POWER EXCHANGE ESSENTIALS
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.
In this foundational class, you'll learn to harness states of attention and explore the subtle, transformative nature of power. By mastering these essentials, you'll be equipped to craft scenes that are not only impactful but also profoundly intimate and memorable.
Join us to embrace your role, refine your tools, and unlock the secrets to embodied and connected k!nk that resonates on every level. The skills you gain here will empower your journey through every other workshop in the series.
- Workshop: 7:30pm - 9:30pm

💡 What We’ll Explore
🌟 The Nature of Power
Power is the art of attention in motion. It is also something to embody, not perform. Learn why authenticity is the key to creating impactful and deeply resonant dynamics.
🔍 Common Misconceptions
Debunk myths about dominance and submission, and uncover how to sidestep common mistakes that dilute the intensity of your scenes.
🌀 The Subtle Art of Influence
Explore how to locate your partner's desires and understand their current headspace. Then, learn to influence it.
🤝 Partner Work & Energetic Dynamics
Engage in hands-on exercises to feel the interplay of power from both perspectives, learning how to inspire submission and maintain a strong dominant presence.
🧠 Practical Tools for Power Exchange
Gain actionable techniques for building trust, maintaining connection, and creating memorable, transformative experiences in your scenes.
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: You can come alone or with a partner. During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. This helps simulate both established dynamics and pickup scene scenarios.
- Dress Code and Interactions: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. Expect to interact with others for the exercises, at least in terms of communication and light D/s. More physical practice will be saved for the jam afterwards. We do not pair people up, and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort ensuring that all are able to learn and grow. Couples can stay paired the whole time or practice with others if you so choose.
- This workshop is open to all gender identifications, sexual orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 18+.
- Refunds must be requested 7 days prior to the event.
- Doors open at 7:30pm and closes at 7:40 pm. Please be on time and text ahead if you are delayed.

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.
