Intimacy Rituals

Dance, Kink & Devotional Play

Immersion Details

This immersion is designed for dancers who want to explore kink, and kinsters who want to explore dance. It’s a welcoming space for curious newbies and a fertile ground for experienced adventurers to create new connections. This space welcomes and uplifts resilient identities. Z is a trans, queer, kinky, poly human who welcomes all of us to free ourselves from gender and social conditioning.

What is kink? Sexual desires, behaviors, and identities, that challenge social approval, giving you the opportunity to explore your courage, shame, pleasure, and liberation. 

Kink is discovering who you really are as you unveil who you have been told to be. Kink is deconstructing the ways you have learned race, gender, beauty, and other social ranking. Kink is bravely creating attunement and trust, by making space to want what you want, to be your true nature, and to belong to something bigger than society, to belong to spirit.

This immersion is a sacred ritual space to come home to our bodies, our eros, our natural tendency to share aliveness and joy in community. This is a space to explore your edgy intimacy desires… Oh that turns you on? You still belong. You are still welcome. You are still beautiful and trustworthy. This is a supportive space to play with power, to heal your relationship with Dominance and submission. 

This is the intended arc for our time together which may evolve based on what will best serve the group.

  • Pre-Immersion: What is secure attachment? What are your intentions for your relational life?
  • Day 1: Welcome. Intentions. Embodied rituals exploring Dominance & submission.
  • Day 2: Energetic erotic consent. Shifting from pattern to presence. Deepening power exchange through presence.
  • Day 3: Devotion through breath & energy orgasm.
  • Day 4: Fantasy. Shame resilience. Asking for what you want… on & off the dance floor!
