A Fetish Week London Fringe (Independently run) Event

Do you feel shame?

Many LGBT+ and kinky people feel shame for many things in their lives. Identity (gender, race, sexuality). Body Image. Interests… the list is endless. 

How does that shame affect you? 

What does it stop you from doing? What would life be like if you let go of that shame?

This afternoon workshop will help you to overcome feelings of shame in your life. 

By exploring where shame comes from and what it is telling us, and recognising the behaviours it causes, we can unpick the shame from the ground up. 

This will be a safe space where our small group can explore the feelings of shame they have in themselves and start to overcome those feelings.

You'll leave with a better understanding of your own feelings of shame and a toolkit for working through the shame you feel in life. 

This is a small group event with a maximum of 20 tickets available. Book quickly to secure your place. 

Please note

As part of Fetish Week London, this course is open to people of all genders, sexualities and kink interests. Kink clothing is encouraged, but not mandatory, but please keep it safe for work (no bums or other rude bits showing). Also, pups, please be ready to remove your hoods, as it can be difficult to hear you speak or to read your facial expression. 

This is a stand-alone workshop. However, if you wish to join this workshop AND Kink Skills in the Workplace  (which takes place in the morning at the same venue), you can buy one ticket that covers both workshops at a discount. Just choose the ‘both workshops’ option below. You do not need to buy a separate ticket for the morning event.
