KAMALA DEVI, our keynote speaker, leads rituals, sacred snuggle parties and poly relationship agreements training with a stand-up comedy about the poly community by Michael McClure. Here’s some of what Kamala Devi and Michael McClure have for us at the conference:
Kamala Devi’s Keynote: IT TAKES A TRIBE TO BE POLY!
You can’t be Poly in a vacuum. We all need community. Whether it’s virtual, event based or an immersive intentional living arrangement, it takes a tribe to create an alternative community. San Diego has an abundant and diverse Tantra/poly community that knows how to work and play well with others. Kamala Devi is excited to share practical tribal technologies for personal growth as well as planetary evolution. She will share about poly communities around the globe as well as her top ten power tools to build community wherever you are, in order to expand your experience of l truth, freedom and Love.
RELATIONSHIP AGREEMENTS–Kamala Devi’s experiential teaching presentation
Communication techniques, tips and trips that’ve helped Kamala Devi and Michael negotiate relationship agreements over the last ten years with over ten lovers all at once. Learn to negotiate your needs and co-create extramarital bliss
SACRED SNUGGLE PARTY
This part of the Conference is a sweet sensual event facilitated by Kamala Devi. We gather to flirt, touch, massage, run Tantric energy, play, laugh, cry, and share intimacy, vulnerability or whatever else spontaneously arises. Relax and connect with like-minded people. This is a laboratory to practice expressing what feels good and what doesn’t, asking to get your needs met, setting boundaries, and perhaps even overcoming rejection!
