Erotic Shame & Humiliation
In our day-to-day lives, we usually try to avoid the feeling of shame at all costs.
But shame as a conscious and consensual tool to play with humiliation in a kink context can be very delicious, hot, and ultimately very satisfying. Shame play and humiliation are considered psychological play and can be very powerful types of engaging in kink for all people involved.
So how do you play with shame and humiliation in a good, positive, and empowering way?
How do you welcome a feeling that you would usually try to avoid and how do you hold space for a person that is experiencing shame?
In this course, Emma Steel - together with her lovely assistant Miss Tobi - dives deep into her favorite topic.
Her knowledge of kink and her training in psychology will help you understand and navigate this topic and find your way into playing with shame.
This course will cover:
- How to recognize and understand shame
- How shame feels in your body?
- Roles within shame play
- How to work with unwelcome shame and trauma
- Boundaries, Consent, Negotiation, and Aftercare
- How to initiate playing with shame
Kink & Trauma
Trauma is a is a big word. Trauma is part of life and "trauma transformation" can stand for the idea that wounds can heal. Some of us use BDSM techniques to make that kind of change happen. This workshop gives you a glimpse into how that is possible, what to be aware of and why the body is key.
This course is designed for everyone from beginner to expert who is interested in the topic either for themselves or wish to acquire knowledge of how to play with others better.

Boundaries, Consent & Negotiation
Society's structures are filled with rules, law, regulations and judgements on how each person is expected to behave and carry themselves.
What happens when those rules have been broken?
What happens when you were not taught the rules? Or if you were shown things that are counter intuitive to you?
This course is designed for anyone searching for ways to understand their boundaries, how to find consent and to negotiate from a safe(r) perspective in respect to kink play and its potentially complex dynamics.
