Don’t fear the brat—resistance can be the secret ingredient for creating thrilling, juicy scenes. In fact, sometimes a little misbehavior is exactly what’s needed - a little conscious tension can ignite the spark you’re craving. When you know how to navigate friction and conflict in scenes, you'll be unstoppable. In this workshop, Nix will teach you how to lean into resistance with confidence, embrace power struggles, and turn playful clashes into deeply satisfying dynamics.

💡 What We’ll Explore:

🌀 The Dance of Resistance: Explore how resistance can elevate tension, fueling powerful scenes full of energy and excitement.

⚔️ Power Struggles: Learn to embrace clashes as opportunities, moving energy instead of fighting against it, and finding the fun in the struggle.

🎭 Taming the Brat: Handle button-pushers with skill, turning pIayful defiance into a dynamic, connected experience of mutual satisfaction.

💬 Negotiating Bratty Scenes: Ensure alignment by setting clear expectations, so both parties feel fulfilled and surprises don’t derail the fun.

🔄 Getting Unstuck: Master strategies to break through stalemates and reignite the flow of power when things feel stuck.
