Dating can be challenging, add BDSM to the mix and it can be downright intimidating. In this workshop, we will identify and learn to implement effective strategies for meeting kinky people. Through self-reflection, we will figure out who we are and what our ideal relationship looks like. By looking at different relationship styles and different kink orientations, participants will be able to discover what they want from a relationship and who they are looking for in a partner.
This workshop will discuss common dating roadblocks and how to overcome them. Subjects such as confidence, starting conversations, how to handle mistakes, and some kink specific situations will be addressed. Participants will learn how to make a good impression at social events and how to go to where the kinky people are – both online and IRL.
We will cover a few different dating styles, including community involvement and online dating so that participants can use the approach that works best for them and their unique situation. Tips will be given throughout the workshop, including tips for neuroatypical people, shy people and those who need a confidence boost.
This workshop is presented in gender-neutral terms and is suitable for people of all genders, orientations and kink preferences.
