Getting better: (Re)building intimacy with a partner (EN)

About this event

Get to know your partner in new ways during this safely held day of exploration.

Through guided exercises and open-hearted exploration, we will create a safe and inclusive space to cultivate trust, curiosity, and playfulness; whether you're rekindling a long-standing connection or navigating new beginnings.

During this workshop you will start to get to know your bodies' communication styles, so that you can make more conscious choices about what you do and don't want to do. We will give special attention to how to communicate those desires and boundaries to your partner(s).

The method we will be using during is the Wheel of Consent by Betty Martin, which means it will be highly experiential, gently paced and designed to help you make choices that work best for (all of) you.

We will slow down, take time and space to feel and thus build a more authentic connection with ourselves, and through that, with the other(s).

❧ FAQ's
🧡 What if I don't want to do an exercise?
I am very explicit in offering different ways in which you can join in each exercise. Those options always include sitting to the side and witnessing, journalling or having a rest. You decide what feels good to you in each moment, and we make space for you to make that decision.

💛 Is this going to be very intense?
Doing new things is always intense. I have found that slowing down is a key ingredient in being able to feel and ask for what we want. So while the exercises might bring up emotions or breakthroughs, I make sure we go slow and take small steps. There will be breaks roughly every 90 minutes. There will also be a non-engagement zone, where yo can go and sit if you want to be left alone for a bit.

💚 How accessible is the space?
This space is located on the 1st floor. Unfortunately the studio is not accessible with wheelchair. We will provide cushions, mats and chairs for sitting. Please get in touch if you need more information or have concerns.

💙 I can't afford it. Are there discounts available?
There are discounted places available for those on low income. You can just choose that option when buying your ticket. We don't need you to explain or proof anything.
Still can't afford to come? Get in touch to talk options.
