BDSM and Kink Sexuality Classes for Conferences and Events
Since 2013, TouchDeep (he/him) and HeartBound (she/her) have brought their highly-engaging, authentic style of presenting to dozens of events across the United States.
They offer pretense-free, down-to-earth classes that are superbly organized, fully researched, and ultra-authentic.
They love what they do (and each other: they’re lifetime-committed polyamorous partners), and it shows in every way.
Their classes center around creating deep human connection, sensual touch, and exploring the sacred sexual completeness of the body/mind/spirit relationship (but without all of that “woo” talk!), all within the context of BDSM and kink.

Creating Deep Connection For Play
NEW!
CLASS DESCRIPTION
You’ve negotiated a scene and you’re about to do something remarkably intimate with someone. Great! But mind-blowing, deeply satisfying scenes start with a strong connection to your partner. Making—and keeping—that connection requires deliberate, intentional action. It takes more than negotiation. Negotiation gets into our heads. Deep connection gets into our hearts. Do connection well, and you’ll be present to each other on a deep, intense level.
We’ll journey into the what and the why of getting in touch with your and your partner’s deepest needs and desires—those things that burn within you to be satisfied—and how to create emotional safety to speak them out loud; finding language to describe the needs, desires, and feelings that are at the heart of your sexual self; and the role of giving, receiving, and building trust to create transcendent, transformative, intentional experiences in BDSM play!
In this class you’re going to see and experience the physical, the emotional, and yes, even the spiritual techniques that can lead to deep, powerful play and intense, unbridled, primal experiences. The result? Everyone feels safe and secure; it’s a more compassionate, forgiving experience; intimacy happens; conscious thought is suspended; and play flows like a song!
Come with a partner or find one during the class.
No late admission.
