We will play with ritual kink and create a physical connection inspired by age-old body rites. Let’s explore the nature of surrendering, and of guiding someone on a journey of submission.

When we find ourselves in an ecstatic state, there is only the here and now. We dare to set our animalistic sides free, to be selfish, to demand. And we dare to ask for loss of control, to ask to be taken, to surrender - to whimper joyfully. There is unique healing, ecstatic empowerment – and there are pitfalls, problems and addictions.

Let’s take a look at BDSM and fetish as a shamanic or spiritual practice, integrating archetypes, chakra areas and tantric wisdom. The foundation will be a presentation of film clips and readings from the work of shamanic pioneers Fakir Musafar and Cleo Dubois. And then we will practice!

Kink play can become incredibly powerful shadow work. With a clarification of intent and the nature of ritual, we celebrate the ecstatic path of erotic dominance and powerful fetishes.
