Follow this link to view our Negotiation 101 (part of our Kink 101 series) on YouTube!

A huge thanks to all our patrons; we couldn't have made this class available without each and every one of you. 

Negotiating is a critical skill for building BDSM scenes, dynamics and relationships that work. But negotiating doesn't necessarily come naturally -- especially for those of us who are just entering the kink scene.

Join us for a Kink 101 session on how to negotiate for exactly what you want in BDSM scene and relationships. We'll talk about:

• Negotiation styles
  
• Pre-scene negotiations
  
• How to negotiate without killing the mood
  
• Checking in during and after the scene
  
• Negotiating and check-ins for ongoing BDSM dynamics

Drawing on tools from non-violent communication, neuro-linguistic programming, and even a bit of marketing and PR, we'll learn how to negotiate as partners toward a BDSM style that is hotter, more fun, and more powerful for all partners in a dynamic.

This series welcomes all genders, orientations, and dynamic styles. This workshop is designed for newcomers to BDSM, but is open to anyone who wants new tools to improve their BDSM communications.

Our presenter, Miriam Green, has been in the public kink scene for over one dozen years in the Austin, Houston and San Francisco scenes. They teach a series of KINK 101 classes on the SF kink community, BDSM negotiations and dating while kinky. They also are the owner of Wicked Grounds, San Francisco's first and only kink cafe & boutique.

Come with a partner, by yourself, or with a party of all of your best friends. Unity (usually 6-8pm) will be CANCELLED this week and will be resuming next month on August 12th.

• Monday, July 9th: Foundations Office Hours will be from 6-6:30pm. The Society of Janus Newcomers Social will be meeting promptly at 7pm for a kink scene orientation, dungeon discussion, and Q&A session! This event is specifically for folks new to the scene, or new to the SF scene.

• Tuesday, July 10th: The Kinky Entrepreneurs Co-Working Hours will be meeting from 1-5pm to provide a space for productive work with like-minded kinksters. Come learn more about BAKBA (Bay Area Kinky Business Alliance) and get shit done! (You don’t need to be in BAKBA to participate in this event.) In the evening, the Bay Area Rope Club (BARC)will be hosting their weekly Tuesday pre-event meetup at the cafe from 6-7pm. BARC is a combination of skillshare, presentations, play-time, & social goodness, and is a great place to get started with rope or develop pre-existing skills! After BARC, Stampede will be meeting in the back room from 8-9:30pm for human pets, their handlers, and lovers of pet-play!

• Wednesday, July 11th: After a long run, the well-loved TNG FemDom Munch will be retiring. They will not be meeting this month, or for the foreseeable future. Thank you so much for the founders, and for Minow, the most recent host, for the hard work and community building you’ve all done! Tonight, join the Cat Club for Bondage-A-Go-Go: Heavy Petting Zoo for a wonderful animal romp. Remember, if you spend $10 or more on food and drink at Wicked Grounds before BAGG, you get discounted entry to the club! Just ask your barista for a stamped receipt.

• Thursday, July 12th: The back room will be reserved from 6-8pm for an event. In the front, the Sex Magick Coffee Social will be meeting from 7-9pm. This informal social is open to anyone who is interested in the intersection of magic(k) and sexuality, at all levels of experience. Reclaiming, OTO, A.'.A.'., Chaos Magickians, F(a)eri(e) traditions, BLW, Wicca, and many other traditions include sexual magick and mysteries as part of the magickal practice. We will be talking about magic(k) broadly, and all practitioners from all traditions (or none!) are welcome.

• Saturday, July 14th: The Milk Munch will be meeting from 11:30am-1:30pm for folks who love any and all forms of erotic lactation. Please keep in mind that, as a food service establishment, no lactation play is allowed in the cafe, but remember that mentioning the munch will get you 10% off of our delicious milkshakes. At night, the Little’s Lock-in will start at 8pm and go all night (until 9:30am, to be exact) for LOTS of fun!

• Sunday, July 15th: Tonight in the back of the cafe, the mats will be laid out for a puppy romp at Bring Your Human Animal Night! From 7-9pm, join all manner of human animals for wrestling, discussion, and to learn more about the SF K9 Unit.

All events are open to any Wicked Grounds customer, at any level of kink/BDSM experience. We hope you'll come out and learn more about the extremely diverse SF kink community! Low on funds, and need a safe space? Ask your barista about redeeming a support coffee (or tea, lemonade, etc.), pre-paid by another friendly member of our community.
