About the event
Sensual Pleasure Playshop
More than an icebreaker — a full melt
Ready to awaken your senses and spark connection? The Sensual Pleasure Playshop is a guided warm-up for singles, couples, and entire constellations—bring the whole polycule if you've got one! This is an invitation to let go, tune in, and melt into embodied connection, and is open to all experience levels.
We’ll begin with a welcoming circle and some individual grounding exercises to awaken your erotic energy and clarify your boundaries. From there, the group will melt into a series of sensual partnered activities to get your body tingling and connecting. Enjoy this guided playshop designed to build confidence in approaching new partners, bridging connection, and building delicious anticipation.
You can stay with one partner or explore with others—always optional, always with consent at the center.
After the guided portion, the evening shifts into a relaxed social setting where you can put what you’ve learned into practice. The instructor will join as a fellow attendee, and the space will open up for mingling, conversation, practice, and organic connection. Enjoy snacks and non-alcoholic beverages while you connect, flirt, or simply bask in the afterglow of shared energy.
This is a social, not a play party. Flirtation and conversation are the focuses of this event. Build anticipation and spark interest for future spicy events, like our play parties.
Come curious, come open, and come ready to melt the ice completely.
Dress code: wear what makes you feels comfortable and please keep undergarments on
Please arrive for the start time, as this is a guided experience rather than a drop-in activity. Doors will open 15 minutes before the playshop starts. Doors will close at 7:20PM sharp to maintain an intimate atmosphere.
Membership not required. Tickets are available on a sliding scale to promote inclusivity and accessibility. Please choose the ticket price that makes this event accessible to you. All ticket types provide the same access to the event.
