Meet Dorte!
All of Dorte’s work is aimed at awakening your curiosity and creativity and this workshop will be a detailed exploration of the face and its sensual potential in BDSM play.
The face is the locus of many of our senses, and playing with the engagement and restriction of these senses can be profound in a scene involving consensual power exchange.
In this workshop the Theatre of the Mind – as BDSM by some is called- will be working its magick right in your face!
Dorte is a sex educator, psychotherapist specializing in BDSM and non-monogamous relationships, a stage and costume designer, and an artist. She has also worked as a sexuality consultant for theatre companies and film productions. As of spring 2024, she is part of the founding group for House of Play, a new space for conscious and alternative sexuality in Copenhagen.
Meet Steffi & Mike!
Get ready to embark on an adventure with Kinky Explorer, where Steffi (she/they) and Mike(he/him) invite you to dive into the world of kink and conscious BDSM.
With years of experience, they bring a down-to-earth approach to their workshops, blending expertise with warmth, humor, and authenticity.
They use their personal experiences from years of playing to teach only what they have tried and tested themselves. They believe that kink is more than just tools—it’s about connection, communication, and mutual respect.
The core subject in all their workshops is the co-creation of scenes that are equally fulfilling for both tops and bottoms, ensuring that everyone feels empowered to explore their desires and limits at their own pace and choice.
As a team, Steffi and Mike are dedicated to guiding and supporting their participants to navigate the complexities of BDSM with more clarity and empathy.
With Kinky Explorer, Steffi and Mike aim to establish a community of like-minded adventurers, offering a place to learn, grow, and connect together.
So come join us, and let’s explore together!
Steffi and Mike will be presenting ‘Erotic Fireplay’ and ‘Ecstatic Flogging’ at Taboo Festival 2025.
