In this workshop we want to play with psychological dynamics of dominance and submission.

A power exchange of some kind is nearly always present in human relationships. There are people all around us in power exchange relationships who do not acknowledge the dynamic or call it anything. Consider a husband who gives his wife an allowance but no credit card in her own name. A woman controls her coworkers, making them eager to please her even though she is not their boss. That is right, there are plenty of people wearing collars and others tugging at their leashes, but the gear is invisible and the dynamic unexamined. In this workshop we will do the opposite. We will consciously create and name a power dynamic in order to play with it.

Would you like to explore the many facets of your personality, different dynamics with a partner/partners, taboos and scenarios limited only by our imagination? This workshop is for you.

I am inviting you for a weekend of games where you will have an opportunity to experience different degrees of dominance and submission through your choice, daring, and curiosity. All will be based on consent, guidelines, and reflective sharing in which we can learn from one another.

What is submission for me? It is an act of consciously submitting to the power of another. It is a state of meditation in which I can fully let go, feel held and supported. It is like a free dive, which has an expansive quality and calming effects on my nervous system. I can just freely be while all decisions are made for me. How freeing is that?

What is dominance for me? First and foremost, dominance for me is about being present and taking responsibility. That is one of the very attractive assets I appreciate in people in general. The act of taking responsibilities automatically generates trust and a sense of reliability. And trust is absolutely vital when one wants to engage in dominance/submission play, or in any kind of human relationship.

The weekend is concluded with a PlaySpace on Sunday afternoon.
