Skin Deep – Erotic Body Mapping

28. June 2024, 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm

 

Consent starts with you. So, let’s meet our bodies, fantasies, needs, and boundaries before diving into the weekend. This is a space to find glimmers of clarity about your erotic self, both in solo and group practices. We’ll begin with an individual somatic body mapping practice that will equip you with a colorful hand-drawn map of your yes’s, no’s and maybe’s. We’ll then create groups of 5 in which each person will have time to negotiate and experience the touch of their fantasies. All with the intention of meeting ourselves, you’ll be invited to ask for what you want, decide if you want to give, and explore how it all fits into your body map.

 

Format: hands-on workshop

Minimum knowledge level:

Maximum amount of participants: –

What to bring:  Nervous system items (anything that helps you feel safe like essential oils, special blanket, tea, crystals, etc.), Pleasure items (toys and tools you’d like to ask others to use on you during your turn at the center of the group)

Constellations: all constellations welcome

Can I watch?  yes

Accessibility: Both solo and group practices will have an emphasis on addressing your needs first, including your accessibility needs. There will always be options to sit, stand, lay and move around. We will have ample mattresses, cushions and props to support your body. These practices do involve guided embodiment, which isn’t always a safe experience for everyone. You are always at choice and are encouraged to say no, take a break and leave anytime.
