About This Event

Many kinksters are also in ethical non-monogamous relationships or have multiple play partners. Many of those are stumbling into these constellations on a trial and error basis and it takes a lot of work and effort to unlearn drilled in behaviours from the world of monogamy. In this class, we are offering some general suggestions and many little tools to help people navigate poly and kink, specifically power relationships. We are not telling you how you should do it but rather what problems can arise in certain situations and how to circumvent them or to deal with them head on. Bring your curiosity, some note taking material and as many of your partners and crushes as you can. An evening full of laughs, tears, and hopefully many aha moments.
