There is something extraordinarily powerful in feeling and playing with consensual and voluntary pain. Why would a person want to feel pain? Why would another love to give it to someone else? How is pain and the processing of it changed depending on the context and relation it is put into?
In the workshop, Mamana will go into a deep deep deep dive into all things pain and pain play. Together we will look at what pain actually is, how it is produced and interpreted in the brain and how it is influenced by personal, biological, social, and other contextual factors you can play with. We will go into the details of why people like to give and receive pain, how you can process it, which typical impact play instruments are helpful in inducing a certain kind of painful sensation.
In short, this class will fry your brain with nerdy knowledge and allow you to think about your interest in pain play on a whole new level. Come for the facts, stay for the soul-searching of why sadomasochism is fucking delicious.
What we will discuss
- Define Pain?
- Good pain, bad pain?
- What do consent, trust and context have to do with it?
- How to receive and process pain
- How to tweak your pain play to where you want it to go
- Why the fuck are we doing this?
- many other little info tid-bits you will not see coming

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.
After your successful ticket purchase, you will be sent an email with the Zoom login data for this event. If you do not receive it, message us with your order number so we can send it again. Some email services “disappear” our messages so please check if you received our login data email.
If this session includes a recording you can obtain it by simply purchasing a ticket. You will automatically get access to the live class and the recording as they come in a package. The recording login data will be sent out 24–48h after the live event and will be available for (at least) 14 days after the live event. Please note these classes are places for experience, not for instruction. Nothing here is tested or graded — only perceived, felt, and shared. All offerings are invitations to reflect — no curriculum, no exam, no training. Recordings exist solely to support personal integration and are available only for a limited time.
Yes, because you are paying for the knowledge our facilitators distribute, not for the access to Zoom itself. We kindly ask you to respect that and pay accordingly.
