This training is Offered to Sexologists, s*x coaches, s.therapists, s*x workers, and anyone passionate about the educational and therapeutic aspects of BDSM.

This workshop gives you the tools, language, structure, and experiential understanding to meet them there, without overstepping your scope or diluting your ethics. We cover consent architecture, erotic authority, nervous system awareness, negotiation skills, aftercare, and the emotional intelligence required to hold power responsibly. You will leave not only more knowledgeable, but more confident in your presence and leadership.

Your Facilitator:
Shelby Devlin (she/her) is a BDSM coach and kink educator with two decades of experience, a Master’s in Sexuality Studies, and an advanced certification in the Somatica® Method.
