A REMINDER TO RELAX
We acknowledge the anxieties that come with an event of this nature, and let you know you are not alone in feeling them. We lovingly welcome you with whatever is up. There are no expectations, you get to choose your own adventure tonight. So take a deep breath, go do that happy-making thing that has you feeling centered and get ready to explore. Voyuerism IS participation.
2. Communicate boundaries with your partner(s)
We ask that you have an honest conversation with any partners you have around your desires and boundaries before you arrive at the party so that you are all on the same page.
What is Consent? (Language borrowed from Planned Parenthood)
Freely given. Consenting is a choice you make without pressure, manipulation, or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Reversible. Anyone can change their mind about what they feel like doing, anytime. Even if you’ve done it before, and even if you’re both naked in bed.
Informed. You can only consent to something if you have the full story. For example, if someone says they’ll use a condom and then they don’t, there isn’t full consent.
Enthusiastic. When it comes to sex, you should only do stuff you WANT to do, not things that you feel you’re expected to do.
Specific. Saying yes to one thing (like going to the bedroom to make out) doesn’t mean you’ve said yes to others (like having sxx).
With this in mind, we expect everyone to show up in love and a willingness to help us cultivate a welcoming space for all.
*Any oppressive, discriminatory, or non-consensual behavior will NOT be tolerated.
We require ALL guests to be present, connected & in control.
Doors open at 7:00 PM and CLOSE AT 7:30 PM. BE ON TIME as it is essential to have everyone present for the opening circle. There will not be anyone admitted after the doors are closed to preserve the safety of our space. The Welcome Circle is what we use to introduce ourselves to one another, craft meaningful conversations, share any boundaries and relationship agreements people should know about, and get all comfy and ready to play. There will be a closing circle at midnight. PLEASE text Monique at 619 601 8852 if you’re unavoidably running late, but please just be on time!

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATORS:
Major is an intimacy coach/facilitator at Consciousplay.net, co-founder of Temple Of Hedonism, and Co-Producer of VirtualIntimacyRetreat.com.
Trained as an authentic relating facilitator, he utilizes Integral Theory to create exercises in different practices acting, movement, and intimacy. My innovation and penchant for levity creates a brave experiential container for people to blossom open, and deepen the relationship to self and others. Authentic Relating Games allow you to intimately know yourself and create a space for decentralized processing.
His intention is to show up authentically to create safety and permission for others to show up fully. My containers are for deep intimacy and growth. I believe when we locate and push against our edges, that is where the growth can happen.
