About Misfits in Touch - a cozy practice in platonic intimacy, connection & consent
Welcome to a guided space where Misfits and the Curious-Hearted come to slow down and tune in.

Why the name change from “Cuddle Class”?
While cuddling remains one of the beautiful practices we explore, this offering has always been about more than that. It’s a space to practice consent, connection, and embodied communication—skills essential for open-hearted living and relating.
The new name, Misfits in Touch, reflects the depth and intentionality behind our work together. For long-time community members, it’s still the same safe, cozy vibe you know—just with a name that fits us better.
