Sharing space is something that can be fun, challenging, complex, and messy, no matter the dynamics. Creating a space for yourself as a solo individual is different from an event offered in a public setting involving 20 or 1000 people, for example, a play party or club night (or any other space). Are there cross-over...
Have you become interested in trying out Japanese-inspired rope bondage? Then join us for a weekend-long deep dive into this fascinating practice. Together we will explore the vastness of rope bondage. We will talk about its history and development, about the reasons why people like to tie and be tied. We will experience rope...
By means of ethnographically and sociologically informed research, this 3-hours workshop seeks to explore kink from various cultures across the African continent. By looking from another angle, this talk hopes to teach about sexuality from a pre-colonial and decolonial perspective and how kink might not have always been called that way, while existing for millennia,...

Dominance and submission have been bedfellows for centuries. Power play is all around us, and often we are confused by it. Playing with consensual power and power hierarchies is liberating and, when done well, freeing and empowering for all involved. Caritia sees D/s as a joyful practice of exploring desires, wants, and needs through...
Let's be playful with consent :) The general idea of consent and boundaries is often portrayed to be as simple as offering someone a cup of tea.

Caritia will...
Ceremonial cacao is a gentle connection and partnership facilitator. For some it's the chocolate deva, a divine goddess that visits you and opens your heart and allows your walls to gently get lowered, allowing feelings to emerge. For others, it's the theobromine that pure cacao contains which gently changes the way you feel and...
Let’s play with the power narrative and create new stories of empowerment. Caritia has always been drawn to the notions of power (or the lack thereof) and how this plays out within our everyday interactions. Power, empowerment, and power hierarchies are a complex dance between people’s wants, desires, and needs. How can we play with...
Take a deep big breath, unclench your jaw, and loosen your shoulders. Yes, this life is a huge challenge, so much fun but also overwhelming at times. But you made it this far! Time to allow yourself to get out of survival mode or chronic stress and come back (in)to yourself. Caritia will hold space...
Each human has unique and complex needs that it is unrealistic to expect only one person to fulfill. How does one gather energy, capacity, and awareness of what is vital to one's own well-being? Caritia will guide participants to seek answers from within and call on the supportive guides that are all around us if...
Caritia has always been curious about relating dynamics and the interplay between desire, wants, and needs. Frequently, running into the question: who are our present styles and ways of relating made for? In this discussion and lab, Caritia invites participants to deconstruct what relating is to them and ways in which to create dynamics that...
