Delving into Dominance is a weekend-long exploration that can includes five parts: Map of Me (Friday), Boundaries and Negotiation (Saturday), Styles of Leadership (Saturday), Archetypes and Inspiration (Sunday) and Discovering your Dominance (Sunday): Caritia invites you to shape your own learning experience. You can join for just one or two sessions or take a deep dive into all five. Each session will include both theory and practical exercises, combining individual and group work to help you develop your dominant self.
Power and dominance can take many forms and be expressed in different ways. How can you discover your own path to fulfilling your wants, desires, and needs while respecting both your boundaries and those of your play partners?
This weekend offers a space for personal exploration, where each participant is encouraged to dive into intention, responsibility, and desire—all with the goal of finding practical tools to embody and play with dominance.
Negotiation & Protocol will break down the key elements and practical steps for creating and maintaining a shared space where you and your partners can explore together while holding each other accountable. Care, health, safety, and communication styles are essential pieces of the play puzzle.

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.
Womên describes people who are identifying themselves as female in their gender identity. People that fit this category can be part of the LGBTQIA+ spectrum or not. We created this category specifically to indicate that we also invite cisgender, heterosexual womên.
The word is our own creation and serves as a replacement for the word “womxn” which is now being (ab)used for transmisogynist statements. The ^ in womên represents a marker (similar to the “x” in womxn) that wishes to give emphasis to the fact that womênhood is an intersectional umbrella term that holds many different people and experiences and is not biologically predetermined.
