Step into a space of exploration where curiosity meets presence. This workshop invites you to slow down, tune in, and discover the subtle power of your own energy—whether you’re solo or arriving with a partner.

Expect a safe, fully clothed environment where connection begins from within.

**This Introduction to Tantra workshop is facilitated by James Kinghorn of Maya Rituals.** 

&nbsp;

***James is an ISTA trained Tantra Facilitator, holding space for people to explore their authentic desires with confidence through events such as cacao ceremonies, tantra temples and healing mud baths.***

***James loves life and all gifts from mother nature.***

***Dancing, moving, shaking and connecting with his inner child in nature makes him feel alive***

What to expect

Rooted in the idea that authentic connection starts with self-awareness, this experience offers a chance to meet yourself more honestly—so that any connection with others becomes deeper, clearer, and more intentional.

Guided by James, you’ll **explore the origins of tantra** and how its principles show up in modern spaces—including those familiar to kink and conscious intimacy communities. Together, we’ll touch on **boundaries, consent, desire, and the edges of vulnerability—**essential tools for any meaningful exploration.

From there, we’ll ease into a **playful taster of neo-tantric practices.** Expect gentle, interactive exercises including:

- **movement**
- **breath**
- **light touch**
- **conscious connection practices**
- **eye-gazing meditation**
- **space to notice what arises in your body and awareness** 
- **grounded sharing circle**

You'll then be invited to wind down, connect and socialise with the group over some delicious vegan food.

This workshop is perfect for the tantra-curious, especially those from kink spaces who want to explore connection, energy, and presence in a slower, more mindful way—without pressure or performance.

🌈 This is a fully inclusive space. You’re invited to show up exactly as you are. All genders, orientations, identities, backgrounds, and expressions are warmly welcomed.

**This workshop will take place in the Sub in the City Studio in Bournemouth, BH1. Full address confirmed upon booking.**

Sub in the City  - Erotic Impact Play Workshop 

 Immerse yourself in a decadent journey of sensuality and skill at Sub in the City’s Erotic Impact Play Workshop

Erotic Impact Play Workshop 

**Sunday 10th May 3-5pm 2026 - Bournemouth, BH1**

&nbsp;

**Aftercare: A practice of Grounding After Intense Play**

High-intensity scenes can take us into altered space – physically, emotionally and psychologically. Whether you’re exploring D/s dynamics, impact, rope, primal play or other forms of kink, what happens after the scene matters just as much as what happens within it. 

&nbsp;

Aftercare isn’t just a cuddle or a glass of water. 

At its core, aftercare is a bridge. It’s an intentional practice that helps you return to a sense of groundedness and steadiness. It allows you to stay in the pleasure and connection a little longer, while gently re-entering the world.

&nbsp;

This workshop is designed for those new to kink, exploring power exchange, or curious about building safer, more grounded play. 

&nbsp;

Your facilitator is experienced kinkster and educator, Alice Nan!

&nbsp;

***Alice has been part of the kink community for many years, both in the UK & NYC. Their approach is rooted in lived experience, ongoing learning, and active participation in community spaces. They’re passionate about creating spaces where curiosity feels safe, connection is intentional and people are supported in engaging with kink in ways that feel authentic and sustainable for them.***

&nbsp;

***Alice shares ongoing reflections on kink on Instagram: @alicenan_***

&nbsp;

In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore:

- What aftercare really is an who it’s for (hint: everyone)
- What happens in the body during high-intensity scenes
- Why “drop” happens and how to recognize it
- Practical ways aftercare can look across different scenarios
- How to negotiate and agree aftercare before you play
- The difference between aftercare and trigger care

Through discussion, guided reflection and small group exercises, you’ll build confidence in identifying what aftercare looks like for you and how to communicate that clearly. 

&nbsp;

Aftercare is not an optional extra. It transforms intense experiences into opportunities for deeper connection and supports safer, more sustainable play.

