How to create a kinky scene

Ever wanted to bring your fantasies to life but weren’t sure where to begin? This workshop is all about turning desire into reality — with clarity, confidence, and communication.

In this two-hour, discussion-based session, we’ll explore how to design a consensual and satisfying kinky scene from the ground up. Through guided reflection and simple interactive exercises, you’ll learn how to identify your needs, express your limits, and co-create clear agreements with your partner(s). We’ll cover essential tools like negotiation, boundary-setting, safety codes and aftercare — with a strong focus on mutual respect, self-awareness, and pleasure.

This is not a hands-on play class, but a powerful opportunity to deepen your understanding of consent and personal desire. Perfect for beginners or anyone with experience but wanting to play with more intention and safety.

Bring a notebook, your curiosity, and any questions you’ve been holding back.
