Sensual Cuddles

Sensual Cuddle Evening
a held space for cozy connection, soft sensuality & consent

We invite you to an evening designed to help you slow down, soften, and connect – gently, and consciously.

This space offers two different areas so everyone can find the level of touch and intimacy that feels right for them:

Two Areas & Two Energies:
• Cuddle Zone: A cozy, grounding place for warm, non-sexual cuddles, gentle closeness, and relaxation.
• Sensual Zone: A space where touch can become more sensual — making out, sensual cuddling, intimate closeness but no exchange of body fluids.

There is only facilitation or guided exercises at the begining. Instead, the space is softly held through clear agreements, a gentle environment, and community care.

If you need support or feel uncomfortable at any point, you can speak to the person wearing a flower crown.

• LGBTQIA* people centered and allies are welcome.
• Bring cozy things: onesie, blankets, pillows, socks — anything that helps you feel comfortable. (there will be pillows and a few blaekts)

We look forward to sharing a soft, sensual, and cozy evening with you.

Agreements

Consent:
Always ask for consent – verbal or nonverbal – before any touch.

Choose your zone intentionally:
• Cuddle Zone = soft, affectionate, non-s*xual touch
• Sensual Zone = sensual closeness and making out welcome (within boundaries)

No se* / no fluids:
No g3nital touch, no intercourse, and no exchange of body fluids in any form.

Respect every “no”:
A “no,” “not right now,” or “stop” ends the interaction immediately 

Self-responsibility & communication:
Share your boundaries, needs, and limits openly. You can always pause, shift, or change your mind. No pressure – You never have to cuddle, kiss, or engage with anyone. Your needs & boundaries comes first.

Confidentiality:
Stories stay here. Respect each other’s privacy

Community, Self, Pleasure, Celebration.

Inviting, illuminating, empowering, challenging, revealing, freeing, energising, nurturing, normalising, affirming, honouring….. and more.

In this choreographed ceremony we can move between different roles, experiment and try ourselves out. Celebrate with others your body, your genitals, your lust and your arousal. Slip into the role of an exhibitionist or voyeur or watch the goings-on as a witness from the outside. Clothing, nudity and masturbation are welcome.

The ceremony provides a powerful opportunity to increase your sense of self acceptance.  There is a opportunity for gaining confidence in managing your boundaries.


The 3 Circles Ceremony was developed by Joseph Kramer and delivered by the Institute of Somatic Sexology, and uses 3 circular areas to represent 3 different aspects of participation.

There is an the outside circle in which to be still and support the group. The second circle is an area to individually explore your own sexual and sensual nature. The centre is an area in which to interact with others if you choose. This physical delineation of areas gives visible form to the agreements we make regarding the nature of each space. 

What you can get from the ceremony:

*A greater acceptance and appreciation of your own physical body
*A higher level of comfort in setting and expressing your personal boundaries
*An increased ease and confidence in saying no
*An environment to explore aspects of your sexuality that may otherwise have difficulty being expressed
*An increased understanding of where you might find it difficult to be true to yourself
*A freedom in having permission to celebrate yourself as a sensual and sexual person.

 

What we offer:
*Non-judgemental and inclusive facilitation so all feel welcome
*Clear rules and guidelines regarding what is and isn’t appropriate within the workshop, so that participants feel safe and respected
*Get-to-know-you activities
*Exercises in which to experience what it is to communicate and respect each others needs and boundaries
*An opportunity to let go of external trappings / clothing and allow yourself to be seen
*Clearly delineated physical spaces which allow you to choose the level at which you participate
*An environment in which you can explore your body, your choices, your preferred level of sharing touch and human interaction
*This is an opportunity to celebrate, and have fun being, the unique sexual being that is yourself. 

What you take away from it, is as individual as you.

 The event is clothing optional.

You will need to bring either a sarong and towel or 2 towels to sit / lie on. 

Some massage oil or lube if you have special needs.

 Participants are free to explore their sexuality with or without physical interaction with others and with or without clothing.

You are encouraged to interact only to the level you choose.

RAW Ecstatic Dance 

A Journey into Embodied Presence 

Move. Unravel. Express

A night to peel off layers — of tension, expectation and clothing  (if you like) — and let your body take the lead. — and let your body move you.

