About this Event
Okay... it sounds simple. You paid to be at an event... now... just have fun! BUT HOW?! And what do you do with all of those pesky EMOTIONS!
While this might sound silly, these are very normal feelings to have at a pl@y party - and not just for the "beginners". Navigating a party can be overwhelming! Perhaps one moment you're feeling yourself and your stellar outfit - and then your social anxiety crashes the party uninvited. Maybe you don't know what to expect so you buy a ticket and struggle to muster the courage to leave the house!
Hello folks, my name is Nix and I've hosted my fair share of events - by now I have seen quite a bit. All of these situations are actually quite common... I myself have been a frequent flyer to the Low Stim Room to handle my own emotions at a party. The purpose of this workshop is to normalize and come to love and understand the types of feelings that can keep you stuck in your own way.
At Pagans Paradise, the saying goes "More Safe, More S1ut!"... This workshop equips you with the tools you need to navigate the many types of situations that might occur at your next social event. And as your comfort, confidence, and self-trust grows... so does the potential of your plea$ure. We promise.
Stay for the AfterHours (a "mini-party") to connect with others in many exciting and expansive ways.

Workshop Format
- Feel Free to Take Notes! If it helps you learn, we encourage you to bring a notepad to jot notes and reflections
- 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.

After-Hours:
After the workshop, the lights go down, the music goes up, and the setting transforms into a pl@yful social environment - an Afterhours. Engage at your own comfort level—whether that means dancing, observing, casually chatting by the snacks, or actively interacting with others from the Workshop.
