Immerse yourself in a Pagans Paradise Signature exclusive offering: a themed gathering blending connection, education, and demonstrations hosted by Dominus Eros & Alana

🐾🔥 Primal Animal & Pet Play

A Workshop & Jam

Instinct. Hunt. Play. Surrender.

Part of our Primal Series of workshops and parties, this immersive experience invites you to step beyond the social self and into something more instinctual, embodied, and alive.

Primal Animal & Pet Play explores the full spectrum of animalistic expression — from structured pet play and training dynamics to raw, untamed primal interaction including chase, capture, surrender, and the energetic dance of hunter and hunted.

Whether you feel like a loyal companion, a curious creature, or something more wild and feral, this space is designed to help you explore those instincts with intention, consent, safety and creativity.

✨ Part 1: The Workshop 7-10pm

A guided exploration of roles, instinct, and embodied play

We explore two interconnected paths: Pet Play and Primal Play — and how they overlap.

🐺 Primal Play: Instinct, Hunt & Raw Expression

💥 Human as Animal

• Reconnecting with instinct as part of our nature

• Exploring primal identity beyond roles

💥 Hunter & Hunted Dynamics

• Chase, pursuit, capture, surrender,

• The energetic exchange of predator and prey

💥 Feral Embodiment

• Movement, intensity, and grounded physicality

• Safe ways to explore rougher, instinct-driven interaction

💥 Consumption & Desire

• The feeling of wanting, taking, or being taken

• Exploring intensity in a consensual, negotiated way

💥 Pack & Group Energy

• Group dynamics, hierarchy, and collective movement

• Animal-to-animal interaction without structured roles

💥 Negotiation for Primal Play

• Communicating intensity, limits, and escalation

• Balancing freedom with safety

🐾 Pet Play: Structure, Training & Connection

🐾 Understanding the pet/handler dynamic and finding your role

🐾 Body language, vocalizations, and non-verbal communication

🐾 Collaring, leashes, and training techniques

🐾 The sensory joys of pet play: touch, movement, and headspace

🐾 Negotiation, boundaries, and creating a safe container for play

With a mix of guided exercises, live demonstrations, and hands-on activities, you’ll have the opportunity to explore pet play in a fun and supportive environment.

⚡ Part 2: The Jam 10:10pm-12:30am

A playful, immersive space to embody and explore

After the workshop, the space opens into a consent-based, lightly facilitated Jam where instinct leads.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

🐾 Drop into animal space with a guided meditation

🐾 Explore pet play, training, or free primal interaction

🐾 Engage in hunter/hunted, chase, or group primal dynamics

🐾 Participate in optional activities like:

• Animal roulette

• Movement & courting exercises

• Pack exploration

• “Off-leash” roaming

• Primal Pit

🐾 Gear show & tell — bring and share your favorite items

Move at your own pace — observe, engage, or fully embody.