This is a naked (or half-naked) ecstatic dance journey into presence. No mirrors. No performance. (Almost) no fabric.

Just breath, rhythm, and whatever’s alive in you. Just your raw body & skin in motion. 

Let your body lead. Let the music carry you. Let it get messy, wild, soft, real.
This is not a show. It’s a ritual of movement, release, and sensual freedom.

Finding Queer Casual S e x  

Looking for a fellow unicorn, slutdragon,or curious adventurer?

 Next Saturday Sargfabrik transforms into the fairytale you’ve been waiting for.

A playful, consent-based space to explore queer casual s e xual (or non-s e xual) connections.

This workshop has two parts:

Part 1 – The Toolbox

We start with some (self-)reflection and build a toolbox for casual s e x and connection:

• where and how to meet people

• how to approach someone respectfully

• how to communicate desire

• expressing attraction without being creepy

• talking about boundaries & s e xual health

We’ll also reflect on how casual connection can feel different for gay, bisexual, cis, trans, nonbinary, queer and straight people, and how polyamory, open relating, or monogamy shape the way we meet others.

Part 2 – The Playground

In the second part we will create a playful exploration of flirting, kissing, cruising, cuddling and sharing. Like on a market place there will be different stations where you can get to know people in the desired way. ( Kissing Booth, Cuddle Puddle, Safer S e x Conversation corner, Soft Cruising Area, Authentic Relating Corner, Mystery Touch Box)

I aim to use inclusive, non-binary language and create a welcoming space for all genders and relationship styles.

The workshop is queer-centered and poly-inclusive, while respectful allies are warmly welcome. Everything that happens is optional, consent-based, and at your own pace.

You can always pause, observe, or take a break outside.

Let’s create a fairytale together, where we meet magical strangers, practice expressing desires, and maybe discover a unicorn, wild dragon, or cuddle elf along the way.

What better way to start the day than with some embodied self-love?

Join us for “Embodied SelfLove,” a workshop designed to create a safeR space where you can explore self-touch, movement, breath, and sound. This workshop is an opportunity to delve into your body, discover what feels good, and truly listen to your needs and desires. In this communal setting, you can celebrate your sensuality. You can break down and expand the concept of selflove itself. Whether you prefer soft, sensual caressing or more vigorous forms of self-pleasure. As you want Come and discover the transformative power of embracing your body and nurturing your sensual self in the presence of a supportive community.

Why Self-Touch in Community?

 

Our society often imposes cultural messages that instill feelings of guilt and shame surrounding masturbation. Our aim is to shift that narrative and promote the normalization of self-pleasure. We strive to create an environment where we can cultivate a loving and respectful connection with our bodies and genitals. By embracing this space where we can witness and be witnessed as erotic beings. It is common for us to rush through experiences or focus solely on achieving release when it comes to self-pleasure. In this ritual, we invite you to slow down, take your time, and be fully present with yourself. Instead of chasing a quick climax, we encourage a deeper exploration of your body and sensations. It’s an opportunity to savor each moment, to be fully present in the pleasure and connection with yourself. By embracing this mindful approach, you can discover new depths of self-discovery, pleasure, and self-love.

 

Participants have the freedom to explore their sexuality, with or without physical interaction, and with or without clothing. The focus is on individual choice and comfort levels. You will only touch yourself. 

The Concept was developed by Joseph Kramer and delivered by the Institute of Somatic Sexology, as Orgasmic Yoga.

🥰 What exactly happens at the Selflove workshop?

The Self-Love Workshop offers a beautiful and transformative experience where we embrace self-pleasure, playfulness, sensuality, and pleasure in a safeR and supportive environment. 

Arriving: We gather together and begin by shaking our bodies and dancing to two songs, allowing ourselves to fully arrive in our bodies and set a positive and open intention for the workshop.

Opening Circle: Saying your Name and pronoun we will agree to the 3 C s  Workshop Agreements – Consent, Care, & Confidentiality

Creating Your Nest: You are invited to create your own personalized self-pleasure nest. If you feel drawn to it, you can bring toys or objects to explore different sensations and enhance your experience. I offer the option to explore new toys from my personal collection you can borrow.

