Unleash your human animal—explore instinct, movement, and authentic connection in this embodied journey into primal pl@y.About this Event
Beneath our polished words and cultivated routines, our bodies remember something older - a primal truth that exists beneath the surface. Primal play isn’t about "pretending" to be other animals - it’s about reconnecting to and rediscovering the authentic human animal within - and allowing your instincts to guide you into a unique state of flow.
In this gathering, you are invited to shed layers of “civilized” expectation and get into your body, tuning in to the spectrum of power, vulnerability, scent, movement, and energy that primal play offers.
Join to give the primal human animal within you a place to roam and thrive.
💡 What We’ll Explore:
- 🐺 What is Primal? "Primal" is an umbrella term that includes quite a bit. Explore archetypal primal dynamics and types of activities that get us closer to the human animals that we are.
- 👃 Sniff, Snarl, Signal: When words fall away, how do you stay attuned? We’ll cover nonverbal tools for reading and expressing desire, consent, safewords, and reading shifts in energy—all without relying on speech.
- 🦴 Scene Sparks: Get inspired with scene ideas and headspace explorations—like breeding rituals, scent worship, chasing, scratching, growling, tussling, and animal roleplay.
- 🛡️ Safe Territory: Learn how to plan and contain scenes rooted in primal instinct. We’ll cover negotiation (both verbal and nonverbal), red flags to watch for, and the logistics of safely engaging in these types of scenes.
- 🧠 Aftercare & Integration Return to your "regular" self, regulate the nervous system, and support each other after existing in a primal headspace.
We are having a 2-part evening of indulgence and learning. Come for the workshop and stay for the Jam to practice what you learned and meet other like-minded folks!
Workshop Format
- Feel Free to Take Notes! If it helps you learn, we encourage you to bring a notepad to jot down notes.
- Interactions: The Workshop may include personal reflections, interactive demonstrations, and practical exercises. This may include solo/partner/group activities. Participate and opt-in to the extent of your comfort - you can also just sit back at any time and observe others!
- Come Alone or With Someone! Come solo or bring a partner, a friend, a group of coworkers, your frenemies, or your entire polycule! During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to interact with other students & switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. We do not pair people up and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort. Couples can stay paired the whole time or choose to practice with others.
- Dress Code: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or spicy. There is a place to change outfits.
- Who Can Come: This workshop is open to all gender identifications, orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 21+
Jam After the Workshop:
A Jam session is a practice-based gathering where we focus on applying what you learned in the workshop or know within the context of the curriculum. The Jam is tailored to the interests of the students and may involve live demonstration scenes, guided practice time, and other applications of class material. Opt to engage to your comfort level or simply observe and learn. This is not a hookup-style event and the focus is on practice (Non Sex-Based).
Please Acknowledge:
It should go without saying, but we are going to spell it out clearly nonetheless: k¡nk and intimacy activities are inherently risky. Safety requires practice and cannot be guaranteed. By attending, you agree to participate at your own risk, conduct your own risk management, and agree to hold the event facilitators and facility harmless for any type of physical or emotional harm that may occur.
