Turn up the heat with this wax play workshop!About this Event
Wax play is a type of sensation play that explores the body's reaction to suspense, extreme heat, short bursts of stimulation, and sensory deprivation. This playful art has been known to create some of the most intense sexual scenes! It is important to understand safety, and the basics of sensory experiences before exploring wax play.
Violet will guide the class, sharing tips, tools, and exercises for self or partnered wax play. Then for the last 30 minutes participants will be guided to explore wax play with a partner, or on your own!
You'll learn:
- What is wax play?
- What the body feels when engaging in wax play
- What skin safe candles to buy
- How to intensify the experience with heat, tension, or incorporating power dynamics
- How to ensure your safety when engaging in this type of play
What you need to bring:
Please come along with a lover or a friend, someone you feel comfortable exploring with. In person ticket orders are set to a minimum of two (and maximum of 3) to ensure everyone has a partner to practice with.
??Candles and materials will be provided at the workshop for you to take home and will be factored into the cost of the ticket ??
Doors/Late Policy
Doors open at 6:45 PM and close sharply at 7:15PM. We ask you please try to be on time! You will NOT be let in after 7:15pm.
Educator Bio
Violet is a trauma-trained, queer, polyamorous sex educator and pleasure coach. She holds a B.A in human sexuality studies and psychology and was trained as a sex educator while facilitating sex-positive, pleasure-driven workshops for middle and high schoolers. She now works with adults and budding sex educators, creating affirming and inclusive spaces for education. By merging her academic background and personal experience, she learned how to cultivate power through her sexuality. Her mission today is to create a space for others to do the same.
