Whether you want to come alone or with a partner, whether this is your first play party or been to a hundred play parties before, whether you have tried some roleplay before or not, this workshop is for you. All genders, all s*xual orientations, you are welcome.
Doors open at 9:30, we start at 10:00 and will end at 19:00.
Please come before 9:45, so we can actually keep our promise and start at 10:00.
What to expect
This day will consist of two parts: a workshop about expanding your sexual expression, followed by a play party. It’s a full day event, meaning that you cannot enter the play party without having done the workshop. For both parts count: it’s all consent based. You only have to do things you feel a YES for (or not, if that’s your spiritual practice at this moment ), and never ever ever will we force you into anything you don’t want. Having said that, please continue reading the program.
1 - Expanding your Sexual Expression
The day centers on creating awareness, acceptance, and celebrating our se*xual expression.
The ways in which we can express our s*xuality are endless. But we all have a certain groove, a particular way of expressing ourselves s*xually that feels comfortable and familiar, a way where we feel confident and capable. When we gently step out of that familiar groove and explore flavors that are less familiar, is when we get a chance to broaden our s*xual expression.
Finding new ways to enjoy your s*xuality is not just liberating and exciting for you, but also for your partners. Through guided exercises in this workshop we offer a wide range of different flavours, from slow sensual to more polarity based interactions, from light and playful to deep and intense. You’ll get a chance to sample all flavors and find out what you would like to integrate into your love making and thereby expanding your s*xual expression.
This first part of the day is an intimate workshop, where there will be space to explore (sensual) touch in a safer setting. In this part, nudity will not be allowed yet (in the play party it will be), underpants and tops stay on at all times.
This workshop is for you if you want to connect with yourself, have the option to connect with others, and explore your own wishes and boundaries.
2 - Free Flow
The second part of the day we create space for a s*x positive free flow; time and space to go freestyle. Nudity and s*xuality is possible here, you can enjoy being with others in as many ways as you want (consent-based) and put all that you learned during the workshop into practice.
Again, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want. If you want to sit & watch and be a spectator all throughout the free flow, we’ll be cheering on the sidelines. If you want to mingle and let out your slutty side, we’ll be cheering just as hard (note that we’re using the word “slut” in the most positive way one can use a word. If you’re not sure why, we highly recommend the awesome classic “The Ethical Slut” ).
This is for you when
want to explore intimacy & s*xuality and have fun, or want to challenge yourself in a safer space
might feel a little scared, or not. It’s all good, there will be sweet and loving people
have an open mind (or working on it) towards others and yourself regarding intimacy & s*xuality
take responsibility for your own wellbeing. This means that you can always voice your boundaries. We will never force you to do anything.
come as you are: any gender and s*xual orientation is welcome
are single or in a relationship (read the Partner agreements section below)
are older than 18.
This is not for you when
do not want to be in a space where intimacy and nudity is allowed.
are not respectful towards others, cross boundaries or display other behaviour that jeopardizes the safety of the group.
come to “hunt”. Leave any neediness/greediness at home. Instead, allow whatever wants to unfold arise, without expectations.
Partner agreements
Be sure to watch our video on Partner Agreements.
If you come with a partner, come in sync. Discuss whether you’ll do the exercises with others, or only with the two of you. Discuss this for the play party as well.
We strongly recommend discussing boundaries and fears beforehand. Be specific when you talk about it: what specific actions that you or the other might do could be hard for you to experience? Find an agreement that you both feel good about. Be gentle with each other.
What to bring
Don’t forget to bring the most useful thing a sex-positive human being can have: a towel. Preferably a large one. You can be naked on it, dry yourself off with it, maybe even cuddle with it. (The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy was right all along;)
Wear clothes that make you feel comfortable. If you like, you can bring a sxy outfit as well. Sexy outfit meaning: what do you feel sexy in? Whether that’s your pyjamas, your alter ego outfit or just a string and socks. There will be an opportunity to change clothes for the play party.
A nice lunch for yourself (don’t forget a plate and cutlery if you need them)
Water bottle. No open teacups in the workshop room, a bottle with a cap is welcome.
We recommend some easy snacks for the breaks. Make sure you have enough, workshops can be quite intense.
Nesting if you like (things that make you feel comfortable, like a blanket)
And bring whatever serves you in your sexual expression. Anything from toys to your favorite brand of condoms. (Standard latex condoms, latex gloves and silicone lube will be provided by us)
Tip: Be mindful of your body odour: heavy perfume can be overwhelming for others. Natural, clean scents are the best!
