Fire cupping is a traditional Chinese therapy that blends heat, anticipation, and trust into an unforgettable healing experience! The Ember Vessel invites attendees to explore how fire can open us up, deepen our connections, and turn vulnerability into something searingly beautiful! This class will cover essential foundations while also showing us how to carry out each procedure safely, making it perfect for those just beginning their fire pl@y journey as well as experienced practitioners looking to add more passion, precision, and confidence to their scenes! All skill levels are welcome.
In this workshop, attendees will learn the ins and outs of the cupping practice. We’ll explore dry body fire engagement as well as wet body engagment, focusing on pacing, placement, and reading a bottom’s responses in real time. The class will also include live demonstrations of more advanced fire pl@y techniques, offering a rare opportunity to witness higher-level applications that deepen understanding and spark inspiration. This is an experience you truly won’t want to miss. 🔥
