Learn all about consent and kink scene negotiation in this online workshop, including how to use Wiley Wolfe's SMARTS negotiation acronym!
What is consent in BDSM? How do we navigate consent and negotiation when we want to play with someone?
This workshop explores how real-world consent functions before, during, and after a scene, as well as how to apply Wiley Wolfe's SMARTS acronym (Safety, Medical, Aftercare, Relationship Expectations, Turn Ons & Thresholds, Scene Goals) for a practical, actionable tool to negotiate with confidence. You'll leave ready to build scenes that are both satisfying and responsible.
We Will Cover:
Common consent frameworks, their applications, and their limitations
Different types of consent that you may will encounter in scenes and dynamics
What affects consent in interpersonal dynamics and specific contexts
What to do if your consent is violated or a boundary is crossed
How consent looks during a scene
Negotiation containers and tips to reduce pressure, manage awkward moments, and use negotiation as a sexy anticipation-builder instead of a mood-killer
How to handle "micro-scene" negotiation like if you're asked to spank someone a few times real quick at a party
A deep dive of the SMARTS negotiation acronym, the questions it can include, and how to use it
This workshop will also include a free neogtiation guide handout to empower all your future scenes.
