HYBRID: Etiquette, Protocol, Ritual, and Ceremony

This class will be offered both in person at the Wicked Grounds Annex in San Francisco, and simultaneously as a live, online class offered through Zoom. Please select SF or online tickets when purchasing.

Maybe you’ve gone to a play party and wondered about how to behave. Maybe you have a long-term partner, but you’ve had tensions about when or when you’re not in a scene. These issues are the domain of Etiquette, Protocol, Ritual, and Ceremony. In this talk, we’ll cover each of those ideas, dive deep into their meanings, and attempt to establish a mindset of when to apply what behaviors.

PRESENTER:

He moved to the SF Bay Area to continue his journey in kink and sex education. @Noether identifies as a poly, queer, Leatherman and is focused on the psychology and philosophy of kink and the kink lifestyle.

TICKETING:

$15 - $35 in advance, or $20 - $40 at the door for in-person attendance.

We offer a sliding scale, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance.

The regular ticket is $25. This is what most people should pay.

The $15 ticket is offered for those for whom the $25 ticket would be a barrier to participation. If $25 is too much, we take your word for it! Just pay $15.

Have a great salary? Feeling generous? Paying at the $35 level allows us to make the discounted ticketing available to others who need it. :)

So - that's it! Choose the level you can comfortably afford.

If cost is a barrier at any point on the sliding scale, please use the Volunteer List at the bottom of the listing to request a scholarship seat.
