Saturday 15th & Sunday 16th August 2026 – Bournemouth, BH1
Ever feel like you don’t have the time to properly get into your Dom/sub dynamic? Perhaps you keep talking about starting but never get around to it? Does it currently feel like it will always be a fantasy but never a reality?
How about an entire 2 days dedicated to building your ideal D/s Dynamic?
Join us at the Sub in the City Studio for this 2-day intensive as we explore experiential workshops dedicated to supporting you in building a power exchange that really works for you.
This weekend will be jam packed full of educational and experiential classes and workshops for you to really step into your Dom/subspace and co-create something unique to you.
This weekend is for couples or Dom/sub duos who are consciously exploring power exchange dynamics and wish to deepen their exploration.
We welcome all experience levels, whether you’re just dipping your toes into the world of kink for the first time, or you’ve been exploring for a while, this weekend is designed to help you connect, communicate, explore and play in a fully immersive environment without the outside noise of every day life.
What to Expect
Saturday
We will kick off the weekend on Saturday morning with an opening cacao ceremony – our approach to kink is a conscious one, and this will allow us to set the scene and expectations for what will be an immersive weekend.
We’ll then dive into understanding what authentic Dominance and submission looks like to you – not what you think it should be, not what you see in the movies or porn, but what feels good and real for you. This is also the time to explore what your biggest challenges are, where there might be any lingering resistance, and how to feel confident in communicating your desires to each other so you can build something that sets your souls on fire!
Next, we lay the foundations for the fun part – building your ultimate kinky scene! Whether you already have exciting playtime, or you’re stuck for inspiration, we’ll show you how to think outside the box when it comes to planning spicy scenes for play, and then guide you to create your own!
Once you’re feeling warmed up, we’ll dive into some practical skills sessions, exploring Impact and Sensation Play. Whatever sensations you enjoy, this session is about understanding how to play with pain and pleasure in an erotic way that feels delicious for both of you. Watch a detailed live demo with Master Carlos and get hands-on guidance with a variety of tools that will invite you to get out of your head and into your body and really surrender.
Saturday night you’ll be welcomed back to the Dungeon for our evening dungeon party where you can mix and mingle with other community members. Have a drink and a chat, and have the freedom to explore the dungeon further and practice what you’ve learnt that day. This evening event is a social and kink play only, it is not a sex party.
Sunday
On Sunday, we dive into even more workshops to continue to build upon your dynamic, starting with creating rules, rituals and structure that are most suited to your style of Dominance and submission. Whether you see your dynamic as something you do in the bedroom only, or you’re looking to live it 24/7, this workshop will help you map out structure that feels realistic to your lifestyle and builds consistency.
We’ll then give you some extra practical skills as our resident rope facilitator Talulah Teal will show you how you can use rope bondage to enhance your D/s scenes. You’ll be shown how to tie safely and in a way that explores rope as a sensation tool as much as a restraint tool.
Adding this skill to your repertoire will give you a variety of different options to explore when it comes to building exciting BDSM Scenes. You’ll have some free time to explore these new skills and layer in everything else you’ve learnt too.
As the weekend begins to draw to a close, we’ll start to wind down with an Aftercare workshop and session with our resident facilitator Alice Nan – we’ll explore what aftercare looks like and means to you, so you can continue to build your dynamic in a safe and nourishing way.
We’ll end with a closing circle and Q&A to set you up for success when you go home.
This weekend is limited to a maximum of 10 couples to ensure you get dedicated time and support.
