🌸 Soft Space: Consent Workshop + Intro to Cuddling
For Women & Non-Gender Conforming Folks
🕯️ July 5, 2025 | 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM | New Haven, CT
✨ Come home to softness. Stay for the safety. ✨
This is more than a workshop — it’s a space to unlearn pressure, relearn your “no,” and celebrate your right to be held gently. Whether you’re curious about consensual cuddling or just craving community rooted in care, this evening is for you.
Together, we’ll explore:
💬 Foundations of Consent – beyond “yes” and “no”
🛑 Building Boundaries – and learning to express them with confidence
🧸 Intro to Platonic Cuddling – what it is (and isn’t), plus optional guided practice
🫖 Cozy tea, grounding snacks, soft music & an always-available quiet corner
This space is intentionally created for women and non-gender conforming folks, including trans and nonbinary participants who feel aligned with those experiences. All touch is completely optional, communication-based, and always reversible.
💖 Come solo or with a friend. Come exactly as you are.

Frequently asked questions
This event is open to women and non-gender conforming folks, including trans women, nonbinary people, genderqueer folks, and others who identify with or feel aligned with feminine and fluid gender experiences. We center softness, safety, and shared understanding in how we gather.
Not at all. All touch is 100% optional, opt-in, and guided with ongoing consent. You are warmly welcomed whether you want to engage in cuddling, observe, journal quietly, or simply enjoy the space and community. Consent begins with you.
That’s completely normal — and welcome. This event is designed for folks who might feel unsure about physical closeness, boundaries, or being in community spaces. You’ll be supported every step of the way, and we’ll never ask you to do anything you’re not comfortable with.
Absolutely. Many participants will be coming solo. We’ll create a soft, welcoming atmosphere that encourages new connections without pressure. There’s no expectation to interact more than you feel ready for.
Yes — enthusiastically, lovingly yes. This is a queer-affirming, trans-inclusive, and body-positive environment where all identities and experiences are held with care.
Wear whatever makes you feel cozy, safe, and yourself — think soft layers, socks, sweaters, or whatever helps you relax. You may want to bring: • A water bottle • A journal or notebook (optional) • Your favorite cushion, blanket, or fuzzy friend (optional but welcome)
Yes! We’ll have light snacks, herbal teas, and cozy drinks available throughout the event. Please let us know in advance if you have any allergies or dietary needs.
We’ve built this space with care — but we understand emotions can come up. There will always be a quiet corner available, and trained facilitators are present to offer support if needed. You’re encouraged to take breaks whenever you need.
No. This is a non-sexual, non-romantic space focused on consensual platonic connection and emotional safety. Cuddling here is a form of mutual care, not flirtation or intimacy beyond consented boundaries.
