Trauma Informed Negotiation and Consent

More and more, our society continues to understand how trauma shapes our very lives and relationships. This is especially true in the leather, kink, and BDSM communities as we consider what to do if a partner becomes "triggered." Join cody as they unpack the meanings behind "trauma," "negotiation," and "consent" and facilitate interactive discussion of how we may navigate discussions of negotiation and consent with trauma in mind. The purpose of this discussion is for participants to begin understanding how trauma can unexpectedly rear its head in relationships and play, and what steps they can take to adequately prepare and address those situations when they arise. Important Note - The discussion is a safe space; however, given the nature of the class's theme, you are strongly encouraged to prepare a respite plan/aftercare routine ahead of time.
