WEDNESDAY 14.05 | 12PM - 3PM | WORKSHOP

INTERPERSONAL NEUROBIOLOGY OF EROTIC GROWTH

WITH INTERACTIVE EROTIC EDUCATION

AN AUSTRALIAN SCHOOL OF SEXUALITY EVENT
 

This three hour workshop will take you through an experiential exploration of how the nine domains of integration as described by Dan Siegel in the powerhouse interdisciplinary framework of Interpersonal Neurobiology relate to the erotic realm in their own lives. Coming away with a felt sense of this lens of understanding within your own bodymind will equip participants with a new tool to apply to support erotic growth within themselves, their partner’s, their client’s or student’s.

 

Taught by three of the facilitators of the new Interactive Erotic Education Training, this workshop synthesises knowledge from a range of therapeutic, theoretical and teaching modalities. Lorraine, Jules and Sam are somatic sex educators and somatic therapists with backgrounds in sex work. A core tenet of their teaching practice is that growth happens through relationships - come expecting to interact with the stories and experiences of other attendees. You are, of course, welcome to participate to the extent that feels best for you.

 

As this workshop invites you to bring personal material and your in the moment experience, feel into what might be useful to bracket, and what feels useful to bring into a workshop space. In any case, prepare to get geeky, cheeky, freaky, and perhaps a bit leaky. All experiences are welcome.

Tokyo Intensive S2_edited.jpg

FRIDAY 16.05 | 10AM - 2PM | INTENSIVE

MINDFUL CONSENT

WITH MISTRESS TOKYO

AN AUSTRALIAN SCHOOL OF SEXUALITY EVENT

​

Want to do a deep dive into consent for BDSM? Join Mistress Tokyo for a 4 hour intensive on the Mindful Consent model.

 

Mindful Consent is a powerful new framework, focusing on embodied consent and what can be understood about consent from the autonomic nervous system. We will define and describe consent, talk through what it looks like and doesn’t look like, and unpack how to negotiate it in a BDSM context.  We will also talk red flags and harm minimisation strategies.

 

Mistress Tokyo will also be presenting an 2 hour introduction to Mindful Consent at the ASSFEST M25 Immersion weekend. This intensive is a deeper dive into the material and an opportunity to immerse yourself in consent before attending the big weekend!

 

"If you are familiar with my work, know that I'm really excited to be presenting a totally brand-new component of Mindful Consent in Naarm at this ASSFEST. I look forward to working with all who join me for this immersive experience."
