POWER: The Vital Foundations

Hosted by Nix

Real power is unbreakable and unmistakable - but never fakeable.

When it’s real, you can feel it. And one can put on boots or demand to be called “Sir” - but the conversation between bodies will always drown out acting or roleplay. For this reason, an understanding of erotic power is absolutely vital to fulfilling k!nk scenes.

Embodied power dynamics can be felt not only by the Dom/me and sub, but by everyone in the room. Learn how to co-create scenes that feel alive and move everyone involved. Whether you're new to k!nk or a seasoned player, this workshop will redefine how you approach power in your scenes.

💡 What We’ll Explore

  1. 🌟 The Nature of Power What is power? Drawing upon Taoist wisdom, you’ll learn the yin and yang of power. This fundamental understanding will give you a new set of eyes & change the way you view human interaction - in and out of k!nk.
  2. 🤝 Partner Work & D/s Dynamics Engage in light hands-on exercises to feel power dynamics from both perspectives. Practice coasting along in surrender as well as taking the reins with dominant presence. Even if switching isn’t something you’re used to, it’s essential for understanding.
  3. 🔍 Common Misconceptions Debunk myths about dominance and submission. Avoid common mistakes that kill the flow of your scenes.
  4. 🎨 The Art of Influence Explore how to locate someone's desires and understand their current headspace. Then, co-create magic - with their mind, body, and soul delightfully on board!
  5. 🌀 Connection & Attunement Learn how to provide and respond to feedback during scenes. Stay connected with your partner, even through friction. Learn how rigid planning kills eros in scenes and why you should always aim for the real gem: discovery.
  6. 🧠 Practical Tools for Power Exchange Gain actionable techniques for building trust and creating safer containers for authentic exploration.

Workshop Format:

  1. Discussion and Practical Exercises: The workshop will include a mix of discussions and exercises. You'll have the chance to interact with others, practice communication techniques, and receive feedback.
  2. Feel Free to Take Notes! If it helps you learn, we encourage you to bring a notepad to jot notes and reflections.
  3. Solo and Group Work: You can come alone or with a partner. During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. We do not pair people up and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort. Couples can stay paired the whole time or choose to practice with others.
  4. Dress Code: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. There is a place to change outfits.
  5. This workshop is open to all gender identifications, sexual orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 18+.

Jam After the Workshop:

A Jam session is a practice participation based gathering where we focus on practicing what you learned in the workshop or know within the context of the workshop. We will have an Opening Circle & Community Guidelines followed by live demonstration scenes & open practice time. Opt to engage to your comfort level or simply observe and learn. This is not a hookup style event and the focus is on practice (Non Sex-Based).
