In this program you’re invited to:
Cultivate safety in your body
Playfully explore your desires
Tap into your erotic energy
Come together in community on a journey of pleasure discovery & research.
pleasure playground is for the curious, the exhausted, the s3xpressed, the kinky, the vanilla, the confused, the playful, and the stuck-as-fuck .
Want a taste of what’s to come?
During our time together we will have group exercises and individual exploration. The group is leveraged as a way to build kinship & provide safety in mirroring our individual journeys in the spirit of play, exploration & discovery.
Our basic flow:
We begin and close each gathering in circle, cultivating community helps foster a transformational experience that builds kinship, inspires, & supports.
After our opening circle & storytelling you will be guided through tantric practices involving movement/breath work/meditation. This will be an opportunity to sink into your body and experience how breath, movement, and sound can be used to generate heat and sensations in the body.
There will be a 2 hour break to do what you desire - have brunch, go for a walk, take a nap, read, relax, hang in Refuge, etc. This is your time for living in your pleasure.
Our last 2 hours will be spent in a pleasure lab where there will be group & partnered exercises designed for you to connect to your body and your pleasure. These are clothes-on experiences that are fun and playful ways to explore what we like, how we like it, how to ask for it, and how to receive it.

While my trainings have been trauma informed I am not a counselor or therapist. My work is informed by my own trauma in relationship to my body and years of learning different modalities to heal my trauma and be in deeper relationship with my body. I am happy to recommend a therapist or body work practitioner for one on one work in this area.

I cannot guarantee anyone’s safety but I do believe in creating safer spaces through engaging in co-creating community agreements and encouraging consent-based activities. When harm happens, I will respond with care whenever possible. Sometimes that looks like taking a moment to call it out and pause, and other times it may be appropriate to call in or give space.

I love cis-men but this is not the container for them. Why? So many people that I have talked to about their bodies and their relationship to pleasure have blocks or trauma caused by cis-men, myself included.
This is a container for deep exploration and cultivating safety in the body and quite simply I find that challenging to do with cis-men in the room. Don't worry men, you can work with me 1:1 and I hope to collaborate with another facilitator to bring a group offering that is for men.

This container centers both the individual and the group experience. Wherever possible affinity groups will be used to support creating safer spaces around shared identity when it comes to our relationship with our bodies.
