Longing for deeper connection and authentic, safe touch?
The Original Cuddle Workshop is a gentle, playful, and powerful exploration of how we relate to boundaries, consent, and nurturing human touch. In this workshop, you’ll experience how cuddles can be healing, comforting, and connecting — without pressure, expectation, or hidden agendas.
Through carefully guided exercises, you’ll learn:
✨ How to clearly communicate your needs and limits
✨ How to say “no” with confidence — and hear a “no” without taking it personally
✨ How to give and receive safe, consensual touch
✨ How to relax and unwind into nourishing connection
Expect a combination of solo reflection, pair work, and group exercises that build skills for healthy relating — all in a warm, welcoming, and non-sexual setting.
This workshop is designed for all genders, sexualities, and relationship styles. You can join on your own, with a partner, or with a friend. Witnessing is always valid participation — there is never any obligation to cuddle, and you can choose your level of engagement moment by moment.
🏳️ Who is this for?
✅ Those new to consent-based spaces
✅ People wanting to explore their boundaries in a safe container
✅ Anyone who craves mindful, heart-centered connection
✅ Folks of all bodies, backgrounds, and relationship structures
