introduction to BD$M

This introductory workshop offers a grounded and accessible entry point into the world of power play, and conscious exploration. Together, we’ll build a foundation of consent, communication, and safety, while exploring power, sensation, the dynamics of domination and submission in both physical and psychological forms. You’ll learn practical tools for negotiation, boundary-setting, and aftercare, alongside an introduction to impact play and the use of rules and protocols. This workshop is designed to give you the confidence, awareness, and skills to explore BDSM in a way that is intentional, consensual, and deeply connected.
