we tie together\nPartner: \n  \nFormat: hands-on workshop \nMinimum knowledge level: Single column tie\, basic rope handling \nMaximum amount of participants: as many as fit the space \nWhat to bring: around 3 ropes \nConstellations: partnered\nParticipants can passively watch \nAccessibility: Workshop is floorwork\, so no points needed
