🧭 What to Expect : 11:00-20:00
Through guided workshops and embodied exercises, you’ll be invited to:
✨ Embrace your body with confidence and compassion
✨ Practice consent and boundaries that feel empowering and clear
✨ Shred outdated labels and limiting beliefs
✨ Learn how to ask for what you truly want — without shame or apology
✨ Equip yourself with therapeutic tools for pleasure, nervous system regulation, and presence
The workshops will make you tooled-up, tuned-in, and turned-on, to join the play party with intention, clarity, and courage.
We seamlessly shift into a guided, sex-positive play space where all that you’ve awakened can be explored and embodied. Whether you’re seeking connection, craving intimacy, or ready to express your erotic self — this is your space.
Everything is invitational, inclusive, and held with integrity. Consent is our cornerstone. No experience necessary — just bring your truth.