Guided Self-Love Ritual: With music playing, I will guide you through a 45-minute self-love ritual. You have the freedom to touch every part of your body, including your genitals. I encourage you to embrace playfulness, sensuality, and pleasure, allowing yourself to dive deep into the experience.

Integration and Stillness: We conclude the ritual by integrating the experience in stillness, providing a space for reflection and grounding. This allows you to absorb the sensations and emotions that arose during the ritual.

Closing Circle: We gather again to share our experiences, insights, and any reflections we wish to express

During the workshop, you have the freedom to choose whether to keep your eyes open or closed and to dress as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. You can also cover yourself with a blanket if it enhances your sense of privacy and intimacy. Please note that participants will not be touching one another execept in the 3 Circles Edition. There is the possibility to try out new toys ( which I bring from my personal collection ) or bring your own.

Nudity is fully optional and welcomed if it aligns with your comfort level

You can touch every part of your body, including your genltals. I encourage you to dive deep into playfulness, sensuálity and pleasure.
🔸 One beautiful Testimonial we got about this Workshop:
“Thinking I knew everything I could know about touching myself, I attended the Self Love workshop with Janina. Her careful holding of the space and constant encouragement to explore the unexplored, led me to a breakthrough in my own understanding of my body – allowing me to run along the edge of orgasm for longer than I thought was possible. Not only did this enhance my own pleasure, but also immediately added to the richness of sex with my partner. I am so grateful I took the risk to attend!” — M, Selfove Workshop 2023

The Art of Joining 

How do I approach someone in a sex-positive space?

How can I join a moment — whether two or more people are cuddling, massaging, or already in deeper intimacy — with consent, respect, clarity, and courage?

In this workshop we take three hours to explore, and practice together. You will learn and embody ways of approaching others that feel good for all involved: direct, playful, clear, and always rooted in consent.

Through somatic awareness, guided exercises, and structured role-plays you will:

  •  Connect with your own needs and boundaries before reaching out to others
  •  Practice verbal and non-verbal ways of asking and saying no or yes
  •  Explore how to respectfully approach existing connections without disrupting them
  •  Experience the gift of giving and receiving clear answers
  •  Build courage and confidence to navigate sex-positive spaces

This workshop is for anyone curious about joining and being joined — whether you are new to sex-positive culture or already experienced and want to refine your skills.

The workshop also offers concrete tips and tools to support neurodiverse participants in navigating these spaces with more ease.

All practices are invitational. You choose your level of participation at any time. You don’t need a partner to join — come solo or with friends.

Sensation Play

What happens when we slow down and really pay attention to sensation?

How does it feel to be touched with something soft, rough, warm, cold, ticklish, sharp, heavy or unexpected? What changes when a sensation becomes more intense, or when it becomes almost unnoticeably subtle? And how can we communicate what we enjoy, what we are curious about, and what we would like to change?

Sensation Play is a guided workshop for exploring touch, bodily sensations and connection in a playful and curious way.

Throughout the workshop, we will experiment with a variety of different materials, textures and tools and explore the different sensations they can create on the body. 

We will start gently, with time to arrive in the space and connect with ourselves and the group. From there, we will move into different exercises and connection games that help us explore giving, receiving, communicating and playing with different levels of intensity.

For the longer touch exploration, we will form small groups of around four people. In each round, one person gets to receive while the others offer different sensations. After around 10 minutes, we rotate, so everyone who wants to has the opportunity to receive.

You are always in charge of your own participation. You can choose which exercises you want to join, what parts of your body you are comfortable including, which tools you want to experience and with whom.

Watching, taking a break, changing your mind or sitting something out are always possible.

The workshop is not explicitly sexual, but it is sex-positive and there may be sensuality, intimacy and different levels of undress depending on people’s individual choices and boundaries.

You can come alone, with a partner, partners, friends or other people you already know.

You don’t need to bring someone to participate.

