Agreements can be one of the most essential but equally difficult parts of open relationships. While finding agreements about how we want to relate to each other, which promises and expectations we bring into our relationship is part of almost every relationship, open relationships include the challenge of affecting and navigating new dates, lovers and relationships.

Exploring what agreements can look like for us, which boundaries and needs we might bring into our relationship(s) and how we can recognize them as such, can be a helpful and important way to navigate our love lifes.

In this workshop you will:

Get the chance to take a closer look at what makes agreements, rules, boundaries and needs different from each other

discover how good agreements can look like for you and what might be important to consider

Make a difference between your own needs and the needs of your relationship

Learn tools on how to identify what your needs around agreements might be

Learn strategies on how to heal from hurt and/or betrayal from broken relationships

There will be room for your experiences and space to share what worked and what didn’t work for you in the past

More Information

Who is this event for?
+

LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.

Friends describe people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer space and its marginalized community.

When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone's self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people's chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender-straight privileges.

Friends don't have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all proactively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.

How do I get access to the live class?
+

After your successful ticket purchase, you will be sent an email with the Zoom login data for this event. If you do not receive it, message us with your order number so we can send it again. Some email services "disappear" our messages so please check if you received our login data email.

How do I get access to the recording?
+

If this session includes a recording you can obtain it by simply purchasing a ticket. You will automatically get access to the live class and the recording as they come in a package. The recording login data will be sent out 24–48h after the live event and will be available for 14 days after the live event. Please note these classes are places for experience, not for instruction. Nothing here is tested or graded — only perceived, felt, and shared. All offerings are invitations to reflect — no curriculum, no exam, no training. Recordings exist solely to support personal integration and are available only for a limited time.

Do I need to buy tickets for everyone watching even though we use the same computer?
+

Yes, because you are paying for the knowledge our facilitators distribute, not for the access to Zoom itself. We kindly ask you to respect that and pay accordingly.
