This Week with Wicked Grounds (12/11 - 12/21)


Hello kinksters -

As we approach the closing of the year, we have some great classes & social events for you. We hope you’ll take some time out from the hustle and bustle to engage in some sexy learning! All of our online classes this week are recorded for viewing within a week of the class date, so if your week is packed with holiday cheer you can still make time for classes on everything from long distance polyamory to oral pleasure.

Already thinking about your new year’s resolutions? You might want to join your fellow kinksters for our third annual Month of Mindfulness for Kinksters in January. We’ll share a full month of meditation sessions & techniques, journaling and other self-care to start off the new year right.

Now, let’s get into what’s happening this week!