Teenage dry hump party –

WHAT  COMES TO YOUR MIND WHEN YOU READ IT – Take a moment to reminisce about the golden era when foreplay stole the spotlight! Clothes stayed on, but the temperature rose as legs engaged in a symphony of sensuality. Remember those nights when penetration seemed like a distant galaxy, yet things got delightfully wet and steamy? Well, buckle up because this Dry Hump Party is here to resurrect those unforgettable moments! 

Gather with fabulous humans to celebrate the fine art of flirtation and teasing. We’re talking, kissing, making out, and, of course, -humping. One rule to rule them all: let’s keep the Pants on.

Take a moment to read this Invitation carefully. This event is all about informed consent – to then make it extra spicy! 

Wondering what awaits you at this legendary soirée? Imagine a big Space with sprawling mattresses, for some nonsexual cuddling, some for sensual interactions, and a dance floor to shake out some of those pent-up feelings. It’s a party that’s all about connection, nostalgia, and a generous sprinkle of cheeky charm!

There are no expectations for participants to engage in sexual or sensual activities with anyone. Think of it as a makeout Orgy, where some may desire to connect with multiple individuals (within personal boundaries, of course), while others may prefer to connect with just one person or simply cuddle. Each individual is encouraged to honor their own desires and boundaries throughout the experience.

Letting Go

Emotional Release & Integration

Join us for an intimate and transformative evening dedicated to emotional release. The Intention is to let go frustration of 2025 and maybe the anger that built up during the Christmas time and over this whole year. 

Together, we’ll explore guided exercises and introspective techniques, creating space for the release of pent-up feelings and integration through various methods like collages, art, journaling, and somatic expression.

We’ll transition into our Letting Go Circle, a supportive community fostering somatic expression through our bodies, sounds, and movements—a space for compassion, release, and transformation.

Join us for an emotional journey encompassing guided meditation, moments of artistic expression, a somatic letting go circle, and reflective journaling or sharing.

Let’s discover the transformative power of letting go and integrating in a nurturing environment, together.

TESTIMONIALS

I was curious about exploring new Sensations that give me pleasure but I found so much more! The Workshop gave me such proud and powerful Feelings and encouraged me to accept and love myself so that I can make myself Happy and don’t need to be dependent on others. By this, I am gifted with awesome, powerful, game-changing tools to fight loneliness. 

Testimonial – Selflove Workshop 2022

Janina created and held a beautiful space for us, where equally lustful and deeply loving connections could flourish. I am living polyamorously for a few years now, but I was never able to delve into such an infinite pool of pleasure. The space enabled a life-changing experience for me. Thank you.
by M.

Testimonial – The 4 Element Sensual Orgy

 

I thought you were an amazing facilitator and I was absolutely amazed by how you managed the space and made me feel very comfortable. This was my first orgy and I was a bit hesitant at the beginning but your introduction and the slowly build-up exercises were really helpful and made me much more confident. I loved the concept of the four elements and I think it made a great introduction exercise to build op the connection people had. I also loved how you addresses saf(er) sex because this is something I find difficult to address and you made me feel at ease with addressing this with my partners. A lot of love and appreciation for the workshop.

by R.


Testimonial – The 4 Element Sensual Orgy

 

Janina is serious and playful at the same time so that I felt really safe to explore new interests, rely on my own boundaries and being playful, curious and open about Things I have never thought of before.
I Had beautiful Moments with strangers and the Parallel Universe encouraged me to be Brave and ask for what I want in a safe environment but most Game-Changing Moments were not the sexy, Juicy, playful experiences but the reflecting on myself, the learning and personality Growth that I gained through Janina’s Work.
Truly Game-Changing – Not only for your sex life but so much more.

💞 Embodied Selflove 💞 – 25.05.2023

  FLINTA Edition

What better way to end the day than with some embodied self-love?

Join us for “Embodied SelfLove,” a workshop designed to create a safeR space where you can explore self-touch, movement, breath, and sound. This workshop is an opportunity to delve into your body, discover what feels good, and truly listen to your needs and desires. In this communal setting, you can celebrate your sensuality. You can break down and expand the concept of selflove itself. Whether you prefer soft, sensual caressing or more vigorous forms of self-pleasure. As you want Come and discover the transformative power of embracing your body and nurturing your sensual self in the presence of a supportive community.

