Misfits in Touch+ a cozy workshop on sensual curiosity

What is Misfits in Touch+ ?
A clothed, consent-based space where platonic connection meets sensual curiosity. This offering is a warm, next-level invitation for anyone who’s done Misfits in Touch or other consent-based workshops (i.e cuddle class) and feels ready to explore what happens when connection carries a little more spark.

We stay grounded through breath, presence, and clear boundaries. Sensual touch, kissing, and flirtation are welcome—with enthusiastic, verbal consent only. This is not a play party. Sexual touch, hands under clothing, or any form of boundary-pushing are not permitted.

Here, we practice noticing when sensuality begins to shift into sexual energy—and learn how to breathe, slow down, and stay present with it.  It’s not about avoiding intensity, but about expanding your capacity to be with it without needing to escalate. We practice noticing the rise, honoring our “yes,” and respecting the sacredness of “not yet” or “no.”

 All bodies, identities, and nervous systems are welcome. 💜

Who Can Attend Misfits in Touch+
To join, we ask that you’ve attended at least one Misfits in Touch workshop or another consent-based platonic touch class (like a Cuddle Class or similar). This helps us maintain a shared foundation of communication, emotional presence, and respect for boundaries. If you're unsure whether your past experience qualifies, feel free to reach out. We're happy to chat.
