Sat 20th & Sun 21st Sept
+ play party Sat 20th Sept (7.30pm - midnight)
For millennia, seekers have used physical and emotional extremes to achieve transcendent and ecstastic states.
Using techniques from both kinky play and tantra, Dossie Easton unlocks the potential of BDSM as a sacred practice. This 2-day intensive enables participants an in-depth experience of Dossie’s extraordinary work in the field of Radical Ecstasy. Dossie will share her many decades of expertise using an experiential approach.
Dossie writes: We are planning to journey to the intersection of BDSM and tantra, which Janet & I have written about in our book Radical Ecstasy. We will start with basic exercises, breath and safety, then move onto connection and ecstastic practice. All exercises have a range of possibilities suitable for newcomers and experienced players; for intimates, and for total strangers. Genital sex will in no way be required during the workshop. Our focus is much more on energy, connection, transcendent states of consciousness.
This workshop is open to adults of any gender and orientation. It is suitable for singles, couples, triads or any other grouping. No experience is necessary; just bring an open mind and a curiosity to explore your darker side.
Cost: £295 full - £195 concession
