B. Sanguinaria

* “Whatever pleases you, Madam!” eloquency gets you a head start
* “What is the magic word?” playing with clichés
* Putting your foot down be present with a strong voice
* Ready-wit be as sharp as a blade
* Talk dirty to me and how do I dare to open my mouth?
As always, experience levels and areas of interest determine the focus topics of this workshop.
Fun is guaranteed.

Power Situations
Felix Ruckert
Berlin |
This workshop is about the emotional effects of spatial relations. It deals with such subjects as closeness and distance, the individual and the group, spatial hierachies, control and surrender, intimacy and reserve. Our position in space, our body language, our attitude and focus are creative tools in the non-verbal communication with others. Simple physical exercises draw the attention to the dynamics created by spatial relations and in contact with others. They also help to perceive the emotions that are inevitably triggered in this process.

Sensory Deprivation
Hagen
Berlin |
Here you will learn all about the infinite possibilities of sensory deprivation, from the simple covering of the eyes to the complete mummification. Out of the overabundance of stimuli in daily life, the recipient is projected into a silent cosmos, where he alone exists and where all his attention is directed toward inside. As the borders between the real and the imagined become blurred and the feeling for time and the material world becomes lost, longer sessions can cause changes in awareness. Therefore it is important to agree on a certain length of time beforehand.

Learning the Ropes
Hagen
Berlin |
The basics of erotic bondage.
The joy of bondage consists of the fact that the person who is tied up can completely let go, fall into his/her feelings and just accept what the partner is doing. She/he no longer has to think about her/his own performance as a lover of feel guilty about being passive. The person who is actively binding feels lust because of the total power over the partner. The increase of power frees him/her of inhibitions just as powerlessness liverates the person who is bound. To play with bondage absolute trust is a must:
responsibility on one side and the ability to abandon on the other.

Tickling & Bastonade
delta® & C.D.
Berlin |
Our feet are both robust and extremely sensitive.
The torturers in former times used this knowledge to give convicts draconian punishment with a cane on the sole. This punishment was extraordinarily painful, but it didn´t leave any traces.
Even today, the classic “Bastonade” is often used to bring pain through the sole of the foot to the whole body. Foot torture is however much more than the simple use of a cane. Torture starts for everyone at a different point. For some of us, tickling may be much more torture than anything else.
This Workshop will provide many nasty ideas for different methods of torturing.

Play Piercing
Paula L. Rosengarthen |
At first the idea of needles through the skin produces fear and disgust in most people. In a play piercing, sterile needles – often hypodermic needles – are usually inserted into the top layers of skin. These wounds heal without leaving permanent marks. In contrary to what most people believe Play Piercing does not hurt very much after the first short moment of insertion. The interest in Play Piercing lies more in the symbolic connotation that a penetration of the skin implies. All penetration of skin entails the potential risk of infection or trauma and requires extreme caution. In this workshop Paula will show how you can introduce needles sensually and playfully into your love life and will give practical tips for use, safety and hygiene.

Live out your sexual fantasies:
Exhibitionism/Voyeurism, Crossdressing/Gender-Play, Gangbang/All against One
T.E. |
To make sex work well, a scenario very different from the one actually experienced might run in the minds of the partners. Because of shame or fear a lot of fantasies remain repressed and the actual sex life becomes shallow. Within the safe framework of this workshop the participants have the opportunity to tell which ideas really turn them on and to hear and experience the fantasies of others. With the agreement of the participants and in the framework of the legal possiblities, fantasies can be acted out. The protagonists will have the chance to experience to what extent they really wish to live those fantasies. (No obligation to consumate! ) Very often the acting out of a fantasy is less frightening than imagined. Maybe some participants might discover that keeping fantasies a secret only helps them to avoid expressing what they really want in their current sex life. Allowing oneself to follow an utopic idea is a step on the path to more authenticity and may liberate one from feelings of guilt. Playful handling of sexual fantasies releases us from the effort of repressing them and makes us accept ourselves with those fantasies. This will prevent these particular practices from becoming obsessions and controlling us, from performing them compulsively, and from damaging ourselves or others. Accepting and Noticing-what-is are the way to the Self.
This workshop is not an introduction to swinger clubs or gangbang parties. It is about putting sexual fantasies into perspective by experiencing and observing them. Everyone who wishes can bring in and act out his or her specific fantasy. To people in relationships it offers an opportunity to try things they can not do or do not dare to do as a couple. Participants might play roles in the scenarios of others as long as these scenes stay within their limits or even match their own fantasies.
Due to the limited time of the course not all ideas will be put into practice, but one might be surprised by the fact that many fantasies are very similiar.
For each workshop day Dorothea will propose a main topic:
Exhibitionism/Voyeurism
Cross Dressing / Gender-Play
Gangbang / All against One
