Incorporating sex magick and ritual into BDSM (or vice versa!) can lead to powerful, transformative and deeply connective experiences. From ordeal paths to gentle transmutations, there is incredible potential in harnessing the power of our libidinal energies and creativity to heighten play and create amazing containers.

This workshop intensive will incorporate aspects of history, psychology, science and philosophy, with an emphasis on respectful acknowledgment and gratitude for the various cultural traditions informing our praxis. Our approach incorporates reverence for land, the body and the mystery. We’ll also be exploring tools and techniques to bring the practical to your conceptual. Solo explorers are welcome; there will be opportunities to connect with others, and no attendees will be compelled to engage in activities or discussion.

NEW TICKETING STRUCTURE TRIAL

We have added a a pay-what-you-can/want ticket - to help support the community and those who may not be able to afford the full price ticket of $150, this is an option where you can pay what you can. There is no upper limit on this ticket, so if you feel like subsidising those who purchase 'lower priced tickets, or giving a little extra to the facilitator to support us, this is your option!

We believe in both accessibility for the community, as well as making sure our facilitators are paid appropriately for their erotic / intellectual labours, so this is our solution to hold space for both with a minimum of fuss!

Enjoy this social experiment, and we'd love your feedback.

✨ Afterpay and ZipPay available ✨