FLINTA EDITION:
This workshop is open to individuals of all body types, and specifically caters to those who identify as Female, Lesbians, Inter, Nonbinary, Trans, and Agender.

Please note that cisgender men will not be allowed to participate in this edition.

 What Can You Expect at the Self-Love Workshop?

The Self-Love Workshop offers a beautiful and transformative experience where we embrace self-pleasure, playfulness, sensuality, and pleasure in a safeR and supportive environment. 

Arriving: We gather together and begin by shaking our bodies and dancing to two songs, allowing ourselves to fully arrive in our bodies and set a positive and open intention for the workshop.

Opening Circle: Saying your Name and pronoun we will agree to the 3 C s  Workshop Agreements – Consent, Care, & Confidentiality

Creating Your Nest: You are invited to create your own personalized self-pleasure nest. If you feel drawn to it, you can bring toys or objects to explore different sensations and enhance your experience. I offer the option to explore new toys from my personal collection you can borrow.

Guided Self-Love Ritual: With music playing, I will guide you through a 45-minute self-love ritual. You have the freedom to touch every part of your body, including your genitals. I encourage you to embrace playfulness, sensuality, and pleasure, allowing yourself to dive deep into the experience.

Integration and Stillness: We conclude the ritual by integrating the experience in stillness, providing a space for reflection and grounding. This allows you to absorb the sensations and emotions that arose during the ritual.

Closing Circle: We gather again to share our experiences, insights, and any reflections we wish to express

During the workshop, you have the freedom to choose whether to keep your eyes open or closed and to dress as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. You can also cover yourself with a blanket if it enhances your sense of privacy and intimacy. Please note that participants will not be touching one another.

Nudity is fully optional and welcomed if it aligns with your comfort level.

Why Self-Touch in Community?

Our society often imposes cultural messages that instill feelings of guilt and shame surrounding masturbation. Our aim is to shift that narrative and promote the normalization of self-pleasure. We strive to create an environment where we can cultivate a loving and respectful connection with our bodies and genitals. By embracing this space where we can witness and be witnessed as erotic beings. It is common for us to rush through experiences or focus solely on achieving release when it comes to self-pleasure. In this ritual, we invite you to slow down, take your time, and be fully present with yourself. Instead of chasing a quick climax, we encourage a deeper exploration of your body and sensations. It’s an opportunity to savor each moment, to be fully present in the pleasure and connection with yourself. By embracing this mindful approach, you can discover new depths of self-discovery, pleasure, and self-love.

The Self-Love Workshop offers a beautiful and transformative experience where we embrace self-pleasure, playfulness, sensuality, and pleasure in a safeR and supportive environment.

The Three Circles Ritual

Community, Self, Pleasure, Celebration.

Inviting, illuminating, empowering, challenging, revealing, freeing, energising, nurturing, normalising, affirming, honouring….. and more.

 

In this choreographed ceremony we can move between different roles, experiment and try ourselves out. Celebrate with others your body, your genitals, your lust and your arousal. Slip into the role of an exhibitionist or voyeur or watch the goings-on as a witness from the outside. Clothing, nudity and masturbation are welcome.

 

The ceremony provides a powerful opportunity to increase your sense of self acceptance.  There is a opportunity for gaining confidence in managing your boundaries.


The 3 Circles Ceremony was developed by Joseph Kramer and delivered by the Institute of Somatic Sexology, and uses 3 circular areas to represent 3 different aspects of participation.

 

There is an the outside circle in which to be still and support the group. The second circle is an area to individually explore your own sexual and sensual nature. The centre is an area in which to interact with others if you choose. This physical delineation of areas gives visible form to the agreements we make regarding the nature of each space.

What you can get from the ceremony:
*A greater acceptance and appreciation of your own physical body
*A higher level of comfort in setting and expressing your personal boundaries
*An increased ease and confidence in saying no
*An environment to explore aspects of your sexuality that may otherwise have difficulty being expressed
*An increased understanding of where you might find it difficult to be true to yourself
*A freedom in having permission to celebrate yourself as a sensual and sexual person.

