The Theory of Connecting

Building a connected and impactful BDSM session might sometimes feel like alchemy and mystic telepathic powers. It’s not. It is actually built on very concrete techniques that you can learn, practice, and become good at.

This workshop explores how to create connection and intensity in kink play. Ceci will talk about bodies, connective techniques, and narratives to give you tools to create more satisfying play sessions. The goal is to make connection feel easier and less like telepathy.

Themes can include:
• Body-mind connection: Body positions, relationships between bodies, and the influence of bodies on minds
• Deep dive into technical elements of building connection: intention, rhythm, time, and proximity
• Themes, narratives, and roles as ways for all participants to have agency in play

The workshop includes:
• Lecture content
• Writing and conversation-based exercises

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.
