EXPLORING

THE ART OF JOINING
with Janina Vivianne @janina_vivianne

How do you approach someone in a sex-positive space, or join an existing moment of cuddling, massage, or intimacy with respect and clarity? We will explore and practice ways of reaching out that feel good for everyone involved - direct, playful, and rooted in consent. Through somatic awareness, guided exercises, and role-plays, we work with boundaries, desires, verbal and non-verbal communication, and the courage it takes to give and receive clear answers.

WALK IN: LIVE POETRY PORTAITS
with anmutend @anmutend

Anja captures a moment of you in words – just as you are. Get your personal poem, written live on a typewriter. You are invited to share whatever feels present: a single word, a thought, a line from a song, or a glimpse of your story. From there, Anja listens and lets her intuition respond – translating what she senses into a poem. It is a timeless meeting on blank paper, where something of you becomes visible in black and white. A small piece to take with you – a moment held in words.