 

What we offer:
*Non-judgemental and inclusive facilitation so all feel welcome
*Clear rules and guidelines regarding what is and isn’t appropriate within the workshop, so that participants feel safe and respected
*Get-to-know-you activities
*Exercises in which to experience what it is to communicate and respect each others needs and boundaries
*An opportunity to let go of external trappings / clothing and allow yourself to be seen
*Clearly delineated physical spaces which allow you to choose the level at which you participate
*An environment in which you can explore your body, your choices, your preferred level of sharing touch and human interaction
*This is an opportunity to celebrate, and have fun being, the unique sexual being that is yourself. 

What you take away from it, is as individual as you.

 

The event is clothing optional.

You will need to bring either a sarong and towel or 2 towels to sit / lie on. 

Some massage oil or lube if you have special needs.

 

Participants are free to explore their sexuality with or without physical interaction with others and with or without clothing.

You are encouraged to interact only to the level you choose.

  2. Keep it chill, keep it platonic: Cuddle parties are a strictly platonic affair. No hanky-panky, no funny business. Just good old-fashioned cuddling.

  3. Communicate your comfort zone: Don’t be afraid to communicate your own boundaries and desires. Remember, cuddling is all about comfort, so let’s make sure everyone feels at ease.

  4. Respect the “no”: If someone says “no” or “stop,” respect their request immediately. No means no, and we’re all about respect and consent here.

  5. No pressure, just cuddles: There should be no pressure to cuddle or touch anyone you’re not comfortable with. It’s all about having a good time and feeling cozy, so let’s make sure everyone feels good.

  6. Let’s keep everything confidential and respect each other’s privacy.

  7. Freshen up, snuggle up: Please practice good personal hygiene before coming to the cuddle party. We want everyone to feel fresh and cozy, not icky and uncomfortable.

 

We hope these cuddle party consent rules make you smile, and we can’t wait to cuddle with you soon!

🥰 What exactly happens at the Selflove workshop?
We start with an opening circle, we shake our bodies and we dance in whatever way feels comfortable to two songs to arrive in our bodies. You are invited to create your own little self-pleasure nest/ place and if it attracts you, you can choose some toys or objects to explore sensations. Music plays, and I guide you through this self-love ritual for 45 minutes. We end it by integrating in stillness, followed with a closing circle
You can touch every part of your body, including your genltals. I encourage you to dive deep into playfulness, sensuálity and pleasúre.
You can have your eyes open or closed, and be as dressed or undressed as you like. There’s also the option to cover yourself with a blanket. There is the possibility to try out new toys ( which I bring from my personal collection ) or bring your own.
🔸 One beautiful Testimonial I got about this Workshop:
“Thinking I knew everything I could know about touching myself, I attended the Self Love workshop with Janina. Her careful holding of the space and constant encouragement to explore the unexplored, led me to a breakthrough in my own understanding of my body – allowing me to run along the edge of orgasm for longer than I thought was possible. Not only did this enhance my own pleasure, but also immediately added to the richness of sex with my partner. I am so grateful I took the risk to attend!” — M, Selfove Workshop 2022
 
🧚‍♀️About Janina Vivianne:
My Name is Janina Vivianne(she /her), and I am a Sx-educator and Workshop facilitator since 2018. I have been passionate about Sxuality my whole life, and pleasuring myself was always a daily ritual. In my own experience being able to f*ck myself made me a less dependent and more empowered human being.
Since 2019 I created these selflove spaces on festivals and got so many requests to make this a more regular accessible experience. For 2023, the Selflove Workshop will be monthly at Sarfabrik in Vienna. I use gender-neutral language and aim to create a braver / safer Space prioritizing the needs of intersectionality marginalized people. All my Workshops have a sliding scale and are fully wheelchair accessible.
 
Embodied Selflove – Special Edition with Genital pleasure coaching

A SELF PLEASURE RITUAL – WHAT’S THAT?

Touch Yourself! is a space to explore self-touch, movement, breath and sound. It’s a space to get curious about your body and what feels good. To listen deeply to your needs and desires. Where you can be witnessed celebrating your sexuality, and supported in a communal setting.

