The power of breath is unmeasurable and powerful.
In this one day in-person workshop participants are invited to explore breath play from an intentional and boundaried perspective, the inter-play of control and trust.
Caritia will offer/demonstrate 4-5 different breath play techniques, leaving time for participants to play solo or with others. The day will be grounded in the foundational structures of safety, health and basic structure that can be adapted to each player’s needs and risk profile.
What to Bring: questions, an open mind to listen, comfortable clothing, a scarf or two, a container large enough to place your face/head in (for water)
What we will teach/offer you
- meditation
- boundaries and negotiation
- care, safety and health
- finding your play style and intention
- more than using hands and time
- feedback and close
NOTE: Participants are asked to arrive 20 minutes before the workshop to take a COVID test. Karada House provides the test, which must be done on-site. This is at the request of a vulnerable community member, and Caritia will honour this request.

More Information
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.
