In the first part of this workshop, we will engage in hands-on partner work exploring the tactile sensations of our speech organ, the mouth. This can be called oral mapping, as it involves thoroughly feeling, exploring, and massaging the entire mouth region, both inside and out, without missing a single centimeter. By surrendering to these exploratory and unintentional touches, we can discover and get to know our mouth in a new and different way. It is not unlikely that some people will find this quite pleasurable. It is always relaxing and insightful. Who has ever engaged with this body opening in this way before?
The second part takes us to the diverse expressiveness of our mouths. In various playful exercises, we experiment with noises and sounds, with words, sentences, and narratives, alone, in pairs, and in groups, always searching for the pleasure and joy in daring to do it, enjoying it, and cultivating it. Sometimes quite an experiment, towards the end the whole thing turns into a fine ritual in the intoxication of noises and voices, silence and listening.
Workshop participants have the opportunity to take part in a play party after the course, starting at around 8:30 p.m., which will take place in the same premises. More information will be provided after registering for the course.

NOTES ON THE EVENT
The aims of our events are to learn together as a group and to support joint processes as well as personal development. Couples and all other types of partnerships or constellations are welcome, but you should be aware and open to the fact that the courses are not designed as partnership experiences and that we address each person as an individual. For example, in order to include all participants equally, we usually work with random partner combinations in the exercises. This means that there will be both the same and different gender combinations. Participants should generally be open to working with any person and any body. Exceptions can be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Gender identity, sexual orientation, age or membership of often marginalized groups such as BBIPoC, migrants, refugees, LGBTQIA*, disabled people, etc. are not criteria when registering and selecting participants. This means that, in principle, everyone is equally welcome and we endeavor to do justice to the respective constellation and different needs, but our resources are limited. If you have any questions in this regard, please contact us.
We expect you to be careful, communicative, consent-oriented and mindful, and we encourage you to respect your own boundaries and self-responsibility.
Hate speech will not be tolerated. Please bring "candy speech".
We reserve the right to ask participants to leave the workshop should their behavior be hurtful or too problematic, and we reserve the right to do so without explanation - although we will likely try to explain. Workshop fees would then be refunded in full. Further claims are then excluded.
