Do you want to feel more comfortable in your power, more confident taking the lead, and better able to adapt your state to what's unfolding in front of you?
POWER & PRESENCE is an embodiment-focused training course for people interested in exploring Ethical Dominance.
Some people are drawn to this training because they want to engage in D/s dynamics in safe(r) ways. Others come to build a healthier relationship with power in their lives more broadly.
The way I see it is that kink is a tool through which we can all (Dom/mes and subs alike) delve into our relationship with power. This kind of exploration has the potential to transform us in ways we might not expect, and this course will prepare you to do this ethically and authentically.

The Course
This is a live, online course delivered via Zoom.
This course is the outcome of two decades on my own journey around this, from people pleaser to Professional Dominant, AND from working with hundreds of people as they consciously explore kink. I share openly about my own personal (good, bad, and ugly) experiences with power, how non-kinky parts of my life have influenced me greatly, and the challenges of this work that nobody told me about.
I believe we ALL have the capability to step into Dominance in a way that is authentic. If you don't feel that you fit into the box of a stereotypical Dom or Dominatrix, don't let that hold you back (I don't fit into that box either!) The world needs more people who can wield power responsibly in their own unique way.
My style of Dominance draws upon what’s already within me - you might like to think of these as traits, archetypes, or parts.
The aim is to support you in becoming a whole, integrated human rather than simply teaching the “technical skills” of kink. It's less about the activities we do and more about having the ability to change our own state and invite others to do the same through our presence, embodiment, and language.
The structure is designed to provide ongoing support as you learn to embrace and integrate the different parts of yourself that might be called upon to empower you.
My work is influenced by the Wheel of Consent, the Right Use of Power, conscious kink frameworks, embodied ethics, Jungian psychology, some aspects of Sexological Bodywork, the DeVinery Method for understanding sexual fantasies, and many skills that I've been taught and have gone on to develop, such as verbal domination.
Learning happens through a combination of theory, embodied enquiries, core skills practice, demonstrations, and group sharing.
At the heart of this course is the COMMUNITY - it's about learning and practicing together, and sharing our own experiences so that we can see we are not alone in the challenges we might have around power. It is a powerful space to be in, and I can't wait to explore with you on this next journey💜

What we'll cover
THIS IS ABOUT EMPOWERING YOU SO THAT YOU, IN TURN, CAN CAN CREATE POWERFUL EXPERIENCES FOR OTHERS ✨
Some of the topics covered include:
-
POWER - what it is, what gets in the way of us stepping into power, why power dynamics are necessary, and how power alters us
-
The role, responsibilities, and fundamental skills of Dominance
-
Submission - why do people want to submit and what do they get out of it, the paradox of submissiveness and how people navigate this (often without realising), and why we should be aiming for all subs to be empowered
-
My proprietary framework for Dominance that enables ANYONE to step into this role
-
Psychological Domination - the deeper meaning of Dominance, connecting to a sub's psyche, how to think like a Dom/me
-
Shadow play and the vulnerability of both sides
-
Setting the scene - ways into a D/s scene
-
Verbal Domination
-
The building blocks of a great scene to create tension and excitement, make scenes meaningful, and modulate intensity
And much, much more! You'll come away with high-level theory and framework, plus a bunch of skills and scene elements that you can take straight into your play. There will be plenty of opportunities throughout for you to have embodied experiences of power - through solo exercises and practice time with your peers.
What's included
-
TEN ONLINE GROUP SESSIONS via Zoom. These are 2 hours long and each focuses on a different topic, with space to ask questions and share experiences.
-
Weekly home practices - you will receive weekly prompts for research, self-reflection, or practical exercises, which will deeply enrich your learning.
-
Our POWER & PRESENCE Community - you will have the option to join a private group chat with other participants on Telegram where you can share the outcomes of your weekly home practice, receive input from me and your other peers, build connections with others, and find people to practice with!
There will also be an option to add on extra 1-to-1 sessions with me online or in-person at a discounted rate while the course is running, as past participants have found these helpful.

Participant Feedback
Prerequisites
I love that people are drawn to this training from all different kinds of backgrounds - from kink newbies to Pro Dommes with decades of experience.
This particular course is designed for those who already have some basic knowledge about kink and are curious about exploring power play ethically.
To ensure that everyone shares the same foundational knowledge as we dive deep into our relationship with and expressions of power, I am only accepting participants onto this course if they have already completed the Getting into (Ethical) Kink course OR equivalent training e.g. some courses from The Kinky Classroom, Wheel of Consent, workshops on communication and negotiation skills, and understanding of implicit power dynamics.
If you haven't completed the intro course or worked with me directly, please contact me for an intro call and we can figure out if this is suitable.
