(AN)OTHER ORGY
"A festival with unrestrained debauchery", says the Duden, "nocturnal Bacchus celebration; sacred act; mystical service; cultic secret meeting at night", says the etymology, "debauchery, revelry, licentiousness; (elevated) excess, excessiveness", says the synonym dictionary, "communal acts that deliberately violate morals", says the Wikipedia entry. An orgy! So legendary and yet so simply beautiful, or also quite crude. In any case, our cultural unconscious is full of nebulous ideas about what an orgy can be. Not for nothing is it on the bucket list for many. Wait no longer! Our three-day...
WINTA BONDAGE JAM ZURICH - SHIBARI IM SIHL13 - with Newbie Intro
Rope Bondage ist für alle da!
Allerdings ist das bei unserer gewöhnlichen Bondage Jam bisher nicht unbedingt der Fall gewesen, denn oft läuft dort so manches dann halt doch recht konventionell und heteronormativ – und das passt nun ganz bestimmt nicht für alle.
Deshalb gibt es nun also die FINTA BONDAGE JAM!
FINTA steht für "Female, Inter, Nonbinary, Trans, Agender" und bei dieser besonderen Jam geht es in erster Linie darum einen Raum zu schaffen, in dem als FINTA sich identifizierende Menschen, einfach unter sich sein können. Im Grunde ist es also ganz einfach: Menschen, die sich nicht als FINTA begreifen, bleiben der Veranstaltung bitte fern.
FELIX RUCKERT aka the princess: MY BEAUTIFUL SEX LIFE
This event is a workshop, performance art, and a play space, all in one. The event is part of Felix's research on the creation of "Magical Spaces": you are invited to come and co-create a touching and exciting group experience, which will also be spectacularly beautiful to observe if you prefer to stay on the sidelines—which is absolutely possible! The princess offers you an opportunity to meet yourself and others on a profoundly human level, letting go of shame...

SHIBARI BASICS – FLOORWORK
Im Mittelpunkt dieses Workshops stehen die Grundlagen des Fesselns mit Seilen im japanischen Stil. Neben Basis- und Improvisationstechniken, klassischen Mustern und den unterschiedlichen Sicherheitsaspekten befassen wir uns auch mit Körperbewusstsein und Haltung, sowie mit der Interaktion und Kommunikation zwischen den Partnern. Dabei entdecken wir, wie Fesselnde und Gefesselte ihre Begegnung vielfältig gestalten können, im vertrauensvollen Spiel mit Macht und Unterwerfung, in empathischer Kommunikation und gegenseitiger Hingabe, in tiefer Verbindung und Intensität. Shibari, bzw. Kinbaku, wie die japanische Seilbondage auch…

KINKY LOMI – AN EDGY FUSION
Surrendering into loving hands. Into their warm, soothing touch. Broad flowing strokes over and under your whole body. Like being embraced by the ocean’s swirling waves and its silent depths. Feeling grounded. Deeply touched. And then: Smack! The cheeky sensation of a hand spanking a muscle. Its vibrations radiating in your bones. The tingling afterwards. Feeling vitalized. The mind gets carried away by this mingling of sensations. When two worlds meet… Lomi-inspired sensual massage and the world of kinky BDSM at first seem to be full of contrasts. Kink involves consensually inducing pain and…
