About this Event

FEEL THE POWER

Dealing With Brats & Resistance

Don’t fear the brat—they'll pounce on your power! Resistance can be the secret ingredient for creating thrilling, juicy scenes. In fact, when there’s too much obedience, a little intentional tension can ignite the spark you’re craving. When you know how to navigate conflict in scenes, you'll be unstoppable. In this workshop, Nix will teach you how to lean into resistance with confidence, embrace power struggles, and turn playful clashes into deeply satisfying dynamics.



Feel the Power Series
Welcome to the Feel the Power Series, a transformative exploration of power exchange designed for Dom(mes), subs, and switches. This Essentials Class is your gateway into understanding the core dynamics of influence and surrender, laying the groundwork for all future workshops in the series.
Whether you're new to k!nk or a seasoned player, this session will redefine how you approach power in your scenes. True power isn’t about raising your voice or posturing—it’s about embodying presence, cultivating intentionality, and creating a deeply connected experience.



💡 What We’ll Explore:

🌀 The Dance of Resistance: Explore how resistance can elevate tension, creating powerful scenes full of energy and excitement.

⚔️ Power Struggles: Learn to embrace clashes as opportunities, moving energy instead of fighting against it, and finding the fun in the struggle.

🎭 Taming the Brat: Handle button-pushers with skill, turning playful defiance into a dynamic, connected experience of mutual satisfaction.

💬 Negotiating Bratty Scenes: Ensure alignment by setting clear expectations, so both parties feel fulfilled and surprises don’t derail the fun.

🔄 Getting Unstuck: Master strategies to break through stalemates and reignite the flow of power when things feel stuck.

This workshop will leave you equipped to navigate resistance, enhance connection, and transform playful clashes into deeply engaging power dynamics.

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:

Discussion and Practical Exercises: The workshop will include a mix of discussions and hands-on exercises. You'll have the chance to interact with others, practice communication techniques, and receive feedback.

Solo and Group Work:

  • Attend solo or bring someone along. Couples can stay paired or choose to practice with others.
  • You’ll have opportunities to practice with both familiar partners and new acquaintances to replicate established dynamics and/or pickup scene scenarios.
  • Expect communication-based exercises and optionally negotiated non-sexual touch. You can also opt-out at any time and observe others!
  • More physical practice will be reserved for the Jam portion afterward.
  • We won’t assign partners—guests are encouraged to connect at their comfort level.
  • Dress Code: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. There is a spot to change if you need.





Jam After the Workshop:

Stick around for our jam session. This is your chance to put what you’ve learned into action, trying out your new skills on dungeon furniture in a supportive setting. The lights go down, the music goes up, and playtime begins! Nix will be available for feedback, scenes, or additional guidance to solidify the workshop’s learning in a hands-on, playful environment. Participate at your own comfort level - whether that means observing, chatting, or playing with others.



Pricing:

Workshop: Classic $40

Workshop and Jam: Classic $75

Safety is something that requires practice and cannot be guaranteed.
