Sex-Positive Los Angeles (SPLA) and 910Weho invite you to join us for our Awesome Boundaries workshop for social, intimate, and kinky interactions…
As we emerge from the pandemic, and start becoming social again, boundaries are more important than ever…. not only for having beautifully sexy and loving connections, but also to feel safer in our interactions overall.
Have you said yes when you wanted to say no, said no when you wanted to say yes, and maybe when we really didn't mean it?
Have you pushed someone's boundaries, invaded their personal space or had yours invaded?
Maybe you’ve experienced conversations or touch you didn’t want or participated in something you weren’t a ‘HELL YES’ to…
Society often teaches us to go against our own boundaries in order to please others or to push hard for what you want, or a mix of both. This practical, intro workshop is a place to explore together how we each got to where we are today with our own boundaries and how to get to a better place setting our boundaries and respecting the boundaries of others.
During this workshop we’ll...
• Talk about what a boundary is, learn ways to get to know what your boundaries actually are, and determine if your boundaries need to be adjusted
• Learn how to say "no" clearly and how to respond to hearing one
• Learn how to explore safely using negotiation, changing our 'yes' to a 'no' when needed, while giving and getting feedback
• Learn ways to discuss your boundaries, not only in sexual situations, but also in casual scenarios
• Learn how to deal with someone who doesn't respect our boundaries
• Learn to better support the boundaries of others
• Have opportunities to practice and discuss boundary setting with other participants
There will be break outs into smaller groups for discussion and practice.
