In the dominant culture a select few bodies are encouraged to take for their pleasure. Many bodies are harmed in these normed, nonconsensual acts of taking. This practice lab is a reclamation of consensually taking action for YOUR pleasure! For five weeks, as trans, femmes, and thems we will practice taking action for our pleasure, get to know our embodied desire & want, and negotiate consensual touch with others.  Drawn from the lineages of Wheel of Consent, Somatic Sex Education, and partner dancing. 

 

In this series we will practice

~ skills from the Wheel of Consent 

~ negotiating consensual taking  

~ celebrating no and receiving a no

~ what your embodied pleasure and wanting feel like 

 

What is held practice space?

Greta and Kk will lead warm up exercises, there will be time to practice the skills, and we will wrap up with time to savor and reflect. 

 

This series is an invitational space where the choosing is more important than the doing. All touch is fully clothed. The series will begin with platonic touch and include invitations to sensual & erotic touch in later sessions. This is not a play party, but it’s great practice for a play party and for all of your relationships.
