SUMMARY:Oil & Flesh Ritual
DESCRIPTION:This is an immersive sensual group ritual that’s somewhere between a cuddle puddle and an orgy. Naked\, laying down\, blindfolded\, and covered from head to toe in warm coconut oil.. You’ll be guided to touch your own and other’s bodies with slowness and presence. You’ll be encouraged to drop stories of desirability and melt into the pool of soft bodies. \nCurious about how it’ll happen? \nWe will begin the session by establishing clear boundaries and designated safety words & gestures. Almond will also demonstrate and guide you through practicing your yes’s and no’s.\nYou’ll then be invited to disrobe and blindfold\, then guided onto the cushioned tarp where the magic will happen.\nOn a cushioned tarp\, you’ll be assisted to lay closely side-by-side.\nOnce the warm oil has been poured onto your bodies\, you’ll be invited to start moving and touching your own body. Slowly\, you’ll be invited to explore the beings beside you.\nWhile sensuality and eroticism are welcome\, penetration (of any kind) is not. You’re invited to reach for nearby bodies with the back of your hands and limbs\, but never to grab or hold.\nYou’re welcome to come out of the experience at any moment and a facilitator will help you come out.\nWe will end with collective aftercare and integration. \nClean-up \nBe prepared to be completely covered in coconut oil\, including your blindfold and hair!\nTo respect the house\, anyone coming off the tarp after having oil on them needs to be fully clothed with fresh socks (no oil on the floors\, pretty please). Therefore\, please come prepared with several socks\, towels\, and clothes that will come in contact with oil left over on your skin. \nRisks involved \nWe want you to make a risk-informed decision about your participation in such a ritual.\n– While there is no genital contact in the pit\, there is still the risk of STI transmission through the oil.\n– While the space holders are watching diligently to ensure the space guidelines and consent practices are being followed – we can’t see everything at all times.\n– We are all humans with histories\, traumas\, and baggage. This ritual is highly immersive and can open doors to big emotions. For some\, this is a very edgy and intense experience. \nPreparation \n– For hygiene\, we must ask that you let us know if you have any transferrable skin-to-skin infections. There are ways we can modify the practice for you to participate.\n– Please do not join if you’re feeling physically unwell\, or have an active transmittable STI or an open wound.\n– For slippery safety\, this ritual happens sitting and lying. If these aren’t accessible for you\, please reach out to explore accommodations.\n– Please shower before coming.\n– Trim your nails.\n– Brush your teeth.\n– Use minimal scented products.\n– Wash off estrogen and testo gel. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time: August 17th\, 2024 – 7 pm-12 am \nFormat: ritual \nAudience: LGBTQIA+ & WOMÊN \nKnowledge Level:\nMust have solid comfort expressing ‘no’ with safe words and gestures. \nWhat to bring: a blindfold\, 2 towels\, 2 pairs of socks\, and clothes you’re comfortable getting oily \nLanguage: English \nSolo or Partnered: all constellations welcome \nPrice: 40 Euros per person \n  \nWhat will happen \n-1.5 hours: intro\, agreements\, consent practice \n-20 minutes: personal prep \n-1.45 hours: in oil (give or take\, depending on the energy) \n-15 minutes re-dress \n-1 hour: integration exercise/space \n  \nSafety Concept & Regulation\nPlease consult our safety concept and regulations for this event here. \n  \nAccessibility Note\nThis ritual happens on a cushioned tarp on the floor. Participants must stay laying or sitting down (as standing in oil is too dangerous). Please reach out to Almond if this is an accessibility issue for you\, and we can discuss how to accommodate. Oil & Flesh is facilitated in spoken English. German can also be provided. The space\, KARA\, is on the ground floor but has three steps to enter the house. A ramp for wheelchairs is available at all times. There is also a parking space available right in front of the door if needed. KARA has an accessible bathroom available.

SUMMARY:Kink Camp 4 Fat Folx
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to 3-days of sensual\, kinky\, cuddly\, and playful connection for fat people\, only. \nFacilitated by 3 fat facilitators\, Kink Camp is a space for us to explore our sensual\, erotic\, and kinky selves within the comforts of a fat-only community. You can expect fun workshops\, delicious food\, and delightful play spaces. \nWhile there’s space to talk about and explore the political and cultural intersections of our fat bodies\, it’s not the objective of the weekend to theorize and deep-dive. We want to open this space where our fatness isn’t necessarily the topic of our gathering\, but rather a unifying embodiment community. \nWe open this invitation to self-identified fat folx. We’ve chosen to omit clothing sizes as the ‘cut off’ is quite culturally specific. This space is for folx who experience institutionalized fatphobia. If you’re unsure as to whether or not this applies to you\, please consider: \nDo you experience fatphobia in kink spaces?\nCan you purchase clothing in ‘straight size’ shops?\nDo you experience fatphobia in medical settings? \nIf you’d like further guidance\, reach out. We’re happy to help! \n  \nFriday\, August 9th: Getting to know each-other \nFriday evening we will meet at Karada House and take time to get to know each other. We will introduce the program and will do some warm-up exercises so we can get more acquainted with each other. There will be snacks! \n  \nSaturday\, August 10th: Luscious Sensations \nOn Saturday\, we focus on erotically playful sensations.We will introduce nervous system regulation\, massage\, rope\, soft kink and sensation play. Our day will end with a cute cheeky play space to explore our pleasure and curiosities. \n  \nSunday\, August 11th: Kindling Fire \nOn Sunday\, we will dive deeper into juicy eroticism and kink. More yum\, ouch\, ouuuu\, ahhhh! There will be self-touch\, impact play and fantasies. We shall end with a fantastically wild play party! \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time: August 9th\, 2024 – 7-10 pm\, August 10-11\, 2024 – 11 am – 9 pm \nFormat: Kink Camp \nAudience: self-identified fat people (please see our description above) \nKnowledge Level: all! You’re welcome here no matter your experience level in sex or kink. We do ask\, however\, that you take personal responsibility for what you do and do not engage in. We will offer you consent and negotiation tools\, and encourage you to honor your boundaries and desires. \nWhat to bring: pleasure bundle (toys\, lube\, oil\, barriers); wellness bundle (pain relief tools\, stimming tools\, mobility aids\, emotional supports); journal; comfort foods; things you like to sit on/with (chair\, pillow\, blanket\, etc) \nLanguage: English \nSolo or Partnered: all constellations welcome \nPrice: 200 Euros per person includes 2 meals\, snacks and drinks \n  \nSafety Concept & Regulation \nPlease consult our safety concept and regulations for this event here. \n  \nAccessibility Note \nKink Camp is held in spoken English.

