A joint class with Marla of @polyamarla! 90 minute class, recording included if you can't join us live.

​

Do you feel like the buzzwords of non-monogamy (NM) can range from being super helpful, to entirely confusing when trying to communicate? Are you frustrated by the tone of moral superiority that surrounds certain words or concepts when they come up in community or online? You are certainly not alone!

​

Marla (NM therapist & educator) and Laura (NM relationship coach, author and educator) are here to share their ‘takes’ on some contentious NM buzzwords. They’ll discuss definitions, and provide strategies for communicating as clearly and effectively as possible in your relationships - even if it means still using some of that jargon.

​

Full details and tickets are here.

Relationship Anarchy has gained in public awareness in recent years - but not without the generation of myths and misunderstandings about this philosophy of engaging in relationships.

Join Laura for a 90-minute workshop wherein she will:

• Bust some of those myths

• Define and give the history of relationship anarchy, including contextualizing it with political anarchist movements

• Briefly look at the RA Manifesto

• Discuss the practicalities of relating from the basis of this philosophical framework, using her own experiences as well as those of others who have given permission to share their stories during this workshop. (what does it really mean to individually build your relationships from an RA lens? Do we get a smorgasbord worksheet out every time we make a new acquaintance? What about when we want commitments and stability with partners? Hasn't Laura been with one of her partners for nearly a decade?)

• Consider whether Relationship Anarchy is a kind of polyamory, or even rightly a kind of non-monogamy, and how we contextualize that question

• Look at the positives to an RA approach to relating

• and answer audience questions.

An announcement for an event the evening of the 15th is coming!

Many people get involved in age play for either nurturing or dark dynamics that fit very classic Daddy/girl, Mommy/boy dynamics, and while these are beautiful and interesting, this class is half about playing specific narrative scenes within those dynamics, for folks trying on these roles who need some inspiration on how to play them; and half about age play scenes totally outside that dynamic - Bigs who are coaches, grandparents, teachers, aunts, other authority figures - or scenes where littles play together in power exchange.

​

As a teacher in multiple dynamics that sometimes involve age play in our play, including switching in a little-for-little dynamic, I love sharing inspiration for many narrative directions these kinds of scenes can take and opening the floor to a few minutes of shared discussion for folks to share their inspiration and experience to close the class.
