Jess Kramer and Roxie Jane Hunt will offer a 2 part introductory series to the Wheel of Consent- offered in two 3-hour evening classes in South Seattle. Registering for this class means you have registered for both evenings of the class. This class is best-suited for beginners who desire to learn the basic foundations, framework and practices of the Wheel of Consent.
The Wheel of Consent Intro class offers somatic practices of receiving and giving, skills for communicating and negotiating desires and limits for more ease and satisfaction in personal and professional relationships, and tools for discerning our embodied YES’s and NO’s.
This introductory workshop is for people who:

Are looking for experiences of relating that are both connected and boundaried.

When natural disaster comes along, life takes a journey that often disconnects people from their sense of agency, right to consent, and ability to feel safe and settled. We hope to offer a workshop that allows people to connect (re-connect) with each other and a sense of agency, rest, and well-being.

The Wheel of Consent was created in the context of people working with consensual touch. It turns out, these practices apply far beyond touch, intimacy, and sex. People engaging in these practices seem to find endless value that applies to multiple areas of life - from work, feelings of safety and trust, to expanding sense of enjoyment and pleasure including and beyond sex and eroticism, to insight into power dynamics and how to find more freedom and agency.
The Wheel of Consent has been developed by Dr. Betty Martin who is a former Chiropractor and currently a sex and intimacy coach, sacred intimate and sexological bodyworker. Check out her free video resources on her website: bettymartin.org
