"Never tame your demons - always keep them on a leash"

Some desires whisper. Others scream. And some—the ones you quiver to think about, let alone name aloud—are the ones most desperate to be understood.

Dark Depraved Desire is an experience for anyone yearning to peer into the abyss and explore the darker depths of craving. We’ll discuss high-intensity psychological and/or physical scenes - AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - HOW TO ENGAGE RESPONSIBLY!!! Careful consideration is mandatory whether you are the top or bottom - or whether they’re your desires or someone else’s.

You have no say in what you desire - only in what you do with it. So cut yourself some slack, look past shame, and allow yourself to be honest about what sends shivers down your spine. Whether you crave humiliation, power imbalance, objectification, fear play, or other taboo expressions, this space invites you to shine light on your desires. You'll learn how (and why!) to give them permission not just for cheap thrill - but to scratch an important itch of the soul. After all, “the cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek”.

💡 What We’ll Explore

🍎 The Forbidden Fruit… and Its Nutritional Value

Explore why taboo desires can hold so much power—and what they might reveal about our deeper needs, beliefs, and inner worlds.

🧊 The Iceberg Meditation

Go beneath the surface of a desire to discover what else might be hiding underneath. Sometimes what we think we want is only the tip of the iceberg.

💬 Difficult Desire Disclosure

Practice bringing vulnerable, taboo, or intimidating desires into conversation—and learn how to receive someone else’s desires with curiosity, care, and discernment.

🛠️ Crafting Safe(r) Containers

Dark desires deserve thoughtful containers. Explore how we can manage risks and unknowns, build psychological safety, and create conditions where intense desires can be expressed in healthier, more intentional ways.

🔥 Expression

Explore how dark, taboo, and high-intensity desires can be translated into experiences that preserve what makes them exciting while remaining rooted in consent, care, and mutuality.

🧠 Psycho-Somatic Scene Design

Explore the relationship between mind and body—and how we can craft scenes that teleport you into a totally different headspace.

❤️‍🩹 Aftercare & Integration

Learn how to come back to center after intensity, tend to yourself and one another, and integrate what an experience stirred up rather than simply walking away from it.

We are having a 2-part evening of indulgence and learning. Come for the workshop and stay for the Jam to practice what you learned and meet other like-minded folks!

Workshop Details:

• Feel Free to Take Notes! If it helps you learn, we encourage you to bring a notepad to jot notes and reflections

• Who Can Come: This workshop is open to all gender identifications, orientations, lifestyles, singles and couples. All experience levels welcome. 21+

Jam After the Workshop:

Stick around for our jam session. This is your chance to put what you’ve learned into action, trying out your new skills on dungeon furniture in a supportive setting. The lights go down, the music goes up, snacks come out, and the “playground” opens! Nix will be available for feedback, scenes, or additional guidance to solidify the workshop’s learning in a hands-on learning environment. Participate at your own comfort level - whether that means observing, chatting, or exploring with others.
