KinkCPR is a dynamic, inclusive workshop designed to equip participants with harm reduction tools and trauma-informed strategies to support safety, consent, and connection in BDSM and kink spaces. Whether you're a seasoned player or just beginning to explore, this session centers the emotional, physical, and psychological well-being of everyone involved in kink play.
We’ll cover real-world scenarios, explore ways to navigate intense dynamics, and provide practical techniques to recognize, respond to, and recover from physical and emotional red flags. From creating safer containers for high-intensity scenes to aftercare that truly lands, KinkCPR helps you play with power — not just safely, but ethically and sustainably.
