This Week with Wicked Grounds (1/9 - 1/18)

Howdy kinksters - I hope that this week is finding you as much as possible in your full power: resilient, fierce, and fully here for yourself and those you love. I have a firmly held life-long belief that being true to our creative and erotic selves brings power and presence to everything we do, and I’m committed to keep showing up for the ways that Wicked Grounds and I can help in your own erotic and creative journeys. We have a large and growing calendar of events. I’ll get out a new full roster of classes in the next few days, but let’s start by taking a look at the week ahead. This Week!Friday, Jan 9Online: Our Month of Mindfulness for Kinksters continues, and is our only live programming today. Late registration will be available all month. Saturday, Jan 10Online: Curious about the old leather guard and its impact on how we connect with Leather, kink, and BDSM today? You should hear all about it from one of the original OG: Hardy Haberman. Join Hardy online tonight for Old Guard Protocols and Why You Don’t Need Them.
