⚠️ Warning: Advanced Class

Many of us come to kink carrying the weight of difficult or traumatic experiences. Despite the harm caused by others, we have survived and reshaped ourselves, often finding that trauma has influenced how we understand our sexuality.

This class will explore the delicate, complex, and deeply advanced practice of sexualizing personal pain and reclaiming formative experiences through play.

In This Class, We’ll Cover:

Why people choose to play with trauma
Different methods of incorporating trauma into play
Engaging ethically and risk-aware
Identifying “scarecrows” in play
Special considerations in negotiation
Tools for processing and aftercare