In a ritualized way, we bring deep presence and attention to our bodies, our sensations, and one another. This time Jeremy and Janina will also give some imputs in how to stimulate the body and genitals.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Touch Yourself! Is open to people of all genders, abilities and sexual orientations who want to deepen their relationship to their bodies, and explore their sexuality in a supportive space. If you want to liberate your pleasure, and feel seen and accepted as an erotic being, Touch Yourself is a space for you.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

We will start with practices to help ground ourselves in the body, connect with the space, and create a container of safety with one another. 

We start with an opening circle, we shake our bodies and we dance in whatever way feels comfortable to two songs to arrive in our bodies. You are invited to create your own little self-pleasure nest/ place and if it attracts you, you can choose some toys or objects to explore sensations. Music plays, and I guide you through this self-love ritual for 45 minutes. We end it by integrating in stillness, followed with a closing circle.

You can touch every part of your body, including your genltals. I encourage you to dive deep into playfulness, sensuálity and pleasúre.

 

You can have your eyes open or closed, and be as dressed or undressed as you like. There’s also the option to cover yourself with a blanket. There is the possibility to try out new toys ( which I bring from my personal collection ) or bring your own.

WHY SELF-TOUCH IN COMMUNITY?

We receive a lot of cultural messages around masturbation, often laden with guilt and shame. In this ritual, we normalize self-pleasure, seeking to love and honor our bodies and our genitals.

There is tremendous power in being witnessed as erotic beings, without being objectified or reduced to body parts. In witnessing others, we give one another permission to inhabit our full selves without shame.

Intimacy Exploration Lab – 19.02.22 

Let’s tap into a soft & consensual connection. We’ll meet each other, without judgment, and slowly explore the qualities of touch & ways of experiencing pleasure in a held & open space. Let’s try to turn down the volume of our rational minds and explore a world of sensuality where new doors might open up to deeper authentic encounters where more fulfilling touch is possible.

My intention is to co-create with you a soft and sensual space where we can connect to our bodies, feelings and desires and explore this with others. 

The Space will have several stations of exploration that invite you to play with different qualities of touch & connection. (sensation play, self-touch, cuddles, blind touch, authentic relating, playfight, pain & plea sure, massage, toy try out area, etc… )

With over 60 years of education experience collectively, our approach incorporates disciplines of psychology, sociology, public health, psychotherapy, and personal coaching to create a systemic view of how consent impacts everyone, from the bedroom to the boardroom. We believe consent is part of everyday life and its practice builds stronger, safer, and more connected communities.

Intimacy Exploration Lab – 22.01.22 –  1:30 – 4:30 pm – 2 Spots left

Let’s tap into a soft & consensual connection. We’ll meet each other, without judgment, and slowly explore the qualities of touch & ways of experiencing pleasure in a held & open space. Let’s try to turn down the volume of our rational minds and explore a world of sensuality where new doors might open up to deeper authentic encounters where more fulfilling touch is possible.

My intention is to co-create with you a soft and sensual space where we can connect to our bodies, feelings and desires and explore this with others. 

The Space will have several stations of exploration that invite you to play with different qualities of touch & connection. (no touch, self touch, non sexual touch, pain & pleasure, massage , tantra, toy area etc… )

✨ Playfight ✨ 22.01.2023 – 5:30 till 9 pm – FULL 

WHAT IS PLAYFIGHT (how we do it)?

Playfight can be a lot of different things. It is what it is for you, but mostly it includes fun and stress relief, sometimes even emotional reappraisal (getting in touch with your own energy, anger, joy, sadness, etc.). So we use roughhousing (as dogs and many other animals do, for example) as a sensory and physical means of discovering ourselves and expressing ourselves honestly. In the playful encounters/fights, sustained by group attention, we enjoy consensual physical contact in (mostly) one-on-one confrontations on mattresses/mats. With a group size of about 25-30 players, the group forms a protective ring. Participation can be non-combative, observing (and refusing prompts) is an important part of the experience.

 

In our encounters we can play and experiment with intensity/dynamics, as well as gender representations and the expansion of social agency, perhaps including pain and pleasure. In this way, we want to contribute to the individuation of the participants by practicing to perceive and clearly communicate our boundaries. Our vision is to increase social participation in the communities we work with because people can stand up for themselves more clearly.