SUMMARY:Oil & Flesh Ritual
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis is an immersive sensual group ritual that’s somewhere between a cuddle puddle and an orgy. Naked\, laying down\, blindfolded\, and covered from head to toe in warm coconut oil.. You’ll be guided to touch your own and other’s bodies with slowness and presence. You’ll be encouraged to drop stories of desirability and melt into the pool of soft bodies. \nCurious about how it’ll happen? \nWe will begin the session by establishing clear boundaries and designated safety words & gestures. Almond will also demonstrate and guide you through practicing your yes’s and no’s.\nYou’ll then be invited to disrobe and blindfold\, then guided onto the cushioned tarp where the magic will happen.\nOn a cushioned tarp\, you’ll be assisted to lay closely side-by-side.\nOnce the warm oil has been poured onto your bodies\, you’ll be invited to start moving and touching your own body. Slowly\, you’ll be invited to explore the beings beside you.\nWhile sensuality and eroticism are welcome\, penetration (of any kind) is not. You’re invited to reach for nearby bodies with the back of your hands and limbs\, but never to grab or hold.\nYou’re welcome to come out of the experience at any moment and a facilitator will help you come out.\nWe will end with collective aftercare and integration. \nClean-up:\nBe prepared to be completely covered in coconut oil\, including your blindfold and hair!\nTo respect the house\, anyone coming off the tarp after having oil on them needs to be fully clothed with fresh socks (no oil on the floors\, pretty please). Therefore\, please come prepared with several socks\, towels\, and clothes that will come in contact with oil left over on your skin. \n  \nFormat: ritual \nMinimum knowledge level: –\n \nMaximum amount of participants: – \nWhat to bring:  Blindfold\, towels\, and socks you’re comfortable getting full of oil\n \nConstellations: solo \nCan I watch?  no \nAccessibility:  Since you will be covered in coconut oil\, I ask participants to stay lying or seated on the ground – which is a padded surface with a tarp overtop. If this isn’t accessible\, please please please reach out beforehand. We will find a way for you to participate in a way that’s accessible and meaningful for you. We will use coconut oil.

SUMMARY:Skin Deep – Erotic Body Mapping
DESCRIPTION:  \nConsent 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. \n  \nFormat: hands-on workshop \nMinimum knowledge level: – \nMaximum amount of participants: – \nWhat 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) \nConstellations: all constellations welcome \nCan I watch?  yes \nAccessibility: 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.

SUMMARY:Chronic Pain x Sexuality
DESCRIPTION:It’s so valid and common to have a complex relationship to sexuality\, which can be amplified by pain. We might feel exhausted\, afraid\, uncertain\, overwhelmed\, curious\, adventurous\, or even joyed by the connection of our pain to our sexuality.  Regardless of where you are in that journey\, you are welcome in this space. This workshop is for folx who experience chronic pain\, our partners & our allies to hold and explore these complexities. \nAlmonds intention for this workshop is to hold space for the exploration of chronic pain at the intersection of sexuality & intimacy – in our own bodies and in the bodies of people we love. We will arrive in gentle embodiment with a collective poem. We will chat about disability justice\, de-centering normative sex practices\, expanding ideas of climax & moving through difficult emotions we may experience about our bodies and our sexuality. We will share strategies and turn-ons. Almond will guide you in a short erotic self-pleasure practice. And we will end with some journaling. It will be filled with deep respect for all of the ways we each arrive at sexuality within this common thread of chronic pain. \nThis workshop is a repetition of the workshop that was hosted by Karada during the About: Sexual Identities conference. \n  \nEvent Details \nDate & Time:  June 9\, 2020\, 7pm-9pm CET (Berlin time) \nFormat: discussion / demonstration \nAudience:  LGBTQIA+ & FRIENDS \nLanguage: English \nMinimum Knowledge Level: There’s no pre-requisite of any kind.
