The first workshop is open to everyone. After that, you can spontaneously decide which of the three workshops you want to attend. In the middle and at the end of the day we all meet in the big room for further information and a short sharing. The program is subject to change.
We have three rooms, a small sauna, a kitchen and garden, as well as three showers/toilets.
The anteroom of the sauna is also used for workshops. It may happen that for the workshops the rooms are spontaneously swapped if it makes sense due to the number of participants. Please be in the respective room 5 minutes before the start of the workshop so that we can assess whether rooms need to be changed.
On Saturday evening the rooms (play space, energy space, kitchen, garden and sauna) are available to all participants until 10:30 pm to play and relax.
To visualize how much physical closeness and eroticism a workshop can contain, we use a color scale, which we depict as a spectrum:

BEGRÜSSUNG & AUSZIEHRITUAL

PERMISSION PLAYGROUND
with SIMON (e)
Discover your deepest desires and playfully give yourself permission to ask for what you truly want.
This workshops supports you to embrace the art of saying "yes" to yourself and "no" when needed.
So often we are in situations where we don't know what we desire, what we want and what we don't. This workshops creates a fun a playful space that give you the tools to be in the festival with as much joy and permission as possible. We're here to spark connections, shed shame, and conquer your fears. Join in for an empowering experience.
NICE TO HAVE YOU!
with TIBERIUS (d)
Arrive, become touchable and enter into encounter.
I pick you up and accompany you to arrive here in the body and to perceive yourself. After the self-awareness, I invite you to get in touch with the partner experience and to feel your body sensation with partners. - How do I experience myself through touch with a partner (eyes, fingers, hands)? Can I rediscover stability, flexibility, responsibility or confiding in myself (and expand my boundaries)?
WISHES & INTENTIONS
with CHRISTIAN (d/e)
With what intentions and longings do I go into the weekend? What do I hope for? What do I bring with me for the group? We deal with these questions individually - but also in exchange with the group.
Unlike most other workshops, this part takes place without touching and direct interaction with the other participants.

playFULNESS RITUAL
with LOVE DRAGON
A safe ritual for lovers, dancers, warriors, cuddlers, inner children and animals to meet each other protected by a circle of compassionate witnesses. Follow your intentions. Let’s listen to our bodies’ wisdom. No previous experience necessary.
Body Language
with TAMER & BAKRY (d/f/e)
Let's reclaim our physical space and reconnect through healing movements and compassion for ourselves. The goal of the workshop is to allow expression of our own bodies to facilitate contact with our own resilience.
Together we will experience how music and movement reshape our emotions and sense of connection. Come for a shared experience of where dance ends and meditation begins - and to explore a little challenge.
The Sensual work: Ropes
with LUKA (d/e)
Ropes offer a sensual quality apart from bondage and Shibari. In this space you will explore those possibilities with ropes, their feel and impact on our largest erotic organ, the skin. Mindful for the other person and their wellbeing you will try different techniques.

Eros PLAY
with JULIAN (d/e)
In each round you will meet another man with whom you can spend six minutes with clear rules and without talking. It's up to the two of you to decide what the interaction will look like. The game can include (safer) sexual interaction, but you can also just dance, fight, or cuddle. Use this opportunity to honestly follow your impulses and reactions and stay true to yourself in every moment without losing connection with your partner.
INtention Of Touch
with P!NTO (e)
In this workshop we will practise putting intention in our touch without words. We will explore the joy of touching and being touched. I invite you to create a slow exploration together, avoiding performances or pre-rehearsed scripts, to reach an imaginary place that will bring great pleasure to the receiver and also to the explorer.
Let's do a 50/50 game where you will give and receive at the same time - using different kinds of strokes and pressures moving continuously and slowly.
Then you can create your own small undressing ritual…
ANAL EXPLORATION
mit JASON (e)
How well do you know your ass hole? We grow up with so much shame around our anuses, even the most practiced bottoms may still not offer their anus the love and appreciation it deserves.
How does one come into right relation with his ass, in order to unlock deeper realms of anal pleasure and bliss?
We will use breathing techniques and an anal self-massage ritual to explore all the pleasure your ass is capable of, going slowly and creating a strong container of safety and trust.
Please be freshly showered and bring a towel to lie on.
