Kinky and Curious

This introductory day-long workshop is for anyone who is new to kink and curious about exploring its many topics and tools. We will approach this with an emphasis on consent, awareness, and care for ourselves and our partners. You will also learn practical skills to feel more confident in your relationship with kink.

We will talk about navigating boundaries, negotiation, and consent in a BDSM context. We will think about desire and how to communicate our wants and needs. There will be the chance to explore practical skills and feel and try out some different toys and tools. As well as a chance for our kinky questions to be thought about and discussed in an open and curious space.

Safety Concept & Regulation

Please consult our safety concept and regulations for this event here.

Who is this event for?

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 describes 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 safe(r) 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 pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
