From 29 December to 1 January, Beata is organizing a special Touch&Play variant at the beautiful seminar location in the countryside in Drawehn - which is between Berlin and Hamburg.

After the FLINTA* orgy at the Ewaldshof, one person wrote a testimonial! "I was immediately curious when I heard about it. And of course I was a bit shy: What can I expect? What is expected of me?

Did you actually see that there was an interview with Beata in the FAZ Quarterly? "The view of sexuality in many parts of society has changed radically. We present five women who have made a profession out of it." Among them...
As a commemorative publication for the cultural scientist Prof. Dr. Iris Därmann, who works on sadism, gift theories, aesthetics and other exciting fields of research that are equally important to us, the volume "Empfangen" has just been published by DeGruyter Verlag, in which Beata was involved with other editors.
