SUMMARY:Spicy Storytime
DESCRIPTION:Make yourselves comfortable\, have a cup of tea or hot chocolate and listen to queer smut read to you live and in colour (and with an accent maybe). \nThis evening is all about the stories that tickle our brains\, make us blush or cringe and if you want to hide under a blanket to listen… more physically… to the stories\, that’s also fine.

SUMMARY:Intentional Pain Play
DESCRIPTION:Too often\, pain play gets flattened all the time. Into impact play. Into a set of roles and a handful of tools. Into repetitive patterns. But what if we started somewhere else entirely? \nIntentional Pain Play is a workshop that approaches sadomasochistic practice from the inside out: not what you do\, but what you’re doing it for. What intentions\, needs and desire drive you to give and/or receive pain? And how do you build the scene around that intention — independent of roles\, relationship structures\, or the body you’re in? \nTogether\, we’ll open up the conversation\, work with the intentions you bring into the room\, and lab out how to translate them into concrete practice. The session closes with time to actually play.

SUMMARY:Fuck Your Trauma
DESCRIPTION:Very often when people as whether it’s okay or advisable to play with trauma the answer is: don’t. Better not touch it. You will re-traumatize yourself. Wait until you’re “healed”. \nBut here’s the thing: Most of us are already doing it. Whether we are aware of it or not. \nFuck Your Trauma starts by acknowledging that trauma and kink are already in the room together. The question isn’t whether to engage with that but how to do it with more awareness\, more care\, and more curiosity. \nThis is not a workshop with answers. It’s a discussion that reframes the conversation entirely. Away from ideas of brokenness\, re-traumatization and kink as “healing\,” and toward a harm reduction approach that makes space for self-knowledge\, resourcefulness\, and genuine curiosity about what’s actually happening when we play. \nWe’ll look at this structurally\, not personally. No one will be asked to share their traumatic experiences. Instead\, we’ll explore frameworks and ideas for approaching this kind of play in an intentional way.

SUMMARY:Shibari - Beyond the Basics
DESCRIPTION:You’ve taken the Intro classes\, you know your single column from your double\, and you’re ready for more — but jumping straight into “Ropes: All Levels” can feel like a big leap.\nThis class is designed to meet you right in the middle. \nIn this session\, we slow things down and build the skills to help you become confident\, capable rope players. You’ll refine your techniques\, explore simple patterns with more intention\, and start working with connection\, communication. We offer a mix of hands-on guidance\, practical exercises\, and space to ask the questions that don’t quite fit into an intro class. \nPerfect for anyone who wants to solidify their fundamentals\, deepen their understanding\, and feel ready to step into our full range of rope offerings. \nCome build confidence\, control\, and creativity — one knot at a time.

SUMMARY:Bad at being bad
DESCRIPTION:For those who’d love to be a little more bratty\, bold\, or in charge… but keep apologizing halfway through. \nSo you want to tease\, resist\, take control\, or be just a bit of a menace-but every time you try\, it comes out… polite? Slightly awkward? Followed by an immediate “sorry”? Perfect. You’re exactly who this class is for. We’re not here to turn you into some flawlessly intimidating creature of the night. We’re here to explore the art of being just bad enough-through small shifts\, playful tension\, and the kind of energy that makes someone pause and go\, “oh.” \nExpect low-pressure exercises\, a healthy amount of awkwardness\, and plenty of space to experiment without needing to impress anyone (including yourself). \nNo experience required. Being a bit rubbish at this is\, in fact\, ideal. \nArtwork by: @mcmcdoodles

SUMMARY:Shibari Live Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Shibari Live Drawing differs from usual live drawing sessions in two major ways. For one\, the poses that can be reached with the help of ropes are very different from anything live drawing models could assume on their own\, e.g. suspensions.  \nOn the other hand\, those poses are short living\, which means that artists are not only met with unusual poses but also with less time to catch them.  \nIn two Shibari performances by different Shibari practitioners from the community\, the participants will meet different body types every time.  \nAll levels welcome\, all media welcome (photography is dependent on the performer’s individual wishes and only as long as it does not disturb the other participants).  \n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Shibari - Intermediate
DESCRIPTION:In this training\, we take the participants on a journey into the details of Shibari. Floorwork\, suspensions\, movement\, and communication are at the centre in this training series. \nEach month\, we develop the skills via one dedicated rope pattern\, which means that participants will work on the same pattern for a complete month. That helps solidifying the pattern as well as filling your toolboxes for elaborate and diverse rope scenes.

SUMMARY:Shibari - Beyond the Basics
DESCRIPTION:You’ve taken the Intro classes\, you know your single column from your double\, and you’re ready for more — but jumping straight into “Ropes: All Levels” can feel like a big leap.\nThis class is designed to meet you right in the middle. \nIn this session\, we slow things down and build the skills to help you become confident\, capable rope players.

We offer a mix of hands-on guidance\, practical exercises\, and space to ask the questions that don’t quite fit into an intro class. \nPerfect for anyone who wants to solidify their fundamentals\, deepen their understanding\, and feel ready to step into our full range of rope offerings. \nCome build confidence\, control\, and creativity — one knot at a time.

SUMMARY:Playfighting
DESCRIPTION:Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move\, think\, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight. All constellations are welcome.  \n\n\n\nIn a safe environment\, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event. At play fighting\, we will start with an introduction that covers motivation\, safety\, consent\, and expectations. \n\n\n\nAfterwards\, it’s the participants’ space and time to experience play fights themselves.

SUMMARY:Touch Me Hold Me Let Me Go
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores breath\, impulse\, voice and movement through a somatic algorithm called Touch Me Hold Me Let Me Go\, developed by Lee Su-Feh from years of research and practice as a choreographer and teacher of voice and movement.   \nTouch Me Hold Me Let Me Go helps you speak and move from a place of support and ease. It is a tool to practice making requests and stating boundaries from an embodied place. Participants can expect to roll around on and off the floor; tune in to their breath and voice; and explore consent and permission around touch. Embedded in the work is ongoing attention to pain and injury\, as well as permission to rest. Pleasure and care will be our compass in this work. At Studio Allegory\, this workshop will be followed by a conversation with Georg Barkas about its applications in rope play.  \n  \nTMHMLMG is \nAn algorithm for dancing with the planet. \nAn algorithm for dancing with your beloved. \nAn algorithm for dancing from enough-ness. \nTo practice love in the midst of distress\, \nTo practice care in the midst of distress
