1800-FIX-OUR-K1NK: Navigating Relational Issues
1-800-FIX-OUR-K!NK is a workshop for anyone navigating the ups, downs, and emotional curveballs that come with engaging at the edge of power and intimacy.
Who is this workshop for? You don’t have to be part of a romantic couple to benefit. These tools are just as useful for spouses, klnk partners, and brand-new strangers you met five minutes ago at a party. Bring your lover, your platonic buddies, your online-dating match, frenemies-with-benefits, the entire polycule... or come solo!
It’s not if conflict arises—it’s when.
K!nky adventures come with high emotional stakes. You’re working with vulnerability, charge, and desire in places where we often barely know ourselves—let alone each other.
Friction is natural. It’s also where the growth happens.
This workshop is about making sure that friction brings you closer, not further apart.
Maybe your dynamic has gone quiet. Maybe your power exchange feels uneven. Maybe you're stuck in patterns where one of you wants to surrender but can’t let go—or someone wants to lead but can't get out of their head. Maybe scenes spark more fights than turn-ons.
Whatever the reason, you’re not broken. You just need better tools. We’ll explore how to repair connection, reboot power, and make your dynamic feel alive again—from the inside out.
After the workshop, we'll have an After-Hours where attendees can socialize - whether that's with new folks or focused on deepening the connection between you & who you came with.
Union Square Area - Address given in confirmation email additional info. This location is a walkup.
💡 What We’ll Explore:
🔧 Power Dynamics on Life Support
Learn how and why power dynamics collapse — and how to resuscitate them when they do.
💬 Desire as a Bridge, Not a Barrier
Practice communicating & using your wants, needs, and fantasies to create intimacy instead of distance.
🧠 Psychological Safety: The Secret Ingredient
Explore how trust, room to fail, and non-punitive mindsets transform your dynamic from brittle to resilient.
🤝 Negotiation, Aftercare, and the Art of Repair
Discover how these tools aren’t just for scenes — they’re crucial relationship-building rituals.
🔥 Fighting Fair, Loving Hard
Build skills for navigating conflict without throwing away your dynamic, your intimacy, or abandoning and compromising on your needs.
💡 Real Tools, Real Talk
Leave with practical frameworks, exercises, and scripts you can start using immediately to strengthen your connection.
We are having a 2-part evening of indulgence and learning. Come for the workshop and stay for the After-Hours to meet and optionally interact with other like-minded folks!
Workshop Format:
- Discussion and Practical Exercises: The workshop will include a mix of discussions and exercises. You'll have the chance to interact with others, practice communication techniques, and receive feedback.
- Solo and Group Work: You can come alone or with a partner. During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. This helps simulate both established dynamics and pickup scene scenarios.
- Dress Code and Interactions: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. Expect to interact with others for the exercises, at least in terms of communication and light dynamics. We do not pair people up, and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort ensuring that all are able to learn and grow. Couples can stay paired the whole time or practice with others if you so choose.
- This workshop is open to all gender identifications, sexual orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 21+.
- Refunds must be requested 7 days prior to the event.
- Doors open at 7:30pm and close at 7:40 pm. Please be on time and text ahead if you are delayed.
After-Hours After the Workshop:
After the workshop, the lights go down, the music goes up, and the setting transforms into a fun space where you can connect & mingle. Engage at your own comfort level—whether that means observing, casually chatting by the snacks, or engaging with others from the workshop.
Required Disclaimer: It should go without saying, but we are going to spell it out clearly nonetheless: klnk activities & intimacy are inherently risky. Safety is something that requires practice and cannot be guaranteed. By attending, you agree to participate at your own risk, conduct your own risk management, and agree to hold the event facilitators and facility harmless for any type of harm that may occur.
