Let’s give ourselves permission to let go of tension, stress, anxiety, sadness, anger, and fear and embrace relaxation, self-care, change, creativity and expansion.
Caritia invites participants to explore the dimensions of self-expression and kink in this workshop, where rituals of release will be interlaced with the creative connection. Spontaneous individualized rituals will be formed through the day’s practice hands-on exercises and using kink practices which include the full spectrum of our senses. We will come together to hold and create space for all that wishes to be let go.
Note this practice we will be doing are solo in nature, with group support.

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,
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.