Rope Scenes for D/s Dynamics 

Elisha Swift 

Absolutely wonderful session. Jennifer has a bubbly, playful personality that kept me engaged and entertained throughout. I attended with my friend who I’ve dabbled in rope play with in the past and it bought a deeper level of intimacy to our dynamic, helped me to understand my body and to understand the importance of safety, boundaries and communication, whether that’s verbal or non verbal. Thoroughly enjoyed the session. I mentioned this at the time but I’ll say again, I’m almost never ‘calm’, my exterior is but my mind is always overthinking, I was so calm, present and at peace in this session so kudos to ya’ll. the whole weekend filled my soul with love and connection. 

For aspiring or exploring Doms and subs who would like to learn how to use rope in their dynamic to create exciting and intentional scenes for play. 

Ever feel like you don’t have the time to properly get into your Dom/sub dynamic? Perhaps you keep talking about starting but never get around to it? Does it currently feel like it will always be a fantasy but never a reality?

  


How about an entire 2 days dedicated to building your ideal D/s Dynamic? Join us at the Sub in the City Studio for this 2-day intensive as we explore experiential workshops dedicated to supporting you in building a power exchange that really works for you. 

  


This weekend will be jam packed full of educational and experiential classes and workshops for you to really step into your Dom/subspace and co-create something unique to you. 

  


This weekend is for couples or Dom/sub duos who are consciously exploring power exchange dynamics and wish to deepen their exploration. We welcome all experience levels, whether you’re just dipping your toes into the world of kink for the first time, or you’ve been exploring for a while, this weekend is designed to help you connect, communicate, explore and play in a fully immersive environment without the outside noise of every day life. 

  


**What to expect**

  


**Saturday**

  


We will kick off the weekend on Saturday morning with an opening cacao ceremony - our approach to kink is a conscious one, and this will allow us to set the scene and expectations for what will be an immersive weekend. 

  


We’ll then dive into understanding what *authentic* Dominance and submission looks like to you - not what you think it *should be*, not what you see in the movies or porn, but what *feels good* and *real* for you. This is also the time to explore what your biggest challenges are, where there might be any lingering resistance, and how to feel confident in communicating your desires to each other so you can build something that sets your souls on fire!

  


Next, we lay the foundations for the fun part - building your ultimate kinky scene! Whether you already have exciting playtime, or you’re stuck for inspiration, we’ll show you how to think outside the box when it comes to planning spicy scenes for play, and then guide you to create your own! 

  


Once you’re feeling warmed up, we’ll dive into some practical skills sessions, exploring Impact and Sensation Play. Whatever sensations you enjoy, this session is about understanding how to play with pain and pleasure in an erotic way that feels delicious for both of you. Watch a detailed live demo with Master Carlos and get hands-on guidance with a variety of tools that will invite you to get out of your head and into your body and really surrender. 

  


Saturday night you’ll be welcomed back to the Dungeon for our evening dungeon party where you can mix and mingle with other community members. Have a drink and a chat, and have the freedom to explore the dungeon further and practice what you’ve learnt that day. This evening event is a social and kink play only, it is not a sex party. 

  


**Sunday**

  


On Sunday, we dive into even more workshops to continue to build upon your dynamic, starting with creating rules, rituals and structure that are most suited to your style of Dominance and submission. Whether you see your dynamic as something you do in the bedroom only, or you’re looking to live it 24/7, this workshop will help you map out structure that feels realistic to your lifestyle and builds consistency. 

We’ll then give you some extra practical skills as our resident rope facilitator Talulah Teal will show you how you can use rope bondage to enhance your D/s scenes. You’ll be shown how to tie safely and in a way that explores rope as a sensation tool as much as a restraint tool. 

  


Adding this skill to your repertoire will give you a variety of different options to explore when it comes to building exciting BDSM Scenes. You’ll have some free time to explore these new skills and layer in everything else you’ve learnt too. 

  


As the weekend begins to draw to a close, we’ll start to wind down with an Aftercare workshop and session with our resident facilitator Alice Nan - we’ll explore what aftercare looks like and means to you, so you can continue to build your dynamic in a safe and nourishing way. 

  


We’ll end with a closing circle and Q&A to set you up for success when you go home. 

  


This weekend is limited to a maximum of 10 couples to ensure you get dedicated time and support.
