The Ins and Outs of Play Parties

 

Sex parties, aka play parties, are a provocative way to explore your sexuality and relationships, experiment with different fantasies or desires, and discover new aspects of yourself. They offer an empowering opportunity to challenge societal taboos while connecting with others who also question the status quo. However, without the proper preparation, play parties can also feel intimidating and intense. Whether flying solo or with a partner, learn how to feel confident navigating play parties and maximize your ability to experience pleasure and fun!

In this experiential workshop, you will:

  • Address common anxieties, fears, and misconceptions surrounding play parties and the reframes that will alleviate your anxieties. 

  • Discover a plethora of tips and tricks for meeting new people and making nourishing connections.

  • Receive valuable insights on attending play parties solo or alongside a partner.

  • Learn how to navigate consent culture and play party etiquette so you feel empowered and safe

  • Tackle potential challenges and develop tactics for navigating them before, during, and after parties.

Play parties may seem daunting but they can also be exciting and rewarding. The practical guidance, captivating anecdotes, and interactive exercises in this workshop will equip you to explore play parties with confidence and skill!
